Still a pretty simple sequence, really. But John Carpenter's keyboard and music hook melody, along with that eerie pumpkin and camera work, made this (like the film) iconic. BTW, this film back on the big screen tomorrow and next Tuesday in a few theaters nationwide (I'm going). Good one, Patti.
It's here too but I am too scared to see it on the big screen.
Really like it. one of the most recognizable themes ever in the movies. and definitely eerie.
