Halloween: The night he came homE

Rating: Null/10 (9 August 1999)

This movie is one of the best horror flms out there. Next to Psycho, this is the best psychological slasher. Every one after was just corny, badly acted, TOO gory, and/or wasn't even scary, with the exception of a couple of Friday the 13th films(at least they had scary eerie moments, but the terrible acting and non-plots were still apparent.) But Halloween paved the way for todays supposedly horror films.
Actually I must say that being 18, i DID like Scream, but Halloween keeps its throne as the most scary, erie, chilling REAL horror film ever made! Watching this and then watching Scream, u can see the similarities and differences of the two. However more differences, which could be good or bad. Scream doesn't know how to chill you or scare you like Halloween. But what made scream good was the fact that it knows the genre and therefore knows how to satirize it and still remain entertaining. Halloween, on the other hand, is almost pure terror, erieness, and it SCARES you, thanks to a solid direction under Carpenter and production under Debrah Hill and Moustafa Akkad, and the music by Carpentar also helps a WHOLE LOT. Oh, and don't forget Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Pleasnce performances, which are really good. All those elements make Halloween good, scary fun all the way.
Memorable scene : A couple of boys trick or treating, dare each other to go inside the Myers house. The audience is thinking "oh on, the poor boys are going to get it" Then all of a sudden, Pleasance speaks at them from behind the bushes, and scares the boys s***less.
That scene was hilarious. ;)
