    Just wanna put it out there, the knife being removed while she’s on the operating table is how it’s treated in real life. If an object(this case the knife) has punctured say an artery or vein, the only thing keeping the Vic from bleeding to death is the knife, so generally it is removed while on the operating table so the surgeons can stop any life threatening bleeding and close up the wound.

Fuckers almost killed him. Inches away from knicking his lung.
      Had to have surgery and they had to cut the knife out. My bf was in such shock when it happened he tried to pull it out and thankfully he couldn't it wouldn't even move one bit. It was so bad. And just nasty having to clean that cut it was massive since they had to cut the knife out.

    That producer's version seems LEAGUES better than the theatrical. While it still isn't the best, it at least makes a lot of sense, and is way better than the other, more dumbed down and silly version. The only thing it lacked was memorable kills, which I guess the theatrical version sort of had, mostly just with the electrical head explosion kill.

      There are aspects of the Producers cut that are better, like the music and the pacing. The only better thing about the theatrical cut was that it did give the impression that Michael was pure evil that was only contained, and not controlled, by the cult, and eventually, he ends them after too much interference on their part.

      The Halloween franchise was never really about memorable kills or gore though. Halloween 1 and 2 are both pretty tame, but made up for it in better suspense and rooting for the characters. Same with 4 and 5 with Jamie Lloyd, though those weren't as good, i did enjoy 4 a lot.

    I don’t understand why they cut Donald’s narrating in the beginning. Tommy is a main character in this film, but Dr. Loomis was a huge part of the franchise up until his death. I’m sorry, but it’s kind of hard for me to feel like the latter movies are as good without Loomis. I know they wouldn’t nor shouldn’t recast to keep him alive, but I loved Dr. Loomis and his dramatic scenes. He was awesome! Rip Donald 💔💯

    15:32 I'm guessing it makes a touch more sense in the movie itself, but I'm really confused as to why Michael finding out that the baby is his would make a difference; Laurie and Jaime being related to him didn't stop him from trying to kill them (or worse in Jaime's case) and he's supposed to be evil incarnate. Plus, why wouldn't he know it was his kid at that point if the cult had that whole gross ritual?

    I absolutely loved this! I'm so happy you're finally launching this new series. I've been keeping my eyes out for such a video since you mentioned wanting to compare the different versions of Alien 3.
    I love the humor and wit of your "Kill Counts" but I really like that you took a more "real talk" approach to this series. For lack of better phrasing, it feels a bit more "intimate" than the usual Kill Count. I don't mean this negatively but there's a clear performance aspect to the Kill Counts, but that's stripped away here and it's just you talking to us, much like with Chelsea and your podcasts.

      6 is my 4th favourite film in the franchise.
      My list:
      1: Halloween 2
      2: Halloween 3
      3: Halloween 1
      4: Halloween 6
      5: Halloween 2018
      6: Halloween 2007
      7: Halloween 4
      8: Halloween H20
      9: Halloween 2 2009
      10: Halloween 5
      11: Halloween Resurrection
      I enjoy them all, even 5 and Resurrection, they have flaws but I'm someone who can easily recognise flaws, accept them and put them aside to enjoy the rest of a film. I can say that 5 is the most boring and Resurrection is the most offensively stupid but still like I said... Don't care too much, I like them, which one I like more can alternate from time to time, same for H4 and H20, sometimes I like one more, others I prefer the other.
      But my favourites being 2 and 3 are set in stone, fucking love those films.

