I came across this channel when I was in HS. I always thought Dr wolfula was some older creature but after just watching the making Dr wolfula doc. , turns out u were 16 when u started posting vids on YT. That crazy lol, I think that it's awesome that you've kept the channel up.
Dr Loomis pretending to be a creepy disembodied voice is a good laugh. It scares the kids and is totally the kind of harmless (and helpful) prank an adult would pull on a kid .
@@EvilDick1995 do you ever think there will be a point in your life when you stop giving a shit whether or not things are "cringy" or do you think you'll die this way?
I love the moment in the every end when Laurie realises that Michael is still alive. That moment when she starts to cry realising that she is still in danger. It is sooo damn sad and scary which makes it beyond effective.
Don't make excuses for the growth of your channel. This channel fills the slot in our heart where Joe Bob Briggs and Elvira go. Keep Rockin in and WE LOVE YOU! Dr. Wolfula is Horror Hosting for Gen Z and Beyond!
28:26 "Michael just wanted a hug the whole time." Holy shit, I lost it! I remember watching it on VHS and rewinding the ending over and over. Between the shot of Micheal's body being gone, the theme music being cued up, Loomis' reaction, Laurie crying, the shots of previous locations, and Michael's heavy breathing....it all came together beautifully and gave me chills. Had no other sequels been made, I believe the ending would be even more highly regarded than it already is. But almost a dozen sequels and decades of the cliché that the killer isn't dead at the end have taken some of the oomph away.
I agree with you about the ending of the original. It would've been a much more powerful and creepy ending if they never made any sequels. Although I do enjoy the sequels.
I’m a huge huge fan of another UA-cam reviewer named Decker shado, he’s usually very Meticulous and intelligent with his reviews. He did this series last year and said that halloween was boring and Michael Myers wasn’t intimidating, and said the acting was poor and honestly he really dropped the ball in my opinion. But where he drops the ball you knock it right out the park dr wolfula, you nail everything that makes Halloween so special, the atmosphere, the moody lighting, the way Michael walks, you hit it all and really encapsulate why Halloween is a movie still worth watching today. I usually enjoy you for your snarky reviews but when a movie like Halloween or texas chainsaw deserves more you never fail to deliver and explain why.
Fun Fact: The song Jamie Lee Curtis sings while she walks away from Michael was improvised. Carpenter just told her to make up something and sing it on the spot. Happy Halloween! 🎃
Man I’d love to get in depth reviews like this more often! I’m sure you’re crunched for time, but I’ve been a big fan for years. Always looking forward to your next review!
I remember watching your videos in high school. No one in my small town loved horror films or the 80s slasher franchises, so you kept me entertained. So glad you’re revisiting the series. Happy 10th anniversary
South park special then September exits and October enters...we’re seeing the silver lining... I can already tell, this is gonna be one HELL of an October!!
God, I fucking love this channel. Been watching since I was in 7th grade and I can say the videos have only gone up in quality since then. It’s really impressive to see how far this channel has come since I first started watching 6 years ago. Keep up the great, Doc. You always have my support.
I always end my October Halloween month with John Carpenter's Halloween every year! I love this film so much! It's one of those films where I know every piece of dialogue and scene by scene! This film NEVER gets old! I NEVER get tired of it! Great review man! Also, thank you so much for talking about the behind the scenes and how the film came to be! Even mentioning Black Christmas that (sort of) inspired John to create the film too. Looking forward to the other videos of Ahhctober!
Welcome aboard , my dude . I’ve been a fan of his for YEARS . I still binge watch his videos from time to time especially during the fall and winter . So relaxing to watch .
Your original Halloween videos are some of my favourites (whether they be riffviews or the serious reviews), because it's my favourite horror franchise, as well. I also believe that your Halloween 3 riffview is your funniest video ever. Super excited to see the new versions now that you've really developed as a reviewer!
God, I'm so glad I stumbled onto this channel. You have such great content for a horror lover like me and so many others, and have created such a great horror host in Dr. Wolfula. I'm having a total blast going through all of your vids to catch up. You got a lifelong subscriber out of me Doc. Thanks for all the great content my hairy friend!
