- The night he came home continues in Rick Rosenthal's Halloween II.

The best part is when he walked through the glass.. driven,powerful and scary
My favorite film in the franchise. One theory that someone brought up one time that might make the robotic myers make sense: At the end of the first, Michael got stabbed in the neck, the torso, the eye, was shot 6 times and fell off a balcony. Perhaps the human aspect of Michael died at the end of H1 and only the pure evil remains in H2. The evil is now THE ONLY thing keeping Michael alive. I imagine he would walk like a zombie after taking such a beating in the first film.
Kris B That’s what I’ve always said, it’s a logical progression as far as the performances between Nick Castle and Dick Warlock is concerned.
Exactly, that’s what i always thought
I met Dick Warlock years ago, he told me that he purposely slowed down as a result of his injuries and him becoming more ghostly throughout the night..
Agreed excellent point. Myself I thought Warlock was by far the best Shape.
@@Anthonycheesman33 no he doesn't
“They found a body! It was Annie!” I never realized how bad his acting was there lmao.
I, I SHOT HIM SIX TIMES!
I SHOT HIM I SHOT THE HEART!

Samhain. It means the lord of the dead.
Love Halloween 2, it scared the shit out of me and my sis when we first watched it back in 81.
@Joel Johnson you right on that, you should watch this vid ruclips.net/video/Rk_IYhUYq4o/видео.html
Glad Michael didn't care about his own hand while holding her under SCALDING hot water. He really is the boogeyman.
Anthony Clark Michael likes to play and torture his victims
He probably dosent feel pain there are some crazies who just dont. He may have that nerve disease or just trained his body to take pain.
An interesting bit of trivia I read recently is that for the therapy tub scene, the tub actual had cold water in it, not hot. The actor said he was very uncomfortable from the temperature. The actress was a trooper throughout the filming but caught a nasty ear infection in the process. Source: the podcast called “Halloweenies.” Great show.
Cosidering how strong he is, I dont it would hurt him.
Anthony Clark actually hot and cold air back and forth rapidly is incredibly painful
Since he was shot 6 times, In my mind that was the reason why he moves slow and going down the stairwells kind of like he was going to collapse any moment.... but he didn't. The fact that he was shot and was still walking around killing people the bullets were still in him and that's why he was walking slow and he nailed it as far as I'm concerned
Makes perfect sense now you bring it up.
@@jdjdjcjdjx3107 he didn't walk slow, he just walked.
Explain him just walking through the door i his face aint that strong to break glass
@@jdjdjcjdjx3107 i got your dumbass
Matt Ryan relax kid
My favorite part is how he just goes into a random house & just kills the babysitter.
She wasn't even babysitting, just home alone. It was just to add more to the body count I guess.
I thought h 2 was really underrated, I really enjoyed it ✌️😊
I'm biased, but sometimes I like the second movie more than the first in the Halloween series!
@Joel Johnson , I still see the flaws in Halloween II (1981), but it's still a very enjoyable movie.
@Joel Johnson did you see this one ruclips.net/video/Rk_IYhUYq4o/видео.html
I love H2!!!! H1 is overrated!!!!
@@my3rs307 , I wouldn't say overrated, but in my biased opinion, I totally like both equally, but about 40%+ of the time, I totally like Halloween II more than the first one.
@@kennypham3856 i respect H1 for what it did, but i don't really enjoy it, and it's not that rewatchable for me as H2
Michael Myers creeping around that hospital is just terrifying.
I've always been fine with the brother and sister connection. To me, it almost makes Myers seem more evil in a sense because he doesn't want to kill his sister because she did something to him - he wants to kill her just BECAUSE she's his sister, almost as though he despises the fact he has a familial bond with anyone. Whereas most brothers would go out of their way to protect their siblings, especially sisters, Myers goes out of his way to kill them. I also don't think it takes away from the fact that Michael just likes to kill in general because of all the other people he killed that he didn't have to to get to Laurie. To me, this just explains why, even in the first one, he seems to have a particular goal in killing Laurie, not that he doesn't want to kill others, too.
