Sheriff Leigh Brackett is named after screenwriter Leigh Brackett. She wrote several movies directed by Carpenter favourite Howard Hawks. Hawks/Brackett's Rio Bravo was the inspiration for Assault On Precinct 13 which also featured a character named Leigh. (Leigh Brackett also wrote the early draft of The Empire Strikes Back shortly before her death.)

[@AsHtReY45]

​@@martoto77😊😊s😊

[@kellylingus]

I`d like to recommend another classic. Who framed Roger Rabbit? Probably never make anything like that again. Thanks for all you do :)

[@patrickperalta59]

as we seen Laurie Strode opened the double doors leading outside and hid in the closet locking it but instead of falling for that trick he finds her in the locked closet assuming since it is locked she was in there. which she was .....ok makes sence. what she really should have done lock the closet then run outside letting Michael waste time braking into the closet it since it is locked and assumed she was in there. but she really is not..

[@Snoogen11]

I always loved the scene where Loomis scares the kids by whispering from the bushes, he has this little smile, then immediately gets scared by the sheriff creeping up on him XD.

[@Joker_1999]

“hey lonnie… getcho ass away from there.“- Loomis accent

[@kellydaunis]

@@Joker_1999 🤣🤣

[@jdtractorman7445]

Yeah, I always laugh at that too.@@Joker_1999

[@willnailer2118]

His face after he says it. 😂

[@culbycove4963]

I’ve always interpreted his smile as “I can save lives AND have a spooky fun time at the same time!” 😆

[@Balbadeno]

As the sightings of Micheal happen he gets closer each time, from outside the school to behind the bush, then the garden until he finally is standing behind her, I always found that interesting

[@mk-ultramags1107]

This guy gets it!

[@surf101-]

Although, he appears in different distances in between your 3 points.

[@jamesmorrison2055]

He actually stands behind her before school.

[@ludwigvanbubthoven5692]

Not to mention, Michael pulled Judith's gravestone out of the ground and somehow got it back to the house. The immense amount of strength it would take for one person to do something like that. Carpenter might have done that intentionally.

[@keithrayputman2828]

I’ve always thought the rope he got at the hardware store was for that, but I could be wrong.

[@ludwigvanbubthoven5692]

As many times as I've seen that movie, I've never considered that. Still, it shows that Michael has superhuman levels of strength. @@keithrayputman2828

[@murraykelm5691]

He showed immense strength by the way he killed the German shepherd.

I love that you mentioned Judith's boyfriend wearing the clown mask before Michael does! Zombie pays homage to that moment in his remake too! Great analysis of Michael acting out what Judith's boyfriend did just seconds🤣 prior

[@thecunninlynguist]

a classic. John Carpenter's score is haunting and The Shape is awesome! Mike paved the way for my fave killer, Jason

[@ifabforfun]

Michael stalked so Jason could hunt

[@joealdridge9958]

Love these classic movie breakdowns. Really well thought out and put together. Really respect the deep diving and back stories on a lot of these classics. Halloween will always remain the greatest horror movie(series) to me. Meyers is just so iconic!

[@jonvia]

The music in Halloween will always be my favorite part of the series. As a musician myself, that iconic piano theme just rips into your soul like a knife blade of Michael's.

[@jimmyolsenblues]

I think this entire IP is 100% in debt to the music. I think this is the most iconic IP music in any genre. The music is what made this a billion dollar IP.

[@tipsyXtwo]

Yeah but what about the IP

[@UriahElroy666]

​@@tipsyXtwoWell, the IP *is* an IP.

[@KBizzy]

JAWS is the best example of this. No question. Star Wars as well.

IP first thing every morning.

[@captainmacmellon8909]

Everyone's gangsta until you pause the film and the music keeps playing

[@heathmcrigsby]

My favorite story from this production is them having to bag up all the leaves to every shot because it was filmed in summer and they didn't have money to buy more than they had

[@IamRaloPib]

​@@mr.deadbutdreaming9628wow...never knew that...

