The last comment mentioned brought up a good point regarding the low budget side of Halloween. How is it that the low budget horror films of the 70s and 80s have had more success over time than the big budget Hollywood horrors of the 90s? All of the successful films of the 70s and 80s were made not only on low budgets, but also were one of the film makers first few films they made. Not only Halloween, but also Texas Chainsaw massacre, and Friday 13th. I'm sure there are more. Is it possible these films were successful because the film makers were in it to make films and not money? Why are todays horror movies from major Hollywood studios lousy? I do not know the exact answer, and there are probably different reasons for it. I recommend watching low budget horror movies made by no name small production companies that recruit actors that are not known in Hollywood. Thats where I look for good horror films.
