Halloween is easily one of the best scary movies I have seen in years, no doubt on my top five best Horrors ever. The movie knew what today's spooky film goers were looking for, it genuinely shocks, and it genuinely surprises, it had me jumping off my seat more than a film has in a long time.
It is an excellent turn to form for a franchise that always had potential but seldom delivered on it. Jamie Lee Curtis packs in a career highlight as Laurie Strode, a role she originated forty years ago, and their is a grounded comfort in her performance, as well as a willingness to be bold and daring.
Michael Myers is by far one of the most heart pounding horror villains, and he is so utterly unpredictable in this film that it kept me constantly at the edge of my seat. The very first on screen death let's us know that this film is taking no shortcuts, and all the risks.
Phenomenal horror/thriller. Intense and not for the faint of heart, I would highly recommend Halloween to all Horror film fanatics.
Forty years after the events of the first Halloween, Michael Myers escapes the asylum once more, but Laurie has been awaiting his return.
