John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN (1978, Lionsgate 4K UHD Blu-ray) with the 1994 Criterion Collection Laserdisc commentary track. [The YouTube video with the commentary also includes the Laserdisc movie transfer; it'll probably be taken down soon]
Watched both Lionsgate and Shout! Factory's 4K UHD's of "Halloween" back-to-back on the same 65" screen with the same UHD player. While the new Shout! Factory transger is slightly more colorful in daytime scenes, I couldn't notice any major difference between them. I'm keeping the Shout! Factory and selling the Lionsgate, but only because the former comes with more bonus features. Visually they're nearly identical, IMHO.
Legitimate question for anyone who has seen this that isn't spoilery really.
Why is this the title of the movie? Like...because they are finding out about their personal secrets? Is "your house" a metaphor for "your own personal secrets that you keep hidden INSIDE YOURself"?
Guess so. Never mind and thank you for all the help!
