Yes....thats a good take, but then why not SHOW something of that effect..a small flash back of him stumbling..breathing hard/ bleeding..crawling into the sewer to drop down etc..snap back to present day. I get that we shoulndt be hand held in film, I do hate it, but when its Myers, at the end of the second film ( of this trilogy) you are basically left thinking he is more than a "man" and more a personification of just unrelenting evil.

He was breathing pretty hard when you first see him, plus stumbling around, a flashback would have been a good addition but i think they sold his weakened state reasonably well when you see him getting knocked around so easily.

I didn't mind the first of the new trilogy but the second went downhill.

Normally I wouldn't read spoilers but curiosity got the better of me and now I've lost all motivation to watch the third :-(

I thought it might be a bad idea to make a new trilogy, the first had some promise but probably should have ended there as it was no masterpiece. The second felt like it had completely overstayed it's return, now this one I feel has really tarnished John Carpenters name and original work. I wish he wasn't associated with it, like all the 80s and 90s sequels that could be put to one side.

He was an executive producer/creative consultant.

In the scheme of things I doubt he had much to do with it, particularly after 2018

It'll be remade at some point in the future, these movies cost basically pennies to make compared to the cgi spoogeathons and basically always turn a decent profit vs their budget.

Well it was better than Kills, but still not great.

I seen the last one and i thought it was awful. Take it this one is not much better?

It's very different, tells a different story. IMO worth a watch so you can connect some of the aftermath from kills with this.

Disagree. This was absolute garbage and is a "Halloween" film in name only.

So many stupid things happen throughout it just got stupid.

Indeed, it asked more questions than got answered.

Why did Laurie stop being obsessed with Michael just because he'd disappeared for 4 years when she'd previously obsessed over him for 30 years?

Why did Michael go from one of the largest killing sprees to living in a sewer eating rats?

Why did Michael spare Corey?

If killing rejuvenated Michael and this wasn't his first kill (homeless guy hinted as such) then who the hell did he manage to kill in a weaker state?

How were Corey and Michael co-ordinating kills given that Michael hasn't spoken?

If you can kill Michael by slashing his wrists and neck, how do you explain all the other injuries that definitely should have killed him?

It felt like a different movie that they shoehorned Halloween in to.
