    John didn't want to do a second film, he was pressured to do so and came up with the whole sister thing. The first Halloween was initially called The Babysitter Murders, and Laurie was chosen because she dropped the keys off at the Myers house. It was as simple as that. People like to talk up Halloween like it's some great story, but that movie is almost all form. If anything f----- up the franchise, it was going deeper down the rabbit hole of Michael's mythology that was never supposed to exist in the first place. He's not a person, he's "the shape".

    Speaking of, I re-watched The Fog last night. Carpenter is the greatest.

    I watched It Follows and Lights Out tonight. I really really liked It Follows. The way the entity moved so slowly and you’re sometimes not quite sure who it is was so simple and effective. Lights Out was good too but it relied on a few typical horror cliches. Not too much though. It was decent.

    "I don’t know how to describe it. It’s almost an alternative reality. It picks up after the first one and it pretends that none of the other [sequels] were made. It’s gonna be fun. There’s a really talented director and it was well-written. I’m impressed" - John carpenter


    So its not picking up after two:emwtf1:its picking up after 1?

    It's still really good, but the original is perfect

    I own both on bluray. Halloween II has to be one of my favorite horror sequels of all time. No it’s not the original. Not even close. But nothing is.

    Saw mother! last night, d--- it's pretty crazy. You have to understand the allegory of it or you'll be confused as f--- throughout the movie..

    Wouldn't really call it a horror movie tbh. I liked it, pretty sad overall though.

    Btw talking about Halloween @Changeling @DetroitSkills @Bleed etc

    After H2, Halloween 3 happened. The idea was to make a new Halloween related story every year. But fans bitching about my absence made them go back to Halloween 4, Return.

    I honestly think they should have went with the original idea. Halloween 3 is underrated imo.

    Trick r Treat is a perfect example of a movie they could have made -or even make seperate stories of it- . Same goes for Tales of Halloween, both classics.

    It was probably already mentioned but the new Annabelle is pretty scary, a lot better than the first one

    Oh, and check out the work of Gregary Crewdson. Mitchell said his photography inspired the look of It Follows. I like his work more than I like the movie tbh.
