Halloween / 1978
The godfather of slasher films. Can stand toe to toe with anything from the classic era of the 1970s - Texas Chainsaw, Exorcist, Alien, and then this. Perfectly summed up by Dr. Sam Loomis' quote:
"I met him, fifteen years ago; I was told there was nothing left; no reason, no conscience, no understanding; and even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, of good or evil, right or wrong. I met this six-year-old child, with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and the blackest eyes... the devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized that what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply... evil."
Perfect.
Turn around, Laurie.
