Classic example of a really scary horror movie

Rating: 10/10 (19 May 2005)

PLEASE DON'T AGNORE THIS COS ITS LONG - IF YOU ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT HALLOWEEN YOU WILL FIND IT WORTHWHILE. When i first saw this film i was about 12 and was absolutely terrified of it. I mean, for months i kept imagining being following while walking in the dark (also cos i live in the country)and other things would freak me out also. But since i have seen it about 9 times (i'm 15 by the way) and it is still my favorite horror film. Why? Because mainly its a more believable story than most horror movie stories e.g Nightmare on Elm St. (though i think thats great too) Because it makes you think "this is actually realistic and could actually happen in real life". Because (and this is talking bout Halloween 1 now) it didn't try those cheap attempts at humor like other horror movies. Also i have to mention the classic soundtrack - so simple, so spooky so brilliant. And staying with the sounds, there was also great sound effects (the sudden ones that make you jump. The actors are great too. Jamie Lee Curtis and all the rest. And we respect them more because we didn't know them before this film and we got to see them in their best roles. Unlike Halloween Resurrection which stars Busta Rhymes - who i hate with a passion, but i wont go into that now (maybe i'll comment on it) And Halloween H:20 with Josh Hartnett and that one form Dawson's creek. Also the movies great storyline (it makes full sense when you see as far a Halloween 6) Me + my friends even had a Halloween Marathon (including Halloween 3-which i enjoyed), which took 10 hours and we watched every single one, now matter how painful watching Resurrection was, no matter how long the 4th one seemed, no matter how crappy the quality and hard to watch the 6th one was at 7 o' clock in the morning.
In conclusion this is THE BEST HORROR MOVIE - EVER (despite the bad sequels - Halloween 2, Resurrection) Michael Myers rocks too and is the best movie killer ever.
