    True. Theatre's opened last weekend again so went to S5 right away!

    Also, scream 5 kinda hinted at a scream 6 in some ways tbh

    Yeah 3 is a major one. Not the best but definitely important. 4 was also good, loved it. Scream fans will all love 5 I'm sure. New characters are cool, and some surprise appearances and connections to old characters too. And ofc Sidney and Gale >>>

    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 miss when Michael was just a f---ing creepy stalker with no magical powers.

    Halloween 1978 still the GOAT horror movie for me. But all the other Halloweens have been pretty much trash since.
