A CLASSIC HORROR MASTERPIECE & MY INTRODUCTION TO HORROR

Rating: 10/10 (10 August 2018)

Of course EVERYONE knows John Carpenters HALLOWEEN is an absolute CLASSIC Horror/slasher/
Thriller so no need to talk about the plot or story everyone already knows.
This was one of the first Horror movies i ever saw when i was way too young to really watch it lol but hey i loved it & watched it on t.v every time it was on at Halloween!!! Also had it on video & watched it loads but also i loved The Fog as much & remember both being played alot in my house by my mum so got know the music & atmosphere & the same with the excellent Halloween 3:season of the witch another one i grew up with & loved the creepy music & atmosphere & like The Fog it introduced me to the legend TOM ATKINS!!! love those movies.
I think the fog is a horror CLASSIC too it's just as good but both absolute CLASSIC films!!!
Halloween also introduced me to the excellent Jamie lee curtis & Donald Pleasance!!!
Yes Halloween was a great introduction to Horror & one that is so rewatchable. A nostalgic CLASSIC & still one the greatest films ever MADE.
The Halloween franchise is abit of a mess,the only good films are of course the original classic,the excellent Halloween 2 (1981),the underrated Halloween 3:season of the witch,the fun Halloween 4:The return of Michael Myers,the excellent Halloween H20 & Rob zombies Reboot & sequel are both excellent films!!! But Halloween '78 is "THE" movie that properly introduced me to the Horror genre & i became a massive fan since & it was tradition to watch this classic on vhs every Halloween or if it was on t.v i would watch it so yeah like most fans this 70's CLASSIC means alot to alot of people & especially Horror fans.
My love for the Horror genre grew thanks to this 1978 CLASSIC & Jaws & The Fog & H3 season of the witch & Gremlins 1&2 & Ghostbusters 1&2 all these childhood greats helped shape my absolute love for Horror!!!
