Being such a big film fan, god only knows why i never saw this earlier. I had already seen 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' and 'Friday the 13th', and was trying to fit in time to see 'Halloween'. Eventually, in 2008, i managed to witness the experience of 'Halloween'. A good horror movie can be hard to create. It's all about getting the right delivery of scares. 'Halloween' does not disappoint. The movie doesn't rely on blood and gore. As a matter of fact, there's hardly any blood is this movie at all. The scare mainly focuses on the suspense factor. Thie numerous appearances of his shadows, causes you to wait for the moment *it* happens. All the young cast do very well, with Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Pleasence also creating two iconic characters. Including Michael Myers, these three iconic figures help keep 'Halloween' alive for a long, long time.