I remember your first review of Halloween III Season of the Witch. The first AHHHctober review, nine years ago. Good times, and I look forward to your updated version.
Turns out the actor who played Laurie's father was Peter Griffith. His first wife was Tippi Hendren, star of Alfred Hitchcock films The Birds and Marnie. Their granddaughter went on to star in the most horrifying films of the 2010s, The 50 Shades of Grey trilogy.
You know that song where she says, I wish I had you all alone just the two of us you know who that song was written to and sung to Ben tramer of course the Haddonfield heart throb. Everybody in the town was singing that song cause Ben was still walking the Earth at this point what a tragedy that was later this night to take the man down like that Haddonfield’s greatest hero.
The original Halloween is definitely a classic in my book! I watch it a few times before Halloween comes. I love this movie and it's one of my favorite horror flicks of all time. Great review Doc!
I loved your breakdown of the blue esthetic. As you know, most movies shoot during the day and use a blue filter to portray night and I never felt this movie took that cop out. The lighting of this movie is absolutely perfect.
I like how this movie (and the sequel) doesn’t really dive into any of the protagonists’ backstory, notwithstanding the reveal at the end of Halloween 2. More than any other one of these it feels like it’s really a day in the life of some normal people who are interrupted by this horror. You know all you need to know just from these characters interacting and going through their life like usual before Michael catches them. Even halloween 4, which is good in it’s own way, spends a lot of effort fleshing out the characters who Michael Myers will stalk and with it so heavily tied into the backstory of Michael Myers from the get go, it makes it standout less from the crowd of slashers like this film.
This review was amazing Doc! I’ve been watching this channel since 2015, and it’s funny to see that we’re already on the tenth aahctober! Hope these videos keep coming for years to come, and good luck Doc on your videos!
Genuinely a great review and actually watched your first review on Halloween fairly recently as it really provided such great insight as to why I hated the Rob Zombie version! Happy Ahhhctober!!
The one thing that I feel like is always missing from these reviews of Halloween is the stare that Loomis gives at the end. He's not surprised. He's not dreading in fear. He knew this was going to happen. His facial expression is subtle yet powerful.
Carpenter homaged Leigh Brackett by naming the Sheriff after her because he was a fan of the western movies she wrote. She was also a highly regarded SF/fantasy writer who mentored a young Ray Bradbury.
3:51 When Michael approaches the house and the bedroom light goes off, what follows is perhaps the longest sustained keyboard note ever recorded in a horror movie.
I couldn't be happier seeing this review finally here. Well done Doc! Halloween 1978 is my favorite film of all time, so this was a treat, hold the trick. 🎃
It's crazy you brought up Kitty Genovese because I just looked into that recently but I think nobody answered her because its Halloween and her neighbors probably thought it was a prank by a immature teenager.
I love the decision on the mask. It’s so simple but defined at the same time. You can tell he’s human but not at the same time. Perfect decision by production
Been watching you from the beginning man!!... I couldn't wait and my favourite horror/Halloween movie AGAIN... keep up the good work.... you deserve all the praise!
I think I found this channel thru Docs initial Halloween (the movie) reviews several years ago. Now it wouldn't be Halloween (the holiday) without my favorite horror host!
The only scene they should have done differently is when Jamie finds her friend's bodies. The closet door opening by itself and the body falling took it out of reality. Other than that a perfect film. Halloween 1978 and The Exorcist are my favorite horror films.
I love this channel so much, your reviews are funny and entertaining. Been watching since I was in 7th grade and now im a freshmen in college. Love your vids man!
5:48 Imagining Michael in court would be funny. Judge: Michael Myers you stand accused of the murder of your sister Judith Myers. Do you have anything to say in your defence? Michael breathes heavily.
The Critereon Laserdisc has an option where you can watch either the theatrical cut or the extended cut. It's an interesting option being able to watch it either way. You can even select which of the extra scenes you want to watch if you don't want all of the extra scenes.
I came across this channel when I was in HS. I always thought Dr wolfula was some older creature but after just watching the making Dr wolfula doc. , turns out u were 16 when u started posting vids on YT. That crazy lol, I think that it's awesome that you've kept the channel up.