His goal wasn't to kill Laurie In the original 1978 movie, Myers saw Laurie by chance when she dropped of the keys for her father plain and simple, he wasn't there waiting for her and he certainly didn't know she would show up, he set is sight on her and followed her, once she met up with annie and lynda he set his sight on them too. Everything was random.
@Universe7Gaming Maybe I'm projecting the second film on to the first a little, but to me, it always seemed like he had a particular determination to kill Laurie, even in just the first film, at least just from my point of view. I mean, I can't really argue the original intent as Carpenter has clearly stated it was all originally random, but I guess the connection has just never bothered me. I thought it fit nicely, but some don't, which is fine.
@Stone Gasman, For me it wasn't the connection that ruined the franchise, but the fact that there WAS a franchise. I actually think the Michael Myers story should have stopped after II and that they should have pursued Carpenter's original idea of wanting to make a new Halloween movie every year about a different story.
To be honest, I was surprised when I found out that Carpenter actually wasn't too fond of the idea of the brother and sister angle and that it was originally supposed to be totally random. (Not shocked surprised, but just like, "Oh really? Huh.") Just because I thought it flowed together so well. Maybe I'm just seeing things a little differently or didn't see what some did, but that bit was actually a surprise to me. Maybe it's because I never saw it that way that I'm not bothered by the sibling connection.
Ehh the brother and sister angle was one of the worst things to happen to the series. Halloween 2 could've been fine without it. It didn't need that at all because all the motivation was there so to speak....Loomis popped his has in the chest 6 times or whatever to stop him from killing Laurie and he wanted revenge 🤷🏿♂️simple
This is my favorite sequal of this franchise.
I agree
Me too .
I love this sequel. I like 4 and Halloween 2018 a little better but it's definitely a great sequel.
I echo that sentiment!
King Pepsi in 4 Michael became a fucking inhuman psychopath and I love it
I like this movie so much not as good as the original but still a good film.
I personally like it more.
Agreed
i agree i love the original Halloween but i like Halloween 2 better
Nick B silence it’s nothing compared to orignal
suny123boy1 no it ain’t
I like how Loomis is more of a main character flik.
Personally, i love this movie! Dick is an amazing Shape, imao the zombie walk etc could come from all those injuries limitations during the movies, and maybe lack of masks and need to wear what he finds! I don't have any problem with the sister thing, and Jamie Lee Curtis played ok for what she had in this one! It always scares me the idea of someone just not stopping to come after you, no matter what and the burning Michael is one of my favourites moments ever in a horror movie! It's definetly more creepy, but maybe not as enjoyable as the 1st movie, but i think it's the kind of movies were the flaws can be seen as plot-ideas and are working very well!
I think it's scarier known someone has a brother who's trying to kill her than a be random guy who wants her dead. A brother is meant to be the one you rely on to protect her not kill her.
Becky Lynch?
@@GomerKyle1979 . Yes that is me. And who are you?
Yeah, but it somehow breaks it because in the original he just wanted to kill, no reason to kill her, just a victim! In the sequel the motivation is somehow like "it's obvious why he's after her, family"
Not really. Michael is motiveless evil. It’s far scarier making him kill for a reason we will never know of, than making him kill for a human motivation. He’s the boogeyman, not a human being.
@Nick B. Not at all. He only killed randomly in like, the first act of the movie, probably not even all of that. The second he heard that Laurie was at the HM hospital, the rest of the movie is him killing just to kill her.
Personally, I think it would have made more sense and been more interesting to have Michael pursue Laurie in this just because she survived. Up to that point, she had been the only one of his victims to survive him. I think it would be reasonable to think that someone so obsessed with killing as Michael would become obsessed with the one woman he couldn’t kill and become obsessed with her. No sibling connection required.
The easiest film to watch in the series for me. I can pop this one in anytime. H2 is my favorite.
Great review. I personally enjoy the brother sister angle. But thats just me. Glad you like the film.
