Michael Myers gets another stab at 4K glory thanks to Scream Factory’s Halloween Collector’s Edition 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray 3-Disc set. Vital Disc Stats: The 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Now with the 12th entry in the franchise Halloween Kills on the horizon, we’re given a grand excuse to burn through these films one more time.
A small production that made big waves and left an indelible mark on horror filmmaking for generations. The first and always the best, this was raw John Carpenter at his finest. It wasn’t until I could rent these films without my mother’s veto that I was finally able to fully appreciate them - especially this particular film. Thanks to a kick-ass local television station that aired recent horror releases, I got a pretty regular dose of Halloween or one of its sequels growing up. Like many kids of the 80s, it was either neutered television edits or the rental store to get our fix of the shape. I didn’t get to discover this film in theaters. I may not love every entry equally, but I devour each one as they come out and watch them all through every year come October. Like a frog in a high school biology lab, we’ve dissected John Carpenter’s Halloween, and again, and again, and again… and again! At this point, I really don’t have much more to add to the commentary here other than to state outright I’m a die-hard fan of the franchise.
As her friends are picked off one by one, Laurie will come face to face with the most terrifying boogyman of all. Pursued by his doctor Samuel Loomis, Michael stalks a young teenage girl, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis). 15 years later after living in a state of near catatonia, Michael escapes from a mental institution and returns to his hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois. In 1963 when he was just six years old, little Michael Myers brutally stabbed his older sister to death.
