I just watched John Carpenter's "Halloween" from 1978 once again. Absolutely terrific horror movie that I can only recommend. And why is it so great? Well, first of all the music is excellent. Simple yet effective. It helps set the mood of the movie extremely well and is totally spooky most of the way. Secondly, it's great how you can always hear the killer Michael Myers' heavy breathing whenever you see him (you mostly see him from the back). The brilliance is that you also hear it when he's around but you don't see him. Kinda like in "Jaws" when you know the shark is around as you hear the theme of the movie. However, it works so much better in "Halloween". Also, Michael's breathing never changes. It's the same as he's standing, walking and killing. Get it, watch it, love it!
