Halloween horror nights 2020. Halloween (2018)
Director: David Gordon Green
What can I say about this movie? I love the 1978 original, it is tense, atmospheric and still to this day, very unsettling. When I found out they were doing ANOTHER sequel, I almost chose to ignore it. But then I found out they were erasing all the previous sequels from this timeline, and Halloween 2018 would be the official sequel, 40 years on. Now that really intrigued me, especially when it became apparent it was moving forwards with John Carpenters consent and input, and a returning performance from the original Scream Queen herself, the legendary Jaime Lee Curtis.
But let's not forget that the previous sequels were, to put it as nicely as possible, a mixed bag. For me, only the first sequel and the 1998 surprise hit Halloween H20 (which also erased much of the franchises timeline, choosing to eradicate from canon all the previous sequels except the first) were any good. I am happy to say that, for the most part, Halloween 2018 measures up quite nicely to these two.
I will start with the good: a really decent cast. Great soundtrack. Great build up. Great cinematography, which keeps the film looking and feeling a lot like the first. This is a very old fashioned (but not dated) looking horror movie.
To keep this as spoiler free as possible, I will just praise the obvious: The initial killing spree once Myers returns is absolutely incredible to watch, and it's chilling to a level that matches the original. The deaths are inventive, but most importantly all the most horrific scenes are acted very well, whilst not being as gory as you might expect ( and no less effective for it either. For the first two thirds of its runtime, Halloween 2018 is a five star horror.
But oh boy, it messes up on its way to the end. Laurie Strode (Curtis) apparently forgot she was in the Halloween franchise and stepped over into Home Alone; we have a really cheesy thread of story concerning a doctor (who at one point is referred to obviously as being "the new Loomis" who has a dastardly plan to observe and record Myers behaviour now he is free (ok I admit this is a bit of a spoiler) and then we have a very quick ending which left me with the impression the story isn't quite over.
Again.
Oh boy, this was a really frustrating movie. Jaime Lee Curtis returns, and does a fine job creating empathy for a character that by the end seems to be as crazily phycotic as the insane murderer she fears so much. It isn't the worst character development, and is handled quite well, but she came off almost cartoonish at times. We understand she went through a hell of an ordeal in 1978, but with the erased timeline, which indicates absolutely no traumatic events in the meantime, it is hard to understand why she has never recovered fully. As one character said at the start of the movie, in the grand scheme of things what happened to the town and Strode in the first movie is hardly the worst ordeal known to man. That this movie fails to fully justify her current paranoia and obsession with Myers returning, it's hard to really take her too seriously.
Along these lines, her daughter Karen (Judy Greer) is portrayed as dismissive and in her own way very damaged by the intense fear and paranoia that her mother has never been able to let go of. This element had a lot of potential to dig deeper into the phycological nature of trauma, and with the right script we could have had a very different movie telling a stronger story of what it is like to live with PTSD and the very real horror that can come from it. Unfortunately, by the time things kick off, her role felt forced and the character appears to be the film makers desperate attempt to set up a new protagonist should Curtis ever retire. This brings us to Laurie Strodes granddaughter Allyson, played incredibly well by Andi Matichak. For me she gave a standout performance in a role that could easily have been phoned in. She didn't come across a typical scream queen, and I thought she lived up well to Jaime Lee Curtis original performance in the first movie. Nothing original going on here, just a really great performance that helps keep the show going.
One of the minor issues I had with this movie was that there were no strong characters presented outside of the mother/daughter/granddaughter unit. All the male characters felt immediately like potential victims or comic side relief, and the police seemed far too comical at times to ring true. I did wonder if this was intentional, perhaps a commentary on how few horror movies there are where the girl wins without needing to resort to relying on a man. And had it been executed with more subtlety and stronger characters, it could have worked and been very clever. But it felt quite shallow, and whilst I hesitate to call this film sexist, it did feel a little frustrating that to make the female characters more convincingly strong they had to downplay the male roles. Perhaps I am just overthinking.
There is good and there is bad in this movie. When it hits the right notes (which is fairly often) it is a great movie. I recommend the movie for the first half especially, but I think the ending is going to be divisive and split opinion down the middle. As far as cheesy horror endings go, I enjoyed it. It felt very hokey and reminded me of a lot of the horror movies that came out in the 90s after the massive success of the first Scream. Personally, it's a style of horror I always enjoy, especially when done well (Halloween H20, Urban Legend, Cherry Falls and the more recent meta-horror Cabin In The Woods come to mind as movies I enjoy, even if the quality does vary considerably.
Halloween 2018 is just fine. It had the potential to be a very effective and scary horror, and I am sure for many less ardent horror fans it will work just fine. But it has its flaws, which left me wanting a lot more from the experience. One of my most anticipated movies in years ended up being a fun, yet rather empty, viewing experience.
6/10.