16’s 112 in wolf years, so maybe your first impression was right.
The best part is every video he’s uploaded since then has been hilarious
Actually he was 17.
Facts I remember he only had 20k
The quality of these videos with under 150k subs is amazing.
Keep up the great content.
God speed.
"this film is 40+ years old, old enough to have a mid-life crisis and cheat on it's wife with a movie half it's age"
Solid joke
Dr Loomis pretending to be a creepy disembodied voice is a good laugh. It scares the kids and is totally the kind of harmless (and helpful) prank an adult would pull on a kid .
Thank you, I appreciate that
@@dr.loomis4221 I was wondering what the 1 comment would be on here and it's Dr. Loomis himself!!! From the grave too!!!!
Literally just watched the film for the first time yesterday. The timing couldn’t be more perfect.
Welcome to the party, pal
@@BlazePiffington thanks, the film was fantastic. I did a double feature and watched the 2018 sequel too and that was pretty solid as well
Did you like it?
@Andrew Powell Yeah it was really good. I understand why it’s such a classic
HomelessJoe You were lucky getting to see it for the first time. I hope nobody spoiled it for you.
This channel is SO underrated dude.
(Can’t wait for the stream Doc)
It really is, he’s one of the only horror UA-camrs who’s comedy is never cringy. He’s hilarious
@@EvilDick1995 do you ever think there will be a point in your life when you stop giving a shit whether or not things are "cringy" or do you think you'll die this way?
@@thebible4484 I’ll probly die this way. I find a lot of things cringy, can’t help it
Who's underrating it exactly? I heard nothing but positive remarks from people.
I love the moment in the every end when Laurie realises that Michael is still alive. That moment when she starts to cry realising that she is still in danger. It is sooo damn sad and scary which makes it beyond effective.
I enjoy seeing Halloween as a stand alone film.
@@flightofthebumblebee9529 Halloween is the ultimate "chose your own adventure" horror series.
No better way to start the AAHctober than with the original Halloween.
Yeah the one who made the slaughter films popular
Been watching since the first ahhhctobers grew up watching the Halloween remake reviews. Shit was funny when I was 11 and it’s funny when I’m 18
Fall really starts to feel special for me when Ahhctober starts.

Rest in Peace Donald Plesnce.... Aka Doctor Loomis....
The prospects of Michael seducing the mechanic out of his jumpsuit before killing him has the makings of a great comedy sketch.
Damm bruh I’ve been watching this dude since 4th grade I’m a senior in high school now it’s crazy how far you’ve come keep rocking Doc Happy Ahhctober
You are the Halloween 3 of UA-camrs Doc: woefully underated and overshadowed by inferior peers
I'm a year late, but holy shit this is a great comment. Kudos to you 👍
Just finished watching this and Halloween 2 ('81) back to back! It's Halloween season!! Happy Halloween to everyone out there!!
Fun Fact: The song Jamie Lee Curtis sings while she walks away from Michael was improvised. Carpenter just told her to make up something and sing it on the spot. Happy Halloween! 🎃
My God, how do you make up a song on the spot? Amazing Jamie Lee
You can listen to the song on UA-cam. They actually made it for Halloween 2018
Man I’d love to get in depth reviews like this more often! I’m sure you’re crunched for time, but I’ve been a big fan for years. Always looking forward to your next review!
I remember watching your videos in high school. No one in my small town loved horror films or the 80s slasher franchises, so you kept me entertained. So glad you’re revisiting the series. Happy 10th anniversary
LET'S GOOOOOOO! OCTOBER BABY!
SO PUMPED FOR THIS VIDEO
Coming back for my annual rewatch of the Halloween reviews for Ahhctober.
South park special then September exits and October enters...we’re seeing the silver lining...
I can already tell, this is gonna be one HELL of an October!!
you can actually hear the love in the doc's voice for this film.
You taught me something new about halloween. Which is impossible. Great vid bud! This will become a staple of your channel
God, I fucking love this channel. Been watching since I was in 7th grade and I can say the videos have only gone up in quality since then. It’s really impressive to see how far this channel has come since I first started watching 6 years ago.
