7/10 [A SLASHER FILM, LIVING UP TO THE ORIGINAL]
Halloween was one of the few Slasher films I liked, I first liked the Idea of it discarding all 8 movies (Not including "Season of the Witch")
The film wasnt scary overall but it was just a frightning seeing someone like Michael Myers being this bloody and killer again was nice. Guy stepped on someone's head and turned it to paste, damn.
It takes us to the world of how Michael can be a true monster with no moral or remorse, he'll kill anything for damn sure...
It was an enjoyable slasher film but i'd take it more as a suspense movie from a horror one, the story was also kinda strange at a point where Micheal easily gives up around the end as he burns (Sorry for spoiler), and then he dissapears... also the parts where Michael's strenght is unconditional, he has the power to squash a head bare foot but cant squash someone head on a door with 2 hands!? This version of Michael was something else he was silent, he was deadly, and he was strong.
The connection between Lauri and Michael to just kill each other is amazing, especially how her family gets to be part of it and properly play their roles is good... well except the father, he died...
I also liked how it made points and connections to the first movie and made an easter egg at that 3rd movie! (Season of the Witch)
I love it!
Even tho this isnt the purest form of a Halloween movie, it was good.