  • @Bobby_Hall

    Here are my pros and cons for both versions of Halloween 6.
    P-Cut pros:
    1. Opening narration with Loomis
    2. More scenes with Loomis.
    3. Since Jamie survives Michael’s attack, that gives Loomis a reason to be at the hospital.
    4. I like the music that was composed for the cult scenes as well as some of the classic Carpenter music.
    5. More scenes with other characters that help develop them more.
    P-Cut cons:
    1. Michael impregnating Jamie.
    2. Wynn telling Loomis that he gave Michael the “gift of Thorn,” which makes Michael less mysterious since Wynn made him murder his sister and has been controlling him ever since.
    3. Michael being stopped by magic rocks. I don’t want there to be extremely obvious supernatural things in the Halloween films. Hint at it, but don’t confirm it.
    4. The entire last act has almost no intensity and feels more like a soap opera than a Halloween movie.
    5. When John Strode gets electrocuted you can see the stuntman’s face and he looks nothing like the actor.
    6. The film relies too heavily on the classic Carpenter music. It’s used way too much and doesn’t know when to fade out.
    7. Michael is basically a sidekick. He should be the main villain.
    8. Thorn tattoo appearing on Loomis’s wrist. This Thorn stuff was getting ridiculous. It’s fine to talk about it a bit but it’s focused on way too much and takes away from the suspense and mysterious nature of Michael Myers.
    9. The nighttime shot of Smith’s Grove is actually a recycled shot from Halloween 4, except in Halloween 4 it was a different building. Seems like a lazy and unprofessional thing to do.
    T-Cut pros:
    1. Michael is brutal. The last act of the film shows how relentless and uncontrollable he is.
    2. The Curse of Thorn seems more like a theory to explain why Michael is evil instead of being an indisputable fact as in the producer’s cut.
    3. I really like the song “And Fools Shine On” as well as a lot of the music composed for the theatrical cut.
    4. The death of John Strode is much more intense. Even if you don’t like the exploding head, all the shots leading up to it are much more effective than they are in the p-cut.
    5. I really like the scene of Jamie walking around in the barn and how she sees Michael lit up by a flash of lightning and then he seems to disappear. Very creepy because it gives Michael a ghost-like quality. In the p-cut she just sits on a bale of hay waiting to get stabbed.
    6. Instead of Wynn saying he gave Michael the Curse of Thorn as he does in the p-cut, in the t-cut he just says that Loomis was the first one to recognize that Michael was “evil. Pure, uncorrupted, ancient.” This keeps Michael’s evil more mysterious because it doesn’t directly tell us that Wynn made him evil.
    7. There’s nothing in the film that suggests Michael is the father of Jamie’s baby. I thought having him be the father was ridiculous and in the t-cut it’s a mystery who the father is (or maybe the baby was the result of a genetic experiment conducted by Wynn).
    T-Cut cons:
    1. Not enough Loomis.
    2. The ending isn’t explained. What is Wynn’s plan? What does he intend to do with Danny and the baby? There needed to be at least a minimum amount of explanation so that we can try to make some sense of it.
    3. Too much crazy “flash cut” editing.
    4. They overdid it with the jump scares and some other sound effects.
    5. I’m not a fan of how Jamie dies in such a brutal, over-the-top way.
    6. Since Jamie dies early on in the film there’s no reason why Loomis hangs out at the hospital all day. Why is he there? Does he just really like the cafeteria food?
    After comparing all the pros and cons of the two cuts I prefer the theatrical cut. My two main reasons are:
    1. It’s more intense
    2. The nature of Michael’s evil is a bit more mysterious.

    • @livefromthemotherland
      @livefromthemotherland 3 года назад +11

      Good breakdown. I agree. There should be a mystery around why Michael does what he does. Explaining it away with him being controlled by another entity makes him more of a side character than the full blown antagonist

    • @EntertainmentFan11
      @EntertainmentFan11 2 года назад +6

      I think one of the cult members impregnated Jamie on Wynn's orders, and Michael just sat and observed. And I honestly like the Rock version of the iconic score. Gives it a bit more variety. And maybe the effect of the curse of Thorn was too much for Loomis when the mark appeared on his wrist that it eventually killed him? I mean, it could have different effects on certain people. Wynn embraced it, but when he passed it on to Loomis, it might've been too powerful for the guy that it killed him. Just a theory, but I think it'd make sense.

    So if Donald Pleasance lived a little longer and they decided to make Halloween 7, does that mean that Dr. Loomis was gonna start slashing people😂 this movie is so confusing.

    Ultimately the Pcut is better but the Tcut has some pros too. The Brother Cane over the end credits was awesome.

    I liked Paul rudds acting to be honest . If I were to get a starting role in a movie I'd love for it to be in a Halloween movie.

    The Producer's Cut is definitely better but there are things from the Tcut they should keep as well (especially the Brother Cane over the end credits). Keep the strobe light hospital massacre, keep the "he's very angry" lady, but overall the Pcut was much better.

    Between having both versions, and watching Cinema Snob's reviews, I have to say, both suck rectal hair. However, the Producer's Cut is a much better film.
    Also: it's his "Great-Nephew". Not to nitpick. Your grandparents' siblings are your Great Aunt/Uncle. Sorry to bring it up again.
