    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    The only problem with these reviews are that you even admit they're biased. How is someone supposed to use them to make an accurate determination as to whether they should watch the film if that's the case? It's almost like you're really only reviewing the movie for yourself and not thinking...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    On another note, while you made mention of a lot of DOG's shortcomings, you kind of glanced over his positive contributions. Outside of the shaft scene, the intro is also well shot, creating an ominous tone right from the get go. The simple act of carving a pumpkin being turned into something...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    Good stuff. A couple of quick things.... I actually love DOG's commentary track since it allows us a glimpse into just how much of a loon the guy really is. I particularly enjoy his constant pedo behaviour when discussing young Danielle and how they went for ice cream during a screening of...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    Yeah, that's what I was getting at. It's cool to look at it from within the series itself but comparing it to films like Casablanca is not going to make it look that good. :lol: However within the series it could be interesting to see how you feel they progressed the story. I'd also be down...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    You can certainly add writing to the mix but its important to remember that these aren't exactly earth shattering films from a thematic standpoint. Guy in a mask kills teenagers is pretty much your basic template here, though I do admit that of the big three horror franchises, Halloween does...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    From my usual critical standpoint I gave it a 6.5/10 when I reviewed it, but from a personal enjoyment perspective (again, not how I rate the movies when I review them) I would easily give it a 7.5/10. It's definitely a lot better than people give it credit for, though it certainly has its...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    It's hard to compare the two because they are totally different albeit both slasher films, but I'd lean towards Black Christmas being the better film while Halloween IV is the quintessential slasher sequel.

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    You're not really disagreeing with me here, just re-iterating my points that its not near-flawless or worthy of the rating. :lol: I never said it wasn't a great horror film, because it is, and definitely my favourite of the Myers sequels, but when I think of near-flawless slasher films it...

    Let's not forget these gems.... and my personal favourite, after the attendant says "Jesus"... Horrid.

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    I get it, I just don't see why they should only be compared with each other when there's a myriad of other films out there to compare them to. For the record, when I rate horror movies I'm not always comparing them with The Godfather or The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, but I am trying to look at...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    I'm not going to throw a rock but seriously, 96 is like basically saying the film is near flawless, which is obviously not true. Sure its the best Halloween sequel and potentially even more entertaining than the original film, but it merits nowhere higher than a 7.5 to me (or at least that's...

    HALLOWEEN - Slashing Through History

    Halloween 2 is good, though I'm obviously going to say you overrated it since I can't fathom it being a 9/10, but that's just me. I wish they'd re-cut the film and added in a few of the television version scenes but overall its a good if not great sequel. It does its job and that's about all...
