John Carpenter’s 1978 Halloween movie introduced the world to the iconic serial killer Michael Myers, his crazy William Shatner mask, and of course, to Jamie Lee Curtis. The film revolutionized horror movies and spawned a ridiculous number of sequels, spin-offs and reboots. But what kind of decisions went into making the original? Why were there SO many lingering long takes and filler moments? How was Michael able to survive the crazy stuff that happened to him? What’s up with Loomis and the police not warning anybody about a crazy killer on the loose?