[@99dsm1]

Robert Englund helped even

[@thelastsith2706]

The best thing is is that Michael never had any relation to Laurie Strode. It makes it 10x scarier that this was pretty much a random target that opened as an opportunity to Michael. Such a creepy detail. Hate they tried to make them brother and sister

[@BigdogGaming-sm3lj]

Finding out that they are related is what made this franchise popular over the years.

[@Vicus_of_Utrecht]

@@BigdogGaming-sm3lj No.

[@enishi4ty5]

@@Vicus_of_Utrechti disagree.. although the original concept is peak, it was copied by and predated by just about any slasher ever. the slasher being related to the protagonist is actually rare amongst the icons. freddy-revenge killing of kids tied to adults who killed him, then eventually everyone in the town Jason- anyone who comes to crystal lake or escapes his grasp along the way chucky-anyone, then andy/whoever he told his secret to 1st, then anybody he could pinhead-anyone who solves the puzzle ghostface-multiple killers all linked to the protag in various ways really the best example of a family based drama/horror besides michael/laurie is Vader/Luke so id argue the only thing better than michael hunting laurie is michael hunting jamie(his niece) and that’s more terrifying because she’s a younger more vulnerable character and even easier to root for and be afraid for while the relationship is perfect to mine for drama and tension

[@Vicus_of_Utrecht]

@@enishi4ty5 Stop drinking.

[@TreyIM22]

I don't agree, at all. Has no teeth to that, and I get that Carpenter never wanted a sequel nor the idea of Michael being related to Laurie, which was perfectly brilliant to leave as is as a one off movie, but he DID the sequel so now there needs to be more meaning to things since he decided to have Michael continue after Laurie. That lil brother-sister twist, I thought, was "genius," even tho Carpenter said he hated the idea when reluctantly coming up with the sequel but, again, he DID the sequel so there needed to be some weight to things.

[@ricHard.18]

I laughed way too hard at Samwise yelling REACH! to Frodo.

[@KHoltzie]

One thing that I’ve always found interesting and chilling at the same time is the way Michael is posed after he falls from the balcony-if you pause the shot and look at it closely his body is posed in the Curse of Thorn symbol…intentional or coincidence viewer be the judge!

[@BuckyBarnesATL]

I live for horror movie talk. Can you do Child’s Play or Nightmare on Elm street? You the man Paul! Cheers from across the pond. 🍻

[@heavyspoilers]

[@BuckyBarnesATL]

@@heavyspoilers you the man!

[@BarryBerryBarry]

I'm so sorry

[@BuccaneerBruce]

I saw this in Theaters here in Kansas City in October of 1978. We did leave feeling like Michael Myers could be out there as Kansas City is right in the middle of the midwest. It felt like Haddonfield. This is still on my list of favorite movies of all time. Well done video here.

[@KHoltzie]

One thing that is always impressed me about the original ‘Halloween’ is the close attention to detail using the colors orange and black to symbolize Halloween-if you look closely at the board review scene in the directors cut you can see the color combination of orange seats and black desks in a lecture hall + Dean Cundey’s cinematography and clever lighting techniques gives us the appearance of an orange couch in the living room of the Doyle house during the ending montage…great subtle tie ins in my opinion 👀

[@SMtWalkerS]

I enjoyed your breakdown and some details and things that I had missed, even though I watch it every year. I watched it on its' initial theatrical release, long ago. I always interpreted it as Michael was initially a normal child, who was invaded by the spirit of Samhain, or the Boogie man. The Boogie Man was always a mysterious and frightening figure in scary tales , and it was never explained how it came to be, or why it attacked children. I like the idea that some things, like evil, can NOT be explained or understood, they just simply ARE. That's why Loomis stops trying to help the murderous child, as he recognizes that it is no longer a child, it is an evil ancient entity. To me, most of the sequels and remakes miss the mark, as they try to explain ad nauseum. Good job!

