Halloween 2018 review . Avoid this film SPOILERS

I'm just going by the review. It's all over the place.

There's a Omar Sharif doppelganger recreating Donald Pleasance's role? You're not kidding, stay away.

He isn't recreating the Loomis role. He was a student of Loomis and took over when he died. In fact he does a pretty un-Loomis like thing in the movie.

LMAO!!! Your critique is obviously unreasonably harsh, however reading your points, I cannot outright refute them. Your stance is valid.

I thought it was actually pretty good. The setup was great especially with Laurie's character. I wish I could've seen Micharls face but they still didn't show it. I bet it's the same face as Jogsaw.

It got boring around the middle, ESPECIALLY when Albert einstein went wacko, so by the time you got to the end, what felt like could have been a really pumped ending, ended up being just pretty good.

Still considering the source material being basically a b horror movie, it was a pretty solid attempt at elevating the franchise to something more.

6.8 out of 10

We saw more of Michael's face in the 1978 movie than we do in this one. They literally showed a clear shot of it.

Feel free to tell me which one shows more of his face?

Remember in Halloween Ressurection how Busta Rhymes got in a kung fu fight with Michael Myers?

Well this film makes that one look like The Shinning.


I purposely watch bad movies. I've seen over 85 of the bottom 100 films on IMDb. This is easily the worst film I've seen in 5 years, and easily the worst Ive ever seen in theaters. I'm ashamed of having sat through all of it.

Okay, first of all, the plot. It starts with two British podcasters who interview Myers in an insane asylum. They pull out a mask that somehow they borrowed form an attorney general and the other inmates start howling like wolves to the moon. I wish I was joking here, but I'm not.

Ok, so Harold Loomis was an integral part of Halloween as a protagonist. So they have to mention him even though Donald Pleasance is dead. Ok. Cool. So theres a new doctor.

This new Doctor is like if you hired a professional Omar Shariff impersonator to do a Loomis impression. Oh, and he starts killing for no reason in the film. I'm not kidding about this.

So after 40 minutes of meaningless scenes that could have been cut from the movie, we finally get to the plot. Want to see how Michael escaped? Too bad. It's not shown. Want to see electro music montages of teenagers at a Halloween dance? Oh goody, because there is like 20 minutes of that.

So the granddaughter of Laurie catches her boyfriend, who is dressed as Bonnie and she is dressed as Clyde (see the gender bender they did), kissing some unnamed girl and leaves the dance. Oh goody, you may say. Surely he will die. Nope. We never see him again the whole film.


Good lord, Laurie is an idiot in this film. So she has 40 years to prepare for this event yet doesnt evem lock the front door. Then she knows Michael is in the house. Unfortunately, despite her preparations, one of the rooms has a bunch of mannequins that look exactly like Michael in it. And guess where he is hiding? You guessed it.

And let's not ignore the fact Michael Myers is literally a 70 year old man in this who can bench press a small house. In fact, the only other character with supernatural strength is Jodie Fosters character Laurie who is like a 65 year old woman.

Oh and the soundtrack sucks ass and half the film is literally out of focus. How does a film with this budget suck so bad at cinematography?

And theres a serial killer on the loose yet only one cop is aware. Meanwhile, the rest of the police force is sitting literally on a dirt road talking about sandwich bread. I'm not joking about this. This is literally what happens.

1/10

Dont even check this one out on TV.
