Why I believe Halloween is the best horror movie EVER!
 

Halloween is perfect because it's unassuming. they used virtual unknowns. there wasn't a defined, elaborate story to weigh things down. Donald Pleasance, may he rest in peace, totally sold the story. Michael was evil but he made us believe it. without donald there can be no halloween! the music was horrific and chilling and unmatched and perfect. the music alone terrified me as a child and it's effect still haunts me to this day. it's a movie i can watch over and over and still be scared. that's the test of a true classic in my eyes. beautiful shots of micheal so perfectly placed in the shadows and then slowly coming out of the darkness...a genius of a director! the first picture may've been slow in action but part 2 clearly makes up for it inspite of john's resentments toward it-the first was his baby. you didn't have to over think what micheal was-you just knew! and that mask is sooo perfect! they could've cut the eye holes too big or painted it black instead of white or used a spock mask instead of shatner. it was all so perfect...it is my favorite!
