Happy Halloween!

5 Fun Facts about the movie #Halloween!

1.      Halloween’s total budget was $320,000. It grossed $70 million in initial release — making it the most profitable independent film ever made until 1999’s The Blair Witch Project,” (http://flavorwire.com/421737/50-things-you-didnt-know-about-halloween/, staff).

2.      The writers and producers wanted it to be released during the holidays! So, time was tight- they had four weeks, to produce, shoot, and edit the movie.

3.      “That four weeks of prep included writing the script; Carpenter had been hired merely on the basis of the horror premise. He spent three weeks writing the film with producer (and lover) Debra Hill. She wrote most of the dialogue for the female characters, taking great pains to give their characters real authenticity,” ((http://flavorwire.com/421737/50-things-you-didnt-know-about-halloween/, staff).

4.      Curtis was not Carpenter’s first choice for the film (for Laurie). Annie Lockhart turned his him down.

5.      “Soles’ other best-known role in the 1970s was Allan Arkush’s Rock ‘n’ Roll High School, which was also shot by Halloween’s director of photography, Dean Cundey,” (http://flavorwire.com/421737/50-things-you-didnt-know-about-halloween/, staff).
