Why Halloween kills are better than Halloween endings

The end of Halloween Peacock hit yesterday, like most Halloween The sequel, it has already generated a lot of controversy online. Currently, the latest David Gordon Green horror movie is in the works rotten tomatoes by 41% critics and 57% audience. This is not much different from its predecessor, Halloween killswhich has 39% and 66%. Since the fall of the new movie, there’s been a lot of debate about what’s best: Kills or finish. Obviously it’s all about different tastes and there’s no right or wrong answer, but I’m here to explain the main reason why I’m better Halloween kills to me The end of Halloween. Warning: spoilers ahead…

Whether you like the late addition of Rohan Campbell’s Corey (personally, I don’t) and the fact that this was his story more than that of Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) or Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney), there’s another issue with The end of Halloween Which makes it less convincing than Halloween killQ: Victims. in KillsGreen does a great job of creating the characters you instantly love, and don’t want to watch die. There are three different pairs presented in Kills They were all killed by Michael (well, Diva Tyler’s Sondra was revealed to be still alive in finish), and Green lets you root them within the short period of time they appear on screen.

Marcus (Michael Smallwood) and Vanessa (Carmella McNeil) are the bar couple who have hit celebs Haddonfield, Tommy (Anthony Michael Hall), Lindsay (Kyle Richards), and Marion (Nancy Stevens). They join the crusade against Michael and both meet horrific (and darkly funny) endings. By the time Michael is killed, you know very little about them, and you can’t help but feel sad to see them gone. Sondra and Phil (Lenny Clarke) are the cute, brave old couple who are having a nice time at home with their drone when Michael knocks on the door. They were in the crossfire simply for being Laurie’s neighbors, and it breaks your heart as you watch Sondra watch her husband die (although it’s an awesome death). Finally, Big John (Scott MacArthur) and Little John (Michael MacDonald) are the couple who bought the Myers house, and their cheeky dialogue and silly interactions with some neighborhood kids are enough to win them affection before Michael returns home. In addition to these newcomers, most of the returning characters die in them Kills They are also people we invest in. deaths Kills They are good, fun times and have emotional weight too, which isn’t the case finish.

in The end of Halloween Nearly everyone killed by Cory and Michael is unpleasant. Between Allison’s boisterous ex-wives, Cory’s tormenting bullies, Allison’s rude co-workers, the obnoxious DJ, and Cory’s annoying mother, I’m not entirely sad to see anyone get slaughtered. However, none of them are bad enough that you are actively rooting for their death, too. Yes, most kills are entertaining, but it’s even more exciting when you root characters to live…or even root them until they die.

in KillsDeath is preceded by funny scenes among the beloved characters, but finish It makes the audience sit up in a disturbing confrontation after a disturbing confrontation before the massacre. Played by Michael Barbieri, Destiny Moon, Joey Harris, and Martin, the bullies are high school favorites and feel more like cartoons than actual people. They somehow manage to bump into Corey multiple times over the course of three days, and their actions always have dire consequences that end up injuring Corey until he stabilizes and gets hit. By the time they have their final showdown, you’re relieved that you don’t have to see these kids pick an adult man again, which is the style of the entire movie. After sitting through several boring interactions, you don’t root for victims or cory, and that lowers the risk. In the end, the character’s death carries no weight until Cory kills himself and allows the film to be Laurie again.

As for the rest The end of HalloweenThere are a lot of other things to criticize, but the same can be said about them Halloween kills. No matter which movie you like, it’s safe to say that nothing has touched the original Halloween. Interestingly, every franchise rating I saw was completely different (here for me), which could lead to some interesting discussions. tell us where The end of Halloween Drop your ranking in the comments!
