Review of Halloween (1978) by Timone — 24 Oct 2018

All right, for memorable killers in horror history such as Freddy Krueger in The Nightmare of Elm Street, Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th and Leatherface in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, this time only one killer is a threat to those who comes in his way, Michael Myers.

For John Carpenter directing Halloween. He is the master of horror and he will do anything to scare the audience. In 1963, six-year-old Michael Myers killed his older sister, Judith Myers with a kitchen knife.

Fifteen years later, on October 30, 1978, five days after the film itself has released, (Oh my, God, this is going to happen!), Dr. Sam Loomis played by Donald Pleasence, can sense that Michael is in Haddonfield and he knows that he's going to kill people on Halloween night and do anything to track Michael Myers down.

And that's all I can say it. It's all Michael Myers is doing is killing people. I'm being dying to review this movie in October because it's the best time for Halloween. Children getting treats from people, scaring them with costumes, best time for kids on Halloween.

This is practically Jamie Lee Curtis's first film debut and in this one she plays Laurie Strode. Some people considers Jamie a scream queen cause what else she appears in various horror films. Now she appears in the new Halloween film which is actually a direct sequel to the original ignoring all the following sequels in existence.

Damn. I was actually looking forward to seeing the 1981 sequel but that never happened. You just can't stop thinking about all the sequels of Halloween because they already existed. Well, to be fair, I haven't watched any of the sequels so I guess I'll have to wait.

With this one, I love it. It has great characters including Michael Myers, good scares and a memorable score by John Carpenter. I didn't know he can conduct. It is my favourite horror film to date and I will watch it every night including on Halloween in October and I hope you have a Happy Halloween.

It will give you nightmares when you think about it and you just want to hide under your blankets. OK, go to your room, kids. Go on, up you go.
