Around this time of year I sometimes find myself watching The Shining. This analysis is interesting. I'm not sure if it really rises to the level of being the hidden meaning, or if it was intended to work subconsciously on a visual level to activate that repressed complex of guilt, fear, and hate. The site has a synopsis and some other thoughts about the duality motif in the film.
Update: I think Kubrick was definitely conscious of the symbology mentioned above, and was making meanings on many levels, as artists like him do.
