Title: Arguably the BEST Halloween sequel ever!!
Review: This Halloween movie is excellent! A real return to form! Technically, this is the first horror movie of the #MeToo era, and what a movie it is. The Halloween Franchise had been a bit stalled up to this point. With nowhere left to go after Rob Zombieâs reimagining, Blumhouse Studios came up with a great idea: Discount every sequel after the 1978 original and begin 40 years later setting up a whole new Timeline.Writers Danny McBride and Jeff Fradley, and director David Gordon Green have done their homework. They have apparently gone back over the original film with a fine-tooth comb and are going to bring us a new trilogy packed with familiar characters coming back after all these years. One example of this is Cameron Elam, the boy Laurieâs granddaughter Allyson dates. His dad, Lonnie Elam, is also mentioned in the film; Lonnie is the little kid in the original that Dr. Loomis scares by yelling at him to get off the Myersâ front porch. There are dozens of these Easter Eggs peppered throughout the film giving a little nod to all the sequels that came before it. That also happens to be the biggest complaint from most reviewers; the movie is too much of an homage to the original and the sequels to the point that some scenes and kills are filmed in the same manner. Hereâs an Easter Egg that was really subtle: After learning that Michael escaped the transfer Deputy Frank Hawkins, who arrested Michael in 1978, tries to convince Sheriff Barker of how dangerous he is. Hawkins refers to the incident in â78 as the Babysitter murders. That was John Carpenterâs original title for the film before it was changed to Halloween.So, itâs 4 decades later and that should make Michael Myers about 61. Not the ideal age to start a new killing spree, but hey, he looks like heâs in âShapeâ. The movie establishes right away that Michael Myers is human and has no âsupernatural abilitiesâ. When watching the Halloween movies, it can be fun to count the victims and how they die, but hereâs something different to do: count Michaelâs injuries. When the movie opens Michael is shown outside on the courtyard at Smithâs Grove, you can clearly see his left eye is milky white due to Laurie sticking a wire coat hanger in it. An injury sustained 40 years earlier. Also, in a Deleted Scene, Laurie is shown to have a scar on her left shoulder from the night she faced off with The Shape all those years ago. With the filmmakers taking the time to put these past wounds in the film, it seems significant and HIGHLY likely that Michaelâs injuries will accumulate over the course of these 3 films leading to his eventual demise/ defeat in Halloween Ends as has been teased. Weâll see.Some of these injuries may not seem like much, but again, an accumulation effect should start to occur.Michaelâs Injuries:Hit on left side of face with a crowbarHit across left arm with a wooden chairShot in the back of left shoulder with a revolverHit deliberately while on foot by a speeding police SUVKnocked unconscious by landing on the pavement from being hit so hard from that last one2 fingers on left hand blown off with a shotgun; Pinky and Ring fingerGrazing shot on right side of neck with a rifleStabbed in the back with a large kitchen knifeSmacked across the right side of the face and an uppercut to the chin with a cast iron skilletFell backwards down a flight of wood stairs headfirst b/c of that last oneStabbed with a large kitchen knife on top of right shoulderSide of the wrist on right hand slashed with a large kitchen knifeKicked in the faceLeft to die, trapped in the basement of a house on fireâ¦ESCAPESMichael is a mess going into Halloween Kills, which is getting buzz that itâs THIS movie on speed. Never in ANY of the sequels has Michael sustained such injuries. Depending on what happens in the next installment, Halloween Ends might be a little rough for The Shape. As far as the Strode women go, they inflicted most of the damage to Michael in this film and all walked away to fight another day, or until later that same night, that is.Thanks for taking the time to read this review. I know it's long!

