Watching the extended cut of HALLOWEEN KILLS recently, it struck me how every scene in my official HALLOWEEN KILLS coloring book—which I have fully finished with now, by the way, having burned through some substantial colored pencils to colorize the pages—is taken directly from a screenshot from the film. Like, down to even the small… Continue reading HALLOWEEN KILLS In (Un)living Color, and the Importance of Gay Representation

One of the special features included in the extended cut of HALLOWEEN KILLS, now available on Blu-ray and DVD, is a kill count. Before I watched it, though, I was keeping my own count, trying to see if I could keep up with the total number of people dispatched by Michael Myers in the film.… Continue reading HALLOWEEN KILLS Count

In a way it feels like I’m cheating, providing two reviews for the same movie, but there are significant differences between the theatrical release of HALLOWEEN KILLS and the extended cut. Both versions are available on the DVD I just purchased yesterday and watched today while trapped inside by a snowstorm. (Both *trapped* and *snowstorm*… Continue reading Movie Review: HALLOWEEN KILLS Extended Cut

The divisive (for some, not for the true fans) but undeservedly so HALLOWEEN KILLS has just released on BluRay. I wants it. I look forward to seeing what some of you livestreamers have already seen, which is a bookoodle of special features and behind-the-scenes content. You can see a little of it right here. Or… Continue reading HALLOWEEN KILLS Makes for a Blue January

Thinking about the latest film in the franchise, HALLOWEEN KILLS, is the word “kills” supposed to be a noun or a verb? It makes more sense as a noun. These are the series of murders that takes place on Halloween. But it could also work as a verb, which is how I took it when… Continue reading HALLOWEEN COLORS

A special “extended cut” of the film will be released digitally on December 13th, and one can assume when the DVD and Blu-Ray release rolls out the second week of January 2022 it will include this extra material. (It’d better, or Ima do a lotta bitchin’, and I’ll write bad things about ‘em here on… Continue reading HALLOWEEN KILLS Extended and Colored

We can reasonably expect next year’s HALLOWEEN ENDS to put the definitive period to the current storyline of Michael vs. Laurie, which, as we found out in HALLOWEEN KILLS, isn’t really Michael vs. Laurie at all, but Michael vs. whoever is unfortunate enough to be in front of him and capture his fancy. But we… Continue reading What’s Next for HALLOWEEN?

When I was a kid I stayed up many a night (even on school nights, as I had a cool mom, and would have stayed awake anyway, having a TV set in my bedroom) watching the original HALLOWEEN and its sequel HALLOWEEN II, on one of the local independent television stations in our broadcasting area.… Continue reading HALLOWEEN Chopped Up and Rearranged

John Carpenter has been ambivalent about it, and he has been violently resentful. One could say the same thing about the man and HALLOWEEN II in general. He never really wanted to do the movie. Then once he’d agreed to do it, his ambivalence became evident when he chose not to direct it himself. Still,… Continue reading HALLOWEEN: The Sister Angle

Yep, the guy I came to know and love from NOBODY. (I hear he’s also in some TV series called BETTER CALL SAUL but I’ve not seen it.) They needed a photo of the character Bob, the nerdy horndog dude killed by Michael Myers immediately after having, um, relations with PJ Soles’ Linda in the… Continue reading Bob Odenkirk is in HALLOWEEN KILLS (Plus Michael’s Sense of Humor)
