 Hey guys, I'm Ryan and this is Nick and we just saw Halloween. Yeah the 2018 reboot Would you call it? Well, I'd say it is the Halloween we deserve in 2018 it's the Batman begins of Halloween films This is the horror sequel you have to see this year But stay tuned you're about to find out what we thought of Halloween and why we are excited for this trick and treat So before we get into things make sure you hit that subscribe button and hit the notification bell And if you fill up to it get the like button, too. Let's get into it Halloween. What's it all about? Well, Halloween is a re-re-reboot of the franchise. So look Jason Blum, John Carpenter, Green, they've got together and they've given us a whole new chapter. Laurie Strode It's been 40 years since the original Halloween. It's actually the 40th anniversary this year and Strode is dealing with the trauma of the past. So Myers has been dormant for years It's been insane asylum, but he's about to get triggered and we're about to go on a murder spree unlike any other Ryan, how did you feel every second? You did plot depth like the best way possible? I'm excited even though I've seen it I'm excited about that. Look, I didn't know what to think about this movie going in You've got people like Danny McBride producing it. David Gordon Green is known for comedies If I feel like and then we've got this Halloween horror film you've got Jason Blum behind it producing which is always a good sign because I mean out of all the 30 films or so he's produced. I reckon it's a good 20 or so have actually been pretty good So there's got good things got good bad things going into it, but The second the movie starts from the get-go you are in just straight from the John Carpenter theme Launching you into the movie. Yeah, what's chilling in the beginning is you see the pumpkin rebuilding itself It's almost like the franchise saying we're back. We're rebuilding what we've done and every moment oozes tension Shout out to John Carpenter and his son Cody Carpenter for this awesome soundtrack Because one of the things that stands out for this movie along with a great performance by Jamie Curtis and Greer and others is the Incredible music every moment Your ears pick up just as your eyes do and that story becomes intertwined and just when you jump that music kicks in You know something's about to go. Yeah. Yeah, they used it so well I think too there were moments where you thought Something was gonna happen and it didn't happen They switched it at times and used it on different characters But I thought it was quite interesting and what you were saying before with the way they were showing the pumpkin Rebooting itself They had a lot of moments like that in the movie where they said almost a fuck you to the sequels that came after it They made comments about Laurie being Michael Myers's sister The sequels that came after it the new The doctor whatever his original name was Loomis that's right new Loomis and yeah stuff like that Which I thought was kind of fun and an interesting way to reboot a film Yeah, and what's interesting is even though it is definitely return of the original slag to genre to its prominence It still has humor and still has drama. It walks that fine line in there And the thing about is it's a story of trauma. It's a story of the final girls It's a celebration of horror and some return to quality for a franchise that has needed this for so long Yeah, it's a slasher genre. I think has needed resurgence for quite a while I remember that Nymer and Elm Street the remake tried to do it And then the Friday the 13th remake and try to do it and they all kind of failed This does it very successfully. I feel like if at first you don't succeed try Try again. Yeah. God damn. Is it a happy Halloween because I've got to say From even when it does end you want more of it hundred cent. Yeah, it's Blum has signaled this isn't the last we'll see of Halloween Hopefully and I truly hope it isn't because I feel that we have just began to scratch the surface The surface of the potential to Halloween franchise again something that I feel like reboots do Quite well is the first film when they reboot it But then it's the sequel that kind of throws it back into that realm of shitty sequels again So look, I'm hoping that this next film if it does happen We've gotten hints from Jason Blum if it does happen I really hope that they stick to this formula They've built with this film and don't just throw Michael Myers into another you know college I got a stabby stabby some babysitters again. We've built a storyline a backstory for these characters. Let's continue that in an era of huge budgets massive blockbusters Halloween's the film you've got Gantus in the most take some of us and seeing the original in fact if you haven't seen the original all the better because To be introduced this way might very well make you a fan of the franchise hundred percent But look if you have you have the chance I recommend watching the first one before you see this film There is a lot of callbacks and you will get a nice little nudge in the neck when things happen in the movie And you will get it one of those people in the audience don't mention the next and the stuff done tonight was just this The one of my favorite things about this movie is that it is Absolutely gut wrenchingly brutal. Oh, there are so many great deaths that this is gonna line up People are gonna make this the line where people need to cross and do better after this film comes out So look if you want B our oodle horror if you want some fun If you want an entertaining film that walks the line between multiple genres catch Halloween under 25th of October I'm Ryan.
