Halloween — The Evil of Michael Myers (2018x37)

: 05, 2018

After 40 years of disappointing sequels, remakes and the countless slasher movies of the 80’s, Michael Myers officially makes a comeback this year with Halloween 2018. While the older sequels and remakes went in an entirely different direction than the original, replacing simple, yet effective techniques for explanations that weren’t needed. What Rob Zombie and all these other filmmakers failed to understand is what made the original so good, in the first place. Today, we’ll explore John Carpenter’s Halloween and the elements that make it arguably the most effective horror movie of all time; as well as diving into the mind of the Boogeyman himself.
