Given WAY too much Credit.

Rating: 5/10 (15 December 2006)

At best Halloween can be summed up as 'luke warm.' Given a stale one dimensional character to work with in the beginning is just what you would expect with most slashers. This would not be such a big problem were it not for the fact that four people are killed in this movie... That's right... 4. Throughout this ENTIRE movie four people are murdered. One which you barely see in a bush. Michael Myers is just a smaller and (Dare I say.) Weaker Jason Voorhees. Being taken down by a Coat hanger of all things. Laurie the heroine of the film could not be any duller if she tried. Dropping two knives while Myer's chases her. Here is an Idea: USE THE KNIFE TO STAB HIM INSTEAD OF A COAT HANGER. If I had to give credit to this movie, it would have to probably be the now famous music. Camera angles are uninspired and the character of Myers is just too dull, so you killed your sister. So what. I know people will bash this to no end but Halloween in the end just seems like a lame story done with a lame cast who basically are responsible for the stereotypes we see in Slashers today.
I bought this at a flea market for two dollars and I still feel cheated. Watch it if you're into old school stuff. If not, I'd avoid.