[@lopirobinson1991]

If you've ever been in a traumatic, violent encounter where you had to use a weapon there's a feeling of dropping after and it's probably disgust at the knife that Laurie felt and is why she dropped it. She thought he was dead and she is horrified by the situation and doesn't want a reminder. "Get this away from me." If it was real she would probably have thrown up too. To me it's some brilliant acting work on Curtis's part. Not sure if that's what she was going for. I've been in quite a few very violent struggles, yes PTSD, and I hate what I get from that scene.

[@SlickVega]

@@heavyspoilersI came here to say this as well, this is one of my top fave youtube channels now. At this point whenever I watch a great movie I come here to watch the heavyspoilers breakdown after!

[@johnepants]

Michael checking the corners is just awesome

[@tjmacvintagecardsnostalgia648]

This was fantastic. Halloween is one of my five favorite movies. I always wondered if there is a continuity error from when he got the mask to when you hear the alarm at the Hardware store. He was presumably wearing the mask for at least a couple of hours before Laurie and Annie see her dad at the Hardware store with the alarm going off.

[@deanpurdie4010]

I'm glad somebody else has noticed this too - I think it is clear he is wearing the mask when he sees Laurie drop off the keys before she goes to school - and the hardware store alarm is still ringing when Laurie has finished school. Assuming the store keeps normal opening hours, surely he would have broken in (hence the alarm) in the early hours when it was shut. So although the sheriff could have been there in the afternoon takings statements, the alarm would surely not have been ringing. Maybe they did it for the joke about "he shouts too"?

[@dylanborecki2975]

I'm pretty sure that when Loomis says "He got hungry" after they find the dead dog, they are referring to Michael's hunger for killing, not his physical hunger.

[@jonvia]

As someone who grew up mostly in the suburbs, this movie changed the way I saw suburbs. Almost a metaphor for "Hey your lawn may look nice in this neighborhood but stiil, you can find evil people there."

[@eg1416]

Dude you make the best videos! Love the in depth breakdowns you do

[@roderick2722]

I’ve seen many breakdowns but this was by far the best! So many details! Great work

[@earlleary]

Just a little thing I've noticed, and I mentioned to Nancy Loomis ( Annie ) when I met her. When she " accidentally " gets locked in fhe laundry room, if you freeze frame it, you'll catch that she is actually locking the door just before she starts tryimg to open it. It's as clear as day. Just a minor thing, but thought it was cool when I first caught it. Very much enjoyed watching this.

[@roberthenrypoet]

I've seen so many of these Halloween breakdowns, and love how there is still so many ways this film can be examined. :)

[@hannahmcdonald2315]

Great video dude! Just a wee point from an Irish gal Samhain is pronounced as sowin even though it looks nothing like it. Would love to see you cover Ringu as it's one of my faves :)

[@schmuelking1535]

honestly I am pleasantly surprised to see there aren't a bunch of people bitching about pronunciation here, and just one person politely informing. Lovely.

[@markchapman5811]

I watched this last night for the first time, so I could watch your breakdown with more context. The movie didn’t scare me but I thought it had an uneasy atmosphere that kept me invested. I see why people hold this as the best slasher movie.

[@Mathewangelo]

Great review! The only thing to point out is that the shadow on the wall in The Thing isn’t Nick Castle, but it’s actually Dick Warlock, who played Michael Myers in Halloween II.

[@fournler6601]

Paul I think you’re onto something with Laurie not being the original target. Michael’s obsession with Laurie starts when she metaphorically inserts the phallus into him, aka being the first person to weaken him

[@Evajeanfreedom]

Love these analysis horror videos - Can't wait to watch the films again and look out for these details!

[@deeosem5723]

This man is the most legendary killer and still makes time to look both ways before crossing traffic 😂😂😂

wow, that's a lot more info about Halloween i did not know. thanks for sharing it with us all, Paul. great job.

[@katmustang7666]

My FAVORITE movie. I've lost count how many times I've already watched it this Halloween season.

