Halloween getting shitty reviews
- Thread starter I. Cold
- Start date
1. The young Michael was 10 years old, not 17. He spent 17 years in the asylum, which would make him 27 when he got out, wouls also make his baby sister about 18, which is how old she seemed in the second half.
2. Danny Trejo's charactor got to know Michael really well, he had worked with him for 17 years, and although it could have been explained better, I think Michael thought of him as a friend, hence the uncuffed buisness. The new guy was talking shit to him.
3. At that point, he was not a serial killer, He was only tied to the murders of his family, and the nurse. One could assume that all he did was sit in the cell and make masks, he didn't talk, I would think the asylum wouldn't have him cuffed that often.
4. It was the 70's, not the 50's.

movie was made no sense. all it is was a killing spree. how would he know how his baby sister looks 17 years later? and how does he break into houses without being caught? and how is it that he gets blapped 5x, stabbed in the neck and still manages to get up? and why the fuck does he kill people when their naked. and why doesnt he rape?
'Halloween' slashes way to top of US box office

LOS ANGELES (AFP) — The latest version of the knife-slashing "Halloween" horror tale topped the North American box office for the Labor Day weekend, industry estimates showed Monday.
Movie attendance for the three-day weekend that marks the end of the US summer break was expected to smash the previous Labor Day holiday mark with a 146 million-dollar-take for all films -- 120.04 million for the top 12 -- according to estimates by Exhibitor Relations, which tracks ticket sales.
Fright fest "Halloween," the newest in the nearly 30-year-old franchise, led the way for MGM and was projected to take in 31 million dollars in its debut weekend.
The film has director Rob Zombie turning John Carpenter's 1978 original story of deranged Halloween night slasher Mike Myers into an ocean of blood, complete with a gory account of Myers' disturbed childhood.
"Film-goers looking for copious amounts of mindless violence won't be disappointed," the San Francisco Chronicle wrote.
Teen sex comedy "Superbad," from the creator of hits "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" and "Knocked Up," was running second at the region's theaters over the weekend, expected to pull in 15 million dollars for Sony.
"Balls of Fury," in its debut weekend, followed in third place with 14 million. Universal's spy thriller "The Bourne Ultimatum" earned 14.3 million and the action flick "Rush Hour 3" took in 10.3 million.
Filling out the top 10 for the four day Friday to Monday period, according to Exhibitor Relations projections, were "Mr. Bean's Holiday" (8.1 million), "The Nanny Diaries" (5.2 million), "Death Sentence" (5.1 million), "War" (5.1 million), and "Stardust" (3.9 million).
Final figures are expected Tuesday.
