This movie is criminally underrated, it’s so good I consider it to be the end of the Halloween series. A perfect conclusion to 'The night he came home'.

Potential94 That was what Carpenter and Hill had in mind. They planned to make an anthology series with new villains and characters in movies under the “Halloween” name. So they made “Halloween III: Season of the Witch”. But people hated that movie when they first saw it because it didn’t have Micheal Myers in it. And that spawned more sequels which I enjoy. Aswell as Season of the Witch.

@TheScorpio Vampyre That 2018 film was trash. It was the last movie I saw in a theater and ever will see until Hollywood gets its act together & drops the anti-male/feminist & other agendas that has ruined so many franchises of my youth with shitty sequels. Until then, Hollywood can screw off (no wonder ticket sales have been so abysmal in general compared to the past in the last 4+ years). A shit movie with shit characters that only sold tickets from its link to the original film. The only thing I liked about that movie was the mask, which was the 2nd best mask after the original mask in the first 2 films. A damn waste having a really good mask after all those years on a bad film. There was no reason for Laurie to be armed & ready for Michael considering she didn't go through what she did in H2 and would've never found out about being his sister. Even more because Michael was supposedly captured, so she would have no reason to be on edge as she was about him being that dangerous since everything that she witnessed that resulted in her knowing how invincible he was happened as a result of events that didn't happen in that timeline. It doesn't even make sense because they reveal that Myers was captured when he disappeared & was not even around to be captured. It ignores the ending of the first film where Loomis shoots him and Myers is gone by the time he makes it to the window to see what he expected to be Myers' corpse. So it's not even a true sequel to the 1st film when it cherrypicks and leaves stuff out that is inconvenient to its plot. Myers having been captured in a retconned version of the events in H1 also makes him considerably less of a threat when we saw how entire police forces couldn't handle him in H4 & H5 and he was only captured in H5 after Loomis' crazy plan and we saw how long that lasted after Wynn killed everyone to bust him out. Wynn taught him how to drive and was responsible for his escape in H1 (they don't let patients walk around freely like zombies in mental institutions like Loomis & Marion saw when they arrived at the gate of Smith's Grove) and there was no way he would've let his plan of unleashing Myers get stopped & allow Michael to be captured for 40 years without doing anything about it. It was obvious from the free roaming patients outside by the gate, from Loomis' comment about someone teaching Myers how to drive, and the way the camera focused on Wynn after Loomis' comment that Wynn was neck deep involved with Myers' escape all the way back in H1, years before they confirmed it in H5 & H6.

Saw it in the theater in 1981. By the way movies in the 70's and 80's had the best opening titles. I hate that they do not do them now. Opening titles = epicness.

All I was doing was dressing up as Jason. Next year, I dress up as a pig masked serial killer and same problem. Stupid parents. Don't wanna be scared on freaking Halloween, don't come out of your freaking house! Halloween is suppose to be scary.

Mr. Badass I AGREE

Bare with me... I was 14 when this movie came out. I saw it opening night. for those of you who didn't experience this movie in a movie theater back in 1981, words cannot describe how absolutely scary these opening credits were. Allow me to explain it: the auditorium is dark. The theme starts over Donald Pleasance as he runs off camera. There's a smattering of applause from the audience. Here we go! Suddenly the screen cuts to black and the pipe organ on the base notes (:17 mark in this clip) hits as the Moustapha Akkad credit fades in. The audience began roaring and cheering. The pumpkin suddenly flickers to life and I'll never forget the feeling of being trapped at that point as the camera pushes in, pulling me in with it. It was like being on a rollercoaster as the chain drags you slowly up that first hill. The butterflies. The urge to want to piss your pants and throw up at the same time. Palms sweating. Nervous laughter. And it felt like that grinning pumpkin was saying "my boy, there ain't no turning back now." Then it splits, slowly opens, a skull hiding in there all along. Fuck! It was terrorfying. I literally remember thinking to myself, "maybe this wasn't such a good idea..." Of course, I ended up loving it.

