At least it's short!

This is actually one of my favorite Halloween movies.

I prefer it a lot more than Halloween 4 and Halloween 5. Halloween 3 is an abomination and I don't even count it.

I tie this one with Halloween 2.

I did a rewatch of the entire franchise (except for Rob Zombie's Halloween II from 2009) about a year and a half ago.



1, 2 & 4 are one's I'm happy to rewatch multiple times a year. Great movies.

3 is good. It's own thing but it's a fun Carpenter-esque sci-fi horror movie. Tonnes of Halloween atmosphere. I check it out once a year during October.

5 was okay. I'll probably watch it once every 4-5 years.

6 is a bit of a mess. Not one I'll be rewatching any time soon.

7 is pretty good, a bit safe and vanilla but a solid movie. One I'll watch every 2-3 years.

8 is silly. I won't revisit it for a long time.

Rob Zombie's remake is okay. No match for the original three Myers movies but I like it more than 5, 6 & 8. One I'll watch every 3 or so years.

I probably should given RZ's Halloween II another shot. I saw it when it came out and didn't like it at all. I've never rewatched it.

DGG's 2018 movie is pretty good. One I'll rewatch every 2-3 years.

Halloween Kills is a bit of a mess. It's one I might check out every 5 years.

Halloween Ends is an abomination! If I ever decide to rewatch it I'll instantly regret it I'm sure.

It's kinda interesting, I'm halfway through a marathon Elm Street/F13th/Halloween/Hellraiser run. So far, all of them have been about 90 minutes, but all of them have literally had 2-3 minutes of credits, rather than 10 minutes which is the usual.

Except Wes Cravens New Nightmare - which actually looks like it's filmed with much more modern ('current') camera angles/techniques/lighting....and has credits which run for 10 minutes.

I watched this for the first time tonight. It was awful. I don't understand how any Halloween fan can like it but to each their own.

No, it being short is what partially kills it. A lot of what was cut should have remained to give the move the development it needed because the results make it feel rushed. This is an issue I had with most of the movies because they were literally 80+ minutes and their deleted scenes really would have helped shape the stories more. Loomis had much more meaning here in the original version and in the T-Cut, he's reduced to basically a cameo with the only significance is his scene with Debra Strode. Cut him out entirely and the story really doesn't change. That's not good to envision and you don't feel that way when watching the original version where there's much more to his story-arc here. I'm surprised he was still given the "Donald Pleasance In" at the start credits given how reduced his role is here. It basically should have been "Paul Rudd In" with Donald listed last in the opening credits after Mitch Ryan. -_-
