It's Halloween Again

I took the day off and just kind of taking it easy as the Halloween films are ongoing thanks to AMC Fear Fest marathon, as they are on rotation. I'll go to my Blu to legit watch the original tonight probably. I can say at 39, my fondest memory of Halloween (1978) was a Halloween night when I was a kid after trick or treating, getting a chance to hang out afterwards at my grandmother's house where my cousin once lived, arriving to his room where the film was on HBO. I almost want to say it was around 87 or 88. I can't be too sure on the exact time, but it was late 80s. Maybe a bit earlier perhaps. It was an awesome time to be alive, as cable and VHS were taking shape and I was at the right influential age, this was on at exactly when it needed to be. Loomis prowling the streets for Michael, Laurie trying to defend herself against the boogeyman, and Carpenter's score pressing all the right buttons, I knew as a youth this would be a lifelong relationship. It's cool I'm not alone.
