The classic that start it all

Rating: 6/10 (23 December 2002)

On an eerie night, a child slashes to death his own sister. That boy, Michael Myers, than became the living legend of terror, return to the 20 year later, to kill his other sister, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee-Curtis). Laurie survived that night. But Michael is unstoppable then.

Halloween is the first that came out in the slasher genre, and on that time, Halloween was surprisingly good, an independent movie that carried a new dimension of terror (and many of copycat, of course).
Jamie Lee-Curtis is the original Scream Queen. All my salute to her. In general this movie is fairly entertaining, but don't expect too much for the viewers of posh Scream era, because it's a bit lame. Anyway, thanks to Halloween, and John Carpenter, now we have another variant in the horror genre.
