Halloween (Gordon-Green, October 19, 2018) Movie • Page 38

Playing in IMAX starting Friday for a one week engagement

 

A few similarities to 4:

Mike escapes while being transferred.

Kills at a gas station / steals a car.

Boyfriend gets caught with another chick.

 

Hahaha I realized this when I started describing 4 to my wife who’s pretty unfamiliar with the series.

 

Also a doctor and a cop lookin around for Micheal. Also our main characters hunker down and wait for Micheal to attack.

I wonder what a truly unique Halloween sequel (that still involves Micheal) could be.

 

That cameo!

 

H20 was pretty unique I thought. They had a couple of obvious and purposeful callbacks to the original but otherwise, it seems pretty different from the rest of them.

 

True, especially the location not being haddonfield.

 

Saw it again. Lots of dopey stuff but I love it.

 

Yeah this is even better on second viewing and I’ll hear no criticism! Haha but I really love this and I’d be into a sequel with the Strodes but I don’t know where it would go.

 

Just saw it again tonight and probably liked it even more tbh.

 

The more that you pick at it, the more you realize this sequel is an entire culmination of the sequels plus the original in a sense.

 

Did some pumpkin carving last night with friends. Fucked the top lip up a bit, but you get the idea.

 

Looks Cap'n Michael Crunch

 

I used a cheap carving set from Wal Mart. Also my first time doing a carving that wasn’t actually cutting out the pumpkin.

 

Please believe, I am not making fun. That is light years better than I can dream to carve. Good job!

 

No offense taken! The crunch reference is great. When we finished last night we all kept calling it Stache Mike.

 

If we don't get Macaulay on BoTW, I'm gonna flip

 

For sure he’s going to be on BoTW and AVGN

 

This wasn't perfect, but it was a total blast beginning-to-end and succeeded, imo, in calling back to the original (and franchise as a whole) while simultaneously working as a standalone film. Easily the best since the OG Halloween 2. Cinematagrophy and score were so so good.

Karen's "gotcha" moment and Laurie's "Happy Halloween" line had me grinning so hard.

 

I stand by my thoughts that it should have been "Happy Halloween Motherfucker" haha.

 

Re-watched 5 today. Boy that was kinda hard to get through. Sits right above resurrection as the worst.

 

I’m torn between 5 and 6 being the second-worst behind resurrection. 5 has terrible direction and 6 has a terrible plot.

 

They're both horrible.

 

I feel like the 2nd Rob Zombie one is a clear cut worst for me.

 

I loathe both zombie films. I like 5 + 6 more than most. Resurrection never happened.
