I'm an absolute movie buff, especially horror movies. John Carpenter's Halloween(1978), remains one of my favorites till date. Noted actor Jamie Lee Curtis made her first debut with this film. The film stars Donald Pleasence as Dr. Sam Loomis, Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, and Nick Castle as Michael Myers. Critics credit Halloween as the first of the slasher films, being inspired by Psycho(1960).Although Halloween was made with a meagre budget($325,000), it went on to become a huge hit, and grossed $47 million at the box office in the United States. An important reason of the success of Halloween, was its musical score, particularly the theme music. This film carved a niche for itself in the horror genre and went to produce several other sequels, including a remake. There's hardly any movie buff, who hasn't seen this film. Watch it once again, and get spooked!!!
