“Halloween is the only horror film that is actually a well made film.”

Gosh, those are completely different!

Perhaps you should explain further.

Gladly. Even though it appeals to a niche audience a majority of people see horror movies as poorly made films. Do me a favor and look up the scores for the following

Halloween - Halloween 2

Friday The 13th - Friday The 13th Part 4

Child’s Play - Child’s Play 3

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974 and 2003 remake)

Etc. and you’ll see people don’t really see many of these movies as being even good. They will always have a special place in my heart due to the obsession I had with them when I was growing up but a lot of people don’t feel the same way. Now when it comes to Halloween I don’t even see it as a Horror Film I just see it as a good film period. To me it transcends the limitations that so many other films in the genre are known for and stands up regardless of genre.

The exorcist isn’t a well made film?

I have’t seen that one in a long time. Let me get back to you on that one because it seems a trip down memory lane is in order.
