Halloween (1978), dir. John Carpenter
We open the list with a loud bang! A Halloween horror movie marathon would not have been possible without Carpenter’s cult horror film. Michael Myers is one of the most famous movie psychopaths. The production itself has had many sequels, and today also a new trilogy ( retcon ) directed by David Gordon Green. Brutal, mysterious and supernaturally powerful, the antagonist provides a juicy dose of blood, horror and darkness. Today it may not be as impressive as it used to be, but class is class!
