I loved working with Jamie Lee Curtis, and I felt she was a wonderful actress even that early in her career.

I believe you can frighten people without showing their heads caved-in.

Loomis has always felt himself responsible for the fact that he did not stop Michael when he first murdered his sister, and so he's got that guilt to live with.

The process of building a part doesn't really stop.

The first Halloween was very well made. The second one was also well made, though I didn't like it as well as the first one. The third one had nothing to do with the series at all and perhaps shouldn't have been made at all.

I think people have a tendency to read into more than there is.

I was offered a choice of a flat salary up front or a percentage of the film's future earnings. I took the up front money. Nobody could have figured what Halloween would ultimately become.
