Summary: The scariest movie I've ever seen!
Review: "Halloween" is just a thrilling and freaky movie. John Carpenter's music chills me to this day. His direction is dark and claustrophobic, moving along with the characters instead of cutting to the next shot. This movie also set the standard for all other slasher films that followed. However, "Halloween" is not a gruesome teen slasher flick. Almost NO blood or gore is shown on-screen, which is a plus. The film builds on suspense and atmosphere, which is important for a horror film. Jamie Lee Curtis is at her best here as the babysitter Laurie Strode. The last half of the movie is where the real terror begins, as Laurie runs away from Michael Myers. When you hear Carpenter's music play, your heart just pumps rapidly and you never feel safe. To me, this is the epitome of a scary movie. Even after 20 years of numerous sequels and imitators, "Halloween" remains the scariest of all horror films.

Summary: 'Halloween scares up a good time'
Review: John Carpenter's horror classic about an escaped masked killer who stalks a babysitter (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her friends on Halloween night in Haddonfield, Ill.
Suspenseful, entertaining, and scary as hell, Halloween is sure to give you the creeps. It also has an bone-chilling score by Carpenter.

Summary: Fady Ghaly's reviews
Review: The film that not only put John Carpenter on the map and instantaneously declared actress Jamie Lee Curtis as a superstar in her first roll as the resourceful babysitter who is chased by the killer on Halloween night, but also opened new doors for the viable and successful genre, Halloween, despite it being released over twenty-years-ago, remains to be a cult favorite that'll-in addition to its brothers-still be swiped off shelves during the month of October, as it remains to be the standard to which all other modern horror films are measured. There is just something about it that entices me to see it on every Halloween night. Perhaps because the presence of the all-most powerful and pitiless Michael Myers, who, as we know, neither feels pain nor has any compassion amongst others whatsoever; he even shows that he has great fondness for death, as he tilts his head sideways and watches his victims' time decomposing virtually each time he's done with them. (As Dr. Loomis said, this killer truly is nothing but pure evil, and it now is clear to us that he meant that literally!) And perhaps because of the film's spooky music that has yet been played in every other sequel that followed? Or, simply, perhaps because it takes place in Halloween? All I know is that Halloween night just wouldn't be the same without it, regardless of how many times it's been watched and how predictable it has now become. It's like when you play a really great video game that you have beaten several times and yet continue to play-you know where all of the villains are hiding, but continue to play it for the sheer pleasure of blowing their brains away.Produced for very little amount of money and a tight shooting schedule, Carpenter and longtime producer Debra Hill-who too was put on the map-must have had no idea of just how big of a hit they were going to have on their hands here, but once it was released, the results were staggering. Halloween is possibly the most influential and successful independent film ever to be made. It's an all-time classic that not only declared these fine people as worthy filmmakers but also introduced what has now become one of the world's most eminent psychotic killers of all time. We see Michael Myers lurking in the shadows and gradually revealing his ghostly appearance behind those frightened ones who'll without a doubt fall as another victim to his violent disorder if do not get a move on, or we see him pretending to have been conquered by his opponents, only to get right back up again for some more heart-pounding suspense, and we love it. We can't get enough of it, and that's because Halloween has the quality many other horror films lack in.

Summary: One Of The Greatest Horror Films Ever Made!
Review: Young Jamie Lee Curtis is Laurie Strode in this powerfully made horror film that relates to PSYCHO. Donald Pleasence plays Dr. Sam Loomis - who's job it is to save the night from the one and only Michael Myers - a psychopath who recently broke out of an Illinois mental hospital. First off, I would just like to tell you that HALLOWEEN is one of the finest horror movies ever made. It's my favourite film,... Michael Myers of HALLOWEEN still stands as one of the most original serial killers today in horror film history. And HALLOWEEN is considered as one of the best horror films around the world. This movie is a great one to play on the night of halloween. Especially if you're young, in the dark, and alone. I can remember back in the days when HALLOWEEN was always on television on halloween night. Now days I can only find it on one of those special cable boxes. That kind of bothers me, but having those memories are great. John Carpenter sure has an amazing way of making films.... I hope my review was helpful to you!

Summary: Nailbiting, influential thriller
Review: Halloween has recently been dubbed by Shivers magazine as "the scariest 20th century movie ever". And whose to argue that?
With excellent acting from Nick Castle (Michael Myers) who plays him with unholy relish one cannot but be dazzled at this film's grace. Jamie Lee Curtis' premier film is indeed powerful, again the first proper scream queen we ever had. The story is quite simple to understand. A homicidal maniac (Myers) escapes from a mental institution making a night of babysitting turn in to a night of pure hell for an unsuspecting babysitter (Curtis)
Support roles from Donald Pleasance as the half mad psychologist of Myers also add to this film's classic touch, which shall never appear dusty on any video store's horror shelf!
A must for Horror fans.

Summary: iz this the end?
Review: Of coarse not! there are tons of sequels. But did you know Friday the 13th has 10 sequels? I think thats the most. Halloween was originally called the "Babysitting Murders" but changed to Halloween. This film is about a killer (maniac) named Michael Myers who killed when he was little and got placed in a phycho home. A lot of years later when he was grown, he was released which was a big mistake. If I'm not mistaken, there are tons more sequels and it ends in Halloween H20
