Halloween https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/af/Halloween_%281978%29_theatrical_poster.jpg Dir: John Carpenter Genre: Horror Year: 1978 Not much needs to be said about Halloween that people don't already know. It single-handedly invented the slasher film, including all of the tropes that go with it, and ushered in the golden age of horror films of the early 80s. I do give points for innovation, but nothing got on this list through its historical breakthroughs alone. However, Halloween not only invented the slasher film, but it does it better than almost every one of them that came after it. I can attribute this mostly to John Carpenter's magnificent score, which is probably what most people remember from the movie years after watching. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...
