I love how me and Alanda are so different, she’s ready to protect the kid, I’m ready to throw it at Michael🤣😂🤣
Hey, Maybe next you could do Cellular from 2004, thank you.
LMAO same!! Sorry to that kid but it's everyone for themselves 🤣🤣🤣
Love you and Alanda!
I would DIE for a collab reaction from you two Zzzavid/Alanda!
"it" lmfao
I love that Jamie Lee Curtis saw it all the way to the end. It’s bittersweet whether you like the movie or not. She’s a formidable actress and she’s given us so much content in her long career. Give miss ma’am her flowers!!!
There's no such thing as an end to corporate IP. To retain certain rights and licenses new releases must happen every x number of years. Every franchise navigates this.
@@got2bjosh well hopefully it’s the end for her character. They can keep going with it and I’m sure they will but she’s wrapped up her part (multiple times). That is what’s bittersweet about it for me.
It surprises me that she did she hardly liked doing this franchise unfortunately let alone horror movies. Recently Danielle Harris and Nancy from Nightmare on elm street (can’t think of her name) Scout Taylor Compton they were all at a convention with Jamie Lee Curtis. She was pretty rude to all 3 when Danielle Harris went over to JLC and told her she was in the movies and played her daughter she said “I don’t watch those movies I don’t know who you are”
For the other two girls that went to talk to her she just said “uh huh uh huh” kinda disappointed.
@@ipukeglitter435 omg where did you get this information from
@@craigjones1946 on Danielle Harris' and Scout (Laurie from the Rob Zombie's movies) podcast they have. To be fair, she is quite a blunt personality if you watch her interviews and she's also been open and honest with the fact that she hates the horror genre as she's terrified of it.
Corey didn't accidentally kill the kid because he has a temper. He was having a panic attack being locked in the dark.
And the dumbass kid was standing in front of a door that opens outward. He was so caught up in tricking Corey, that he wasn’t paying attention to his surroundings.
You make a lot of sense.
Even without it, I feel like if someone locks you in a room and refuses to open up, you're well within your rights to kick it open.
Yeah he was freaking out and the kid had it coming honestly don't feel bad for him. Don't act like a bitch.
Stupid of kid to stand right behind the door. My guess was maybe the door didn't have a lock and he had to put his weight against but we don't have to make it make sense that kid done gone messed up and paid for it 😅
If you noticed Laurie is wearing the same blue shirt that she wore in the very 1st movie back in 1978. Makes perfect sense, she wore that shirt when she first battled Michael and she's wearing it again for her last battle with him.
💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋😍💄
One thing I do love about this movie is how Haddonfield kinda crumbled with the aftermath of Michael's rampage. It's basically a cesspool now. Almost like Michael's evil/rage/whatever you wanna call spread to the citizens. They're hurting themselves, hurting each other. Just running on darkness. It even spreads to Alyson a little bit. The way she turns on Laurie. Not exactly supernatural occurrences but grief, anger, it can drastically change someone. Love how the movie shows that throughout the story.
This. When u really think about this trilogy it becomes less about Michael the Killer and more about The Shape AS AN IDEA. In the 2018 film we see it all but destroy Laurie's relationships with her family, in Kills we see the town devolve into anarchy and in this one, it's pretty much warped and poisoned Haddonfield into this bleak and ugly community that indirectly fosters Michael would-be successor
"Hurt people hurt people" is honestly the big theme of the trilogy.
This!!! A lot of people missed that message when they watched this movie.
Love story? Maybel? I think Michaels rage is from a broken heart! Wink! (Imsofullofshit!)
@@bklynkat23 They really did. Some have even said "There's no way they would blame Laurie and hate her for what Michael did." There's definitely a way that can happen. People need someone to blame and let their anger out on. So why not one of Michael's targets who survived multiple attacks by him? Happens all the time in real life. Victim blaming.
It's fascinating because Michael's presence is so muted and dim physically, but his impact - on Laurie, on Cornell (lol), and on Haddonfield itself - is SO ever-present. Like, the concept that evil is disease-like, passing from one terrible source (Michael) to everyone impacted by his brutality, doesn't even require that he be this undefeatable juggernaut.
Michael's darkness outlives even Michael.
Im ok with muted. I still wouldnt kick him out of bed!
@@DavidLopez-ff6nf lmao
@@Zombina638 well ?! There is a lot going on under Michael's jump suit !
To Corey’s credit it wasn’t that he had a temper it’s that he was locked in a small dark room. I assume he’s claustrophobic the way he was freaking out. The town definitely did that to him
It's not claustrophobia. It's HADDONFIELD. if a supernatural evil psychopath terrorized your town and survived " I SHOT HIM 6 TIMES" would you want to be locked in a dark room on the night that he struck?
"I didn't hurt your body, but your bank account gonna be *bruised*, baby." - GREATEST. QUOTE. EVER. Love you Alanda!
I just want to say thank you so much for these reactions! I’m low-key am sad because this feels like an end of an era. I know that you are still planning on reacting to the remake Halloween films but all of these were the originals. The OG’s. It was because of the first Halloween, a movie I have loved for the longest, that I found your channel. I wanted to see someone react to the film and you popped up first and I saw that you had a lot of views to the first film so I thought ok it must be good. And your reaction turned it out! At the time you only had the reaction to the first movie so I was able to go with you on this Halloween journey and it’s been beautiful. Because of your Halloween 1978 reaction I discovered a new favorite RUclipsr *hint, hint you* and I got to see genuine (1st time) reactions to some of my favorite horror movies of all time (your sleepaway camp reaction was top tier) so even though we still got two Halloween films left I just want to say thank you for doing the Halloween movies and I can’t wait to continue this reaction journey with you.💜💜💜👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🥰🥰🥰 this is so so lovely, thank you! I've loved watching these films so much; cant believe we only have 2 left
I loved this movie!! Come on it's the Michael Myers universe they introduced a new way to contonue the series and also personally id love a trilogy that explores the curse of thorn. Halloween never ends we will be fine lol
💯💯💯👏👏👏
Objectively best Sleepaway Camp reaction ever
Lmao "That pumpkin just did a reveal to reveal that it was a pumpkin!" 😂
It's the little things that make Alanda the best reactor!
