Here it is..... the film that started it all. How could you have a must see horror film list without this being on it? One of the first horror movies directed by John Carpenter which firmly cemented his place in the horror film world. The story begins with six year old Michael Myers who kills his sister on Halloween night. Years later Michael breaks out of the institution which he's been in for 15 years and makes his way back to his home town of Haddonfield. This time his target is a group of teenagers living in his old neighborhood. The police along with Michael's psychiatrist Dr. Loomis are the teens only hope at surviving the night. This is also the film that made Jamie Lee Curtis the "Scream Queen" (following in her mothers footsteps). The film itself was low budget but the cast and crew made the best of it and came out with a film that has since become a cult classic.
