"A mad killer, who stabbed his early sister to death at an early age, escapes his mental institution and returns to his hometown to continue his killing spree. Halloween is a classic of the slasher genre that has become somewhat of a standard for all horror films to measure up to. It’s also a landmark among independent films, due to its success and its quality. It put John Carpenter on the map thanks to the value of his work on this timeless film with a great share of chills and thrills regardless of tight schedule and very low budget."