I'm stoked that Evil Dead is on your radar and in the polls 😁
We know she's gunna react epically watching it.
She's the very best!!
I hope she still watches Evil Dead (2013) soon, even if it doesn't win the poll!
The relationship between Michael and Corey very much reminded me of a syndrome called, "Folie a deux." There was a case of this in twin sisters not too long ago who shared a psychotic break and in turn fed each other delusions. Sabine and Ursula I think. One was well adjusted with a family while the other had mental problems. They had been apart for years but when together one duplicated the other's actions almost by instinct. In their case one was more the "receiver" which Corey reminded me of.
Great reaction, I liked this movie.
You just reminded me of Joker 2 when you mentioned folie a deux. 😂
@@TJUC123 I don't understand, which Joker version do you mean?
@@antonfaro9464 that’s the name of the sequel to the 2019 Joker film starring Joaquin Phoenix
@@antonfaro9464 Joker 2. That’s the title of the movie. Joker: Folie a Deux. It’s going to be a Joker and Harley musical movie.
Lady gaga in joker 2 amen
The idea of Micheal dragging the kid killer into the sewer to EAT him is so funny though. 😩😭😭
It feels like you’ve come full circle in your horror journey going from the original to Ends! Congrats on two years 🎉
🥰🥰🥰
As a lifelong fan of the Halloween series, I personally loved this film. It’s the first in any continuity of the series that I was able to see in theaters because everything lined up for me and I went opening night. I’ve watched it twice more and then watched several reactions as well.
As to why I love this film, I think a lot of my reasoning stacks up to being a final girl fan. I love this series, and I love horror, but Laurie Strode has always been the ultimate Final Girl for me, so her original story arc that ended in Resurrection was so inconceivable to me that I knew she deserved better. Final girls survive, and I knew Laurie had more in her fight than to copycat Resurrection. A lot of people who didn’t enjoy this film are more on the Myers side of the fandom which is perfectly fine - if you’re a Laurie fan, you’ll love it, and if you’re a Michael fan, you’ll more than likely hate it. I love Michael, but I love Laurie more. One thing people have not paid much attention to though and is worth noting is that in the DGG continuity (18-Kills-Ends) Michael is a man, not a dark source of evil. It tinkers with that idea thematically and Laurie says as much because it is what was reiterated often while Loomis was still alive and encapsulates her experience in 78 perfectly…
However, in this film with the time jump, Myers is no longer the escaped patient he was in 18 and Kills, no longer the man who was provided a constant source of food and shelter for 40 years. He’s become a hermit, hiding away and keeping a low-profile much as any serial killer has done in the past, and only kills when he has the opportunity to do so (as evidenced by the homeless man’s comments to Corey and the missing posters around the town). He’s grown weak from not being a patient of the state, having to fend for himself for food, shelter, etc. and after having used what was probably all of his might combined with adrenaline from his injuries in Kills to finish the townsfolk at the end, he then had to suffer in the sewer pipes while his body took its time to heal, very irregularly as well I’m sure, which adds to his weakness and inability to do much. His age has caught up with him, so Corey helps Michael to regain some of that fighting strength he’s lost in hiding and because he shares his darkness with Corey, Corey accepts that invite which in a sense makes Michael stronger again because he has help to get back up on his feet and do what he knows how to do again, ultimately killing Corey when Corey forgets he isn’t Michael. I thought it was brilliantly thought out, but I would’ve stayed for another 30-45 minutes for a more fleshed out ending with more fighting and violence. I loved it, but a stronger fight scene would have definitely sealed the deal for me. Still one of my new favorites.
Finally someone who gets it!!! Everyone was like oh my God they made Michael so weak. And I just had to keep reminding them like yo dude was in prison for 40 years getting fed. Then these last four years he's just been scavenging so of course he's going to be weak especially after the beatdown he got in the last one
I love Lory and would always choose Lory above Michael and I still hated this movie. Idc that Michael was weak, it wouldn't be the first time he was in the beginning and then came back to strength and makes sense.
Th movie is just not Halloween, plain and simple. Some might enjoy the difference and for others like me it's disrespect to the whole franchise. There is a reason why the trailer showed us none of that Corey BS and basically just used the only good scene (the final fight) to get people to come to the cinemas. It promised us Lory AND Michael and not just for 5 min. Aside from the fact that I really don't need a new protagonist in the wrap up film if we've never seen him before that. Lory often times was also not the character from the other movie. Sorry but pulling the knive out with literally no reason and then her just crying as the grand daughter walks in is just not the woman that appaently trained for decades to kill and protect herself from a killer.
Aside from all that, it seriously feels like not a Horror Film at all. In the first 50 min after the Opening scene NOTHING happens... so I respectfully disagree.
What was stupid about the movie was the time jump. The second killer. And his send off. The rom-com feeling.
The time jump was unnecessary, it should have all carried on straight after Kills. End the series that final night.
I get what you’re saying and yes it makes sense, people aren’t upset with that, they’re upset because the character of Michael was ruined. He wasn’t Michael. And they had some random dude wearing his mask killing people. Even the kills were bad and rehashed things. It was all unnecessary, long, boring. It’s definitely the worst of all Halloweens (apart from Zombie)
Halloween 2018 was a masterpiece and they ruined that with this one. Michael deserved a better send off
@@ItaliaPonticorvo I appreciated the time jump. If you remember in Kills, Lori was so weak she couldn't even leave the hospital. If this movie was to just continue on that same night then even more would have been disappointing
@@dakota7314you can disagree all you want, I just stated why I liked it. This was a very different timeline and calling this film “disrespectful to the franchise” is a cheap blow when films like Resurrection and Curse have been around far longer and are much worse and more generic to the slasher genre than they are to the legacy of Michael. Laurie was exactly the character from the other movie - except she’s accepted that she’s a victim, and has gone through much needed therapy to get on with a happier existence. It’s realistic. I’ve seen several hundred horror films, it most definitely feels like one. Just because it has a slow start doesn’t mean it isn’t or doesn’t feel like a horror film. There are a plethora of sub genres under horror, and many rely on slow starts to build tension or develop a storyline.
