MacReady Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Literally the most boring slasher series of films there is. Wish they'd just let it die. The best movie in the franchise was the third one where they tried to change it up, and it's widely hated. I can get behind horror franchises that play up the horror elements and have bigger hints of the supernatural, but this one is just somebody with autism running around with a knife and killing people. I'm not trying to poke fun at autism with that statement, I just find it to be an accurate description of the Halloween series. The most exciting thing about this movie is that John Carpenter is involved in filmmaking again, and he's said he might get behind the camera again at some point. My dream is still alive.

When it comes to the series you could make that case, but the Original is a classic. Michael as The Shape was truely one o the most terrifying things as a kid. When he was just an unstoppable force of evil. And from some stuff that was reported long ago, I think they were looking to go back from that point, resulting in a retcon of everything after the first.

And in no way can I get behind this. The best? It had a chance to be a decent little horror film if they had not attached the "Halloween" Franchise to it, but it is in no way some great movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THESKINSFAN21 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I love the Halloween franchise. I love nostalgia and Halloween does it for me even though Friday the 13th is my favorite slasher franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant best of the franchise after the first one. I still enjoyed the third one more than the original though. Halloween might have been scarier as a kid, but I saw it for the first time at about 24 years old. Not frightening or interesting at all. The movie seemed to take place in a world where there wasn't such a thing as private gun ownership, and a gun solves everything about the movie. That's not the case with superior slasher/horror movies with that fantastical / horror angle. A gun does nothing against Jason, Freddy, Pinhead, Chucky, Candyman, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PARROTHEAD Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Looks just like the last couple Halloween reboots. And not near as good as Rob Zombies projection of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Looks (visually) way better than any of the reboots. Im actually loving the crazy gun lady vibe for Laurie Strode. And it would be pretty sweet if in a twist she might be going crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamRod Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 So this is a sequel to the original ‘78 Halloween but they share the same title? Doesn’t make much sense to me but whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Ignoring all of the sequels and retconning Laurie and Michael as no longer being siblings. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefs82 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I personally loved the Rob zombie movie; this one just looks boring to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D82 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Anything put out by Zombie regarding Halloween was awful. This looks somewhat promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they though? It could be a social media reference to fake news and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
