One of the best...

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 1999)

I saw this movie at the tender age of 7 in a packed theater on that cold, October night in 1978. Michael Myers and that death white mask changed my view of horror movies from that day forward. I laughed at Freddy and Jason, they were nowhere near as frightening as the Shape. It was a superb story that used terror rather than blood and gore to get to its audience. That is the most prominent thing I remember about the film, the fear it instilled in me. By far the best horror/slasher film ever made.
