We'll explore Carpenter's groundbreaking camera techniques that turned every corner of Haddonfield into an eerie stage for the silent terror that is Michael Myers, while also serenading your ears with a discussion of that iconic score—crafted in just three days yet haunting us for decades. And who could ignore the meticulous sound design that made Michael's breath a character of its own?