As a Halloween superfan, I appreciated you watching this so much because you had ZERO expectations, you could enjoy it for better or worse for whatever it was. Too often in horror we set up what we want or don't want before we even digest what we've seen. This was great and I hope you get to watch The Exorcist and A Nightmare on Elm Street sometime. Cheers sis.
Oh I watched the Exorcist here last year and it sent me!!!!!!
And thank you so much I completely agree that it’s easier to enjoy storytelling if we don’t project our own desires/ to many expectations of the work. It can be really easy to be disappointed if we have a sort of fan fiction mindset upon entering the experience
I completely agree that going in with no expectations is the way to go. I really try to go into all movies with no expectations and to take the story for what it is. It really helps me to enjoy movies tbh, I’m almost never disappointed.
the exorcist is to demonish for me
OK they need to hire this girl to do reactions on DVDs and commentaries she’s the best one on RUclips
I'm still out here having a horrible time at work, but coming home to watch Alanda's reactions makes everything much better, always.
Alanda keeping her foot on our necks with these reactions, I live 😩🙌🏾
😘
All of the awesome nods to the original film are amazing! Fun fact: the opening credits were blue just like Halloween 3 Season of the Witch because it's a totally different kind of movie. I thought it was a fantastic nod for fans that knew what they were getting into! I absolutely loved this movie! Much like the original in terms of a slow burn. When it comes to Allyson, I think it was the fact that she trauma bonded with Corey so quickly, that she was blinded by that. Trauma bonding is insanely interesting in that regard. When Corey said, “if I can’t have her, no one will”, I took that as, if Corey couldn’t have her, no one would because of how they view her. But Corey saw her for who she really was.
ALSO!! Michael was actually in Ends one minute longer than he was in the original.
The film would've made a great tie in, with a potential H3 remake, if they took the last shot of the mask in Laurie's office, and zoomed in on it showing the Silver Shamrock logo. It would've tied EVERYTHING together in a very meta satisfying way. Also opening it up for other movies within John Carpenter's original anthology idea.
I said the exact same thing about it being like the orginal in terms of pacing, as well as feeling the most down to earth and grounded of all the sequels. This really made Haddonfield feel like a real place. I liked that it was very character driven. The opening with the Halloween 3 credits along with the score and the image of the pumpkin gave me goosebumps. PS: Did you notice the rendition of "Don't Fear The Reaper" playing in the background of the grocery store scene?
I'd stay away from Reddit with your opinions if I was you
Nah, you are reading into it way to much tbh, the cheesy, cliché If I can't have her no one will was said out of spite, not cuz he understood her...
Ummm... I think you're really reaching to make sense of something that makes no sense at all. Corey says that corny ass line before offing himself. Which means that now literally anybody BUT him can have her. Like... she could literally go get pipe from any other guy she chooses, LOL! God, this movie was full of such contrived and lazy writing.
First of all, Happy Channel-versary!!
As for this movie, after thinking about it, I LOVED this movie. The exploration of how evil can change a town and in turn how that town can make an innocent person turn to evil was perfectly done for me. I loved the final showdown between Michael and Laurie. It all worked for me.
What a perfect movie to react for the anniversary!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Happy 2 years and hopefully many many more! 🥰
Thank you love 🥰
I love that Laurie finally gets her peace I wish there was more actual Michael
I love that you and Zzavid appreciate this movie. I loved it and I think Laurie deserved the happy ending
yes I like the idea of her going to Japan with Frank, In fact I THINK that is why the last shot there is nobody home. She's in Japan
I don't hate it at all. It was a good story with a good premise. The issue was, as you said, they used it to close the book on this version of Michael Myers instead of making it its own thing, or the MIDDLE of the trilogy instead of the end. I'm also, call me crazy, a little sad that we're not gonna be seeing this version of Michael annually killing folk on Halloween. But I'm glad the Strode girls finally got some closure. I also have to say, you're my favorite reactor to a LOT of movies. Your commentary is killer and your sense of humanity is inspiring. :) Keep being you!
I really felt Allison (Though it could've been written better). She always had a soft spot for Laurie and defended her against all her mom's sentiments but then as soon as Laurie's consistently in her life all her friends, boyfriend and parents die. For someone as young as Allison with such fresh trauma it makes sense she'd resent Laurie. She's basically in the same position Laurie is in after Halloween 1 ( if not worse) & she hasn't been able to heal because she's stuck in Haddonfield and everyone looks at her and Laurie as if they're cursed. Her anger is misdirected but thats kinda the theme of this movie is with Michael gone everyone has to find a new boogeyman to blame.
I also saw Allison through the prism that sometimes people who have been hurt subconsiously gravatate towards people who are messed up. I got the feeling the cop she dated wasn't all that healthy. He seemed like a controlling freak who probably abused his power. After him she goes for the "damaged" kid who everybody thinks of as messed up. Does she want to fix him? Maybe, but I think part of her wanted to live inside the messed up world he was living in. I think she wanted to SHARE the alienation from the townfolk with someone.
Notification squad WYA
✋
I clicked on it so fast.
Right here
Been waiting for 2 weeks 💜❤️💜❤️
✋🏽
your reaction to laurie’s fake out death was exactly how i reacted, i was so worried that she was actually going to die in that scene!! honestly it was a good movie but for the “last” halloween it had way too little of Michael and Laurie, i wish they had their fight/chase scene longer like they did in the 2018 movie. can’t wait for the next reaction!!:D
I was so worried at that scene as well.😲 Totally agree about wanting a longer chase & fight scene. I was so hoping for a massive long chase & fight scene with Michael vs. Laurie, Lindsey and Allyson at the end throughout the whole house with all three women surviving. I think it would have been a very powerful ending for the three of them considering how Michael impacted each of their lives.
definitely they deserved more screen time!
