Halloween
Classic!
I haven’t watched this movie since I’ve had Letterboxd so I’ve never written a review for this film!
The Theme
The movies theme song will always be the BEST theme song for a movie I have ever heard. It’s such a classic, and it’s really just incredible.
The Ending
I thought it had a perfect ending. I loved how it shows Micheal dead on the floor and then cut to the next scene and he’s gone. I think it’s the perfect way to end a film, especially a horror film. I think they should’ve just done one Halloween movie and said it was done. I did really enjoy 2018’s Halloween movie.
The Middle
I think the movie really picks up towards the 3rd act but….. the entire movie is suspenseful and keeps you on your toes. From the first moment when you see Micheal staring at Laurie through the window at school, to the end where Micheal is trying to kill Laurie it never fails to keep you nervous. I thought this movie did a really good job doing that.
The Beginning
I don’t know why I wrote the end and the middle before the beginning but I did. I thought this first scene of the film really sets up on what to expect through out the film. The knife that Micheal used to kill his sister was so big. I was like where do you even buy that big of a knife in the 70’s. Anyway, I also love how you get to see Michel stalking Laurie and it makes you come up with theories on your first watch
Overall
Overall , This movie every time I watch it never fails to disappoint. My all time favorite horror movie ever!! It’s a tradition for me to see this movie every Halloween so I will be watching this movie again soon. Even for the thousandth time this movie will never be boring. I would give this film a 10/10 and a 5/5
