[@whodatking26]

The Loomis character is so important because the characters around him are pretty grounded, there for it makes him seem crazy, but when Michael Myers comes out Loomis isnt the crazy one anymore. It gives so much depth when he speaks those lines of dialogue about blackness and evil. When everyone is saying it the meaning kinda dies.

[@thefilmeffect6089]

One of the problems I have with this movie and the 2018 film is the lack of stalking. In the original film, he chooses his victims carefully and then waits till the time is right to kill them. He slowly picks them off one by one and doesn't just kill them at the first opportunity. There is a method to his madness. That's a part of his character that was missing in these new films.

[@EnchantedTooWell]

Exactly he was more of a Jason type killer in these movies, he was creepy or stalker-ish enough

[@mynameisNeo369]

The actor who played Michael did fantastic when staring down the mob. Whipping his head like an animal, observing them and defiantly putting his Face back on. Truly getting across the point that even though Michael has a human face, that and his body are just the vessel for him being truly a fiend without a face.

[@patrickthomas8890]

One nitpick: no hospital would ever keep the morgue on a floor accessible to the public, and definitely would not have open blinds with dead bodies on display. That was silly.

[@dylandavidson7831]

Few things. 1. I think the whole thing with the 2nd mental patient not looking like Michael at all is supposed to show how blind the mob was even to the obvious. I totally agree with you and that’s the only way I could justify the decision. 2. I like that they are keeping Michael in tact as a character, that he is just a mindless shark moving from kill to kill. Makes me wonder if Michael would have just remained in his house for the rest of his life and not killed anyone. 3. Michael carved up the cops head outside Lori’s house in the last movie so Michael did display victims in that movie. 4. Tommy Doyle literally lookin like Elmer Fudd walking through Haddonfield. “Oooooo I’m gonna get dat kiwwer!”

Well if you look back in the 78 film Michael is already in his house and that's when Laurie strode came up and then he followed her . I think the premise is that he kills always on Halloween night in tribute or in a remeberence to what he did that night too Judith myers.

Hopefully by now you’ve seen more of Cody’s work. His franchise reviews and rankings are pure gold. He states his real opinions regardless of the backlash some people give him. His Nightmare on elm streets reviews are some of my favorites

[@benwhittingtonmusic]

I just saw it tonight and despite a few stupid characters traits, I actually really enjoyed it for what it was... A 'filler' between the beginning and the end. It was actually nice to see the reactions of the towns people to the murder spree of the previous film, instead of usually ignoring them. Like seeing Oscars Mum react in the hospital. I know that it was extremely scarce on a plot, but I understood that going in and treated it like a continuation of the 2018 night... Which is exactly what it was meant to be! I also did enjoy that they side-lined the main three for this film too. It made it different, otherwise it would've just been a repeat of the 2018 film. It wasn't amazing by any means, but I'm definitely looking forward to the finale. Ps... the 1978 scene was unreal and by far the best part of the film!

[@benwhittingtonmusic]

Ok yeah.. I would've MUCH preferred that original ending coming back to Laurie! Gotta say, even though I did enjoy this film, I do agree with everything you've said.

[@castortroy1853]

Part of me is hoping that Halloween Ends reveals that everything after the mob beating was all in Michael's head. As he's being beaten to near death, his synapses are firing, and he's just having what amounts to, essentially, a dying dream, and he manufactures this scenario where he magically stands up, kills everyone, then teleports back to his sister's room and kills Karen.

[@85retnuh]

I like this a lot because I like the more he's just a man approach but then Karen would still be alive and I kind of like her dead. Hmmmm

[@hcaz5818]

That would be terrible...

[@tydune2631]

That doesn’t make any sense. How would there a 3rd movie if Michael really is dead?

[@85retnuh]

Yeah I like the fact that she is dead as well. Michael wouldn't be dead but in a coma maybe. I do know there is a time jump 4 years for the next one. It will take place in 2022 not 2018 so maybe that's when he wakes up from his coma. Who knows super interested to see where they go with it.

[@sirmang9032]

I'm just hoping the Halloween Ends officially ends the entire Michael Myers story at this point. This series just gets worse and worse as times goes on and should have ended back in 1981, if not 1978.

[@foshizzle9458]

As a massive Halloween fan , I whole heartedly agree with you About most of the cringe dialogue. It didn’t seem real, what I did love was almost all of the micheal Myers scenes. They showed just how pure evil he is, especially in the scene where he makes sure lauries granddaughter watches her boyfriend brutally die. The flashback scene with micheal was amazing also. All in all atm I just don’t know where I’d fit this one in my top list of Halloween’s because the micheal stuff is great but most of the rest of movie isn’t. Great review man

[@tacobell4542]

I am an absolute Halloween fanboy. Michael is my favorite horror villain ever, and Halloween is my 2nd favorite franchise ever, just after Evil Dead. I loved Halloween Kills. The best part about your channel Cody is that you always tell your absolute opinion no matter what others think. So our opinions on it are very different, but that doesn’t bother me at all. I think it’s good for people to be able to disagree. I love hearing different perspectives and I have nothing but respect for you. This was a great review, I love your channel

[@akelly4207]

I’ve always liked the Loomis speeches in Halloween because it’s from him that we learn Michael is evil, not just a killer, but a dark force. But you are right, it doesn’t sit well when we hear it from anyone else. I think it was the juxtaposition of him being a professional in the field to treat people like Michael and yet he’s so adamant that can’t be done and they need to kill him. It still blows my mind. Either he’s right or he is a terrible doctor who has lost it big time.