I love H2. The brother sister angle made sense because he murdered his older sister, and shows why he came home. Otherwise why go home? Why not just have him go to Chicago and kill with impunity? Also, it’s hard to call the horror elements in this film cliche when this was still one of the first slasher films. Loomis’ side story was him trying to find Michael. The school thing was cheesy, but I was fine with the reveal of the sibling connection. And Laurie wasn’t totally clueless, since she was recalling childhood memories of visiting Michael in the mental ward. And the ending with the Mr. Sandman song and the flames is perfect. I remember having nightmares about this movie, how terrified I was during the whole movie, because you feel as helpless as Laurie in trying to get away from Myers. Such a great movie, and a great sequel to the original. The soundtrack was awesome with the 80s synth, and the forced perspectives that were used to build tension. Loved this movie!
My mother always had a theory that Michael Myers was a robot. When h3 came out she said "told ya". Would be feasible if we never saw young Michael.
The brother / sister storyline is kind of a juxtaposition for me. If he’s just a dark evil killer, why does he keep pursuing her? She got away? So what, many other human beings to dispatch from the earth. That to me would be the mindset of someone who just wants to kill. He can’t just be OCD so he has to get her, there HAS to be a motivation to keep pursuing her. Otherwise he could’ve just got up from absorbing Loomis’ rounds and found another teenage party to brutalize.
The sessions at the beginning are called Leemis Sessions lmao
I like Halloween II (1981).
In my honest opinion it's the second best in the Franchise after the Original. You can actually end the Halloween Franchise here because *Spoilers* Michael Myers and Dr. Loomis both die at the end of the Movie (Yes, I know that it was late retconned in H4 and H20 but if you pretend that those Movies don't exist, you pretty much assume that those two died). No more Sequels!
But we will see if Halloween (2018) can proof me wrong and show me a better Sequel to the 1978 Original Halloween.
I pretend that none of the sequels exist
Carpenter said he wrote this screenplay because he was forced into it and got through it by drinking a six pack of Budweiser every night
I like the stiff-moving Michael as opposed to the way he moves at times in Halloween (1978)…Seems scarier
Say whatever you want about Scream, it’s the exact point they make that not having a motivation makes shit so much more terrifying. Exactly like you said why the sibling arc brings Michael down a notch. I very much enjoy the concept in the new one that she’s basically unfinished business. This one for sure made Halloween a slasher series. Good one yet again bud. Watching Halloween 3 this week so I’ll be waiting to watch that review til after. Onward to 4!
Also love the cheese of the Blonde nurse being lifted off the ground with a scalpel, as if that would ever be possible lol
To be fair with original Halloween 2 i prefer this level of violence than rob zombie Halloween 2
The new one is supposed to be more violent then the rob zombie films.
David Cottone I prefer the level of violence in Halloween 6.
@@ForgottenHorrorchannel He means the original one!
@@nickb9718 i was replying to David Cottone!
@@ForgottenHorrorchannel Alright then.
Always thought Halloween II was darker and more vicious than Friday the 13th part 2.
I mean they are different franchises so...
@@mystery4561 See above.
I really hate the drunken addition of the brother/sister aspect. It was so much better when it was purely because of her going to the door of the house, arousing his morbid curiosity... kind of like Leatherface killing to protect his home from intruders. Michael would have started with any random person, that night, but Laurie gave him a target.
Him going after Laurie the whole first movie even though his killing was supposed to be so random didn't fit as much to me as him trying to end his bloodline.
How come no one ever mentions that Ben Tramer could be considered another victim of Michael Myers considering that Dick Warlock was the cop who hit him and he played Michael in this movie
@Mr. Mojo Risin no problem. A lot of people still don't know that was him that played the cop, or that he is one of the security guys in part 3 either
I would honestly want to see the cody intro in a film
I really like the opening credits and updated theme in that movie
While not my favorite, I have a sentimental connection to this movie because it came out a few days after I was born. It’s a good sequel, but if you’re able to get your hands on the 2-Disc Shout Factory blu ray, GET IT. The 2nd disc has the extended TV version that tones down the “Friday” gore/kill factor and snail-paced scenes of the theatrical version and adds more scenes of Laurie Strode and some of the other characters. It’s more character-driven and much better paced and constructed in the narrative. It’s my overall favorite cut of Halloween II. 🎃 Great job, Cody!
