Review of Halloween (2018) by Jamesq — 19 Oct 2018
A welcome return to form for this franchise, although not without its own problems. Brings some novel themes to the slasher framework and Jamie Lee Curtis is fantastic; the "kill the teenagers" elements can take away from that main storyline (and our main emotional investment in the film), but thankfully they are mainly handled with gory aplomb: well-shot suspense sequences, startling death scenes, a nice atmosphere of eerie calmness and in my opinion the best take on Michael Myers since the 1978 original.
Curious to see it again, so that's a good sign.