[@sts25186055]

@@themeangene He loses it, but it’s because of the weight of fighting a seemingly immortal and unstoppable evil, not because he was mistaken about that evil’s existence. Dr. Loomis is the most iconic non-slasher character in the entire universe of horror films because of his eloquent, ballsy and all-out uncompromising approach to eradicating evil no matter the cost. Here’s to you, Doc.

[@AAllen-br8it]

Something else I absolutely adored about the scene where he's testing knives is a detail that not only communicates his childlike fascination, but also highlights how evil he is, is that he turns back to look at her while he's doing it as if he wants to make sure she's still watching him do this to her husband. So much about the inner workings of Michael's mind are portrayed through the mannerisms in that bit of screentime. JJC is the freaking man.

[@braxtonwages195]

Yeah, Michael makes his kills decorations. That’s why he stabbed all those knives into the old man’s back. I personally really liked that. I think all those decorations are his ‘art’ and make sense to him.

Cody - I’m a lifelong Halloween (series) fan and even have fun watching the “bad” ones like Resurrection. I COMPLETELY agree with everything you said in this hour long spoiler review. My thoughts on Halloween 2018 are nearly identical to yours too and like you, I was still pumped for this one. Super let down by this movie. Like 2018, there’s moments of Halloween brilliance but that’s very much outweighed by poor decisions. I’ll watch Halloween Ends of course but I’m not excited in the slightest, which might be the first time I’m saying that for all the new Halloween that have come out in my lifetime.

[@MegaSting1981]

I agree pretty much everything what you said. The main positives were; Michael. James Jude Courtney once again nailed the character imo. He's up there with Castle as THE Michael Myers. The fire scene was pretty well done and Michael emerging from the flaming house looked badass. The mask. Once again, it looked fantastic imo. Esp with the burnt half in some shots. The flashback sequence. They did a great job of recreating that. The part with Loomis was well done. They did the best they could with the mask. The bit where Myets walks out and just stands there was excellent. Some of the lighting and cinematography once again was spot on in this. Just like with H2018. That they got right. As well as most of the score. Although I wasn't a fan of the techno bit when allyson falls down the stairs and Michael walks down. The kills were brutal and varied. Myers was very angry in this one that's for sure. The main negatives; Pretty much everything else. The OG characters were so underused and/or used incorrectly. Tommy Doyle being the most frustrating. The whole mental patient thing was just ridiculous and made no sense to me. I was watching it like "Why is this a thing and why is it still going on" The ending I'm not a big fan of either. They should have went with the other ending of Laurie phoning Karen but Myers picking the phone up and you just hear breathing. There were other negatives too, like the stupid choices constantly being made by characters and some of the dialogue once again making no sense. 'EVIL DIES TONIGHT' Please don't say that again! I find this new trilogy so frustrating as thry do some great things right. But seen to get a lot of importance things wrong and those negatives overshadow the films for me.

Worst part for me was the public in the movie not knowing who Mike Myers is or what he looks like.

As soon as there was an escape of a known, multiple time murderer, it would have been everywhere with cops actually locking the place down.

So yeah, the town should know what he looks like. Plus the asylum would have current picture of Michael for security purposes. If they had to go with a mob lesson, it should have featured an escaped mental patient that at least had the same build as Myers, and it should have been much less Haddonfield meets The Crazies. imo

Well she was basically an agoraphobic. I doubt she would have been out, especially on halloween night.

Karen goes to Judith's bedroom after seeing the young Michael in the window. She was checking to see if someone was there. I also didn't like the hospital mob attacking the other mentally ill patient. Good review!

[@ladyscarfaceangel4616]

That part lost my husband too. I can see where you guys are coming from but I took it as just showing the consequences of an angry chaotic mob. I didn't see it the way he did. We both really enjoyed this movie though! I hate that it missed the mark for some, but I think there will be a little something for every kind of Halloween fan in all 3 films. We do have to remember that there are different kinds of Halloween fans but at the end of the day we are still Halloween fans. 🎃🔪 Hope the next one hits it for you guys who didn't like this one! 🖤🧡🖤🧡

[@carlnixon5141]

, the idea of the mob thinking the escaped patient was Michael, That goes back to the original movie when Loomis told Brackett not to alert the town because it would cause a panic. People would see Michael on every street corner....Etc. That's exactly what happened in that hospital with an angry mob out for blood. So I don't have a problem with that scene. As for saying that the people should've been able to recognize Michael because his face was probably shown all over the news after the 1978 murders? That was 40 years ago, Michael is now gray and balding with a mustache and beard. He would look nothing like Tony Moran (Who played Michael in that one scene) did in 1978 when Laurie pulled his mask off.