@@oldhollywoodfan8009 that would have been so cool!!!
It made zero sense to call the police to report a suicide just to trick Corey.
@@TheJokesterSCR But it got the police to go there. That was pretty clever.
i loved the movie.
I liked the idea that since Michael was dying, he tried to train a successor
and Corey double-crossing him was inevitable
I think what alot of folks are having a hard time with is Michael's screentime and death.
I didnt have that issue going in because he's only in the original for 9:30 and he's in this one for 11 mins,
plus they hinted at his death and how he would die in 2018.
The thing with Corey is there's nowhere else to put him in the story and develop him,
seeing as the last two films are a two day event.
Also, Allyson is dealing with her grief over Ray, thats why she was dating the older cop
and she was drawn to Corey since she heard his story in 2019 long before she meets him.
Last, The entire town blames Laurie partially for the 2018 massacre, including Laurie.
She says it at the end of KIlls to Hawkins in the hospital. Even Karen blamed her in Kills
Thats why she doesnt argue with people when they say it, she feels guilty herself
The problem with this movie is Corey. This is the end to a trilogy revolving around Laurie and Michael, and most of it was spent on some random love story that spanned 6 days and backtracked Allison's character development back to her 2018 self, when she thought her grandmother was crazy.
Laurie Strode would not be sitting around writing a book and baking pies while Michael Myers is out there, hiding, especially not after he killed her daughter, Tommy, and a whole mob of people. This film was just completely detached from everything else developed in the trilogy, making them seem like idiots and completely unbelievable, like Laurie and Allison not making a single comment on how Corey has Michael's mask, after he's been missing for 4 years?
Or even their calm reactions to Michael being in their house after 4 years, Laurie gets up and hides like it was still the same night in 2018, and Allison just runs in out of nowhere without context and no explanatioin for how she knows Michael is attacking Laurie, and slaps his hand down, and says nothing about the fact that her mother's killer is here after so long.
No one in their right minds would blame Laurie, especially since there should've been a statement made by the police on the matter after the fact, explaining what happened. If this was realistic, Sartain's motivation to bring Laurie and Michael together would've been revealed, Michael's lack of interest her also, and his fixation on his old home, leading to many of the deaths, which is why it's now demolished.
@@NimbusTM You clearly don't understand this trilogy.
Its about Haddonfield and the Boogeyman,
not merely Laurie and Michael.
The story isn't random either, Allyson's been fixated on Corey since 2019 when she heard his story and Allyson didn't revert either. She disbelieves her about COREY, has nothing to do with her experience with Michael. You're grasping at straws.
Laurie Strode would absolutely be baking,etc. instead of obsessing over Michael. 1- it's been 4 years, it's not the next day and 2- she learned in Kills that Michael wasn't after her. She has guilt abouts the 2018 massacre, blaming herself like everyone else including Allyson does
(Same as Kared did in Kills) but she does NOT believe anymore Michael's after her.
The movie's not detached from the other two, you're just simple minded obviously.
Allyson and Laurie aren't sitting around having a conversation about the mask, they're in the moment in shock, are you slow or something? Middle of a war and you want them to have a discussion?🤣
What you expected Laurie to do, scream like an idiot when she realized Michael was there? Lol, she did what she's supposed to do as one of the Shapes (yes, if you paid attention, Laurie became a shape after 78, which is why SHE also moves like Michael, not just Corey. I also can tell you never lost a child, talking so ignorantly. I have and although you never get over it, you don't stay a fuckin mess years later, as if it just happened.
Laurie getting up to hide, says nothing about the time and place, you're just trying to make up shit to complain about.
Especially odd for someone who started off saying your issue is Corey, then rattling off all that other B.S.
Allyson didn't run back out of nowhere either, she knew something was wrong when Hawkins told her about the suicide call. It's obvious she was in denial about Corey, but you trying to play make believe as if that's not clear in the movie🤭🤭
Allyson broke his arm, "slapped his hand"?
What movie did you watch? You can't even get the details straight but you trying to criticize? Weird as hell.
You wanted Allyson to start having a conversation in the middle of killing Michael? Stupid as hell. What is with this, "but they didn't talk about it" stuff you're on? It makes no sense.
Yeah, nobody IN THEIR RIGHT MIND would blame Laurie and that's the point, they including Laurie ARENT IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS 🙄
If this was realistic, this would still happen.
We see people falsely accuse others everyday. We had ALL evidence in the world Trump wasn't cheated out of office, yet we still had a January 6 insurrection didn't we? Hmmmmmmm
Last, Sartain motivation was revealed so apparently you missed that in 2018 and Kills as well. Michael's lack of interest was revealed to Laurie in Kills, this is WHY she isn't a doomsday prepper anymore.
You literally have zero clue what you're talking about here..
@@millyoneyedeaz1350 While I don't agree with everything the other person said, why do you have to be mean with comments like: are you slow?
I could also be like how does it make sense that Laurie is obsessed with Michael coming back for 40 years after the incident while she can keep track of him being in the institution compared to the 4 years where he's loose and she has no idea where he is.
Now to me I understand why she'd want to move on and bake pies but it's okay if others believe otherwise.
Oh and to rock your boat, I did think there were quite a few inconsistences in the story/characters and feel this movie was a bad ending to the franchise.
Man... you guys. 😂😂😂 micheal isn't fucking STAB MAN AND ROBIN... he doesn't care to train someone... there is no FEELING or emotion in there. Nor should he have been weak. Although I respect it's bold decision... it just didn't stick the landing like the last of us 2... luckily they didn't have Cory kill micheal 15 minutes in
@@dakota7314 "I could also be like how does it make sense that Laurie is obsessed with Michael coming back for 40 years after the incident while she can keep track of him being in the institution compared to the 4 years where he's loose and she has no idea where he is. "
Questions like this, is why i ask if people are slow.
