Actually like the original in 78 but the newest is a fav too.

Exactly what I was going to say. Those were by far the best two.

Is that the one where the prostitutes are getting murdered or something?

Gonna go '78 as well.

that's a negative.

first off, it's subtitled, which i know is the death knell for a lot here. it starts off with with credits, which had me wondering if i hit resume movie instead of restart (think i started it and fell asleep before). follows with 10 minutes of what appeared to be interviews with the would be cast of characters that added nothing.

so, it eventually finally starts with a pretty cool dance number (this was the highlight of the movie), and from there they go to shots between two characters talking in office style segments. before learning the spike was punched with lsd and ineffectively going after people that didn't drink, assuming it was them. very dumb.

i imagine it was highly rated due to this being from the guy that did enter the void and
Irréversible and containing an artsy dance number or two.

i did see hands of the ripper from the 70s or something where i think that was the gist, this was not that.

I think a lot of it has to do with the hair and eyes. My next two after 78 and 18 would be 02 and 95

 

[Taddy Mason]

i guess i'd go original, though i don't recall ever watching them all back to back or recalling much of a change to be honest.

 

[Taddy Mason]

did watch little monsters on hulu over the weekend and that was fun enough

Agreed. They did an excellent job on the newest look.

Only 3 of them were starkly different to me. In 1988, Halloween 4, they went with a bleached look that looked a tad cartoonish. Then Rob Zombie’s remakes were a much darker look. And then of course the newest look.

I'll say that the first and the last ones are my favorites.

Well for 88 and 89, the mask looks like just doesn't fit appropriately.

Watched Mercy Black last night with the wife... well sort of, I fell asleep about an hour in and kept zoning in and out. I caught the ending though, another one where I wasn't impressed.

And the demon/monster/whatever looked.... I don't want to say bad... but rather stupid.

Watched 3 From Hell yesterday. Slightly disappointed in it. No Capt Spaulding hurt but understandable due to his health. He looked like hell. The half brother angle didn’t work for me at all. Seemed like a stretch to fill the Capt void. Baby being real looney toons wasn’t good either. Entertaining yet a lame follow up to The Devils Rejects.

Haig was definitely the best part of the first two in my opinion. Moseley is also good at chewing up scenery. Never really cared about Sheri Moon Zombie one way or the other. I might check this out eventually but thought that it ended fine with the ending of The Devils Rejects and didn't need a third movie.
