THE horror movie

Rating: Null/10 (18 March 2001)

Halloween is a classic horror movie. The story starts back on Halloween night, 1963 in Haddonfield, Illinois. There, a small six year old child by the name of Michael Myers brutally murders his fifteen year old sister for a then unknown reason. He is then locked up in a maximum security prison for fifteen years. We then cut forward to October 30th 1978, when Michael's doctor Sam Loomis is driving with a young assistant nurse to the prison where Michael is being held to pick him up and take him to court for his trial. But Michael escapes and makes his way towards his hometown of Haddonfield to go after his other sister Laurie Strode (played brilliantly by Jamie Lee Curtis). He then stalks Laurie and her friends throughout the day and as soon as night falls, the horror begins. He brutally murders three of Laurie's friends and a guy called Bob before going after his sister. This is the night HE came home. I won't say anymore so that I don't spoil the surprise for people who have not seen it, but this is one of the greatest movies of all time. It's not at all gory, but it's ability to shock hasen't worn down even after all these years. It will scare you out your wits, especially watching in the dark. Halloween has had countless sequels, but none of them even come close too the first film. I have seen this film many times, but it still scares me every time I watch it. A movie that no fan of horror should be without. Buy it today! You won't be disappointed! 10/10
