While Halloween wasn’t the first slasher film, it was the first smash hit slasher and along with 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's' Leatherface, ushered in a whole era of masked and deformed boogie men at the cinema and video store throughout the 80's and 90's.
But beyond the 1978 masterpiece, the franchise quickly became a mess. With its creator trying to change its purpose to an anthology series and quickly giving up, to a series that was rebooted and rebooted time and again with an increasingly large list of colorful characters involved in production.
Including the 2018 movie, the franchise has been restarted no less than five times. In this video, we will examine the history of Halloween, the many behind the scenes fights, and what future the most recent franchise rebirth will bring.
