Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers 1995

★½ Watched 25 Oct 2021

Tries to do a lot of different things and it’s just a mess, so far away from the simplicity which made the original film so great.
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers 1989

★★½ Watched 24 Oct 2021

What is it with these films having good endings and then retconning it at the start of the next one 😂
Have to say Danielle Harris gives really good performances in both Halloween 4 & 5.
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers 1988

★★★ Watched 24 Oct 2021

Done the H20 & H40 timelines, might as well try the sequel timeline now.
Don’t know why but this is the one that I can most clearly remember watching as a youngster. Was probably the only one I had on DVD at the time 🤷‍♂️
Halloween: Resurrection 2002

★ Watched 23 Oct 2021

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

The start of this film just ruins how great an ending H20 has, and at the same time that’s the only good bit of the film (kinda fun to watch as an alternate ending scene to H20). I can’t really get on board after that, the idea is decent but it fails to hold my interest. The characters are terrible. Will avoid this film in future.

The Loomis scenes 😮
Richard Jewell 2019

★★★★ Watched 19 Oct 2021

Fantastic performances especially Paul Walter-Hauser. Really interesting story which I knew nothing about prior to watching this film.
Halloween 2018

★★★★ Rewatched 20 Oct 2021

Much better on rewatch, was originally disappointed by it at the cinema in 2018 but enjoyed it a lot this time.
Rise of the Footsoldier 2007

Help 2021

★★★ Watched 19 Sep 2021

Jodie Comer is phenomenal. It’s very realistic and difficult to watch, I’m sure in years to come we can use this film as a reminder of how terrible this period was. Unfortunately the last 20 minutes or so gets a bit ridiculous which took me out the film completely.
Kate 2021

★★★ Watched 20 Sep 2021

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

This film had some really brutal and gory action and fight scenes, but that car chase scene was terrible. MEW is very good in the leading role but for what starts as a simple story, there then becomes a lot of different characters involved and I started to lose interest. The stuff with WH you can see coming from a mile off as well. But overall it’s a decent one time watch.
Jolt 2021

★★★ Watched 18 Sep 2021

Kate Beckinsale gives a good performance, basically just beating people up and swearing but that’s all fun with me. The story is very basic, and I really didn’t expect this to be a comedy attempt but once you get used to the style of it, it’s enjoyable enough.
Free Guy 2021

★★★★ Watched 18 Aug 2021

Really cool concept, nice visuals and action scenes. Good cast, Ryan Reynolds is great for this sort of role but Jodie Comer was my favourite character. Overall just good fun.
