In this episode, we take a trip back to Haddonfield, Illinois, to dissect John Carpenter’s 1978 horror classic, Halloween. We discuss how a painted William Shatner mask and one of the most iconic synth scores in cinematic history birthed the modern slasher genre. Join us as we trace Michael Myers’ relentless night of terror, explore Jamie Lee Curtis’ star-making turn as the ultimate final girl Laurie Strode, and discuss why the Shape’s simple, ruthless atmosphere continues to haunt audiences nearly five decades later.
