Wow.....

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2012)

There's something to be said when a 30+ year old movie has more actual horror in it than the majority of today's "scary" movies. It took me a while to actually get around to watching it, and I'm very glad I did. John Carpenter hasn't always made gems, but this is certainly one of, if not the, finest he's ever made in his film career. The actors were almost perfectly chosen and worked well off each other and help to add to the overall tone.
Great movie, great horror scenes, and great action all around. If you're an adult, watch it, and if you're a kid, definitely watch it. As Halloween approaches, this is one movie I can definitely recommend.
9/10
