The original Halloween movie directed by John Carpenter was released, introducing the character Michael Myers and establishing the iconic horror franchise.
The movie Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, a sequel in the Halloween franchise starring Jamie Lee Curtis, was released in theaters.
Halloween H20 performed well at the box office, grossing over $55 million domestically.
Watched this in theaters. Was a fun popcorn movie. I didn't like it as much as the first movie though. The nostalgia moments are a lot of fun for me, but the first movie had a ton of those too.
I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.
Finally got to see this in theaters - it's a lovely movie. One of the higher quality family-friendly sci fi movies in a LONG time. The part I liked least about the book was the humor - movie was the same. Which speaks to how good the adaptation was.
