Advantages: An absolute classic of the horror genre!!!
Disadvantages: John Carpenter just makes crap films these days!!!

...here as the version of Halloween I own on DVD has been superseded by at least one more version since I bought it - so my DVD review would not reflect everything available out there on the market at the moment!!! Anyway... Here goes!!! -------------------------------------------------- Back in the Spring of 1978, John Carpenter filmed a horror movie in a remarkable 21 days and on a shoe-string budget that would change horror films forever...

They trimmed away Captain James Tiberius Kirk's ... Read review

Advantages: excellent thriller, on tenterhoks continuously, unpredictable
Disadvantages: slightly old- fashioned

This movie is the greatest mind-thrilling thriller ever created!!!! Having been produced in 1978, the graphics are excellent in the way that they are very very convincing and tension building.
