The forest scene when the woman was being chased, the silence in the theaters. All you hear is Michael’s breathing and the leaves crunching after each step. Chillllllsssss
Your comment is exactly why i want theatres to stay alive. You just dont get that experience at home.
you must be like 5 years old if you think that was scary
@@mresef7168 its a valid fear. and they are right. the stalk/chase is one of the key scares with these movies in my opinion
Same experience for me. That scene was so interesting and I feel like they rushed it.
@@mresef7168 the movie was so Ass 😭
the new mask is actually iconic
And i just bought it for $80 for Halloween:)
its my favorite out of all of them
@@Gumorisco11 a good investment
@@hb-yq1kr my jump suit came in yesterday to,:)
@@Gumorisco11 watched the movie yesterday I feel bad for the insane guy that jumped
Big John/Little John was just enough comic relief not to take away from the horror of the film.
Don't forget Lenny "Clahk"... His short appearance was classic Lenny!
i laughed hard about those two 😆
@@__stef__ can't wait for the last halloween movie next year called halloween ends, I think Michael myers might die in the last one

Michael Myers became John wick in this movie
Funny, John Wick became Myers in the last movie, he was almost killed and severely injured, but he still survived. Roles were reversed.
@@BloodyArmourKnight funny Myers became John Wick in his movie
Really? Lol
John wick is fictional character, Mikey is a real factor.
Period
Seeing all the original actors come back to act in the movie is sooo touching 👏🏾👏🏾
Whaaaaat? That was so brilliant
It's unfortunate that Tommy Doyle's og actor went down a drug hole
Right
Fr
Sucks Nick Castle's scene was cut.
This movie straight up delivered. The music had me at the start, it hit the ground running. The kills were INSANELY brutal.

@Dutch Schaefer worst franchise movie hands down Halloween resurrection with busta rhymes karate kicking Michael like hes Bruce lee.
This was actually one of the worst in the series...
Kills were really good. But still it was little diassaopinting.
@@JT1zero5 totally agree !
When the old black lady started screaming, I literally cried. The pain and the fear…you could hear it in her voice. I don’t cry during movies, and I cried during that part. The acting was amazing!
I gotta admit that was pretty rough.
Your comment reminded me of the scene in RZ H2 When the nurse (played by Octavia Spencer) was crying and screaming cause she knew she was going to die.
@@TayTay0812 Yup
🤣🤣
YOU HAVE to see this in theaters. There’s no other way. The firefighter scene is pretty good and shocking
Reminded me of Kane’s entrance from wwe
@@jordanbrabham389 Lol
It isnt a great movie
I AGREE!!
@@tristandashark4634 Shut The Heck Up it's an Amazing Movie.
This is how a movie should be filmed! And not with only green screens!
Agree
It’s freaking scary as heck I am shocked up by it and cannot sleep
Yeah I can see why you would find the connection with green screens used in making films because all mainstream marvel movies utilise this form of filmmaking
Yeah i loved this movie
Halloween Theme - The Shadows ** Premier **....**ruclips.net/video/pdo_s6GM9eI/видео.html..**. Kyle Richards ***************
When he got that lady in the neck with the light tube. That whole sequence was One of the best kills I’ve seen in the entire series.
The stabbing the audience clap after was seriously creative I never would’ve imagine myself seeing that. Classic and iconic kill now and scene, imo. Top three kills in the movie.
I loved it. The dialogue was hokey af at times, but Mikey reclaims his throne in this. Sorry Jason, Myers is the king of all Slashers.
HES BEEN THE KING!
Bruh since when, if Jason and Myers fight, Myers will lose certainly, the Myers director even said that Myers is still a human even tho he has some insane attacks and he resisted
But I love Michael, more than Jason
Michael has always been the king of slashers.
to be honest I kind of want to see a Jason vs. Michael Myers movie that would be so good🤣🤣
I love that Michael is the lead this time .everyone else is peripheral ..as it should be
No, I’ll pass on that. This movie was good because it made sense for the story they’re telling. A movie that focuses on only myers is unwatchable.
This was great we didn’t have to get a bunch of filler of the Strode broads and their bs
@@elliottblair31 without myers, its not Halloween.