This tv cut is a big mess imo. But that’s only my opinion.
I liked that the sequel was a little more vicious.
Well he probably didn't move right because he get's shot 6 times in the first movie, then more times in part II
Love this film but I 100% agree with you on the Brother-Sister thing
The best part about this review is Cody Leach hinself. Man, you have this down to T. You know who you are, you know how you feel about this franchise and we sit back and listen to the genius of it all. Every single one of these reviews.
I could talk to you for hours about these movies and never get bored. Great, great job! Oh, and thank you for not mentioning the whole “she’s obviously wearing a wig” thing.
Never noticed or cared in the least until everyone stared complaining about it. She’s obviously doing it for the new film too. So will everyone focus on that? Hopefully not.
Thanks a lot man. Her hair never bothered me actually
Cody Leach exactly
Nice work on the Halloween 2 review. I just wish were could have done this series together but we're doing Halloween (2007) tonight. But still we'll keep you guys in our heart Cody Leach.
That needle to the eye is my favorite kill. Jacuzzi dip is close #2.
We are so close to the new movie you can almost hear the theme song
It's the best sequel for me personally I'm one of those who watches Halloween and this film back to back it's a great double feature. The first one is a classic and is an all around better film, but there's parts of Halloween 2 that I look forward to seeing after watching the first film. The mask is the same from the first film, and while looking somewhat different is the last time the mask looked anything like the one from the first film. I actually like that Halloween 2 is more violent, but I never felt it was overdone.
My biggest issue with this film is how little Laurie is utilized in the sequel, and considering the revelations she should have been more involved throughout. I'm mixed on the choice to make Laurie and Micheal siblings. On one hand it gives him motivation for stalking Laurie, and why he possibly comes home in the first place, on the other hand it ruins the mystery, and the execution of this revelation isn't handled all that well, and does make the rest of the sequels contrived/goofy.
I still feel as a plot twist it works well enough if this was meant to be the last film, but obviously that isn't the case. Other than that I really enjoy everything else about Halloween 2, any other issues I have are more nitpicks. Halloween 2 is the only sequel I really like, and is the only one that felt like it had any reason to exist. H20 has it's fans, and I guess it makes a decent trilogy, but that film doesn't really do anything for me personally, it's just alright I watch it occasionally, but I don't have much feelings towards it one way or another.
Now Halloween Kills feels like a companion to Halloween 2018
True. However Kills doesn’t not have a definitive ending like Halloween II. Halloween Kills suffers because the 3rd movie Halloween Ends… if they pasted the ending of Halloween Ends into Kills it would have been perfect
Halloween will always be one of my favorite horror films made. But, as sequels go, this has to be possibly my favorite in the genre. His look and the way he was acted by Dick Warlock, to me was too awesome. I do agree with some of the flaws, but it’s still so great! (Being H2 Myers on Halloween is always fun!)
Good review Cody but can't fully agree with all your complaints, I agree not seeing Laurie's reaction to finding out Michael was her brother was a missed opportunity but where in the film could you find time to put a scene like that in, it's a tricky area! Saying that Laurie picked a car that would not start is not true Michael went outside and damaged the gas tanks on every car and flattened the tires to make sure no one would leave and some have argued why didn't Laurie head towards town but she had a cracked ankle and she probably ran out of adrenaline so she had to rest and she hid in a car! I do agree character development needed some work and some scenes from the TV version do improve on this and if some of these scenes where put back in the movie it would make the movie stronger!
I thought the character development was just as good as the development as Lauries freinds.
Shes does find out Micheal is her brother!
She figured it out in the novelization
@@MrJohnlennon007 and in the movie also!
