Halloween review: Part 1

Rating: 9/10 (2 November 2013)

I'm not knocking every other slasher movie. It's just that not a lot of slasher movies have any interesting ideas. Some are just around to show blood and gore. Halloween is a different type of movie where it didn't rely on special effects, blood and gore, etc. It relied more on suspense and a creepy atmosphere. There is a few problems. Some scenes are slow and the dialog in some parts is a bit weird, but by the last 45 to 50 Min's the movie picks up. We all know about the killer Michael Myers. I'm one of those people though who believed that he should have stayed dead at 2. That's what I like about Halloween. The movie leaves off with a cliffhanger and ends the story in Halloween II. Halloween 3 tried to take the series in a different direction. Which i liked that idea. But due to backlash with fans. They brought Michael back in IV, V and all the sequels onward. which I believed ruined the series. Maybe that's why I only own 1 2 and 3 on DVD. I will tell you about my opinions about the second movie in part 2 of this review.
