Watched this numerous times and it still remains a potent and powerful low budget chiller. John Carpenter's perfect directorial Hitchcock-referencing technique; his haunting one-note score; the relentless killer ominously lurking in the background; deep shadows in dark rooms; babysitter and escaped lunatic archetypes; a sinister Donald Pleasance; a fresh-faced and innocent Jamie Lee Curtis and Dean Cundey's masterful widescreen photography all add up to an absolute horror masterpiece. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

I went into this expecting I'd get into it just like I did the Scream franchise and want to plow through the whole thing. Instead, this was painful enough that I was left feeling surprised it was ever continued.
Most of the acting and dialogue was stiff and wooden, with only Jamie Lee Curtis managing to occasionally make her lines sound like something a real person might say. The tense/spooky music was used so heavy-handedly that it came across like the horror movie version of a sitcom's laugh track.
Again, this seems to be one of those areas in which I have unpopular opinions, because I've checked several "Halloween movies ranked worst to best" lists, and somehow this one is always rated as being the best. Is it nostalgia on the part of the people making the lists? I don't know, but rather than giving the franchise another stab (pun intended), I think I'm just going to stop here.