It was waaaaaaaay better when laurie was the main character
I like how they really Express that playful side of Michael and the gory side of Michael this was intense and I really loved it just beautiful
Can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this movie... Lots of action, violence, killing and gore... And there were no "cutaways" to leave the violence to your imagination... They went all in on the kills and the aftermath... Also, adding a little humor with Big John/Little John as well as Lenny "Clahk" really helped to bring much needed breaks from the killing, even if those breaks were brief... Also as JLC said in this video, it suggests a different angle and reason for Michael's obsession with the town... It really has you thinking throughout the whole movie.
The movie was epic.
It had plenty of violence and kills
It had the original cast come back
It had scenes from 1978 connecting the dots which was awesome kinda like deleted scenes we never saw.
But being a massive halloween fan I have to say 10/10
I love seeing how much fun the cast has at shooting this movie. This movie is intended to be watched for fun, despite if you hate it or love it.
As time goes by I actually loved this movie. I just looks at it as a filler for the third and final act. Basically what it is. I loved how vicious it was.

A trilogy shouldn’t have a “filler” movie. Each film should contribute significant elements for a well rounded trilogy. This movie was hollow schlock
@@Luke101 agreed
Y’all ain’t never satisfied lol 😂
@@HeyBigBear yup. People love to hate...
Honestly I was really glad to see very little cgi for the kills all the practical effects looks fantastic
It was definitely intense, it has a very different feel that’s hard to describe. I loved it
This Halloween made Michael the greatest Slasher of all time.
I agree I crown him as the king well he's always been the king to me.
@I'm Just Me leave him alone why are you dissing him nobody is perfect. Correcting him is one thing but dissing him is another.
@I'm Just Me it was obviously a mistake the word popped up and clicked it.
I don’t remember seeing that head tilt in the movie and the whole Michael sitting on Judith’s nightstand looking at himself in the mirror!
Head tilt was there and that scene was cut as I suspect it happen after he finished the Johns off.

@@Pinkranger87 little John that was Stuart from MAD Tv lol
This is the true Revenge of Michael Myers. Loved it from beginning to end.
Environment, mood, far away shots, out of focus shots of the shape, flashbacks, more suspense, etc is what the franchise REALLY needed... a far cry from the 2018' movie... It finally brought it back a bit to the original Halloween elements, although, much more hard core kills, which I think were needed for today's audiences..
She keeps referring to mob mentality, screaming “you sheep” in the film = us freedom loving people here in the USA. She promotes incredible horrific violence and says she’s trying to sensitize people to its after effects. She believes us d as hero shouldn’t have the right to bear arms, the very heart of our Constitution in a country where she and her family have literally made a killing.
lol this movie was awful, all the reviews even say so, blumhouse needs to stick to paranormal movies. They hands down ruined the franchise. Have Rob Zombie direct it or just do not make anymore
@@RaptureSniping It had elements I enjoyed but the story (or lack of) and dialogue were pretty bad. I think if you can laugh at all the dumb stuff and enjoy the Myers stuff it's pretty fun.
@@AngelTaylorDreamsInColor That's what JLC said but it seemed non-specific in the movie, even if that's what they were hinting at. Something going through the rumor mill is that the next one is gonna have the 2016 election as a plot point and that will likely kill any bit of fun I might be able to get out of it. I don't know why people feel the need to inject politics into everything anymore. Keep it subtle and up for interpretation at least.
It was fun watching Michael Myers reclaim his throne as the King of Cinema Slashers. You really can't imagine Jason, Freddy or any of the others holding a candle to a fully unleashed and motivated Myers. I'm kind of disappointed next year's film will be the end. I've always had a soft spot for Mikey since Carpenter's original film came out the day before I was born in '78.
I highly doubt that this will be the end. David gordon Green said that the next movie, Halloween Ends, has a twist ending so who knows. But it will probably be a while until there are new Halloween movies that dont have anything to do with this trilogy.
Im sure it will continue on, but for this trilogy, I would like for it to end, especially since they brought in the actors from the 1978 film. Let it end with Michael for this one, and people can make remakes I guess, but these actors and this trilogy deserve a ending for the franchise at least imo especially after Kills
@@akalegand200 the twist will be that one of the females will be the new Michael Myers. Just watch
This second movie wasn’t satisfying to me, compared to the first. Focused too much on the philosophical, and too many subplots. 6/10 in my books.
@@bobd2078 Noooooooo. That would suck.
There were many shots in this movie that were just plain gorgeous to look at...many of them bloody. I thought this was a bit better than the 2018 film. I'm a fan of this timeline now. The mask looks INCREDIBLE.
Yes I agree the mask in great. He looks the best in this timeline in my opinion. Great visuals.

