for those that thought this was garbage (I'm included)


How do you feel about them confirming 2 more films? ..it's pretty laughable, really. I'm guessing they'll both be more of the same unfortunately. This didn't capture the magic at all as well as them showing every good scene in the trailer. 'oh it made tons of money?? We'll make two more!'

reply

I didn't find it to be garbage. But if I did, I guess I'd just not watch the sequels.

I’m not included in this kewl group so I say... bring them on, baby!

The naysayers will still hate watch the movies and whine about them nonstop (that is typical nowadays). Now that’s laughable! XD

They can confirm 200 more films if they like but I'm out. Halloween 2018 was terrible, on the bright side it gave me a lot more appreciation for Resurrection.

reply

It was truly awful.

reply

I agree on both sides. This was garbage and as bad as Resurrection was who’d ever thought it was way more enjoyable than first thought. More than this piece of shit.

AWFULLY HIGH STANDARDS FOR A SEQUEL TO A HORROR FILM...AS A CHILD OF THE 80S I AM STEELED AGAINST INFERIOR SEQUELS AND AM ABLE TO ENJOY THE CONTINUATION OF THE STORY,EVEN WITH DWINDLING QUALITY LEVELS.

I don't get the hate personally. I thought it was the best sequel. Just think if we had to live forever with Busta Rhymes ending the franchise in Resurrection.

reply

Teeeerrible idea, unless they take it more seriously.

reply

Shame on us they will perceive it to be twice as good. It won't be.

reply

I tried watching the film twice just in case but I see no hype. This movie had tension in like two parts, the bathroom and when Laurie is skulking around the trap house looking for Michael... at least until she got to the "He's obviously gonna be behind the creepy dolls," room lol..

reply

As far as the sequels go this was one of the better ones, and I exclude Season of the Witch in that. How anyone can rate this below Halloween Resurrection I'll never know. Not the most original of films but kind of does its job in trying to stick with the tone of the first movie.

reply

I didn't think it was garbage. It's not my favorite in the series, but it's not bad. Here's my order of favorite to least favorite.

Just out of curiosity which movie did you see first?

reply

The first one

BLASPHEMY.

I didn't think it was garbage, it was competently made and put a lot of effort into trying to capture the "feel" of the original movie, but it was just another soulless rehash.