I used to really love this one. But, the more I watch it, the more I realize that the pacing of this movie is a little slow. And that scene where they're all at the school and saw that Michael wrote "Samhain" on the wall always bothered me since I was a little kid when I first saw it. Why did Michael even stop by that school in the first place? It just seemed a little out of character. Still a good sequel, but the flaws definitely become more apparent as i watch it more.
The original has an even slower pace
I could be wrong, but the only way it makes sense to me is that he did it sometime before he ran into Tommy at the school. Probably wrong but thats how i justified it. Lol
Geez Cody I don’t know what to say. Highlighting both of my comment on both of your Halloween review. I’m honoured man thank you so much you are like the only youtuber that has actually responded to my comments this much so thank you and keep up with those intros man they are only getting better.
Will do!
So like just to be clear is Halloween II part of the Halloween 2018 continuity? Or is it just the original Halloween.
Just the original
That drowning scene's music came straight to my mind the first time I heard "fuck buttons" from gran turismo
I think his movement was to show how the evil consumed him totally after getting shot at the end of part 1 but thats just me
Kicked back with some cold beer rewatching all these Halloween reviews tonight. Perfect rainy Friday night for a 32 year old dad. Good shit
Basically to me, Halloween 1 is scary but Halloween 2 is creepy
I've watched every single one of ur reviews on your channel, getting in detail and hitting all the points and getting to the point lol I couldn't agree more with every review. I can see how much you have progressed from earlier videos, keep up the great work, None of these other movie reviewers can't compare man.
Thanks a lot man. Trying to stand out.
Love the channel, been here since 10,000 subscribers. So cool to see your channel growing so fast. Congrats on 18, 000 subs
Thanks a lot man
Hahahaha your impersonation of the cop was perfect. It was aaaannnie
Great review Cody keeping the great videos rolling. Thanks for all the hard work for this one and the last one and the rest you have coming out.
There KIND of is a realization scene, to me st least it could be viewed at differently. After Jimmy tells Laurie that it was Michael Myers that was after her she has the flashbacks of Mrs Stroode telling her shes not her mother and of herself visiting Michael in Smiths Grove, then thats when she then goes into shock. I always took that as Laurie realizing Michael was her brother.
I think her going into shock was faking. She knew Michael was there looking for her so she faked being comatose so she could escape when the staff weren’t looking, so Michael wouldn’t find her.
I interpreted it as Laurie knowing of her connection to Michael but was unaware of the fact that Michael is the killer.
19:40 for some reason that cop always made me think of jeff daniels in dumb & dumber while telling the sheriff they found his dead daughter
I love H2. It's my favorite sequel and i watch it right after the first one each time I see the first one.
Who has an edit when both films are put together? I'd like to see it.
It's not entirely true that you could remove the brother/sister reveal scene, that's how Loomis figures out where Michael is. Without it a whole new scene would need to be created to reveal Michael's location.
*I SHOT HIM SIX TIMES!*
The most gangsta scene of HALLOWEEN 2 was when the nurse decided after the party was over that she didn’t wanna take her homegirl home after she told her she would, LMAO...and then she tried to put her off on Eddie Lee who was in Russellville.
Halloween 2 is the absolute best, we all know it's true... So much better than the bad 2018 movie and the original.
My favorite of them all. Straight to the point and on the hunt. Part 1 drags
I've always said that. Not bashing the first movie, but most of it was all buildup to the ending. In the 2nd movie, we don't need all that because we have a sense of who Michael is and what he can do. Now it's just Michael doing his thing. He adds 10 kills to his list. It added more meaning to "the night he came home"
Josh I watched the 4K blu Ray last week and it just felt so slow the movie. I don’t feel the same as I do when I was a kid. Part 2 is very good because Michael is not giving up and determined to get Laurie. Come on the scene where she gets into the car and hides....that’s so classic and suspenseful and many movies stoled that scene since
@@johnny6610 very true. And how they say Michael moved all robotic, I thought that upped the creepy factor. And in the first movie, Michael wasn't killing random people for no apparent reason, he had a specific target even then. I mean he was watching Laurie the whole day, at her school, the bushes, through her window. Killing for no reason at all is more psychotic than pure evil. Evil does have motivation
I definetly agree. Although I personally dont think Part 1 drags.
