5 classic movies everyone must see this Halloween.

(Baonghean.vn) - Halloween is often remembered as a festival of ghosts and ghouls. This day would be rather dull without a little bit of fear. And a horror movie with equally gloomy settings would certainly be the right choice for this special holiday. Check out and choose one of these 5 classic films from around the world for this special occasion!

1. Halloween (1978)

Fans of the horror genre are undoubtedly familiar with this highly successful film for the Halloween holiday. It's the first film in director John Carpenter's Halloween series. The movie is set in a fictional Midwestern city in Haddonfield, Illinois.

In 1963, on Halloween night, six-year-old Michael Myers murdered his own sister with a kitchen knife. Fifteen years later, after escaping from a psychiatric institution, he returned and resumed his sick pleasure of killing. He secretly stalked a young woman named Laurie Strode and sought to harm her.

Dr. Samuel Loomis, who had treated Michael for nearly 15 years, suspected his intentions and pursued him to prevent him from killing again. How did Samuel manage to stop this evil demon before he wreaked havoc on the Midwestern town? If you're looking for a movie that truly captures the spooky feeling of Halloween, then "Halloween" is definitely at the top of the list.

2. Trick 'r treat (2008)

The film's title is also a very typical children's game on Halloween night: children carry a basket and go door-to-door asking, "Trick or treat?" This film is a compilation of four spooky Halloween stories.

The only thing that connects all four stories is the appearance of a mysterious young trick-or-treat player named Sam with a pumpkin mask in each story.

A former headmaster who was once a serial killer; a young girl chased by a monstrous figure in a red cloak during a town festival; a group of mischievous youngsters who accidentally uncover a horrifying secret; an old man living in seclusion but always prone to causing trouble. All of them are visited by the mysterious boy…

Goblins, monsters, vampires, and the spooky pranks of Halloween seem to have become reality, and death is approaching… How will people survive the most terrifying and horrific night of the year?

3. The Ring (2002)

This is definitely a must-see for horror movie fans this Halloween. A remake of a Japanese film called "Ringu," the movie is about a cursed videotape that causes viewers to die within seven days.

Rachel, investigating the mysterious death of her granddaughter, travels to the village the victim had visited and watches the mysterious videotape. She receives a phone call informing her that she has seven days to die. While Rachel tries to save her own life, unfortunately, her young son accidentally watches the tape.

Suspenseful and thrilling until the very last minute, the film is a race against time for Rachel to save herself and her son from death. “The Ring” is definitely not a film for the faint of heart!

4. The Scream horror film series

The mysterious Ghostface mask, a beloved Halloween accessory, originated from the hit "Scream" series. To this day, "Scream," along with the mysterious masked killer Ghostface who murders teenagers, remains an iconic symbol of the horror film world.

This is also considered one of the best teen horror movies. A horror film with a simple yet clever plot, mixed with a touch of humor, will surely give you an enjoyable Halloween!

5. Friday the 3rd

It would be remiss not to mention the unlucky Friday the 13th and the incredibly popular movie about it on Halloween.

Sean Cunningham's "Friday the 13th" tells the story of a group of young people who are murdered one by one while trying to reopen an abandoned underground bunker.

Horror and dread permeate every frame of the film. The movie was so successful that a sequel was made, followed by many other spin-off films.
