Well. I can't say it was a shock that this film sucked so badly. Halloween 2018 was ok, had some real clunky and corny dialogue and cliche ridden script but nostalgia helped us along and it was a 5/10 film at best. Then Halloween Kills arrived and to say that was a bad BAD film would be an understatement. Very poor and totally illogical script with the stupidest dialouge put to film. It made no sense whatsoever!? And apart from some fun deaths and the scenes with a young Loomis it was a total disaster that tested and broke many Halloween fans tolerance limits.
"Endless Evil Dies" Tonight that drove viewers up the wall and caused headaches with the eye rolls it caused. Why were these people so angry about a man that had been locked away for 40 years!? (Remember this continues after the first film) Nonsense logic. Idiotic decisions people made throughout, Strode Family idiocy and Laurie in a Hospital bed throughout. .......so when it came to the END. Expectations were LOW.
I went into the film (streamed) trying to forget what a disaster Kills was and give it a chance.
The film was more of a drama for the first 50minutes, focused on unlikable, badly written characters and Laurie suddenly deciding she would forget about it and get on with her life and not worry!......er.... OK. Myers still not been found after 4 years.
They tried to create a new storyline about the town people still being paranoid etc after Myers went missing yet again, commiting suicide and killings etc and then totally forgot about it and never mentioned it again. Characters randomly and conveniently showed up at the right place just to provide a little plot line help in the bar or supermarket. Hilariously tacked on.
Myers is hardly in the film and this is the real insult. He becomes a side character in what was to be the big final showdown between him and Laurie Strode. But they inexplicably dumped that for a weak new storyline about a babysitter suddenly becoming evil because he looked Myers in the eyes once!? What the... ...!!! Wow. Who thought that was a great idea? Were the script writers drunk or high!? Puzzling (and as I said earlier) totally disrespectful to the fans who have followed these two characters since the 70s.
The producers, script writers and Director should be ashamed of themselves. Halloween will never be able to rid itself of the stain these last two films have caused. And it's inevitable they will bring it back sometime to squeeze more blood out of poor Michael Myers mythology.
Watch it if you must. It really is bad.
Halloween is now a joke series.