[@mudslicker3122]

One thing: No, you wouldn’t swear it was the last day of October. No trees on October 31st in any town in Illinois at that time would look that specific state of full and green. But we appreciated the effort of Carpenter on a bare bones budget. 🎃

[@spectrelead]

Yeah, very rare to see a full-green tree on Halloween in IL. (I grew up in Fulton County, IL.)

[@markmac2206]

i always point out the outdoor laundry room. it was a great tense scene but nobody in Illinois is going outside to do laundry in January.

[@notoriousbmc1]

Samhain is pronounced "sow-n" (sow like the pig) the movies said it Sam Hayn too. Excellent movie and breakdown, as usual

[@TsuriaDragon]

The scariest thing about Micheal is he’s in plain sight in broad daylight and sneaky at nighttime 😮😮😮😮

[@dnice4145]

The opening in Black Christmas which preceeds Halloween also opens from the point of view of the maniac.

[@kareningram6093]

Man, I know it got third place in the poll, but I hope you cover Rosemary's Baby some day. There's not a lot of good analysis videos about it out there and I feel like it's often overlooked and under appreciated in the horror genre because it's not full of blood and gore. I love horror movies and didn't expect much when I watched it, but it left me deeply unsettled.

[@shawnberry760]

What about the fact that the undertaker borrowed his sitting up move from Michael Myers?

[@ragna6410]

Masterpiece. Watched it so often.❤

[@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto]

I think Laurie was intended target simply because she walked on his porch. He stalks her all day, he also knows Laurie is the only one to notice him multiple times stalking her. When they split off onto babysitting houses, he goes after Annie 1st. Why? Because she's Laurie's friend and she is distracted not noticing him a single time. He knocks her off 1st, Linda and Bob show up. He's incredibly patient and methodical. Its worth saying the ghost sheet (& his horror spook house for Laurie to find) is like a real evil version of a Halloween scare prank a 6 year old would think of, presenting the bodies to Laurie as her Halloween Trick is his Halloween Treat. The trick/treat swells a bubble and bursts when he misstabs Laurie and her falling down the stairs. Laurie is the intended central target. Annie, Linda, Bob are props for his big haunted murder house scare for Laurie. He very much intentionally intended to create enough ambiguous concern for Laurie to come over alone so she can find his big Halloween prank: her dead friends on a Halloween display of his haunted house scare. He intended to scare her just before killing. Annie, Bob and Linda are relatively fast efficient kills, with Laurie he wanted to give her a big Halloween scare. I'm sure her evading the stab twice, needle in neck, Hanger in eye and finally knife in the heart was an utter shock to him expecting this to go quicker. This is in my opinion what, how it went. But just like asking was it MacReady or Childs, its an answer of what is in that head of his basing it off intention and action, we just will never know. And that among others is why this film holds up and is still genuinely scary, unlike ALL of the sequels.

[@LalaBee4now]

This is terrific! Thank you

[@harryallen867]

Nicely done Paul, I thought I watched enough breakdowns of Halloween already and I was sceptical.. but you delivered with a whole new perspective. Are you also working on "The Ring" too? I feel like we need this too. The Ring doesn't seem to be covered so much by channels here like Halloween has been.

[@heavyspoilers]

Yeah ring audio is ready, just waiting for the edit, next two weeks I’d imagine

[@harryallen867]

Ahhh legend!! @@heavyspoilers

[@corinaskywalker]

I laughed way too hard at the “evil subscribes tonight” joke 😂

[@jleisner1974]

"Evil subscribes tonight" = Chef's Kiss *and* Sh'baow!

[@him4133]

Fun Fact: It just hit me that Tony Moran is in-fact the older brother of Erin Moran, who played Joanie Cunningham on Happy Days, & Joanie Loves Chachi. I knew his mugshot at 28:12 looked familiar to me. A striking resemblance to his little sis!

[@drbingogh]

Good stuff man, I love the old stuff like this.