I love the new aggressive Bad ass Michael
the fire scene is awesome !!! maybe it sounds stupid, but I feel like it all revolved around michael and not so much laurie and that was great, seeing it from the side of the shape.

The flashback scenes were just UNREAL. Haunting. The first two were so well done. Really gave Michael’s legend return.
"This is the town's story"
Nah this is Michael's movie!!
Been watching this franchise's movies since 1978, and still watching in 2021. Happy Halloween 2021 everyone!
What a fucking director! I love the Halloween series so much, but seeing David Gordon Green getting bashed by flames and cruising in with a full face respirator is awesome. The things we take for granted in film!
Was he a cameo in the burning house scene or with a camera from a first person view?
@@jalmaser2317 probably just filming. But let me know if you find more
This movie was all about rage, Michael's rage through his brutal kills and trescending beyond his human status. The rage of Laurie and her family in needing to put this man down and the rage of Haddonfield after what he did and what he is doing now. I will say this, Halloween Ends needs to be the final movie of the franchise period. If he dies in that movie than he stays ded. No reboots of any kind no retellings.
agreed, no more halloween movies after halloween ends. its DONE.
@@Jeptheplay yes. But I’m sure ten years from now some dumbass reboot will be done.
Well obviously hes not dead in kills if Halloween Ends the final movie Comes out now 14 october 2022
@@pab1381 Main producers are the Akkad family. So expect a reboot eventually from those money hungry pricks.

The fact that we dont see the actor that plays michael break from his role even once is scaring tf outta me
Well i mean it is the real michael myers! they finally tracked him down and decided to offer him a stunt man job.
@@doomhead2332 I’m pretty sure the scene with Michael in this film where Nick plays him was cut lol, either way it’s still James Jude Courtney doing most of the work.
@@the8568 yes it was cut and apparently will be put exclusively on the dvd
Its not Nick Castle from 78 James jude Courtney is donning the mask this time , Nick is 75 years old not in prime shape for stunts anymore .

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Fan favs lol
he was my favorite...
I feel the nostalgia, seeing all the old characters; but at the same time: I love an angry mob!🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃☄
Yeah the whole town banded together but Michael kicked their ass
The respect for the original, the story, soundtrack, scenes, action, etc.... all amazing. This is by far the best Halloween and the best Slasher movie.
Watching it at was an incredible experience.
That flashback scene! 🙌🏼
It's great seeing Captain Kirk back in action again. And that music!
lol
William Shatner must be honored I would be
This set must’ve been terrifying to work on!
Traumatizing, too. Especially for the actor who played Michael meyers I mean I get it they are actors but playing a character so incredibly violent and evil. Like Heath Ledger and the cute actor who played IT clown. Oof damn.
Man, this movie was amazing
LOVED this movie. I watched it in theatres and I hadn’t watched the trailer at all which made it ten times better. The mask is amazing and there were so many good scenes
I’ve always loved these Michael myers movies this my favorite one
Forever a classic. I liked how they brought back the old characters and how thoughtful each kill was. Michael has not been human for a while now and in this movie, there is definitely no sign of humanity in him. He used to let people walk away, not anymore. I do think they should have had more people with guns when they tried to corner him in that street but he's evolved to a point of no return to kill those trying to kill him instead of just focusing on Laurie.

