Giving birth to the slasher film, John Carpenter's 1978 original is the only film in the "Halloween" franchise that deserves to be called great.

Outstanding low budget shocker, expertly directed by Carpenter. Relies more on scares than on gore (there is none). You feel this movie more than you see it. Jamie Lee Curtis gives a memorable performance as Laurie.

Do it Big Screen. TV screens are OK, but the larger perspective makes this chilling (did I see someone or something in the background?).

Taking cues from an understated horror masterpiece such as "Night of the Hunter," Halloween trades all-out blood and gore for more understated and terrifying sequences of stalking. Michael Myers is a faceless and iconic horror film and this film packs an emotional punch without needing to be over-the-top.

This was an amazing movie made by an amazing director: John Carpenter, also known for his remake of "The Thing", The Fog, Prince of Darkness, and alot more. This is the best in the series which sorta went downhill and was raped by Rob Zombie's pathetic excuse for movie remake(and its sequel of course). Donald Pleasence and Jamie Lee Curtis were great in this film, I loved Michael Myers of course. I first saw this as a kid when I was 8 years old. I stumbled upon this movie on accident and it mesmerized me and now I own the whole series.

What can I say, Halloween is one of the best classics ever! This was one of John Carpenter's best movie back in the 70's. This movie is fun, and bone-chilling! Halloween is also scary, and must see movie. This is a memorable slasher movie, especially since Jamie Lee Curtis stars in it. She did a nice job on pretending to be frightened. The plot is also very good, a true classic.......

An accidental classic. The first true slasher film. Carpenter's masterpiece. Made on a shoe string budget and offering up some original scares and one of the most iconic horror icons in cinema history. The genre at its finest.

A frightening tense horror classic that will always be best remember for its prelude to cliched slasher films and its intense music and cinematography.