[@HowardTheDork]

that bit with ghostface running down the stairs and i'm dead now lol

[@tylerst.francis9126]

Plot Hole: The mask theft doesnt make sense. Michael is wearing the mask when Laurie drops off the keys before school, and it isnt until hours after school that Annie pulls off, and that alarm just happens to shut off during that convo. Meaning: that alarm had been on for over 9 hours, and that the sheriff was just getting there, which makes no sense.

[@jedediaholsen]

oh i wasnt expecting to see this while opening yt. happy halloween :D

[@MrHereWeGoYo]

Great breakdown of #3 on my all-time favorites list (behind The Thing and Alien). However, the shadow in The Thing is actually Dick Warlock. There's a behind the scenes photo of Warlock and Carpenter on the set of Halloween II. Warlock has his head turned and his side profile is a dead ringer.

[@corrosivecabal]

During the scene with Loomis in the phone booth, a train goes by. I think it's in at least one other scene and can be heard in the background of a few scenes. Possibly as a metaphor for the unstoppable force of evil or death.

[@kramalerav]

Eh, that’s a stretch.

[@alexhickenbottom2820]

I always thought Laurie was his target and her friends were just a warm up and to also see how she would react, yeah she was frightened but she fought him back and that’s something Micheal doesn’t anticipate.

[@tegdirb1017]

thank you ! excellent job

[@anthonyboxwell6304]

I love seeing the leaves, and then, in other shots, no leaves and all green trees.. great movie

Also, food for thought. Maybe they should transport Michael on any other day of the year

[@heavyspoilers]

[@rosastephens8966]

Great break down. The incest/murder thing between Michael and his sisters amplified the yeeck factor inside of the overall horror of the film and made it a unique horror story

[@ccaatthheerriinnee]

It’s not a heavy spoilers breakdown without the LOTR reach clip 😂

[@asukalangley6494]

Sheriff Brackett (Lee Brackett) Named after Leigh Brackett who was mostly a science fiction writer who wrote the novelization of The Empire Strikes Back but she also was a writer of the screenplay for Rio Bravo, the movie directed by Howard Hawks, which John Carpenter based Assault on Precinct 13 on. Possibly she is where he got the name. Just a theory.

[@JoeChillton]

Timely as always. Thanks Paul

[@EliteNosferatu]

[@MelancholyRequiem]

6:55 Okay, for real though, Robert Englund always appears to be one of the nicest, chillest actors in interviews and the fact he plays one of the most deplorable slashers ever, Freddy Krueger, is never not shocking to me. He was also fantastic in Strangeland which y'all are missing out on if you haven't seen it.

[@SakuraHeart001]

You forgot the crew members that popped up behind the bush before laurie bumped into the sherrif

[@J.O.R.D]

19:47 both 😂 even without zooming in I can see our boy casually driving past lol

[@Kellbeautiful]

One thing you have to remember is that the budget for this movie was only 320k and was filmed in under a month. A lot of the subtle details and hidden meanings people like to point out are purely coincidence. John carpenter has been on record saying this. They had no idea this movie would ever be what it eventually became. They John was still fresh out of film school and only agreed to make the movie if yablans would put John’s name on the opening credits. Another thing was the face in the promotional poster of the knife and pumpkin. The artist said the face in the hand was neat after being pointed out but never did that intentionally. Great video tho !

[@hansgrueber8169]

20:29 - "New phone, who dis?" courtesy of Dead Meat, lmao!!

[@deanpurdie4010]

Am I right in thinking that Loomis was staking out the Myers house and only spotted the stolen Smith's Grove car after some time? Surely he would have seen that straight away? The way I remember it, he just stands on the same spot for hours and then sees the car when he bothers to survey the street behind him.

[@erikagholston6610]

The music is what makes this movie so scary.

[@adopequeenatyrantkingaboss8057]

When my father was in his 40s &50s, he was a dead ringer for Donald Pleasance in this movie. Ironically, it was the same time this movie came out. RIP to both men.

