Greatest Horror Film to Date

Rating: 10/10 (29 May 2003)

It's amazing how with low budgets and independent filming, John Carpenter was able to create a wonderful film that will leave you terrified. Never has a scary movie succeeded in making me afraid of the dark, taking notice to little noises outside and always from now on checking my back seat of my car until I saw Halloween. Michael Myers is definately one creepy guy and I think his mask will haunt me forever. The music is another thing, its so simple but yet so terrifying. One thing that makes me like Halloween more is that is didnt try to be like another movie, sure we had The Exorcist, Psycho, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre but Michael Myers came onto screen with a whole new look on movie villians which led to many more trying their hardest to live up to him, like Jason. I have yet to see a scary movie live up to Halloween.
