Fun Movie to Watch

Rating: Null/10 (27 October 1999)

Some thoughts about seeing Halloween in the movie theaters when it was first released... > Forget the movie, let's watch a double feature of "The Thing" and "Forbidden Planet". The two movies were featured on the TV during the movie.
People (mostly women) were yelling for Laurie to not go across the street and for her not to put down the knife. Then they screamed when Michael kept rising. > The end was like the story they used to tell in basic training; kick him in the balls, break his nose, bash his head in and shoot him. If he gets up, run like hell...
In many ways, Michael Meyers was like his distant cousin Jason. You couldn't make him leave! He just kept coming back. I saw Halloween II and III on HBO and I haven't bothered to see any of the others that followed.
Personally, I thought they should have let it end with the first one.
It isn't quite as good on commercial TV because the commercials break up the continunity of the movie. Or is it the commercials are interrupted by the movie.
