meh, i dunno how people rate the the original Texas chainsaw - it was pretty dull imo, the remake was far superior.
Michael myers is the epitomy of Horror - i mean, for christs sake, every Halloween, thousands of people walk around wearing his mask all over the world. Not really the same feel with Leatherface.
Plus Halloween just had more atmosphere than TCM, John Carpenter delivered an absolute classic on a shoe string budget and it became a world famous movie with a cult following.
When people think slash, they think Knife, not chainsaw. Halloween was the protagonist that started it all.
Then we get to Freddy......
Oh dear. What a lame character. I was not impressed by any of those films, the gore factor was completely uncalled for and they made a supposedly 'scary' character.......wait for it......FUNNY. What a sham.
I watched the top one hundred horror films over here in the UK a few months back and neither Friday the 13th or nightmare on Elm street got even close to Halloween in the rankings. 9Halloween was in the top 10 - the 'others' were between 20 & 50
