**********
One of my all-time favorite Horror flicks.
Have seen it many, many times.
Iconic.
Classic.
Essential.
It deserves all the accolades lauded upon it.
For sure.
Random things I noted this watch:
* Michael Myer's first victim as an adult... is a dog. C'mon, man.
* If "Fear the Reaper" is playing, it's guaranteed that somebody is smoking pot.
* P.J. Soles is TOTALLY goofy.
* Michael Myers ain't ashamed of driving a damned station wagon around.
* The entire movie COMPLETELY rests on John Carpenter's brilliant score. It sets the tone for every scene and maintains every tense moment. TRULY GENIUS.
* Dr. Loomis parks in Handicapped Parking. C'mon, man.
Yeah, I need to make sure I watch this more often than every 4 or 5 years. This needs to be a yearly watch. if only there were a day of the year that would remind me to watch it. Hmmmm. I'll work on that.
