"THE BEST ORIGINAL AROUND"

Rating: Null/10 (7 January 1999)

John Carpenter's Halloween is the best horror film I've ever seen. Never before has there been a movie to keep the storyline of their characters the same throughout the entire series ( Halloween 3 being the exception). Despite having a budget of a little over $300,000 this movie is worth watching over and over again. You can never get enough of Mr. Carpenter's opening theme music to this 1978 classic. For those who thought Scream would be the greatest horror film of all time think again. Wes Craven couldn't even begin to touch this movie. For those who followed the sequels ( even when they were not too hot ) you relize that this movie never lets up. Even after 20 years you still get that scary feeling you did when you first saw it. To top it all off the final sequel to the series ( Halloween H20 ) won't disappoint you. Here you have the main two characters from the original battling it out for what you hope is the final time. Until the horror industry can clean up its act and make decent sequels to their films make mine "Halloween."
