The Night HE Came Home!

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2003)

Opening in Kansas City in October 1978, John Carpenter's Halloween emerged into the world and we were introduced to a new king of terror, Michael Myers.
On a cold Halloween night in 1963, a teenage girl met her fate at the hands of her brother. 15 years would pass til he killed again.
Only Michael's obsessed shrink, Dr. Loomis, knows the evil that Michael stands for.
After seeing more than 100 horror films, Halloween still reigns at the top of the ladder. Effective soundtrack, good acting (rare for a horror film), superb directing, and an unstoppable killer made this stand through the test of time.
Never meant to become a franchise, Halloween's success has been entertaining us for 25 years, and no stop is in sight.
