One of the greatest horror films of the last century...

Rating: 8/10 (15 April 2012)

John Carpenter's Halloween is one of the few good slasher films ever made, and with great reason...
Not made with a particuarlly large budget when put in comparison with some of the horror films made modernly, but compared to the mass amounts of pointless torture films Halloween had real suspense and terror.
This film features some of horrors most iconic imagery, the face/mask of antagonist "Michael Myers" has been one of the most notable things in horror ever.
The other thing I believe makes this film great is the fitting musical score, as well as the theme/opening music being probably the most iconic in horror, the whole score fits the scenes of the movie to create a terrifying effect.
If you have an interest in the darker sides of film I would advise watching the title film as it one of the most well made in the slasher genre.
8/10
