If you don't appreciate Halloween, you should probably never watch a horror movie again.

I mean I liked the overall premise of the movie. It was gripping & intense at some parts but it was just too slow paced for me. Idk, I didn't like how it took the killer like 5 hours to kill Jamie Lee Curtis's friend, like it just kept dragging on.
It wasn't that bad, but maybe I was expecting something on the level of Psycho or The Shinning. since this movie is also such a cult classic.

Maybe this is your first time watching an old horror movie? They're obviously more slow-paced and have to rely more on the story and musical score since special effects weren't that grandiose then. But you gotta appreciate them for what they are. And what makes the old movies really awesome is that they were able to deliver scare-wise working with so little.

No, the oldest horror movie that I've seen is Psycho & it's one of my all time favorites. Also, The Shinning, which came out 2 years after Halloween, so its not because the movie is old.
And I don't agree with the "they were slow paced because they had to rely more on the story & score" because Psycho, which is a lot older than Halloween and The Shinning, which came out around the same time, are two of the BEST horror movies to have been ever made. They didn't have special effects or anything like that, either. They also relied on the story and the score, but they moved at a pace, which kept the viewer interested.
