Holloween (1978)



Holloween (1978)



Director: John Carpenter



Writer: John Carpenter



Main Characters: Michael Myers, Dr.Loomis, Laurie



Halloween is like a western in many ways even though it is a horror film. In Halloween that was made in 1978 there was an outlaw, a law enforcer, journey story, and also had characters chasing each other. These are all things that a movie needs to be a western. Halloween was a great movie, i especially like the 1978 version because it is the original movie and in my opinion the best one.

Michael Myers is the main character of Halloween he is also the outlaw. Michael is a psychotic man who escapes from the mental institute and tries to kill everyone in Haddenfield. Michael chases the young babysitter Laurie who lives in his old house. Michael wants to seek revenge on the people in Haddenfield. Dr.Loomis plays the doctor who evaluates Michael Myers and the only person who knows him personally and who can some what control Michael. Dr. Loomis along with the police of Haddenfield have to hunt down Michael and kill him so that he can't continue his murder spree.
