Rated Halloween 5/10

First off, it's super impressive that John Carpenter co-wrote, directed and scored this.

It didn't really land for me, though. The build up is very slow, and the setting and main characters have that 60s-Americana vibe ala American Graffiti which I just don't get on with at all. The final 10 minutes or so were really good, but it was a slog to get there.

Jamie Lee Curtis was great, and I liked the score -- the tubular-bells-esque leitmotif worked really well.
