Halloween (1978): "Babies Beware"

We’ve gotta admit it: We were a little nervous to dip our toes into one of the most famous franchises around, but with the end of April right around the corner, we knew it was time. We’re starting the six month countdown to the spookiest day of the year by celebrating the holiday’s half-birthday the most iconic way we know how: with Halloween (1978). The film that launched Michael Myers to horror icon status and kicked off Freaky Friday star Jamie Lee Curtis’s career as a scream queen, John Carpenter’s classic knows just how to set the mood.
