at this rate i'm just glad dgg has multiple blockbusters under his belt

 

I think I loved this?

 

Back from the future eh

 

With everyone doing their rankings online, I have been tempted to do the same. I'm trying to watch the rest to re-evaluate before I do it.

 

If 3 isn’t in your top 3 then your ranking is invalid.

 

i rewatched zombie's h2 last night. cried through the whole thing

 

Fuck it, I'll pull mine over from the Kills thread.

GREAT
Halloween
Halloween II
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers
Halloween (2018)
Halloween III: Season of the Witch

GOOD/BAD-GOOD
Halloween Kills (probably)
Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers

OKAY
Halloween Ressurection
Halloween (2009)
Halloween H20

DOGSHIT
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers
Halloween 2 (2011)

 

Rewatched The Curse of Michael Myers last night and it is so bad and nearly every decision is baffling, but it's also bizarrely fun with great kills. Paul Rudd's overacting is unbelievable

 

Still need to see Resurrection and both of the Zombies, and I'll exclude 6 because I need to rewatch it

Haven't seen tier
The two new ones

 

The portrayal of trauma & PTSD in H2O is so much better than the laughable caricature of such that Laurie is made into in 2018, made even more egregious by the fact that 2018 seems to want to be taken seriously. That alone puts it in well below H2O for me.

 

First Zombie film is great, the second one is awful

 

I feel the opposite. Laurie was made into a paranoid trauma survivor in both but I feel it was much more flushed out in 2018 than H2O.

2018 also had a much better atmosphere by going back to the basics.

 

I thought H20 did a good job of portraying what is often seen as the more “normal” response to trauma where people seem happy and functioning but really there’s a lot going on underneath, whereas 2018 gave us the more “unhinged” response that could be seen as a stereotype but also does exist in the real world

 

I feel like DGG's Laurie is just a monologue machine, especially in Kills. The only nuance or character she shows is when she crashes Judy Greer's family dinner and chugs wine.

 

This thread has successfully convinced me I need to watch the Zombie movies, which I never planned on doing (I'm a lightweight fan of the franchise, there's a bunch I haven't seen). But apparently the Zombie ones are either absolute trash or misunderstood masterpieces that bring people to tears? Interesting.

 

The second one is absolute hot garbage. The first one I’ve seen a handful of times and have always enjoyed it

 

Halloween Series Ranked

Not sure if that works but if it does, I also put kills in the B area

 

OG Halloween and then the rest, which I could do without.

 

Good to hear. She’s my favorite new character. May even like her more than Laurie

 

Liked her very much in 2018, didn't think she (or Laurie) had much to do in Kills other than deliver bad dialogue lol

(once again, I like the movie)