Booo
idgaf what all y’all say, this was an amazing movie, better than the other 2018 one. even as a huge halloween fan, some moments got me emotional
I really wanted Karen, Tommy, and Nurse Marion to live!
I agree it was 100 times better then 18
I got emotional too, because the movie sucked sooo bad!!!
same! It was a masterpiece! Unbelievable the negativity I've read!
@@dolamike584 what makes it suck so bad
It's funny seeing Tommy aka Brian from the breakfast club being a badass 🤣
Micheal is a savage in this movie
This was a great movie. Full of different emotions. Only horror movie to ever make me tear up. That scene was heartbreaking and hard too watch
I’m this movie you feel for the victims
Well some of the victims.
This is the best direction they could have taken this series.
2:48 what a cute interaction, Jamie Lee is a strong woman 😄
This was an amazing movie Jamie's acting was great
I hated the acting for alot of the characters but was incredibly in love with the creativity and badassery that is Michael. It got most of it's rep because of him and because of that, I love the movie. I just wish the writing and acting was better for sure. We deserved more intense gore and is a HUGE milestone in this franchise's history!!!! I do agree that the story should have been a little clearer and that the acting and cheesy lines should have been tuned down alot. Can't wait to see what else Michael Myers has in store for the last installment!
'Halloween Kills' is so god damn good!
Jamie called it “people are gonna be agitated by this movie in a way they’re probably not expecting” not gonna lie the movie did piss me off, especially the ending and then a few of the kills were just like BROOOOO you need to be stopped 😤🤫😬😴
At first I didn’t really enjoy the movie. Until the end when I realized that Michaels drive was home. So they took the phrase from the original 1978 movie “The night he came home” and used it as Michaels motivation. He just wants to come back home. Brilliant work by David Gordon Green.
This sequel is good! A lot of Michael's scenes both in the present and his past, when delved into that, were very similar to Carpenters original story and filmmaking. The terror filled screaming of his victims and the viciousness of each kill are the weapons that generate the fear which causes the town of Haddonfield to go insane and lose its soul to mob mentality. Just like the original (1978) everyone except Dr.Loomis underestimates Michael. This movie, Halloween Kills, Haddonfield underestimates him again and pays heavily for it. Big Body Count!!🎃🔪☠
this is the music during the appearance of Michael, it's mesmerizing, I fell in love with this song ....
idk why but I love the way the song hits with the transition little after 0:46
I am soo happy that you came back to okd series. I started cry when I saw Loomis again😂❤️ Amazing.
I can’t wait for next year
I can’t wait to Michael and Jason fight next year and at the end of the movie they look at each other straight in the eyes while sunset 🌅 is happening and then they just kiss each other best Halloween ending will be so hot
This movie is a masterpiece
Must see Halloween movie , one of the best Halloween movies' ever made GREAT JOB
Sorry but I disagree with you

Must see opinion
Omg the ending was jaw clenching and a cliff hanger🙌🏾♥️👍
all brilliant actors love these films always drag me in excited for this one :)
Danny McBride is the last person I'd expect to be a screenwriter for Halloween Kills lol!
Same thing I said lol.
omg seen the film omg how it interplays from the original and a lot of the original cast coming over 40 yrs later such a great premise after the reboot thx you miss curtis for reprising a role and the rest of the cast .
Even thought the 1978 was a classic the reboot laying a foundation for part 2 part 2 blew my mind a very well done.
ps thanks for all the JUMPS
What an amazing entry into the Halloween franchise and sets up perfectly for Ends
They could have ended it. But distroyed everything .
@@Sagaraliasjacky I disagree. They can keep giving us more Michael Myers and more Halloween movies even if they go back to the 70s, 80s and 90s timeline
@@Sagaraliasjacky I agree lol
When he came out the house during the flames was cool
GREAT MOVIE!!!!! ... SAT ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT, I LOVE IT. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT HALLOWEEN..THE BEST MOVIE SERIES IN CINEMATIC HISTORY
Michael mayers ist der beste Mörder von allen Horrorfilmen
Evil does NOT die tonight. Michael Myers is an apex predator. He is an unstoppable killing machine, just like
Jason Voorhees, and even the Terminator. I think there's going to be another "Halloween" movie, a TRILOGY.
And I think the next movie is going deeper and deeper into Michael Myers. It's probably will show what REALLY makes him tick.

