I'd say The Shining is more known than Jack Torrance is. :P

Not to say that Jack Torrance is unknown, but really, just because The Shining is huge, which I definitely know it is, doesn't neceessarily mean that Jack Torrance is just as big. There is the whole "Here's Johnny" scene with him axing through a door, which really helps Jack's popularity with the movie, but he's not really saying his own name, so that really doesn't help get his name out there, lol. I doubt a lot of people who know of the movie know his actual name without having watched the movie or read the book.

Over all, as a character, I think Jack Torrance is on the same level as Carrie.
