I always enjoy seeing Michael Myers, but that's beside the point. The sequels haven't been that great (I liked 2 and 4), I know that Rob Zombie's version is a bad movie, but I still enjoy watching it, if that makes any sense. I'd rather see the Halloween films stop, unless it's something completely, and I mean COMPLETELY different.
But since we're discussing other slasher franchises in this topic, I'll add in my opinion on that. The only movie in the entire Friday The 13th series I like is part 6. A Nightmare On Elm Street is one of my favorite movies, I also enjoyed New Nightmare quite a bit. Don't really care for Hellraise or Candyman. The only series I like every installment of is Child's Play (Part 3 just for the garbage truck scene). Just seems like Chucky grows a bit more each installment so it seems like each sequel has something new to say and the focus has shifted from the protagonist to the antagonist as the series went on. That's all I have to say about that. |

I forgot Candyman. I liked the first two. The third one was a bit far fetched and seemed to get away from the story.

I just love sequels!! I used to hate every slasher not called Michael Myers when I was younger since everybody always used Jason or Freddy when referring to a killer or something. I love the Nightmare sequels probly most. All of them. Loved the Friday Sequels ecxept for VII which is despise and X which I despise even more(except for the virtual camping scene) Hellraiser is badass I agree alot of people hated the third one but I think it just as good. Pumpkinhead 2 was always my favorite of the two. The poor little boy and the bloody tentacles or whatever when that guy got his head ripped off...sorry

But anyway. I'm here with Rod. I'm not a huge fan of horror sequels... The only horror sequels that I actually enjoyed were "28 Weeks Later" and "Aliens," and they certainly diverge from the kind of serial memisis that these Boogeymen Big Bad flicks seem to fall into. I think that to make a successful sequel, you have to BUILD from the original (Aliens, for example, built from the first by adding the Queen and the alien nesting ground... 28 Weeks Later takes place in quarantined London), but most of the above simply just take the Boogeyman and give them new stomping grounds and victims. I love Halloween. It's my favorite scary movie. But I haven't seen a successful sequel to it. I chose, if I had to "To Choose a New Sequel Path." I might consider remaking the second film (I thought it was a BIG mistake to make it more gory and less suspenseful... and I'm not sure if we REALLY needed the Strode backstory). I honestly like the concept of the victim waking up and being in danger immediately. Too often do we see victims swept away and then we never follow their fate... I like that concept, but I would make it better. I love Mike Myers. I could do with another good film. So I would remake #2 (a decision I have made and stuck with over YEARS now). But Rod's right. I'd LOVE to see new Boogeyman. Honestly, I thought that Jeepers Creepers was incredibly underrated and successful. Scream was well-constructed for what it was (a DEconstructionist film that functioned as a decent slasher). I wasn't as big a fan of BEHIND THE MASK and HATCHET as Rod was, though... I feel as though they could have been so, SO much better (Mask was so incredibly smart - VERY smart... but it ultimately failed as a horror film and Hatchet was good gore, but not much else). BUT I recognize them for trying to create new stories and mythos. I would like to see more. HOLLYWOOD - STOP CHURNING OUT BAD ASIAN HORROR REMAKES. |

Halloween 6
Am I the only one who thinks this film is creepy and atmospheric? I haven't seen this one since its original release. I remember walking away from this film thinking how well done it was; then, I heard only negative things about it from critics and fans alike. I think I'll rent it tonight and rewatch it with my horror snob, critic's hat on. I would really like as many opinions on this film as possible; don't hold back. If you hate it ,give me your best vitriolic rants. Actually, I enjoy negative reviews more than positive. Some vituperations against againt a hated film drip with sarcasm and passion. I often find the passion and style in negative reviews very amusing. Lord knows, I may check back in here with a negative review of my own. PAX VOBISCUM!