If you take that as being mean, i dont know what to tell you,
these questions aren't thought out well at all.
You're focused on the wrong thing (length of time)
when the issue is information....
She was obsessed for 40 years because she believed in something that wasn't true.
Asking this question, implies you dont seem to register this fact.
They didnt just jump from her believing he was going to come after her, to her being different 4 years later.
She found out the same night he escaped in 2018, it wasnt about her.
thats LIFE CHANGING INFORMATION.
What doesnt make sense is Laurie learning the truth in 2018
but in 2022 living s if she never learned it.
"Now to me I understand why she'd want to move on and bake pies but it's okay if others believe otherwise."
No, its not and thats the problem i have with people like yourself, you cant just believe one thing
when the story clearly states and shows the opposite. its okay to not like it, thats about it.
So no, the only boat you rocked was your own.
Its already obvious you dont know an inconsistency when you see one,
or you would recognize the huge one in your misunderstanding of Laurie;s arc
I didn’t hate this movie at all. The Corey story line I loved cause I was honestly torn with that man. He was a monster but the way he was treated made him a monster. He was very interesting and made me very torn. He was a great example of how Michael’s evil has poisoned the town.
The fact that Michael was broken and hiding made so much sense after the brutal beating he got at the end of Halloween Kills. It showed that whilst he may not feel pain he was just in fact, human. I cried my eyes out finally watching Laurie end him.
I agree...A part of me felt genuinely bad for Corey. But at the same time...a monster that's been created is still a monster that needs to be stopped.
@Herstory not at all. Serial killers deserve to go down. Corey deserved to go down. But it doesn’t change the fact that what led him to that point was heartbreaking
I don't think the Corey storyline is bad, the problem is having the last Halloween film ever (potentially) have almost no Michael in it, also introducing a character in the final movie of a trilogy makes NO SENSE, at least introduce him in kills or something
Also Allison's backwards development made no sense and ruined her character for me
I’m so glad you got into horror. I live for you throwing out them horror references from past movies you’ve seen.
this channel has genuinely brought me so much joy. as a horror fan and just a movie fan, it really feels like I have a friend to enjoy in these things with. thank you for these reactions and happy 2 years! ❤
Thank YOU 🥰🥰🥰
We said the same thing when Laurie showed up! Yaaasss new wig! 🤣👑
THE END IS FINALLY HERE !?! you should have Orphan (2009) & Orphan: First Kill (2022) next on your radar
I have found your channel very recently and I’ve binged a vast majority of your horror videos and I’m in love with the vibes, laugh, and Antics that are pulled here. I’m so happy to be a supporter and a viewer of Alanda and her amazing journey!!
I loved this movie, just Allyson and Corey together should’ve been friends instead of love, also yeah remember how in Kills Micheal looks at his reflection? He saw himself in Corey’s eyes which is really cool! Also notice Corey (same can be said about Myers) gets stronger throughout the film, even taking bullets and a knife in the neck at the end, most likely because Micheal opened the gates for his manufactured evil, but it’s cool actually having to think about a deeper meaning in a Myers movie for a change Lol 😅
Even if that deeper meaning is very contrived and poorly explained? Not to mention, it's just plain stupid. Michael and Corey were clearly polar opposites. None of this made any sense and was extremely lazy writing.
@@TheJokesterSCR"Lazy writing", the magic word for those who neither understood the film nor enjoyed it
@@ZoarTwili [Edited] Not true. Just because someone disagrees with you and doesn't like the movie, thinking the writing was lazy, doesn't mean they didn't Understand or enjoy it. This is what makes fans seem intolerant and "toxic". And it's unnecessary.
As I've written in other comment sections, I didn't hate it, but I was disappointed in it. That doesn't mean I don't understand it, nor does it mean I don't enjoy watching it
I'm in the minority (it seems) of loving this movie.
I can't see myself rewatching it a lot because it's so emotionally heavy. I cry like a river by the end. I know it's Laurie's happy ending (finally) but it was still so bittersweet. 😭😭😭
I loved it too. Ignore the fanboy haters ...
I have a suspicion that in time.. This will earn a cult following and get redeemed(like Halloween III has in the Fandom)
❤️🔪The Fact You and ZZZavid referenced "Out of Darkness" By Sidney Prescott in Laurie's opening speech is the reason you're my TOP reaction videos i watch 🔪❤️
I cried at the end ! End of an era & so happy she survived.
Movie #2 should be Trick ‘r Treat, if you haven’t seen it yet! It’s a legit modern Halloween masterpiece. Celebrates the holiday in all its forms in a truly exceptionally creepy, funny, weird, endlessly rewatchable anthology. And it’s only 82 minutes long!
Perfect film to watch on Halloween 🎃.
Bit late but I actually loved this movie. This timeline from the beginning made it clear Michael was just a man with a strong willpower who wanted to go home. He's the only version that has scared and aged(neck wound, burned face and shit cheek etc). The idea here was how bad it is to make an urban legend out of a tragedy. Laurie was stalked but he didn't have a reason for doing it, after Loomis showed he he retreated, went home but again hot hindered. I like the idea of the town becoming the evil and when Michaels gone they needed someone else to fuel the fire. Michaels home being destroyed after kills plus the extreme beating he was served sent him into hiding. He's 65 in this film, Laurie is 61, they're both tired but only one had ample time to heal while the other was left eating raw human flesh in a sewer. I think he let Corrie live simply cause he was too weak.
I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say how proud I am to see this full circle moment. Thinking of your horror journey and how much fun we have all had with you is truly special. Keep being such a beautiful light in this world and I can't wait to see where this journey will continue to take us. Sending all the hugs and love to you, our Horror Queen! 😁🤗❤
Girl your attitude and everything just makes me so happy ! The energy that you give off alone is just ugh amazing !! Love you girl 💕💕
As a LONGTIME fan of the franchise, the original being my all-time favorite film, I really love Ends. It does something brave and interesting, even if it wasn't exactly the right time to do it. But I think 2018 ended the Michael/Laurie saga near-perfectly (after H20), so I was much more interested in Corey's arc and his relationship with Allyson! I would've LOVED if they'd set up Corey as the new Michael and Allyson the new Laurie.
