Halloween

Dark Harvest (2023)

You know those movies that are set in the 1960s but you just don’t believe that anyone involved in the movie was even alive during that time? This is one of those movies. Everyone seems very 21st century.

Halloween (2007)

So. Rob Zombie’s remake of John Carpenter’s Halloween. Sorry, I should say reimagining. In some ways, it reminded me of Michael Bay’s Nightmare on Elm Street remake. But mostly it didn’t remind me of that at all. And mostly I liked this one. I just wish it weren’t so long. It’s really long.

Halloween (1978)

There’s not much I can say about this movie that hasn’t already been said better elsewhere.

Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)

Happy Halloween! I hope you get all the candy you want tonight!

Tales of Halloween (2015)

Normally I have trouble rating anthology films. Often the segments vary in quality, tone, or entertainment value. I had no trouble rating this one, though. Five out of five, no question. Well, some questions.

Trick 'r Treat (2007)

I like this movie. It’s another Halloween anthology film, though all four (well, technically five) of the stories are by the same writer and director (Mike Dougherty) in this one. Four stories are called out but Leslie Bibb and Tahmoh Penikett star in the fifth story that’s effectively a prologue (…epilogue).