Took my daughter to the Opening Night in our town of Lakewood, Washington 🏞️
We both loved it!!!
I love how they brought people back from the 1st one 1978
Hats off to all that made this film thank you for such a great movies
What makes me laugh is that most of the people who disliked this movie didn’t really understand the story, the trilogy and the whole damn series as a whole, he ain’t a fucking man…. He’s Michael Myers.
facts
Seriously. They’re trying way too hard to make him out to be a regular human. He’s Michael fucking Audrey Myers. (Admittedly they could’ve come up with a more imposing middle name for him…)
@@jamesmorrison2055 I had no idea that was his middle name 😂😂 but fr I agree!! 🙌

Loved it- screamed like banshie! Bravo! 🧡
Loved it!
Ok??
Michael Myers is as big as the tradition of Halloween itself. To those of us that grew up with the original Halloween movie know exactly what im talking about.
I'm just now watching Halloween Kills....and boy was it awesome
That's was great chapter. Love Halloween series.
I absolutely love this series starting with Halloween 2018. By far the best Michael Myers actor, the best Mask and the best suspense, violence and kills by Michael. He is an absolute badass. Halloween Kills cements the Shapes terror that he carry’s out on the people Haddonfield. Major props to Blumhouse, Green and McBride. Thank you!
My jaw was dropping alot in this movie lol. I was like whoa
Michael raised from the ashes like a phoenix...freaking fantastic ♥
So all these years we’ve been thinking Laurie strode was the target for all of Michael’s obsession and rage since she was the only one to survive michael’s first kills (his parents and his sister and he spared baby Laurie) but now after watching the movie (don’t worry no spoilers in this comment) I see it’s something completely different something we overlooked, the 1 thing that has played a part in of Michael’s story. here’s a small hint for those wondering or haven’t seen the film yet: you saw it in the trailer for the film.
AMAZING MOVIE!!!
I really love it!😍👏🏼

This behind the scenes of Halloween kills is amazing I love seeing all the old cast on set i really enjoyed the movie

Opinion
I loved it. Especially the end. Michael is truly the goat of all horror films.
He's so much like Jason here. Using weapons of opportunity. Plus his coming out of nowhere and the administration of brutal, gruesome kills.
But Jason would have taken down the whole mob at the beginning rather than getting beaten up first and then getting up
@@MikeJohnMentzer not sure about that jason can also get knocked off with bullets like in part 3 where he gets beaten several times
Ironically, Jason is a Michael rip-off. It's all coming together.
@@The_Shape20 Yeah, but that's in the 3rd movie
I think his later on Zombie version is a lot times stronger
And I think Jason from Jason X is the strongest
@@monsterenergypunk Halloween has been borrowing from Friday the 13th since 1981 when they added gore to Halloween II!
THEY WILL NEVER PUT A END TO MICHAEL MYERS !!!!!!!
Haven’t seen it yet but already so much is hilarious 😂🤣😂🤣She stabbed herself with that needle like she was trying to end it all😂🤣😂🤣😂lmao
went to see this with 8 of my friends on halloween night, we loved it.
David has done such a wonderful job taking over Haddonfield. These movies feel like there were no movies between 1978 and 2018, i grew up watching all of the Halloweens through zombies in 07 and yeah they were great, 4,5,6 were ok i guess, but idk man watching 2018s FINALLY gave me that same feeling of watching Carpenters. Its the vibe that was missing in the later movies, David Green has found a way to tap into Johns themes and stylistic camera techniques and all in all this feels like the true continuation of Michael and Lauries stories, even though its supposedly an “alternate timeline”. Buuullllshit lol 1978, 2018, 2021, 2022. THAT is michaels story. I just hope “Ends” lives up to an ending chapter in a trilogy.
True
In my opinion it's the best in the series
I can’t wait to watch it 😍
Its been the best of em all....i wasnt born when the first one had been made but as i saw the first halloween as i grown up catched me forever....amazing never felt so scared....the whole theatre laughed at the deagle scene but for me its been the last few minutes.....goosebumps straight outta hell 😆
as much as I'll admit this movie had some major flaws, seeing the cast of the original movie meeting up with each other 40 years later and hugging it out is pretty heartwarming.
This movie was perfect!
we're proud of you Michael. you killed well, my friend.
