No, Hereditary is by Ari Aster (Midsommar). Peele also worked in another movie I didn't like, the one with Janelle Monae, Antebellum.

Then its 50/50 since I liked Hereditary. Same with Jordan, Get Out was good, US s----d a--- imo

I watched it recently. Gotta be honest, i wasn’t feeling it at all. Turned it off after 50 minutes. Has to be one of the worst ones imo.

I think I didn't see 4th one yet. I liked first one, but d---, I watched it so long ago I dont remember anything. How's the 5th one?
Click to expand...

I loved it. Started out a little slow but the combo of new and old characters wad great tbh. Also it was a lot bloodier and more gore. Kinda like Halloween Kills. Except this didn't have a stupid mob lol. In the end the OG characters >

Lots of nice twists though.

Detroit24 said

havent watched it yet but plan on soon...

love that the cast looks good as the usual characters are there too. It’s great having originals neve Campbell, Courtney cox, arquette in it.

Always love the cat and mouse game of figuring out who ghost face is every film

time flies! S4 was 2011!

I’m assuming they mention what happened to Kirby? From the last film? Lol
Click to expand...

Yeah still having them around is cool. Their role isn't as big as in the first 4 though but still a major one of course.

Yess they do explain what happened to Kirby!!

So, Halloween Kills.

There are a few things very obvious to me: Halloween 2018 made Michael return, and Halloween Ends is where he, and probably Laurie too, will die. Then the writers had to come up with material for the middle movie.... and it clearly shows. Sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a bad way.

Lets start at the beginning. Hawkins was clearly dead lol. But they decided to keep him alive for his flashback story. And that was a great thing. Loved how they re-created that 1978 style, Michaels old style, the chase around the neighborhood. Also think they did an awesome job w Loomis. Yeah his voice could have been better but glad they didn't just had some hologram or other technolgy here and just made someone look like him.

The first 12 minutes are so f---ing good.

The second thing they did is bringing back characters (and actors) from the first movie. They sit around in a bar talking about what happened. It was fun to see Marion, but I don't remember her being from Haddonfield? It was kinda weird having her there with the locals.
I did like the Lindsey flasbacks to Halloween 1 and 2 -also, didn't H2 got de-canonized-?

Then its back to where part 1 (or actually 2) left off.

For the rest of the movie I feel like there is too much going on. So many back and forth.

Just like in H2018 I gotta say, Andi (Alyson) and Jude (Karen) do an AMAZING job. Love their acting and characters.
I also think, and that is important to me, the Halloween spirit is in here. Love that.

The kills were a lot more violent, but aside from Cameron and that drone guy (six knives in him, which was a little too much) that didn't really bother me. His killings got way more violent in the other sequels as well. The whole taking out the firesquad scene and the mob at the end were a little too much Jason Voorhees style for me though. So I'm not really happy with that. Why did they change him in such an angry person driven by emotion? In H1 he was emotionless, now he's staging crime scenes, stabbing people that are already dead? Knocking on the door and running to the other side?? That kind of bs is so not him. I know he did the same in H20 w that girl but still.

Then the supporting characters; it was fun to see them back, but I wish there was more purpose to them. Marion got back only to get killed after her gun chocked lol. I wanted to say killed again but forgot H20 didn't excist here.
Tommy Doyle returned as the leader of the g--- but also the most annoying character in the whole movie. Remember that scared little p---- from part 1? I said this earlier, I liked Paul Rudds version in H6 waay much. Dude was so awful here lol. And, H6 Tommy thought; 'hey if I cant k--- him, maybe just destroy his body and cut off his head so he cant do s---'... but here, an entire group of people hits the man with a bat and wooden sticks, did they forget he got shot, stabbed and burned already?? My god how stupid.

Bracket too, fun to see him but he had that one 'everyone's entitled to one good scare' (haha!) and he's killed lol.

Lindsey is the only one I did like; she was brave but still terrified, as anyone in their right mind would be. Why the f--- would you chase him around after knowing what he's capable off? I really hope she gets a good part in HE as well and doesn't get killed easily.

So, Tommy was in this movie way too much.

Then the writers thought; lets make Halloween Kills even bigger than it should be! And they created this whole angry mob story. Its obvious they wanted to add in some riots because of everything that happened in US. "The system failed" Laurie said. Angry people killing an innocent man, making them all monsters. It was so painfully obvious. The poor umbrella man, also a storyline that did not add anything to the Halloween franchise.

They should have kept it smaller. This angry town people chasing Myers isn't new: in Halloween 4 we saw Earl and the g--- do the same. They also got killed, but it was a lot more fun and effective than hundreds of losers screaming 'evil dies tonight' lol. It was clearly a '2020' thing they wanted to add.

I did like them looking for Myers in small groups and the movie had a lot of scenes I did like;

The couple being pranked by those kids. Their deaths were a little corny (little john? Yes big john!) was funny one time but not 5 or 6 times. Also liked the silver shamrock masks and that scene with lindsey/marion/the doctors. The flasbacks as I said, and almost every scene that had Karen or Andy in it. Except the very last... I already knew she would die but man that s----d. Laurie was a side character here, but thats no surprise. Part 3 will be about Laurie and Michael, HK was for side stories and other characters to shine. Some of them did, some clearly didn't.

Honestly, how Halloween Ends will turn out is important for how I feel about this movie. If Michael goes for a Jason rampage, like some Zombie killer, keep. But if he stays (sort of) human and eventually dies as a human, I'm fine. As I said at the start, this was such an obvious 'middle' movie. It didn't move the story along really, I just hope they don't go too much in a different direction w his character.

If they got rid of the angry mob bs and kept it more small and simple, I would have loved this movie. Honestly would have loved that they brought a small group and make them work together to eventually k--- Michael (Bracket, Marion, Tommy, Lindsey, the Strode women). So basically, what happened here but then as the final ending, w Laurie cutting his body in pieces after they beat him up. But it will probably be one person killing him.... sad.

All of this rambling aside, it did stuck with me. So this is definitely not the last watch. I hope they do this justice in part 3 (4) !

Music was again gr8 btw!

Probably 6/10 for me as of now.

I thought he always kinda staged weird s--- to creep people out I.e. the head jack-o'-lantern in 2018 or him dressing as the ghost in the original I just thought they were showing what goes into him doing s--- like that. It did come across as odd though.

I'm interested in what's gonna piss people off in Ends since this movie already rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.

I think maybe just the look. Very iconic. I enjoy the F13th franchise more than Halloween or Elm St as well.
Click to expand...

Yeah, Jason always looked the most menacing to me too.

For me personally, I always ranked Freddy above the other two because of the whole gets you in your dreams thing. Literally zero ways to avoid that. Great concept imo. Really hate how after 3 he just became too goofy.

Thoughts on the 2009 Friday the 13th reboot?
What did you think of Freddy vs Jason?

Fiance and I are gonna be watching two horror flicks a night in October. We're leading up to it by watching one a day this month. Candyman (the OG and the new one), Scream (she hadn't seen it til the other day), and we watched the two parter first episode of American Horror Stories. It started off great but the second hour kinda fell flat, in true AHS fashion lol

Carnifex said

Anyone watch the new candy man? @BIGFOOT
Click to expand...

I saw it a few nights ago. It's awesome. It's a direct sequel to the first one in the same way the new Halloween movies are a sequel to the first Halloween. It's modern but uses the events of the first movie as the backstory. You can just watch the first one and then this one.