@@johnny6610 I still like the first film better because the hospital setting in H2 does not make much logical sense. NO hospital in America is ever that understaffed and dark and gloomy, hospitals have generators to keep the lights and medical equipment functioning if a power outage happens. Even late at night there are dozens of staff around, not just 8 staff total! So unrealistic.
The quiet suburban neighborhood in H1 made more sense.
My favorite Halloween especially working at a hospital it’s very realistic and at work I always feel like I’m gonna see Michael come out of the dark after me down the hallway
That is why I don't really like Halloween 2, as Michael Myers went for a stalker and the movie had tension to a complete maniac with no tension and all in the same night. Now Halloween 2018, I don't have a problem with Micheal Myers being a maniac, as it 40 years later. If Halloween 2 picked up a few weeks after the original, that would have worked, as it would have been a few weeks later and not on the same night.
I’m watching the Halloween series for the first time with you, so loving these reviews as a follow up and agree with you on most things!! I agree with lack of character development in this and lack of Laurie. But my biggest issue was the way Laurie acted as a final girl. Jamie Lee Curtis has a status as THE Final Girl. And while I loved her last quarter in the first movie and think that status comes from the first movie being the trendsetter for slasher movies, I’m still yet to see her really FIGHT as a final girl. She spent the majority of this movie out of the picture and then when she was confronting him she was crying/screaming/running away instead of actually doing what we all love and root for - acting like a tough a** heroine. I am an avid Scream fan, so maybe I just have high expectations of a final girl due to Sidney Prescott being so kickass in the series. But I really hope Laurie steps up for the sequels as at the moment that’s the main thing that has let me down coming into this franchise with new eyes and high hopes.
Side note - don’t have much of an opinion about the bro/sis storyline yet so slightly interested to see where it goes, but agree it could have been taken out of this as I loved the lack of motive in the first.
Love his mask in this one and when he bleeds out his eyes so awesome
I never was a fan of the family connection. I think someone killing people with no motives no reason is more terrifying than someone who has a motive to kill you.
My favorite score by far. The electric part is just too good.
I love the brother and sister angle. I love when there a serial killer has a motive it makes the character more scarier and intimidating.
Never bought the family connection. Its really easy not to care about it since was made poorly. I still prefer this one over the 2018 version
I would love the score lifted from the first film and inserted into this one, just so when you watch h1 and h2 back to back they blend.... and yes I will watched both back to back even if halloween 2018 retcons it....
Wow ur actually doing it, about a year ago u told me u were gonna do it during October 2018 thank u so much!
Thanks for watching
The problem with the “motivation” is he is focused on Laurie from the beginning. I personally need a reason why he chooses her to focus his stalking and killing on.
I Just realised something. You know how we never get to see Laurie actually find out that she's his sister. Well, maybe we do and we Just didn't know it.. Remember that weird dream sequence where she remembers her adoptive mother saying: "I'm not your mother." And young Michael in the hospital. And that all comes after she's told by Jimmy that Michael is the one who attacked her and ponders why he targeted her.
Well it might be that the dream sequence was a visual way of showing that she's figuring it out by herself. She never gets it variated and confirmed by anyone but she's sort of figured it out.
You could still argue it's not done very well and we still never get a real reaction from her.
But I *think* that's what the scene is about. I think the idea is that she worked it out on her own. And when someone does eventually confirm it to her verbally, she won't be surprised.
When you consider the kind of thought processes.. She knows she's adopted but her parents won't tell her anything about where she came from or about her biological parents.
She finds it weird.
Then she finds out that the guy who Just attacked her and keeps coming after her, is the kid who killed his sister.
Yeah it's far fetched and would make more sense if she had a little more to go on, in order to figure it out.
But that's my take on it.
