The Original Slasher

Rating: 9/10 (8 August 2005)

Halloween started it all, referring to slasher movies. Actually it pretty much created the genre if you ask me. I'd have to say out of all of the horror films that I've watched, this is number one. It's a perfect plot line; a boy kills his sister and is sent to a mental institution where he then breaks out on Halloween night 20 or so years later to murder his other sister.
I love the score of the movie as well. When you could here the faintest music, you knew he was there. Then, when he popped out the music starts going faster. They did a heck of a job.
The acting is great as well. Jamie Lee Curtis' scream can be heard for miles. The doctor of Michael Myers, Dr. Loomis is fantastic. The two kids and the other babysitter do a heck of a job as well, and P.J. Soles looked pretty hot.
Even the slightest horror fans will love this classic!
