Halloween 2 (1981) MOVIE REACTION! FIRST TIME WATCHING!!

[@JeremyPhillips1981]

Carpenter admitted years later that the reason he added the brother-sister element was that it was very late at night, he'd had a six-pack of beers and couldn't think of anything else.

[@jdogjohnson9038]

And it worked in my opinion because I like the storyline never had a problem with it 2018 took that away and I hated it

[@donnybuoy]

@@jdogjohnson9038 The sibling subplot was a lazy attempt to explain Michael’s nature. It lead to a convoluted mythos surrounding the character that took away from what made him so fascinating in the original film. Halloween (2018) did the series a favor by retconning that terrible addition. Halloween is my favorite franchise and I love each of them for what they are, but I’m eternally grateful for the new timeline. The original films are always there to watch but there was simply nowhere else to take that story.

[@jdogjohnson9038]

@@donnybuoy they kind of stopped being good after 4 imo and the rest are so so I can watch them but they are messes from 5 on

[@spitz5183]

@@donnybuoy I personally liked the whole narrative of them being related and Michael coming after his sister relentlessly without reason. In fact, I find that it’s much more scarier and terrifying that someone with superhuman abilities in your bloodline, whether it be a sibling or an uncle, is hellbent on coming after you, no matter what. I also find that the whole sibling aspect is one of the elements that make the Halloween franchise stand out from the others. I can completely understand why they retconned it, though. And personally, I don’t have a problem with it, even though I do prefer the sibling narrative. I hated the Thorn plot, though.

[@TheInsaniacGuy]

@@donnybuoy Being that this was their first watch, I can understand where they're coming from. However, if you remove the critic optics for a sec, it's really just supposed to be a kinda silly, albeit fun, slasher flick sequel - which it does succeed in. It's not too pretentious for its own good, it has a tense 3rd act, has a killer score, an ominous setting, & you can even argue Donald Pleasence is at his best in this one. It ain't better than the original, but it does work as a worthy, fun successor (maybe minus the brother/sister revelation 😅).

Halloween II was supposed to be the end the of the Michael Myers story. They tried something completely different with Halloween III which failed miserably. So in the 4th one the brought Michael Meyers back. I always like watching Halloween 1 and 2 as one movie back to back btw.

I don't hate it by any means (Shaun's 5.8 sounds about right for me) but it's just an inferior copy of the first film set in a hospital. Everything the film does the first one did better and by virtue of trying to seem like a continuation, I feel it only makes the flaws more glaring. You guys should definitely do Halloween III at some point and treat it more as its own film rather than a Halloween sequel. An underrated film that I'm glad a lot of people are finally coming around to.

"Or he has a bullet proof vest on, or you missed". Guess you missed the scene where Loomis goes down to where Michael fell and there was a puddle of blood. I love this movie. Couldn't sit through this reaction for very long.

Love this and the first one, I really like how it directly follows on. I even like the third one but not really a fan of the others. Although H2O is kind of fun. Lol I SHOT HIM 6 TIMES!

[@easagepie]

Lol 😂 SIX TIMES!

[@Mangolite]

Halloween 1, 2, and H2O are what I considered the true Halloween trilogy for the Laurie and Michael Myers brother and sister dynamic arc.

[@cottagepie1]

@@Mangolite Agreed, I like Halloween 3, for the dark story it is, even though It's not Michael Myers

[@TheDrunkenCelt]

"I hate empty hospital corridors" Exorcist 3 when?!

[@Dystopia1111]

Haha, I know exactly the scene. Just so unexpected, snip! 💀

[@wutupbro1713]

if you want something different watch the remake of the original

[@taoist32]

You mean the Rob Zombie remake?

[@76rvega]

This was my first horror movie... I was 6 when my dad let me watch it and it terrified me!!!!!! So even though everything you commented on is on point this will always be my introduction to horror my first... You never forget your first!

[@Kap00rwith2os]

The 2018 sequel is better but this one's pretty good as well 👍 👍

[@CMinorOp67]

Very sweet of the hospital staff to give Laurie a new hairstyle. Most horrifying scene in this movie is the child with a razor blade in his mouth. I did like how Laurie was like “ef it, I give up” when Michael walks through that fire at the end. I liked the original more than you guys, and this is a guilty pleasure.

[@uniquelyme3581]

I know this is controversial but l like Halloween 2 more than Halloween 1..... l know one is a classic and all but 2 is definitely my favorite 😌

If there's one good thing about this pandemic (if indeed there is), it's the number of amazingly entertaining and talented reactors that have popped up over the past year. Guys like you are gonna become huge

[@SarahGraceNeal]

Your reactions are so binge-worthy!! Keep it up, guys x

[@buhhnessa2680]

Love this channel & love watching you two discover new flicks! Thank you, for the fun content guys!

[@johnrobinson474]

Shaun got it right, just a series of different killings with no continuing story. Also, in the early 1980s was a trend where there was a big twist to the original story (Michael & Laurie are siblings). 1980's The Empire Strikes Back and 1983's Psycho II also had big reveals in them. 2018 Halloween was better than the 1981 sequel, but the 1978 original was the best of all.

Man, if you think that's the coldest nurse ever you haven't seen One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest...

[@lindalemieux4623]

One of the main complaints about Halloween 2 was too much of an assumption that the audience would have seen the 1st Halloween movie and wouldn't need to be dragged into the storyline. They didn't try hard enough to grab the audience's attention in the 2nd movie. I like to watch them back to back. I think it helps compensate for that flaw and keeps the anxiety going.

[@DCFCfanatic]

In the original ending, which I believe was shown as part of a televised version, it revealed that Jimmy (last seen in the car on the horn) is alive and well. He's also in the back of the same ambulance that Laurie is put in. There's also a televised version of the original that includes more info on Michael Myers and addition scenes.

[@McPh1741]

A bit of trivia, the woman talking on the other end of the phone to Alice is Nancy Loomis. She played Annie, the Sheriff’s daughter.

[@shainewhite2781]

3:15, "he's right there!" Lol!

[@damonroger3184]

Also fun fact, the director of this movie, Rick Rosenthal, actually had directed the film to follow the same type of suspenseful, low-gore approach that Carpenter took with the first one, but it was actually Carpenter who went in and did reshoots of certain scenes, like the death scenes to add gore, because he wanted it to be more alike the other slashers coming out at the time.

[@ConSepTg]

I’ve always noticed that Michael walks backwards off of the balcony rail. Doesn’t make sense. It happens in 1 too

[@goldend-pad5257]

They messed up in continuity also in that they filmed him falling off a totally different balcony at the front of the house in this sequal and yet in the first film its clearly a different type of balcony situated at the back of the house.

[@kuhpunkt]

Halloween 2018 is just a much better sequel.

[@Shahtree]

Yes guys! Keep the other horror sequel reviews coming :) Really interesting and cool points addressed. Definitely check out III as it is just totally a different story and what I thought would have been a much better approach with the franchise as an anthology. Regarding the 2018 Halloween film, in my eyes I thought it was the best of the sequels as they actually tried something different and more interesting with the Michael Myers storyline, something to note though is that it follows as a direct sequel to the original and forgets about all the prior entries.

[@kirkrothes8040]

Mr Sandman song is just so out of place and so freaky because of it. Loved the first one, this one more slashy. Great reaction video boys :)
