Posted Oct 28, 2005 - One great movie of its kind. I certainly was horrified to see it from beginning to end. Defintely a classic that many horror fans would like to see over and over again. Out of all of the Halloween series, this is the best. Will Michael ever be stopped?

Posted Nov 28, 2005 - This is a pretty darn good thriller.It's not really horror.The only thing that would make this film horror is Michael being as scary and inhuman as he was,and not dying.The rest is suspense!!!I love the suspenseful music at the beginning!!!Basically,this movie rocks!!!

Posted Oct 5, 2005 - genuinely scary - the fact that it was somewhat believable and dwelt in things (babysitting) and places (suburbia) that we like to see as pure and safe made it all the more frightening

Posted Sep 12, 2005 - Was first released in the summer of '78 at all drive-in movie theaters nationwide. Scared the living dogsh*t out of everyone thereby making it an instant classic. Well done and well made. As most people know, John Carpenter did this one and had nothing to do with the other 8 Halloweens that would come out in the next 25 years or so. You can tell the difference. I still have the 20th anniversary t-shirt they issued back in 1998.

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Posted Jul 12, 2003 - I've never understood what Mike Myers' problem was, but I bought the premise that he's evil incarnate hook line & sinker. I also fell for his inability to die - a silly premise, but you believe it in this movie. Frankly, I don't know why the movie works - maybe that awesome, simple sequenced music score, the director's use of complementary colors (orange & blue), his use of suburbia as a backdrop, the fact that there are no parents anywhere around after Michael shows up on the scene - I thought the quick view of Michael under the mask wasn't necessary, but that's my only gripe. of course this one is the 1st modern slasher film (really Psycho is the 1st - compare the 2 and you'll see where Halloween's influence comes from. I'll give you a hint: think swinging light bulb). Why did Michael dress as a ghost, why the RIP headstone, why did he seem like a collector when he kills the only guy, why is he so pissed off at women, and why he won't die - I think part of the movie's effect is all these unanswered questions. Is he dead? Where did he go? Is he hiding near you?

Posted Aug 2, 2003 - You know, it's just not that good. My father built up Halloween so much during my life, that I expected it to be good. In reality, it's just a low budget horror flick. I was completely disappointed with Jamie Lee Curtis, and she was the only actor in the movie. Extremely formulaic bad predictable horror.

Posted Oct 8, 2001 - This has to be the worst horror movie I've ever seen! I wasn't scared once, I didn't care about any of the characters and the killer was laughable. I was just sitting there thinking: "Is this it? Is this considered to be one of the greatest ever?" When nothing NOTHING interesting ever happened. Nope I'd rather watch The Dentist 2 again.