[@matthewharrison2971]

Based on your spoiler discussion the other day Cody, I feel the alternate ending is so much better than what we got

[@videojuegos3dlocurasextrem949]

Yeah, I think the alternate ending is when Laurie take the knife and says: I'm coming for you Michael. Because that was an importante scene in the trailer and it didn't was in the movie. I think Laurie calls Karen or something and she hears Michael's breathing and then, pum the end.

[@erikinhd13]

I bet that’s how Halloween Ends starts. Then Michael disappears and then they jump 4 years into the future

[@jayge17]

I've seen it twice, and am kind of still processing.. I get the feeling the flaws in the script and the character choices will stand out more with every rewatch, but I'm still on Cloud 9 about H Kills. I guess after the boring H5, the confusing H6, the disrespectful Resurrection, and the unpleasant dialogue and brutality of the Rob Zombie remakes, this new timeline of Halloween films feels like they're getting more right than they have in a long time. But I guess time, and next year's conclusion, will eventually tell..

Of all the reviews you have done over the years this is my favourite, I do hope you continue with this format for your spoiler reviews. You've pointed out somethings I never even noticed the first time watching Kills and the ending they cut would have been much better although I've only seen Kills the once. I still prefer 2018 over this just feels like a better structured movie. Great content as always mate.

[@dannygagne4693]

That opening flashback is so good. I love Loomis even more after this. I like the fact that he knows Michael so much that he never doubts the fact that he needs to be killed no matter what. What a great character. Their interpretation of the ending of Halloween 1978 is just perfect. Not a big fan of the movie, but those 15 minutes were awesome. EVIL DIES TONIGHT 🤭

That Loomis make up deserves every award there is. It's uncanny how it looks just like Donald Pleasance.

How I feel about your review of Halloween Kills, 👏👏👏👏👏👏 thank you for taking the time to go through the movie, because I definitely wanted to hear from someone that wanted to unpack the shenanigans known as Halloween Kills. Don't get me wrong there were some good parts but they were overshadowed by so many other things.

Been waiting for this Cody and have to say I totally agree with you. I had low expectations and unfortunately the plot was weak, the returned characters didn't have much to do. The kills were good but that couldn't save this for me.

I thought the second “gotcha” was too much and over used. I get it’s a sequel and they wanted to use that badass line from the first but, if you think about it... Karen said that line a few hours ago since it’s still the same night.

[@aaronlark294]

This was awesome man. My girlfriend loves Judy Greer and always gets mad when I say how abysmal she is in these two movies lol. I loved this extended take on it where you just sit and talk about every point in the movie, turns it almost into a podcast. Love it

[@xengar]

Here’s my nitpick: Two movies and everyone more or less knows that Myers is about. Why did no one tell the couple to leave the Myers house? No call? No police visit? Nothing? I guess everyone just kind of forgot.

[@andyholland2130]

Who was around to alert the couple living in the Myers house that Michael goes home after he kills? The sheriff in the original movie is in his 70s and busy with the scene at the hospital, Hawkins is in the hospital, nearly dead and everyone else who knows that is dead. No one else on the police force more or less even know anything about Michael and the sheriff completely blew off the big deal of him being loose in the 2018 movie. Everyone in this universe has been running on the assumption of Michael’s motivations from Loomis and Laurie. In this timeline, only Hawkins seems to know Michael just wants to go home and just kills whoever is in his way or comes to his house. Hawkins didn’t even make that conclusion until the end of the movie.

[@xengar]

@@andyholland2130 The couple isn't killed off until past the midpoint. By then, everyone knows. The townspeople have time to make posses, patrol streets, cause riots but no one thought to check the one house that Michael will inevitably return to? Just like before? In a world of unlimited texting no less.

[@andyholland2130]

@@xengar So in this timeline, Micheal has been unleashed in Haddonfield on two nights. The first being obviously in 1978 and the second being in 2018 and this movie. Michael went home only one time before. Everyone involved with the first night is either retired, dead, hospitalized (Hawkins), Brackett. Hawkins didn’t even put it together until towards the climax and only came to that conclusion because of his mother forcing him to play with Michael as a child. Lonnie figured it out while mapping out reported sighting of Michael. No one else has put that together yet that his motivation is to just go home. One of the biggest points that was driven home with the mob riot was most of the town doesn’t even know what Michael looks like let alone where he’s headed.

[@xengar]

@@andyholland2130Every time a Halloween film takes place in Haddonfield, Michael always returns to his house. Sometimes it’s early, sometimes it’s late; but when this movie puts such a heavy emphasis on the community of Haddonfield, it’s odd that nobody thought to let the couple know. Myers’ motivation aside, Tommy never thought to check? Marion? Hell, Laurie is so safety obsessed, you’d think she’d kept an eye on the Myers house all these years.

[@andyholland2130]

@@xengar And in this timeline it’s only the second time it’s happened. None of those characters are even aware of this behavior. You’re confusing information that the audience has for information the characters have.
