Review of Halloween (1978) by Gta3Lcpd — 24 Oct 2016
One of the very best horror movies I've ever seen. The rest of the series kind of sucks ass, with the exception of Halloween II (1981), but in spite of that, Halloween is just freaking awesome! It's got an overall dark and creepy atmosphere, and leaves you feeling unsettled, with intense and suspenseful moments.
It's also one of the few movies that effectively scares you, and it does a damn fine job of it. The story and characters are great, but what just might be my very favorite thing is the music. The music is what really ups the nostalgic value for me.
Like, I have a scale of how strong the nostalgia is: LOW, MODERATE, HIGH, and AGGRESSIVE, and it's definitely aggressive, mainly due to the music, otherwise, it would only verge on high for me. Anyway, the point is, Halloween is arguably one of the best scary movies ever made, and maybe even one of the best ever in general.
So, this Halloween, watch Halloween for a good scary movie, turn down the lights, and prepare to yell, **** you!" to anything that moves, because Halloween will likely make you jumpy.
