Jamie Lee Curtis thinks 'Halloween' is one of the most successful horror franchises of all time because the movies have great "storytelling". The 62-year-old actress - who first played Laurie Strode in John Carpenter's 1978 original - believes that, unlike other scary movies she refused to name, the slasher films do not rely on trickery to scare the audience.

Jamie Lee Curtis' parents Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh struggled to accept their careers were over. The 'True Lies' star's father and mother were Hollywood royalty but she admits it was tough to see them both try and remain relevant and employable as they aged and the movie work they still craved dried up for them. Jamie could see that what was particularly hard for Tony and Janet - who were married from 1951 until 1962 - was that their fame didn't diminish in the same way that their work did. Speaking on the 'PEOPLE in the 90s' podcast, she said: "I'm the child of movie stars. I watched my par...
