It's a sad state of affairs when HALLOWEEN ENDS (2022) is being classed as a "bad", "terrible" or "disgraceful" motion picture and I worry for cinema as a whole if the only direction the mass want is nothing but cookie-cutter.
This film is a straaaaaaange beast and it probably holds the world record for the quickest development of a relationship on screen. Bloody hell, I wanted that relationship to succeed.
I'm going to be controversial here... did we need Michael Myers at all here? Maybe the 2 or so scenes we get in the sewer early into the film and that's it... maybe pass the evil on and Michael die of his wounds.
The evil is contagious element worked for me and Corey (played by Rohan Campbell) was the standout character.
Issues? Yes, there are some - the narration and memoir aspect weren't needed and Corey's mum... erm, I'll leave it there.
But I admire this film, oh boy do I. I'd rather the risk be taken than them fall back into the same old routine.
Now, before I start the Corey Appreciation Society, all I have left to say is... give a new biscuit a try.

HALLOWEEN JACK 3D (2022) is bringing old-school 3D shocks back and with a sweet, sweet, sweet dash of British humour.
There's plenty on offer here for horror fans with nods to the classics, including the opening credits and score of 'Friday the 13th Part III' being homaged. The running time is swift at 64mins and it's easy to be taken away with the events on screen.
I watched the feature in anaglyph 3D, where there was solid depth and some ghosting from time-to-time (mainly when the credits appear) but this small issue can be overlooked because overall the effect works.
There is a love for the genre on show here and now all I have to say is - bring on the 8+ sequels.

Does anyone have great memories of seeing THE BIG BOSS (1971) late night on Channel 4 (UK) in the 90s?
It was the first time I saw the uncut version after watching the VHS countless times in cut form. What a revelation it was - especially seeing it as a child.
The film is at times rough (very, very rough) in its quality and execution but there are so many iconic moments peppered throughout that all is immediately forgiven.
