Halloween (1978)

…Carpenter didn’t invent the elements that fueled this film’s legacy, but his recipe of influence…

…establish[es] his place in the MCU rather than exploring what it means to be Spidey.

West shook the dust off of retro terror with “House of the Devil”, and now he’s just showing the old girl off!

…there’s so much about the moody atmosphere, dramatic lighting, and engaging performances that remain sharp…

“The Haunting” doesn’t try to get into your head; it puts you inside of its own.

We’re allowed to properly fall in love with the clueless characters… before things take an ominous turn.

…so terrifically terrible it’s almost required viewing.

…excessive sequences are born out of director Robert Wise taking the Star Trek mythos seriously.
