More creepy and slightly unnerving than so scary they're at risk of giving you a heart-attack but I enjoyed them (having read the original short stories hundreds of times probably meant I'm a bit biased).

It gets more and more complex and creepier the more I watch it or think about it. A stunning film generally, not just in the field of horror.

I was terrified of Halloween as a kid though. Saw it when I was 11. Gave me a fear of the dark that was still cropping up nearly 20 years later.
Part of me wants to watch it again because I know it'll be dated and shit to get it out my system but at the same time I'd like to preserve the one film that terrified me.
I haven't even bothered with 4. Somebody in a suit seems convinced that it can be stretched into a franchise, despite it turning to shit by the third film.tigerswiftly wrote:It wasn't good, but at least there were one or two reasonable (if cheap as can be) jump scares.
