"The suspense was great,not for the faint hearted... "

Plot:
Michael Myers, whose violent insanity may well be the result of demonic possession, escapes from the mental
home where he has been incarcerated after murdering his older sister and returns home to kill some more. He
stalks and slaughters several babysitters before the survivor learns once and for all that there is indeed a
bogeyman. Consummate craftsmanship makes a conventional genre story into something special; the film
goes easy on the bloodletting, but the subjective camera is relentless and highly effective. Halloween was one
of the most profitable independent features ever made, and it launched the damsel-in-distress career of Jamie
Lee Curtis.