Title: The best sequel of the franchise
Review: Anyone who is a fan of the Halloween franchise knows that the various sequels have ranged from good, to decent, to absolute garbage. And, of course, the sequel that wasn't, Halloween 3. I think everyone has slightly different ideas about which sequels fall into what categories, but for me Halloween 6 and 8 fall into the absolute garbage category (although I think 6 had some potential as a story, it was just executed horribly and suffered massive rewrites and the death of Donald Pleasance), and Halloween 4 and H20 fall within the good category.This sequel is a complete reboot of the series, acknowledging that only the original movie existed, and is almost a "what if" scenario, opinening what if Michael had been caught at the end of the first movie, and held in Smith's Grove for 40-years. It was written by David Gordon Green, Jeff Fradley, Danny McBride, mostly known for the comedy genre, directed by David Gordon Green, and bringing back Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode. It also brought John Carpenter back into the fold as executive producer and co-composer. Die-hard Halloween nerds will know that his name was included on many of the other sequels but he never had anything to do with them, just getting royalty rights. He famously never wanted the movie to go any farther than the first one, and if there was going to be a franchise he wanted it to be like Season of the Witch, without the Michael Myers character.Curtis, aside from playing Laurie, was also an executive producer on the movie. Of course, her character was killed off in Halloween 8, hence the need for the total reboot. In this version, Laurie is basically a basket-case who is estranged from her daughter ( played by Judy Greer) and granddaughter (played by Andi Matichak) and has been readying herself for 40-years for Michael to come back. She lives alone in the woods in what can only be described as a compound with lots of surveillance and guns. Curtis does a great job with this version of the character and does a believable portrayal of what she would be like if she never moved on from the events of that night. While the movie does pretend that the other sequels and remakes never existed, it does have a lot of easter eggs that do pay homage to the original movie and some things that were clearly inspired by the other sequels, including the last shot of the movie. It does a good job either as an end to the franchise or as a set up to further movies. Given that it did well enough at the box office and got pretty good reviews it may spawn other movies down the road and was clearly left open-ended enough to do so.For those who get the 4k blu-ray, the movie looks and sounds great as you would expect. It, of course, includes the UHD blu-ray and a regular blu-ray version. The UHD has both the movie and the extras, which include about 12 minutes of deleted scenes, and then several short behind the scenes and making-of featurettes. Probably between a half hour' and 45 minutes worth of material. One thing that was not included which would have been nice, is a commentary track on the movie. I would have liked to hear the writers, director, Curtis, and Carpenter do a commentary on the movie. But what was included was very good. While I cannot say that everyone, including fans of the franchise is going to like it, but I do think it is worth checking out.

Title:
Review: Halloween del 2018 è un omaggio spettrale che riporta in vita il terrore iconico del film originale del 1978. Diretto con maestria da David Gordon Green e con Jamie Lee Curtis che riprende il suo ruolo di Laurie Strode, questa nuova iterazione della saga Halloween offre una nuova dose di suspense, tensione e puro terrore.Uno dei punti di forza del film è il modo in cui riesce a bilanciare abilmente l'omaggio al classico originale con una storia fresca e contemporanea. Il regista Green ha dimostrato grande rispetto per l'opera di Carpenter, mantenendo intatta l'atmosfera inquietante e la minacciosa presenza di Michael Myers. Allo stesso tempo, ha saputo reinventare il personaggio di Laurie Strode come una donna forte e determinata, ancora tormentata dagli eventi passati ma pronta a combattere.Jamie Lee Curtis offre un'altra performance memorabile nel ruolo di Laurie Strode. La sua interpretazione è piena di grinta e di una determinazione palpabile nel proteggere se stessa e la sua famiglia da Michael Myers. Curtis riesce a trasmettere un senso di vulnerabilità e forza allo stesso tempo, rendendo Laurie un personaggio che ci fa tifare per lei e con cui ci identifichiamo.La tensione e l'ansia si accumulano progressivamente nel corso del film, grazie a una regia attenta e a un montaggio serrato. Le sequenze di suspense sono efficaci e spesso accompagnate da colpi di scena imprevedibili, che tengono lo spettatore sul bordo del proprio sedile. Inoltre, la colonna sonora di John Carpenter, rivisitata e ampliata, contribuisce a creare un'atmosfera sinistra e a sottolineare i momenti più intensi del film.Il film si distingue anche per le sue scene di violenza e sangue, che sono presenti in modo coerente con il tono generale della storia. Questi momenti di orrore visivo sono ben realizzati e servono a sottolineare la minaccia costante di Michael Myers, il quale dimostra di essere ancora un nemico implacabile e spietato.Halloween del 2018 è una rivisitazione riuscita che riesce a catturare lo spirito del film originale, rendendo omaggio alla sua eredità e offrendo allo stesso tempo una storia nuova e coinvolgente. à un film che soddisferà sia i fan della saga di Halloween che i nuovi spettatori in cerca di una buona dose di terrore.
