Summary: Very original, suspensful, and well directed!
Review: When you see Halloween for the first time, you think of 2 things. 1) "This is so simple its scary." and 2) "Why cant other movies be like this?". This movie had the plot, faceless, emotionless killer, and Jamie Lee Curtis's Talent to go along with it.

The music sets the tone. And the awesome directing just makes it better. This movie is a horror classic and will remain one of Jamie Lee Curtis's best films!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the Best Horror Films of All Time...
Review: Is there a horror fan out there that does not like this film? I really cannot understand how anyone could not like this film. "Halloween" is one of the earliest (and best) slasher films ever! A young babysitter and her friends are terrorized by an emotionless killer who (years earlier) murdered his sister on Halloween night. This film has been copied many times, but no other wannabe adds up to the originality or creativity displayed in this film.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Michael Myers - Not A Very Nice Person!
Review: This is a true clasic. It was this film which set the table for all the great slasher-movies from the golden '80's. It was also the brekthrough for actor Jamie Lee Curtis and director John Carpenter. The movie starts with Dr.Loomis (Donald Pleasance) who is going to his work-place on a mental hospital. But when he gets there a man with the name of Michael Myers escapes. Michael had killed his sister when he was 6 years old, and hav been locked up since then. Now he goes hunting for his little sister Laurie. This movie is scary and at the same time entertaining. On the older copies, the colors feel very blue, but if you buy the restored DVD edition, it feels like the movie has been made all over again, and the soundtrack is also remastered. ENJOY!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A nice beginning to a wonderful series...
Review: HALLOWEEN was one of the first (and best) horror films I've seen. I think this was what really made me a fan of the genre. This is truly a scary piece of work, and Michael Myers well deserves to be a classic horror icon. Jamie Lee Curtis also did a good job as Laurie Strode, and being accompanied by fellow acting great Donald Pleasence made a wonderful pair. Although the murder scenes were a bit sluggish, the music made up for it! I love that theme :)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great suspense horror classic from John Carpenter.
Review: This is one of the best horrors films, that ever came out in the late seventies and also the best slasher film. Directed and Co-written by John Carpenter(The Fog, The Thing, Ghosts of Mars) gives this film a strong suspense and chills also. Good performances by Donald Pleasence and Jamie Lee Curtis. Carpenter also score the film. This film made history in 1978, produced by Debra Hill(Also co-written the film) made this unforgettable in the history of horror films. The plot is simple: In 1963, an six year old boy killed his sister without a reason and then fifteen years later, he escapes and then return to his home town and he stalks and kills babysitters. The plot might seems dumb but it`s works surprisngly well. DVD is remastered in THX Picture Quality and Sound. Include: Widescreen anamorphic format(2.35:1) and Pan & Scan. Three different soundings for the film: Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround, Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround and Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono. The extras are an 30 min documentary on the film, trailers, radio spots, photo gallery and bios. Panavision. Grade:A-.

Summary: Halloween
Review: Laure Doyle is the "nerd" of her gang. She dont have a boyfriend, she's to afraid to ask somebody out, she's shy and she gets almost strigth A's. Its halloween, and since she dont have a boyfrind to spend the day with, she is babysitting Tommy. Her friends are around somewhere else, one is with her boyfriend and the other one is babysitting right across the street. Dr Sam Loomis has been responsible for Michael Myers a long time. When Michael was only six, he killed his older sister, and later he killed his parants. That night, acsactly 15 years later, he runs away again. This time he's after Laurie and her friends. Laurie, who offcourse isn't used to kill people, has to takle this serial killer all by her self, and he seems to have some more powers then just a human...

Jamie Lee Curtis's first movie. Belive it or not, she migth be one of our best acters now, but the? Noway. Donald Pleasence, the one who became the big halloweenperson, is more like what we call an acter. You can also find Nancy Allen from "Carrie" beyon Lauries friends. The movie an classic, the movie who started the big horror-raid in the late seventys and eightys. Defently wort seeing if you are a horrofan. Hey - its history, as important as the civial war are for your teachers...

Summary: THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST!
Review: I'll have to say that Halloween was one of the greatest horror movies ever made, it is the film that spawned memorable horror series like Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street. This is a must see for any horror fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best movies in the genre
Review: Being a huge horror fan, I naturally watched this movie as soon as I was old enough to be allowed to. It scared the hell out of me then and now that I'm 20 it still gives me a good creep-out. Ten times better than other lunatic-stalker-killer flicks because of the extremely high suspense level and lack of graphic bloody gore. Don't get me wrong--there are murders aplenty in this movie, they just don't tastelessly splash the walls with fake "blood". Don't watch it alone or in the dark...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Interesting Plot
Review: This is the first video in a set of 6 or 7. The 'Halloween' series is fantasrtic. It's about a boy who borrows a costume for trick-or-treat. This costume is evil and makes him get posessed by the devil. He starts killing people! He kills his first person by the age of 6-8. The police work on it and it goes on. Great Horror Movie!
