One Of My Favorite Horror Films Out There

Rating: 9/10 (5 September 2005)

Halloween is definitely one of my favorite horror movies. It has just what every good horror movie needs -- a haunting murderer, suspenseful moments and interesting murder scenes. The film is about Michael Myers, a killer who murdered his sister on Halloween night when he was only 6. He was put into an institution where he has been studied by Dr. Sam Loomis. But now Michael Myers has escaped unexpectedly and returns to his home town, where everyone remembers what happened Halloween night all those years ago. When he returns, he is stalking Laurie Strode, no matter where she goes and this terrifies her, seeing she has no idea why. Suddenly Laurie's baby-sitter friends Annie and Lynda are murdered and Laurie fears she'll be next. Halloween is filled with jump scenes and suspense. The famous opening scene of this film made my heart pump as it went on and my eyes were glued to the screen, just wondering what would happen next. This film was also one of Jamie Lee Curtis's firsts and she does a great job as her character. Halloween certainly is a frightening horror film, a must-see for any horror fan.
