great popcorn movie

Rating: 10/10 (26 October 2002)

This is by far the best of John Carpenter's movies. He definetly knows how to work the camera. I love the scenes where you can see his figure out of focus in the background. I thought Jamie Curtis gave a terrific performance, though most people are annoyed by her constant screaming. You can really feel simpathy for her character as for the numerous sequels, all I can say is that they were probably just made for profit and probably won't be entertaining to most viewers.