MAN if i only i could have been been born 10-15 years earlier to have experienced all of the amazing horror films of the 80's as they came out!! I'm jealous!! I remember the first time i watched this movie, probably at 14 years old,late 90's, The scene where Mike's mask slowly appears while he' behind the nurse when she realizes the doctor had been stabbed with a needle in the eye, It was a stomach-flipping, paralyzing scare-the-shit-of-you-to-down-the-very-Core type of feeling. I felt sick and somehow wired for the next f'ing Hour! And i LOVED IT! Just a truly amazing piece of horror-Artwork. That, the music, story, the basement elevator chase sequence, H2 is Still my favorite of the whole franchise.

Always loved 2:50 through the conclusion of the intro. The theme reaching it's climax with rhe skull becoming fully revealed and more inhumane has always been somewhat significant to me. In contrast to the bland Jack-o-lantern in Halloween, it definitely feels like the skull represents Michael the human is "dead" and The Shape/Boogeyman is all that is left. Any trace of what we could interpret to be an (obviously psychopathic and mentally deranged) but otherwise "ordinary" man is totally gone. He took six slugs at the end of Halloween and was back on his feet in less than fifteen seconds. He isn't pumped full of PCP or psych meds, either. He's simply so far gone that all traces of humanity have been lost. As Loomis would say, there's nothing there but evil. The mystery and the not knowing is what is scary about the original two Halloweens. Everything from him legitimately morphing into a vessel for evil despite a relatively normal upbringing down to the emotionless mask he dons. He's still a horror icon but if they'd allowed Carpenter to move on from Myers and conclude his story with Halloween 2, he'd be ten times more terrifying than he is today. The unknown is so much more chilling and disturbing than the explanation.

I think it's on par with the original Halloween intro. I love in the first one when the camera slowly zooms into the eye of the pumpkin and then the film begins and the audience sees from the eye of the villain. It added a wonderful anonymity and anticipation to the opening of the film for the audience. Just as this one. But since it's a skull, I suppose it could mean that this time we see the following scene from the perspective of a killer who has already died once before (at the end of the previous film).

The skull is the evil that lies beneath the surface of Halloween, of Haddonfield, a reminder to the audience that evil exists within man. The choice to zoom in on the left eye of the skull is a reminder of the first one, but also could be taken as the nature of Michael Myers, once the screen is completely black as the camera zooms completely into the eye, the movie transitions into Michael's POV.

Trans8010 The whole purpose of the opening sequence was to build fear and suspense. As Debra Hill said she didn't want to leave this movie open for private interpretation! Which exactly what you're doing. By trying to explain the opening sequence of this film. Just a very bad interpretation!

The first 2 Halloween Movies are untouchable. Why they made “Halloween 3 Season of the Witch” is because they originally wanted to make an anthology with more than just one villain. But people loved Michael Myers so much that the movie got crapped on and went to make more sequels for Michael Myers soon after because of his popularity.

Halloween 1 and 2 are time tested and are still the best out of the whole series.

Did you care about the characters? etc. For example I consider the Babadook one of my two favorite horror movies, because I thought it was quite scary and I cared about the characters. Halloween 2 didn't scare me in the slightest and there were at most 2 people in the movie that I care about, but its music and atmosphere are beyond phenomenal so I still consider it my other favorite horror movie.

I like the original more but this theme is still really good

coolest horror film intro EVER!

I never understood why H2 wasn't well received. After all, it was an immediate continuation from where H1 started. What's scarier than the bogeyman on the loose in a hospital. The "Shape" stalking Lori ever so patiently in what amounted to one elongated scene to where Loomis rescues her, but another stalk begins. Classic!

Who's here because of the inflating pumpkin from 'Halloween' (2018)?

Truly brilliant that the movies end and begin in motion as the nightmare of Halloween night never ends

I bet Halloween kills will do an alternative take on this intro

In the first halloween, Dr. Loomis shot myers 6 times, but in the beginning of the second one, he shot him 7 times

+GetReked That's because for Halloween II, Dr Loomis had watched The Rocky Horror Picture Show the night before and decided to do the Time Warp Again so to shot Michael one more time to make sure he was dead... but John Carpenter and Debra Hill had decided Michael wasn't dead afterall and since Rick Rosenthal was shooting the sequel it would have been unwise to make that movie only 10 mintutes long. :D

Awesome intro, awesome film. I saw this first on video when I was 8, and it scared the living shit out of me.