[@surf101-]

[@bethb4432]

So glad I stayed til the end to hear that you’d not only still be doing The Ring but also combined with Ringu. I can’t wait. The Ring is my favorite horror movie of all time.

[@boris1387]

Great stuff🎃🎃

[@Looking.for.Lilith]

Sometimes I just watch heavy spoilers instead of watching the actual show or movie

[@DREAMVILLAIN_01]

Also, as the flim goes on after the asylum escape, we see michael from a distance, and then when ever we see any scene with michael in he progressively gets closer and closer to his victims, like a storm coming

[@MichaelLopresto]

Donald Pleasance was an incredible villain in Wake in Fright. Very underrated. Possibly his best role.

[@kramalerav]

Great hidden gem of a film, Wake in Fright. Donald nailed the subtle Australian accent in the role.

[@LoneWolf_Cub_Ogami_Itto]

I live 70 miles north on I-65N from Smith's Grove and its former Smith's Grove Sanitarium, living in Hardin County, another KY place mentioned in Halloween 2. The Haddonfield Memorial Hospital logo is identical to Hardin Memorial Hospital, likely a coincidence but still neat.

[@mrmhj9925]

What you said about our minds creating the violence has the same effect in the film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. People swore they saw a bloodbath of people being slaughtered which there were but not in a gory fashion as most modern horror is today. It’s a crazy effect. I had the same feeling watching Texas Chainsaw and Halloween. Thinking there was a lot of blood. Really enjoyed this. Nice work 👍

I’d follow you again if I could, just for the “evil subscribes tonight” line. 😂😂😂😂

[@jesterskully563]

Nice work

[@Lucky_Chase]

I just think Laurie was more aware of her surroundings, and that's why she survived.

[@TristanHathaway]

Fun note: My younger brother played Joey in the 1993 Dennis the Menace. Dennis the Menace was directed by Nick Castle.

[@eyecontactleadsto]

I always thought the 'He got hungry' line was more in reference to his appetite for killing rather than a literal hunger of eating the dog lol

[@farkle4207]

I think story wise the reason he dons a mask as an adult is because he first killed wearing a mask and therefore associates the two things. The reason the creators put him in a mask is to make him harder to identify. Think a man in a mask could be anyone even someone you know. That makes the character more unsettling.

[@kramalerav]

And what’s more, there is no indication in the original film that he was completely mute while being locked away at the asylum. And while I’m pretty sure he wasn’t an otherwise gregarious patient, he probably only became the silent stalker after donning that mask.

[@tylerst.francis9126]

I always wanted an added scene: so Michael follows Annie and Laurie to their babysitting homes. In his car is the gravestone. Later, Loomis finds Michaels vehicle down the street from the Myers house, blocks away. Meaning at some point during Michaels stalking the babysitters he drops the headstone off in bushes somewhere, drives back to the Myers house so his vehicle isnt spotted where he is and then he subsequently walks back to where Annie and Laurie are, which is a hilarious sequence of events to picture and seemingly way to cunning for Michael to do. It was simply a device to let Loomis in on the fact that Michael already came home and isnt coming back, but fails to fit into the timeline or hilarity of him just casually walking back to the babysitters

[@henrykujawa4427]

Totally-unrelated trivia: the cemetery caretaker is played by Arthur Malet. Among his countless roles, was "Mr. Dawes, Jr.", son of the owner of the Fidelity Fediciary Bank, who was played under HEAVY make-up, by Dick Van Dyke in "MARY POPPINS" (1964). The same year he did "HALLOWEEN", he also appeared in the 3rd episode of "WKRP", the one about the "radio preacher", in which he played a Catholic Priest. CBS was so worried the episode might offend people, they held it back until the summer reruns months later, but, it really should be watched right after the 2-part pilot. (I'm genuinley disappointed that the Shout Factory box set has the episodes in broadcast order, as they are MANY places where production order makes much more sense.)
