Proof that even horror has its merits, Variety reports today that the genre classic HALLOWEEN has been included as one of the 25 movies entered this year into the National Film Registry! Not bad for a film that was originally disliked upon it’s initial release, and proof that not even crappy sequels (or remake) can tarnish the original! On a side note, one of Arrow’s faves, Sylvester Stallone, is joining Michael Myers with ROCKY.

HALLOWEEN joins other notable horror films which include:

  • BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN
  • DRACULA
  • THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER (both the 1920’s short and the 1960’s film)
  • FRANKENSTEIN
  • 1956’s INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS
  • JAWS
  • KING KONG
  • NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD
  • PSYCHO
  • ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW
  • THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD
  • VERTIGO
  • YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
