The Big Picture Franchise horror filmmaking became a surefire way to churn out a hit in the late 1970s and through the 1980s. Throw a bunch of teens into a campsite or a suburb and let an iconic villain hack them to pieces, you're making at least $10 million at the box office. John Carpenter gave way to this trend with his 1978 classic, Halloween, which popularized the genre and remains one of the most influential, acclaimed horror films ever made.
Release Date October 22, 1982 Director Tommy Lee Wallace Cast Tom Atkins, Stacey Nelkin, Dan O'Herlihy, Michael Currie, Ralph Strait, Jadeen Barbor Rating R Runtime 99 Main Genre Horror Tagline The night no one comes home. Halloween Was Meant to Be an Anthology Series Carpenter's classic 1978 film was such a smash hit that a sequel was demanded to finalize the Michael Myers story.
'Halloween III' Is Gnarly, Bold, and Even Darker than the Original It can't get much darker than an emotionless "shape" of a human stalking and stabbing people in an Illinois suburb, but Halloween III manages to push some boundaries even beyond the limits of what Carpenter's film was willing to show. Halloween is a violent movie, but not gratuitously when compared to the rebooted versions that depict intense gore.