You mean the relationship that was overly forced? Allyson creamed her panties upon her first gaze at him. She's a 10 and he's a solid 3 or 4 at best, so it couldn't be that she was just after some man-meat. All she knew about the guy is that he accidentally killed a child. And the fact that Allyson just so happens to fall in love with the "new Michael Myers" of ALL people... give me a break. This movie was stupid from start to finish.
@@TheJokesterSCR Judging by your profile pic, you're a solid 2, so good luck with that.
I had a different POV I was releaved Corey DIDN'T become new Michael, I felt Laurie had earned to be the one to end this nightmare, If she had killed Michael and lived or died doing it and there had been another Michael it would have bothered me because of the sheer injustice of it, I hated the bust a Rhymes movie because Laurie gets killed and Michael goes onl To each thier own however,
Congratulations on two years. I loved this movie. I saw it in the theaters. I think the issue with this movie is it separated the horror fans/ movie fans from the Michael Meyers fans. If you view these movies back to back, Michael is in a huge chunk of this new trilogy, but this whole trilogy makes him what he was always meant to be from the beginning. He was always meant to simply be a force. The sequels made him a horror icon like Jason and Freddy. If you look at the original movies in these franchises, the villains barely had any screen time. Most people think Freddy was his scariest in the first film where he was only on screen for a total of 10 to 17 minutes. These movies were meant to show the effects of Michael on the town and the people. Ends really emphasized that and I was completely okay with watching Corey’s decent into madness. Michael will be back in another reboot, but as far as this Quadrilogy is concerned, I was happy with the end result.
I LOVE this movie. I know it’s way different but that’s part of why I love it so much. It felt fresh. I think Corey is a fascinating character and I love the dynamic with him and Allyson and him and Laurie. I’m so glad that Laurie got a happy ending. And I’m so glad to have your reaction already! ❤
Always love seeing Queen Alanda every week ❤️
Happy 2 year anniversary! Thank you for existing. Your horror movie reactions truly make my week! Here’s to many more years
Going through this franchise with you has been such a blessing. It really feels like I get to watch my favorite movies with a beautiful best friend!!! Love you Alanda ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Happy anniversary my queen! I can’t even describe how much your videos have brought joy to my life every week❤️
I RAN to this ! I can’t miss your reactions 😭🤍
Oh my gosh, thank you so much for your anger at granddaughter!! I have listened to so many people review this movie negatively and nobody seems mad at her! She went from the voice of reason to bat crap crazy and hateful!!
Michael may not have been *physically* present in most of the movie, but his influence was very much present and felt in every character, especially Corey. It's like the concept of Michael alone is enough to continue his legacy of violence and killing. Even when he's not physically there he's still "killing" the people of the town mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
An end of legends, both killer and survivor. It was nice going on this journey with you since prior to your reactions, Halloween was a series I never watched before. Your reactions had me watching all the movies (yes, even Resurrection) so I could guess how you would react to them. It’s been a real treat.
Honestly, for what they’re worth, the Rob Zombie Halloween films are actually kinda decent. Though, I might be slightly based since I do like his movies. Those movies have undoubtedly the biggest and scariest Michael in all the movies.
I gotta say, this movie broke my heart, I love this franchise and I expected for them to take risks and was prepared for em, i just think they missed the mark. However, I must say the fact that you Alanda found any enjoyment out of it makes me feel better and in time I'm sure I'll come around. Your commentary is always on point, fresh and open-minded. You're the goat. Thanks.
They created the illusion of risk and then decided to waste time until Michael arrived at Laurie’s house. They told Corey’s story, his killing spree was super short and only impacted the brand new characters, and then he’s gone from the movie lol.
This one was so bad I couldn't even finish it Michael Myers makes a cameo in his own movie? Not a true Halloween movie imo very disappointed
@@MrOffroadjunkie You must hate the third movie then.
@@willfanofmanyii3751 yes also garbage but atleast that one still has nostalgia going for it I guess still pissed it exist
Rohan Campbell (corey) is the best new actor to emerge from this new timeline. He's an incredible actor. He ate up the screen and his transformation from good to evil is incredibly effective.
He did that! He needs to play The Flash or Reverse Flash on the big screen!
Thank you Alanda for all your beautiful reactions ❤ ❤ ❤ . You provide so much love and enjoyment to us, you’re truly a gem to this world
Your reaction made me love this movie even more. I don’t think it’s perfect, but I really like it. They nailed Laurie. She was happy and living her life. She’s getting that cheesy love story and that’s all I wanted for my girl.
Happy RUclips Anniversary! To me, the introduction to Corey was a way to ask, "Is a person born evil or are they created by society and the environment around them?" I think that Corey was created by society and the environment around him, and Michael was created by birth.
I love this entire Halloween journey. Your reactions of Halloween movies is the best. I can't wait for the remakes
After watching the movie the first time, I actually got quite cranky cause I almost felt lied to. It had the title Halloween and what I got wasn't really Halloween. The more I've watched it, the more I understand and appreciate what they were trying to do/say... evil doesn't die, it just changes shape. I guess my biggest beef with it, is that it's almost an hour in before we even see Michael and then his role is almost completely absent. No matter what they were trying to say with the film, they can't deny that the audience came to see Michael and Laurie, not Corey and Laurie. There were plenty of times Michael could have been incorporated into scenes without losing the Corey storyline, but they concentrated so much on his character and Michael was almost like an afterthought. It was like they got to the finale and thought "oh that's right, it's Halloween Ends, we better quickly do that I guess".
Plus, it’s a lot better than that Cult of Thorn trilogy.
and nothing could be as bad as the abomination that was resurrection.