I loved this sequel🤘👌👍🖤
I actually enjoyed this film more than I thought that I would. Since it was so simple I didn't think that I would like it as much as I did, but it worked for me somehow. I think the original Halloween was better but Halloween 2 was okay. I agree, usually I'm okay at Hospitals at night but this felt creepy. I was thinking "where is the staff?" Not that the staff would make a difference. Michael Myers is huge and has no sense of humor.
I didn't know you was doing the Halloween movies great review Man
Not sure why, but your found footage interview intros to these reviews make me think of Marble Hornets.
Great stuff!!! This one's the best in my opinion of the sequels following the original, In addition to the Halloween films, there are boatloads of other slasher films from the 80's that'd be great for you to watch and review like "The Prowler", "The Burning", "Terror Train", "Sleepaway Camp"(very Friday the 13th like), "My Bloody Valentine"!!!
*update: The Return of Michael Myers is my other favorite sequel besides this and Kills
My favorite in the franchise. Creepy AF. From the beefed up score, to the hospital setting, to Dick Warlocks portrayal of the Shape. Love it.
Great review! Although Halloween II technically also took place in 1978 as well as the original despite being filmed in '81 so in the intro you should have said "back in 1978" xD
The sibling element gives Michael a reason to even target Laurie lol. If not for that element, why would he target a random babysitter? Gives him a reason to chase her down at the hospital.
that shirt is so dope, where did you get it?
Halloween is my second favorite horror movie of all time (Jaws). Second one was good my issues were a waste of Donald Pleasence and Jamie Lee Curtis. Dr. Loomis was chasing ghosts n finally shows at the hospital with 5 minutes left in the movie. The turn Laurie Strode into a scared victim where in one she showed courage. The third is it was so obvious that that wasn't the same Michael other wise i really enjoyed two.
This is my favourite halloween theme. Wow.
Wow, the postman delivers another first class review, superb review of a underrated sequel Cody, did you know this film banned in the UK for a time in the mid 80's during the video nasty cull, why? Because the vhs cover depicted a skull....I kid you not, crazy times man thankfully common sense since prevailed.
I don't recall Halloween 2 being banned at all especially for the cover i knowThe video nasty era very well and it never affected h2.. even the drowning scene was left untouched. I watched that when it first was released on vhs. Well i had watched a pirate vhs first but that also was uncut... the original cover was also the pumpkinskull and was never changed until the dvd releases. Have you any proof this was banned for the cover?
If anyone has made an edit of the two movies combined send it to me that would be awesome.
Just watch them back to back and skip the opening to the sequel you lazy prick.
Don't need to be rude
Drunken Action Figure Unboxing I usually do, but it would be cool if it was one movie.
Drunken Action Figure Unboxing I don’t think he was seriously asking anyone to send it to him. Calm down.
@@drunkenactionfigureunboxin5138 Don't listen to the crybabies. This ain't rocket science. It's not like a passionate fan edit of The Hobbit, it's a matter of pressing the play button after the original ends.
Love this halloween marathon bro, keep it up!
Thanks man
I actually really like how he walks in Halloween II. The way that he walks in this movie goes along with how Loomis says that there is nothing human left in him. It makes him seem more like an unstoppable killing force. Just my opinion
He was to robotic

Cody, my man. How’s the kids? Not too long ago, when you were live streaming Christine, you told us what your own F13 film would be like. Could you please explain it again. I remember something about Tommy being at camp.
Samhain is pronounced "Sowin". Sow (like cow)- in. Why? I have no idea. It just is. It is a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter or the "darker half" of the year.
Great followup to a classic such as Halloween. That being said however...
the inconsistencies and time of events in which things unfold in Halloween II bogs it down. And yeah the sibling angle is rather cheesy, it’s still a good movie that flowed decently well with the first film.
Well time to put down the books again!Loving the intros Cody!
Thank you
Once again another great review by cody, good job man
There's no logic to his attacks either. He kills one person in their home yet moments later he's out in the street allowing people to just walk past him. Wouldn't he want to murder them too? How does he know which hospital Laurie was sent to?
I love the direction that they went in H2
