Tell us: how does it feel to watch a classic film on first release?

The much-hyped release of the latest Halloween installment (tipped to break records with a $70m opening) has led many to think back to the film that started it all back in 1978.

While there have been rankings aplenty, there’s also been a rather fascinating video going viral that gives us an idea of what it would have been like to see the original on the big screen. Audio from the time has been matched with remastered footage and the result is a nifty leap back in time when Michael Myers was still a terrifyingly unknown quantity.

We want to hear about your experience of seeing a classic film in the cinema for the first time. Were you clutching your armrests through the first scene of Jaws in 1975? Do you remember going Back to the Future in 1985? Was your jaw on the sticky floor at Seven’s shock ending in 1995? Tell us all about in the comments below.
