Halloween (1978)
10/10
The ultimate horror movie!!
31 October 2005
"Halloween" in my book is the greatest horror film around.John Carpenter and Debra Hill created this masterpiece and showed they know how to make a great movie.

A great cast,Jamie Lee Cutris as Laurie Strode,the late Donald Plesence as the psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis,P.J. Soles as Lynda,Nancy Loomis as Annie.Charles Cyphers as Sheriff Brackett,Nancy Stephens as Marion Chambers,Brian Andrews as Tommy Doyle and Kyle Richards as Lindsey.

The movie started out in 1963 in Haddonfield,Illinois as Michael Myers,a little boy sees his sister,Judith,having sex with her boyfriend.As soon as her boyfriend leaves,Michael picks up a knife and goes upstairs and stabs his sister.His parents come home and see him with a knife in his hand and a blank expression on his face.

Fifteen years later,Michael is going to be going to court.His psychiatrist,Dr. Sam Loomis is with a nurse,Marion Chambers go to the mental institution and see the patients outside.Micheal hits the window of the car and nearly hurts Marion.Michael escapes and drives off in the car.

Dr. Loomis knows where Michael is going to.He goes to Haddonfield to find Michael.Michael goes on his killing spree,it is Halloween night and the whole town of Hadonfield will be forever effected by the mayhem of Michael Myers.

"Halloween" is the greatest horror movie and it really introduced us to a really big time psychopath,Michael Myers.

Nick Castle played the roll of Michael Myers really well.Nick Castle,who is also a director,directed films like "TAG: The Assassination Game" and directed the 1984 science fiction movie "The Last Starfighter" which starred Lance Guest,who played Jimmy in "Halloween II".

I heard that the mask of Michael Myers is modeled to look like William Shatner a.k.a. Captain James T. Kirk of "Star Trek" in the interview with the late Debra Hill.

I give this movie 2 thumb up and 10 stars.