I love that you had that reaction at 37:14. That one shot is enough to show us everything that Laurie has lost. It’s quite heartbreaking. I understand this wasn’t the Halloween movie that most people wanted but I thought it was a fantastic character piece, especially coming off the hackneyed writing from the previous two entries. The Corey storyline would’ve made a good stand alone movie but it works even better in a Halloween movie. Also, I think this is Jamie Lee Curtis’ best performance as Laurie since the original. Imo, this is easily the best film in the Blumhouse trilogy.
I honestly I did not expect to see your reaction so soon , but I’m glad to see your reaction and that you enjoyed it.
Also at 33:10 I laughed
When u said “Is that gonna stand?”
( Michael gets up )
Me: “Nope!”
What I like about this movie is that it does something different
Saying that Corey killed the boy isn't completely accurate. It's the same as someone driving down the highway and someone jumping into the road in front of them. Pure accident. Even so, the town still treated him like he was a child killer.
I am caught in between with this movie. I didn't hate it at all, but I also didn't love it.
The last act of the movie is the strongest, though. Laurie & Michael fighting and going at it - two horror icons for the ages, that's what I wanna see. I loved that part a lot. Well, every time either of them were on screen, I had a good time.
Which is why I am conflicted. I was not at all into the romance, Corey bored me a lot and Allyson could have been handled better. So it is a huge bummer that they take up most of the screen time.
But I did admittedly tear up at the end with Laurie and Frank. Idk, it wasn't overwhelming or anything - it was just peace.
And Laurie absolutely deserved that.
I speak Spanish, I want to tell you that you have a fan who follows you from Mexico. Although I can't understand everything you say, I can really perceive your good vibes and that you are a great human being. Happy anniversary, I hope you continue to grow much more.🙏🏼
As for the film, I have mixed feelings, I know that in the future I will be able to value it more, I don't dislike it, that's good. Greetings.❤🔪
I loved this movie. They ended exactly the right way. Laurie and Allyson needed peace and closure. xx
I was extremely disappointed and confused by this movie. The past two films were so connected (obviously it was the same night) and I thought this one was going to be like intense and action packed but it felt like it was so out of nowhere. Bringing in a brand new character that has not existed prior in the trilogy and making Laurie and Michael side characters in what is supposed be their big finale is insane to me. Ending the last film, Michael killed a whole mob of people with Laurie saying he can't be defeated with physical brute force and that each time he kills, he transcends more and becomes stronger (so to me that meant he was in his strongest form) but in this film he's this decrepit old man that can barely move and gets bullied and has his mask stolen by this kid who 30 minutes earlier was getting beat by a high school band geek. Also they had Laurie say "you're just a man" in this film when they've spent so long portraying him as a supernatural being hence the transcending from kills and ability to possess people. It's bizarre.
I also hated how Alyson treated Laurie like she was crazy in this like she wasn't the only one in the previous movies to side with her and have her loved ones killed. It just felt like all of the character development for everyone built in the previous movies was thrown out the window. Like Laurie is just fine and peaceful after her daughter dies and shes not planning for his next return??
Conceptually, I think the movie could have been good but the execution failed. Also if this was like some middle of the line sequel it could have been a cool idea but placing this as the final movie of the franchise makes absolutely no sense to me
Just wanted to say I've only become a recent subscriber, but watching your horror film commentaries has been so refreshing. One of my favorite reaction channels right now, personally. Knowing you didn't always like horror too -- can relate! For a good chunk of the horror movies out there that I've been curious about, but too scared to watch alone, these really tend to help. Congrats on your channel growth, and may you have a blessed rest of the year!
This is the reactor I've been waiting for! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Happy Anniversary Alanda!!!! I haven't been here since the very beginning but I'm happy to be here none the less!!! Sending you lots of love 💕💕💕💕💕
The more I watch it, the more I LOVE the movie. I understand peoples issues but I had so much fun with this onw
Congrats on two years!! I absolutely love your channel. I really liked the movie. It does feel like the end of an era, with this new trilogy now over, but I am glad your channel is still living strong.
Another great reaction, happy 2 year anniversary on RUclips and thanks for these reactions, these movie reactions you do really help brighten up my day. Keep up the great work Alanda 😊.
These Halloween film reactions have been amazing!
The Rob zombie one are bonkers 😅 can’t wait for those!
Yeah, I’m looking forward to those as well..
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 yes! I went to the same highschool as Rob zombie too so he has always been like that celebrity me and my friends could boast became famous. His movies are wild but so well made!
I can't wait to see her review those 2 films either!
@@toddpatrick8254 💕
I hated this movie because it came completely out of left field. The entire time, I was just yelling "WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST TWO MOVIES?!!". They gave us a movie, in which only the last 15 minutes managed to wrap up the previous two films. If they wanted the story to go in this direction, they should have set Corey up in Halloween 2018. Coming to the finale of the trilogy, why in the world would you introduce a new character to be the new main character, when all we want is the original 2 characters and then they barely put them in the movie. If this was it's own standalone movie, I'd probably would have liked it, but as the finale of Halloween 2018 and Halloween Kills...no bueno! Okay, that's my rant. I loved your, reaction. lol
Watching a Halloween marathon with you is on my bucket list! LOL! But for real, thank you for all the time and energy you've put into making these reactions. Can't wait to see your reactions to the remakes of 1 and 2. Appreciate you Queen!
Oh I actually really liked this. I liked that it was a departure from what we were expecting. It's imo like they realized that their wasn't *really* a 2 hour movie they could give us with Michael that would chart new territory or cover new ground that hasn't been covered in the last 2 entries (or the last 40 years) so they were like "hey, what if we did something different?" and I kinda like that. I also feel like this did a better job of exploring how Haddenfield has been impacted by Michael than Halloween Kills did, though I think you nailed it when you said it was interesting ideas with questionable execution. That said I'll always appreciate a film for aiming high and falling short than just looking to give us the same old same old.
Happy Anniversary, Alanda! Your content is wonderful, as are you, and I look forward to every Monday because of it. You bring such joy to this platform and your hard work doesn’t go unappreciated. Thank you for two years, here’s to 20 more? 😬🤞🏻😂❤️ Much love!
