Well, even in the case of Halloween, I think you\'re incorrect. I mean, DEAN CUNDEY was the director of photography. His resume is ridiculously impressive, as is his talent for cinematography. He would not leave something as important as a main character\'s cotume to chance. I\'m sure he spoke with Carpenter or Hill about how his approach would affect the final image, including the color palette of the characters, their costumes, and the setting. There\'s a reason that film was critically acclaimed, while others that were very similar were panned: the quality of the vision and the quality of the craftsman.
ALSO, watch the entire film of ANB (or Halloween 1 or 2, for that matter). In context of the respective photography styles, it\'s clear that the coveralls were INTENDED to come off as blue. Just because most of us have seen these movies too many times, and have desensitized ourselves to the experience doesn\'t mean that this was not the case.
