Out-dated in 2018 but still a decent movie!

Rating: 7/10 (12 October 2018)

Well, let me start off by saying that I only really watched this because I wanted to get some context for the 2018 sequel of 'Halloween'. Do I regret watching this movie in 2018? The short answer is no I don't. You can tell that movies nowadays and even TV Shows of the same genre have taken a lot of inspiration from the formula and story of this movie. Look at Friday the 13th, Stranger Things, Don't Breath and more. All of these in some way have taken a fair amount of inspiration from this movie. The problem in watching this movie in 2018 though is simply that it is out-dated. Whether it's the acting, scenery, music and basically anything else but that's to be expected. If you go into this movie thinking you're going to watch something similar to the movies nowadays, you'll be disappointed. This is a movie you watch and shouldn't take too seriously, watch with a few friends and you'll most likely get a laugh out of it. It's a classic movie and honestly if you're a fan of the genre, you should acquaint yourself with it.