For me, it sends mixed messages when in this film where Halloween supposedly Ends, evil is also magically transferable and anyone can become a Michael Myers if bad shit happens to them and then get bullied.
Glad you had a good time watching this! Lots of people are trashing it but I thought it was a pretty cool take how Michaels evil can infect people, or bring it out of people who may be surpressing it inside of themselves. "Evil changing shape," so to speak.
Happy Anniversary Alanda. Absolutely love all of your reactions to all of these great movies. Can't wait for more.
Your videos are always a joy to watch. They always feel genuine and just YOU, compared to many other reactors. Thank you for providing
I first found your channel through your Halloween 1978 reaction, you’ve definitely become a favorite RUclipsr me, got me recommending you to my boyfriend and we both enjoy your content. Sad this franchise is almost over but here’s to many more movies!
I like this movie, separating the ending from the rest. I was actually invested in the Cornell (😂) stuff, I had sympathy for him, up to a point, I thought it was a pretty good next gen story. But this was supposed to be a trilogy conclusion, with Michael as the main villain, and he’s barely in it. But I did love the final confrontation between him and Laurie and the procession!
Take the last 15 minutes and add it to Kills (which is actually my favorite), and you have a solid trilogy that includes the original movie. Retitle the rest as Halloween the New Blood or something like that, and it’s a decent Michael successor movie.
Alanda! You bring so much joy to my life haha you are the best reactor. I am in the minority but Rob Zombie's Halloweens are my faves so I hope you enjoy !
Happy 2 year anniversary Alanda!!! 🎈 🎉🥳
Fun fact: David Gordon Green said that in the script the ending of Halloween Ends was going to be at the Shammock factory where in the middle of making the witch, pumpkin, and skull mask the Michael Myers mask come out. I also heard the book explains much more.
Happy Anniversary Alanda! It's been a blessing getting to watch your reactions these past 2 years. Here's to many more love! 🥂
And there it goes...A horror series for the ages. It's weird that I'm feeling kinda sad but with another commented below me said, I too found you from halloween reactions and you've been MY FAVORITE in the reactor circle ever since. You catch on to things instantly, you're hysterically funny without even trying and just all around amazing person. Thank you for all the content you've given me ♥ Brightened my day every time you upload xD I've even watched videos of yours to movies I've never watched or been interested it xD It's wack!
By the way, I've been meaning to ask: Will you ever be reacting to stuff that isn't horror or horror adjacent? Because I have a movie I absolutely *must* recommend and it's called 'Baby Driver'. If you like car stunts, romance, glorious action to the beat of music, and CRIME! Then it's definitely the movie for you! I've never watched a movie twice but I did with Baby Driver, zero regrets. You don't have to react to it tbh, just a feelsgood movie for you to watch whenever you have the time =D
I loved this movie! I did get spoiled beforehand, but from how others made it seem, Michael wasn't even in the film at all and it was all Corey up until the final confrontation. So while Michael didn't have a majority of the screen time, he still had a lot more than I anticipated and I enjoyed that. I also really enjoyed Corey's actor and think he did a great job and really made you root for him up until he intentionally became a killer. The gore was really good and I think we got some good tension and scares throughout. Jamie Lee Curtis was amazing (as always), but I also want to give major props to Andi Matichak. I think she was outstanding and had a great range of emotions in her performance. My only complaint is that the final show down was too short for how long we've been building up to it. I think if the final fight between Laurie and Michael had been the last 40 - 45 minutes of the movie and not just the last 25 minutes that it would've felt a little more deserved;
happy happy anniversary!! i have loved getting to see your take on movies. ive grabbed the popcorn and a drink with you a few nights. love what you do
I see that Happy Death Day and the Terrifier are head up in competition on your poll and not for nothing they're both entertaining but Terrifier is more whooaaa! But I definitely think you'd love Wrong Turn! Thank you for sharing this awesome, 2 year journey with us! You're the best you Beautiful Queen You! We love you Alanda! Halloween Ends though!!!! I have been a fan of this franchise since I was 6. I can honestly say I love the Halloween Ends closing. It was the perfect tie up for the final battle between "That Strode Girl" and "The Shape"... Laurie Strode and the Boogeyman honored the 44 year greatness of the Night He Came Home... Halloween!
I loved it! We've seen Michael Myers butcher random people movie after movie after movie. I'm happy they tried something different, and it really landed for me. Exploring the idea that Michael Myers can be inside any of us is super intriguing, and I liked that they did it while Laurie was still facing her demons. This movie was totally unexpected, and I think that's why it divided people so much. Everyone just wanted 90 minutes of Laurie vs. Michael, which would've been quite boring. This was an epic ending to a great trilogy!
I think the highlight of this movie was Michael's cameo.
Happy Anniversary! The past 2 years of your reactions have helped brighten my life. You rock!
Happy Anniversary Angel!!!!! I’ve been watching you for a year now and I appreciate your reactions so much. ☺️ Horror is my favorite genre and I feel like I rarely have anyone to talk about these films with. So it’s so nice getting to virtually chill with you every week and see how you feel about these movies! I appreciate you dearly 🎥🖤🎃
TOTALLY made sure I watched Ends over the weekend so I was ready for your video!!! Adore you my queen! Hope you're doing well!!
thank you babe! I'm doin really well, I hope you are too 💛
@@AlandaParker Doing well!! Crazy life as always but pushing through! Having your videos to look forward to every week makes things just a little sweeter. 🥰
It’s been so much fun watching you react to this series so sad it’s over!❤️ have you ever thought of reacting to tv shows?? I think it would be so fun to watch you react to the entire flavor of love/rock of love era of VH1 reality tv!
I’m sad about this, even though this era is wayyy older than me, I feel like even though the Halloween era is ending this era will always be immortal
Congratulations on the 2 year anniversary! Thank you for your videos. They truly have lifted me up during some very difficult times. Much love from Detroit.
