*Heavy Breathing*

I was going to be cool and talk about the mirror shots they use din 2018 in homage to the original but they mention them in the special features.  I did get this Blu Ray set from Target, even though I already had a Blu Ray of the original Halloween. When this was first announced I knew I had to have it. It would be the next best thing next to seeing this as  a double feature at the drive in with somebody.  I saw some friends went to a double feature at a regular theater and that's cool too but it's not as magical as the drive in.  Anyway, watching these two films consecutively is a must, otherwise why buy this?  I remember seeing the reboot/sequel in the theater and liking it but thinking Michael could have been more brutal. Hopefully they will make him darker in the next two sequels.  Until then, mark off a couple hours at home, eat/drink junk and enjoy the magic that is Halloween.  This was a nice way to close this year's festival.  I enjoyed it, I wish it could have been longer but there's a loot going on right now over here, you don't want to hear about that, Happy Halloween!

  You don't want no smoke with the BX. As soon as I heard a movie called Vampires Vs the Bronx was being released I was all in for two reasons.  First, it is reminiscent of kid centric horror movie sub-genre of the 1980's such as The Monster Squad, The Lost Boys and even The Goonies and guess what?  I am there for it.  Secondly, I am Bodega Hive and will support The Kid Mero to keep the brand strong.  Ah ah ah!  This movie ended up being a delightfully entertaining experience that were it not for some profanity, would be fun for the whole family.  If you trust your 4 year old to hear the occasional "F" and "S" words without repeating it in pre-school then you good fam.   The story deals with a lot of businesses in the Bronx being bought out by a company that goes by the name of Murnau Properties.  Now, when I saw this, it took me out of the movie a little because it was too on the nose.  As a reminder from our f...

Tommy Lee Wallace and Universal meet to discuss continuing the legacy started by John Carpenter’s Halloween. TLW: So I got this idea for a movie right? UNI: Absolutely, Halloween was one of the biggest hits to date, people really seem to like horror movies and being scared, how do you plan to continue and improve this franchise? TLW: Well, we can call it Halloween 3 I guess UNI: So how are you bringing Michael Myers back to life after Halloween 2? TLW: Oh, well he’s going to play a reduced role in this one and we are going to focus more on the public. UNI: Interesting. So this will be from the perspective of Laurie and Dr. Loomis. Did we get Jamie Lee Curtis back? TLW: Haha well this is taking place in a different town with different people. The full title is called: Halloween III Season of the Witch. UNI: So this is about witches now? TLW: Actually, there’s no real witch in the movie, it’s a working title we’re thinking of changing...

Monster Vs Monster      It's already Halloween time over here and Universal Halloween Horror Nights  has a;ready announced they're doing a Stranger Things maze again this year, along with a Holidayz in Hell maze.  It's spelled wrong so that means it's gotta be scary.  For 2018 they had a similar scare zone with twisted holiday things as monsters, I thought it was just ok. I hate Easter and I have always hated Uncle Sam, screw that guy I don't have any uncles that look like that.         Today it was announced that they are having a Frankenstein Vs the WolfMan maze and while this is exciting, Universal has let classic horror fans down one too many times, so we are weary. Let's start out with the positive, Frankenstein Vs The Wolfman is a great property to use and this could be a very awesome maze.  This is the first film that featured the horror crossover in an effort to cash in on the monster fever, Universal had...
