What I love about the film is that up to the final scene, it's kept ambiguous as to whether Michael Myers is just a homicidal lunatic, or if as Loomis suspects there's something genuinely unnatural and "evil" about him.

For the final scene when Loomis looks over the balcony and finds Michael's body missing, Donald Pleasance had asked Carpenter if he should react with shock or if he should react with the expression of "I always knew this would happen." Carpenter said "do whatever feels natural." So Pleasance went with the grim expression that indicated "he knew this would happen" and that his suspicions about Michael's true nature were correct. Capping it off with a quick succession of location shots where Michael had killed people overlayed with Michael's heavy breathing and Carpenter's score made it perfect.

Of course that was all tossed out in Halloween II when we see the previously calm but grim Loomis running about screaming how he couldn't believe Michael was alive, completely undercutting this awesome ending.

In a better world, Halloween 2 would be ignored entirely. Instead, it has 3 direct sequels. Halloween III did nothing wrong.
 
You know what, I posted this last year and now I think I should post it again: the terrific Soviet horror film Viy.


One of a kind in its homeland, and produced by a director renowned for his terrific fantasy films. And thankfully, the company has officially uploaded it to YouTube.

Unfortunately there aren't any subtitles, so you may to have to learn Russian to watch this.
 
Junk (2000)
Japanese zombie flick in the vein of cheap euroshit zombies.
Nothing life-changing but certainly a cromulent take on the concept.
 
Speaking of zombies...


Have any of you seen this? A friend showed it to me and I thought it was terrific. You never see voodoo zombies in movies anymore, and that, coupled with the blaxploitation angle and a Baron Samedi who was enjoying the fuck out of himself, made my day.

Plus the theme is terrific-

Halloween 2 at least has that chick with the really nice breasts and the cool shot of Michael with blood coming out of the eye holes of the mask, but yeah, the ending of the original Halloween was perfect and all we really needed.
 

Two minutes, 45 seconds. Elvira Mistress Of The Dark singing a catchy lil' tune about vegetables.

I think.
 
As you all might have guessed by my avatar, I'm a fan of Star Trek: TNG, and that had quite of few spooky episodes - primarily in the early seasons.
My personal favorite was Season 2's "Where Silence Has Lease," a nice creepy, atmospheric cosmic/eldritch horror type episode featuring the first and only appearance of the mysterious entity known only as "Nagilum."

Halloween and Texas Chain Saw Massacre are both really great movies with bad franchises

Halloween 2 was okay and I'll admit, I enjoyed the Thorn Trilogy despite its many flaws and even Part III since it tried something different, but everything after that was pointless. Especially Resurrection and the remakes.

Abby
sorta okay Blaxploitation Exorcist ripoff
features that guy who played Blacula so it's got that going for it at least
 
I think I will just play Luigi’s Mansion to get into Halloween. If only CreepyPastas were still relevant, I like listening to horror more than watching. Just something about those types of ghost stories is more interesting than the standard jump-scare material to me.
 

Eng Sub Double Feature 08 : ultragoji2 : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Before I had uploaded the first two RING movies for the Double Feature. Now I decided to upload the two recent RING movies that are titled SADAKO... the main...
archive.org
Sadako
3d sequel to Ring, decent enough Horror Movie Sequel like most Ring sequels
you can totally tell how it was supposed to be 3d

Wild Zero
vehicle for Japanese rock band Guitar Wolf
zombies happen, Japanese The Ramones (and a fan of theirs and an arms dealer and some scumbag asshole club owner and some other people) deal with it
a little slow at points but the rest is fun enough that it's easy to overlook for the sake of ROCK AND ROOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!

Bio Zombie
two guys work at a bootleg vcd store at the mall when they're not running errands for local organized crime, zombies happen
sorta Kevin Romero's Clerks of the Dead
 
I'm going to watch all The Simpsons THOH this year from newest to oldest. Growing up a UPN station affiliate ran THOH marathons this way. I haven't done that in years and I haven't seen a few of the new THOH. I guess I'll find out how shitty they are.
 
Werewolves on Wheels
Biker Gang Vs Occult
legends say most of the biker gang is played by a real biker gang and they pad the movie out a bit by having them just fuck around doing dumb biker gang stuff
 
Caught part of Day of the Dead today getting ready for work, has a lot of good bits but probably my least favorite of the trilogy.
here's a nice youtube copy of Dawn

El Vampiro y El Sexo (subtítulos en inglés) : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Pelicula completa con Santo.

El Vampiro y El Sexo
Softcore porn they shot around El Santo, has a lot of the batshit crazy you expect from a lucha movie and a lot of female nudity

Las Momias de Guanajuato
the big three of lucha movies: El Santo, Blue Demon, and Mil Mascaras. They take on momias.

Just finished "The Devil and Daniel Mouse", a 1/2 hour cartoon by Nelvana made in 1978:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=WHZTC1ljA84
Extremely dated, but holy shit, the animation on that Devil! And I would have sworn he was voiced by Tony Jay if I hadn't read the end credits.

I have this one on VHS, alongside the first few Nelvana specials. This was the best of them. They kind of developed the theme further in Rock and Rule.
 
Dracula, Sovereign of the Damned!
the Robotech crew dubs a made-for-tv anime movie that's based on the Marvel's Dracula comics
a fairly decent attempt at mashing a fuckton of capeshit Dracula into a cartoon with a nice enough dub

Nosferatu
the mothafuckin OG of vampire movies and still one of the best
from what I understand this is a fan work that's based in the Type O Negative version and uses better source material for the audio and video

Don't forget the Toei Frankenstein, done by the same dubbing crew...


The ending of this one is not to be missed.

Neither really settled into being a franchise -- they're both a series of reboots, retcons, and/or direct sequels to the original. If a horror movie is going to get a bunch of sequels it's probably actually better if the original isn't so great, so they freely serialize a dumb story instead of being stuck on whatever happened in the first one.

Wise decision if true, I watched this recently and the authentic feeling is the best thing about it.
