6/1/2023 0 Comments Halloween 3d 2017 filmI far prefer the mood of this first movie, though, which has a more simple story & decent atmosphere & doesn’t get too over the top or silly. But it’s all part of the fun in campy slashers, which is what these sort of become. And I know Donald Pleasence was a proper actor & all that but he hams it up more and more in each of these movies. But who wants good acting in a slasher movie anyway? Jamie Lee Curtis is still one of the best “final girls” and makes up for the other two girls who are only there to be horny & murdered anyway. But, wow – the sequels are pretty dodgy after such a strong start with this one.Īs in my notes, “ Cop daughter dodgy acting“, I don’t think I have to look this up to see if anyone won an Oscar. As with most slasher franchises, obviously. I’ll just say that this one is SO much better than the rest. What can I say about Halloween? I’m not going to do some full review of any of these. Oh, it looks like I took a few notes while watching this: Cop daughter dodgy acting, Great score, Michael drives so well! Soles, Nancy Loomis (her name is Loomis?! – Oh, interesting… she changed it. Starring: Donald Pleasence, Jamie Lee Curtis, P.J. By the 4th but especially the 5th & 6th one I was getting bored & just typing out random thoughts while they were on so, screw it, I’ll just post all those ramblings. So here are some brief thoughts on each of the “Loomis Timeline” movies. Almost as much as I hated the Elm Street remake! Dreadful). There are actually only three others I’ve not seen now: Resurrection, Halloween Kills (I’ll watch it when it’s on services), and Rob Zombie’s Halloween II (which I will never watch as I hated his Halloween film with an absolute fucking passion. Okay, so what I’ve watched is “ The Loomis Timeline” (and Halloween III). I have no energy to watch every Halloween movie, though. I believe it was only 5 & 6 which I’d not seen at all. And I’ve watched the first movie plenty – it’s in a completely different league from the sequels. I saw more of Halloween than I’d realised, though, I just didn’t remember much other than the first movie. Maybe I’ll try to watch all of Friday The 13th someday but I’m in no rush, especially since refreshing my memory & finding out just how bad the Halloween sequels actually are. However, I actually enjoyed those films, cheesy as they are, more than what I’ve seen of the Friday The 13th movies. As for Child’s Play, I never saw beyond the first three but I have no interest as they look really bad. And, of course, Freddy Vs Jason where I was Team Freddy. Well, okay – one was that Jason in space one. Can’t even say for sure but I’ve seen the first two then maybe a few others but couldn’t tell you which ones. And, after now finally watching all of the first “ Halloween timeline” movies, it has confirmed what I already knew: I’m still definitely an Elm Street girl.Īs for other slasher franchises from the same sort of era, I’ve seen even fewer of the Friday The 13th movies. Well, I would’ve been old enough to rent the 6th Halloween movie… But I was an Elm Street girl by then, so that’s what I spent my time watching in its entirety instead. And my mom was certainly not going to be renting violent slasher flicks for me. To be fair, we didn’t have it as easy as you whipper snappers! I had to sneak around & try to watch what I could late at night on TV. Happy Halloween! My final post today contains my thoughts on Halloween 1-6, which I rewatched throughout October.Įven though I’m an ’80s kid & always enjoyed watching horror on TV every October, I just never quite managed to see all of the Halloween movies.
