Rate The Last Movie You Saw

Black Pumpkin (2018) This was pretty fun. I liked the main characters and it was entertaining.

If I could (or were forced to) remake this, I would make Freddy's alleged child molester reputation count. In other words, I'd like to see Freddy who targets tweens instead of late teens (who, at least physically, are more like young adults).

The 2010 remake offered nothing new to the original and should never have been made.

Halloween III : Season of the Witch - (1982)

One of my favourite horror films. When Halloween III came out I didn't necessarily think it was going to feature Michael Myers, but I thought it was going to be connected to the universe he exists in. I thought it might be a kind of spin-off, and we'd touch on why he was the way he was while going off in a new direction. Back then, when first watching this, I slowly started to get the feeling it had nothing to do with the first two films, and then I saw the TV commercial for Halloween which confirmed that this was set in a universe that had nothing to do with the first two films. I felt cheated, because I thought sequels were like chapters in books, where a story continues. Funnily enough, my feelings of anger over that overshadowed the fact that I'd kind of enjoyed the movie itself. It took years and repeated viewings (of which I always came away liking the film even more) before I came to regard this stand-alone sequel as the best Halloween film barring the original. I'm a huge fan. Dan O'Herlihy's wickedly evil performance is brilliant, and if you watch him closely you'll see all kinds of little nuances in it. The story, combining ancient folk horror and modern technology, is creepy and was very original in it's day. The whole "bugs and snakes" weird and ghastly horror (they just erupt from people's heads when they wear these specific Halloween masks) is inspired, sickly and truly frightening. Every moment of horror in this works so well. I don't watch this every Halloween, but I sometimes do. I really enjoyed it yet again last night.

8/10