HALLOWEEN & HALLOWEEN II are the best halloween's ever made

My second favorite Halloween theme behind the original

If the exorcist had an intro kind of like this it would be really cool

You cant kill the boogie man !

You don't know what death is! RIP Dr. Loomis

What I love about this is when the theme cues up, it sounds like it's in the space. Like someone has speakers in Haddonfield playing the theme

Love the Gothic sound to this verson with organ it was very fitting with this movie it had the dark Gothic sound to it loved it.

Came back after watching the “Halloween Kills” trailer!

I remember watching this as a kid on USA NETWORK

One of the most greatest, memorable, scariest, and iconic opening scenes in horror cinema. To this day it still gives me chills and goosebumps. It never gets old. 😍😎💯👍😏😰😱

76 people didn't know what death was

The more I listen to this opening the more creepier and awesome it gets. #youdontknowwhatdeathis

just brillant. halloween movies can give you a buzz from being scared and that is priceless. best time ever late 70's and early 80's for slasher movies. get drunk, eat popcorn, hold your loved one and get freaked out by these movies its a high like a drug and its so cool!

"Been another death tonight!" "You don't know what death is!" "Maybe, but check out this banger" drops the beat

*john carpenter has joined the chat*

Am I the only one who thought this one was the best one? I mean I know the 1st one was better filmed by carpenter directing but I liked this one more because dick warlock as Michael made it intense as hell with his slow walk and I like the dark hospital setting.

The director if this flick was an absolute genius keeping the sequal right where it left off and making this flick really creepy. The music is absolutly stunning to say the least as well as the visuals. I tip my hat off to the people who made the opening scene in the credits. AWESOME!!!

You don't know what HD is!

Best intro exchange ever, and i been into horror since i been white. Homeowner: "IS THIS SOME KIND OF JOKE, I BEEN TRICK OR TREATED TO DEATH TONIGHT" Dr. Loomis: "YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT DEATH IS"

I always liked this intro better than the original one. With the pumpkin slowly splitting up and revealing a skull was really a creepier effect.

I love the church organ in the theme. It makes the theme feel angry almost.

This version of the theme song is more sinister then the original I’m not saying saying it’s better but in my opinion there both as good as the other it’s a matter of anyone else taste weather you like the simplicity of the original or much more sinister and up beat that is H2 I feel like there both equal

I have a question but what does this pumpkin supposed to represent like I know the first pumpkin from the first movie meant like yeah it’s Halloween and this holiday has pumpkins and there is going to be a psychopathic serial killer doing what he must enjoy?

Lol Always negative comments from somebody. The music along with the opening of that pumpkin to expose a skull is fantastic.

This is the movie version, the tv version is has the credits first and then the clip of the older movie.

This opening really gets me and it’s an awesome theme, the first 2 in my opinion are the best

We don't know the story there...

Halloween 4 is the best of ALL the films after the original.

As far as I'm concerned THIS is the sequel to the original Halloween. I love Michael Myers and I can watch him until the end. But the original Halloween and Halloween II are pretty much the first and second greatest horror movies ever made. You'll never change my mind.

That is so awesome. Not only the music, but the slow ,eerie opening of the lit up pumpkin to reveal that skull inside...so simple, and yet so genius! And Rob Zombie is nothing compared to Halloween 1 and 2.

why's there a skeleton In the pumpkin jack o lantern it looks the skeleton of Michael Myers or another dead person it was really creepy when I first saw it.

It definitely fits the evil, expressionless, emotionless killer Michael Myers is. It really symbolizes him.

the pumpkin doesn't exactly look better than the one in the original but i like when it cracks open and there's a skull in it

I've always loved the slow zoom of the pumpkin in this intro.

To anyone who sees the new 2018 Halloween with Jamie Lee Curtis. This 1981 sequel did happen no matter what John Carpenter or the new directors say about the new 40th anniversary adaptation.

Would have been much better if John Carpenter directed it. Thought it lost some of it's magic.
