Amazon.com essential video:
Halloween is as pure and undiluted as its title. In the small town of Haddonfield, Illinois, a teenage baby sitter tries to survive a Halloween night of relentless terror, during which a knife-wielding maniac goes after the town's hormonally charged youths. Director John Carpenter takes this simple situation and orchestrates a superbly mounted symphony of horrors. It's a movie much scarier for its dark spaces and ominous camera movements than for its explicit bloodletting (which is actually minimal). Composed by Carpenter himself, the movie's freaky music sets the tone; and his script (cowritten with Debra Hill) is laced with references to other horror pictures, especially Psycho. The baby sitter is played by Jamie Lee Curtis, the real-life daughter of Psycho victim Janet Leigh; and the obsessed policeman played by Donald Pleasence is named Sam Loomis, after John Gavin's character in Psycho. In the end, though, Halloween stands on its own as an uncannily frightening experience--it's one of those movies that had audiences literally jumping out of their seats and shouting at the screen. ("No! Don't drop that knife!") Produced on a low budget, the picture turned a monster profit, and spawned many sequels, none of which approached the 1978 original. Curtis returned for two more installments: 1981's dismal Halloween II, which picked up the story the day after the unfortunate events, and 1998's occasionally gripping Halloween H20, which proved the former baby sitter was still haunted after 20 years. --Robert Horton

If any of you don't know the family's that are in these movies then here's some information Laurie Strode has two children John Strode and Jamie Lloyd but Jamie has a step mother so Laurie Strode could go to California to have a life. Nobody knows what happened to Jamie Lloyd after Halloween 5. She did die in the 6th one but that couldn't be Jamie Lloyd. First of all that wouldn't look like her 6 years later. They did nothing for Halloween 6 it is a stupid film. Now here's the real thing as soon ... Read More

Halloween never looked better than on this Blu-ray. Except for some softness in the picture in certain scenes where the background or some caracters look out of focus, the image is so sharp and detailed that is hard to believe this is a 1978 movie. And personally I don't care about the change in the color timing that caused a lot of debate on the internet forums. Sound is just ok, considering the source and the extras, while slim compared to other editions, are solid, like the commentary track and ... Read More

This rare out of print DVD of the classic film 'Halloween' contains footage shot by original director John Carpenter and added to the film when it made it's network TV debut. After all the gore was edited out, Carpenter and co. had to fill up the time needed to air a film during prime time hours. And so missing chapters, like glimpses of Michael Myers in the asylum as a boy, were finally revealed to fans. As a 'purist', i do own a copy of the film in it's original theatric cut, but the 'fan' in me ... Read More
