Halloween (1978) [Part One]

Happy Halloween, Carpenter fans! Chris and Nick are celebrating
the season with the first installment of our two-part discussion
of 1978's all-time horror classic --  a movie that defined
the slasher sub-genre and remains one of the filmmaker's most
critically acclaimed and popular efforts. We kick things off with
a few horror-flick recommendations to get your season started
right, and then it's on to a wide-ranging exploration of
everything Halloween! From the film's masterful direction
and cinematography to the myriad sequels, remakes, and ripoffs it
spawned to (of course) that iconic original score, we've got a
whole lot to say about this one. So much, in fact, that we'll be
back in two weeks to take an even deeper dive  into Laurie
Strode and Michael Myers' unforgettable onscreen debut. After
all, it's Halloween -- everyone's entitled to one good scare (or
lots of 'em)!
