Marxists at the Movies dives into John Carpenter’s horror classic and its legacy of suburban dread, looping motifs, and the birth of the modern “final girl.” From Laurie Strode’s quiet rebellion to the ways capitalism haunts the very fabric of Haddonfield, this episode unpacks how Halloween reshaped fear—and why its scream still echoes through our culture.
