In 1978 John Carpenter co-wrote and directed the original Halloween. Little did they know at the time that this would be the launching point into a cinematic franchise consisting of 13 feature films, including remakes, reboots and one stand alone story spanning 44 years. Over the next 13 weeks, SLASH - a brand new horror movie podcast - will be watching all of the Halloween movies and our host, Mike from Geek Mentality, also known as me, will be talking about the movies. Some he's seen countless times. Some he hasn't seen in years. And there are a few on this list he will be watching for the first time. It's weird talking in the third person, I'm going to switch it up. So please join me on a fun look back at the OG horror movie franchise. The one I am pretty sure started it all.
