The one, The only, The classic Halloween(May contain spoilers)

Rating: Null/10 (30 October 2002)

This is good for the low budget it had but everyone says this is really scary. It's not. It does startle, send chills down your spine and make you jump but you shouldn't have any trouble. Parts of the film will scare you like when Bob goes to get a beer or when the seemingly dead Michael Myers is getting up behind Laurie.
The score is one of the best in any horror films. It was very basic but very scary.
Michael Myers was a very scary character. He killed his sister in 1963 and spent 15 in a mental institute. He steals a car and goes to Haddonfield. In Haddonfield Laurie Strode and Annie Brackett are babysitting across the street from each other. Meanwhile Michael's doctor Sam Loomis is trying to stop what he knows is going to happen. He says to the Sheriff "I spent 8 years trying to reach that boy 7 trying to keep him locked up because what was behind that boys eyes was simply pure evil" What made Michael scarier in this film is that he didn't mess about. He killed them and pursued his next victim. In sequels he messed about.
Make no mistake this should not be the best horror you've seen. Dan Grant asked in his review "what horror film would you rather watch?" I would rather watch films from the Children of the Corn series which mostly are from the 90's which he keeps mouthing off about for bad horror. Yes the best Children of the Corn film was in the 80's but the 90's wasn't bad. He has a point though, modern horror should be like Halloween. Using the same technique and suspense.
I Know What You Did Last Summer is the only modern teen killer movie that can compare with Halloween. Halloween shaped horror. Every horror fan should know that.
Halloween is unpredictable but the predictable parts are scary when they eventually happen (good use of suspense) for example when Annie Brackett is getting into the car.
This isn't very gory so you shouldn't be put off and every horror fan should watch this! Enjoy. 7 out of 10.
