An excellent, legendary horror flick.

Rating: 9/10 (26 April 2002)

This is one of the greatest horror films of all time without a doubt. You can see the amount of films this has influenced over time and it is another shining example of the genius of John Carpenter. The atmosphere & tension he creates in this movie is unbelievable and sometimes unbearable.
Jamie Lee Curtis & Donald Pleasence are outstanding and in my opinion are the main reason that this horror film became the smash hit that it thoroughly deserved. Carpenter is great in his direction as he often effectively uses the camera to become the eyes of Myers looking through his mask.
A great movie and a must for all horror lovers.

Rating 9/10. Classic.
