It was nearly a year ago that Ryan monologued about Rob Zombie's Halloween. Well, our 540th episode was an overdue time to monologue about John Carpenter's legendary original. In this one-man show, you'll get a record number of asides, but also some theories that might answer questions that people have had about the movie for the past 45 years. This father of all modern slasher movies is influential because of its style and its themes. It's also beautifully made (especially considering the low budget), the music is classic and Michael Myers was instantly an iconic villain. Although you can't kill the iconic Laurie Strode, just like you can't kill pure evil like Tall Mike. Reviewing the first flick is the focus here, but the entire series is discussed, complete with the slew of reboots and bad sequels. So watch out for stalkers carrying sharp knives as you hear all about Halloween just a few weeks before the scariest day on the entire calendar. Well, Actually: to call David Gordon Green's crappy trilogy a reboot or re-reboot isn't really true because it's acknowledged that those are sequels to the very first movie...and only to the very first movie. Also, this ISN'T the first time we've covered a Jamie Lee Curtis movie because we reviewed A Fish Called Wanda a few years ago. Check out "sparkplug.coffee/hyes" for some groovy coffee beans.