Keep up the great, Doc. You always have my support.
Looking back at Doc looking back at Halloween... Just the right cup of pumpkin spice I needed today. 🎃
I always end my October Halloween month with John Carpenter's Halloween every year! I love this film so much! It's one of those films where I know every piece of dialogue and scene by scene! This film NEVER gets old! I NEVER get tired of it! Great review man!

Sooooo hyped, found your channel recently and absorbed most of your ahhctobers. Love the content!
Welcome aboard , my dude . I’ve been a fan of his for YEARS . I still binge watch his videos from time to time especially during the fall and winter . So relaxing to watch .
10:22 Fun fact: Carpenter spent years in Bowling Green KY, and "Russellville" is a nearby town.
Your original Halloween videos are some of my favourites (whether they be riffviews or the serious reviews), because it's my favourite horror franchise, as well. I also believe that your Halloween 3 riffview is your funniest video ever.
Super excited to see the new versions now that you've really developed as a reviewer!

Always nice to see the doc this time of year
Ah, Halloween on UA-cam. How I've longed for your warm embrace. Channels like this putting treats into my watch later list are a reason to be happy!
19:13 damn dead meat shots fired 👀
Happy AHHctober!!! Let the fun begin, I’ve been waiting for this!
I enjoy the photos you shared. Some of them I have never seen. Behind the scenes stuff is awesome ❤️
I loved your breakdown of the blue esthetic. As you know, most movies shoot during the day and use a blue filter to portray night and I never felt this movie took that cop out. The lighting of this movie is absolutely perfect.
10:08 I never thought I needed to hear wolfula say “gassin someone up” 😂 but now I do 😂
Edit: also 23:36 😂
Hey Doc, when you're talking about the kids watching "The Thing from Another World" the screen shot on the TV is from "Forbidden Planet".
I like how this movie (and the sequel) doesn’t really dive into any of the protagonists’ backstory, notwithstanding the reveal at the end of Halloween 2. More than any other one of these it feels like it’s really a day in the life of some normal people who are interrupted by this horror.

" a late abortion to the eye"... It's lines like this is why we love you Doc!
This review was amazing Doc! I’ve been watching this channel since 2015, and it’s funny to see that we’re already on the tenth aahctober! Hope these videos keep coming for years to come, and good luck Doc on your videos!

I used to watch you about two years back and I have to say you’re better than ever. I’m so glad you’re still making content
Man I’m so hyped a new doctor wolfula video is an event so when I’m not binge watching old doc videos I’m here at the wolfulair waiting for new ones
3:51 When Michael approaches the house and the bedroom light goes off, what follows is perhaps the longest sustained keyboard note ever recorded in a horror movie.
I would love to see more of your videos, your point of view and jokes is what we need :)
This is the best hidden horror-movie channel on UA-cam.
I love the cemetery keeper reference at the beginning
Wolfula's put-on Northern accent is what brings me back to this channel....Ben Tramah', John Cahpentah'.
🎃🎃
This is the definitive Halloween review! Nobody can top it.
LOL When he gets excited he sounds like 80s cartoon Skeletor.
You're the best horror UA-camr of all time and I am your number 1 fan
I watched this video last night but I wanna give Doc another view for his amazing content.
I couldn't be happier seeing this review finally here.
Well done Doc!
Halloween 1978 is my favorite film of all time, so this was a treat, hold the trick. 🎃
Lol, love the beginning! It always drives me crazy how we don't know the rest of that story.
OH GOD FULLY HD WOLFULA!!!! ITS SO PRETTY YET SCARY!!!
Great review of a classic! You pointed out some things that I'd never thought about, very well done
It's crazy you brought up Kitty Genovese because I just looked into that recently but I think nobody answered her because its Halloween and her neighbors probably thought it was a prank by a immature teenager.
I love the decision on the mask. It’s so simple but defined at the same time. You can tell he’s human but not at the same time. Perfect decision by production

You know it’s going to be good when you’d like the video before it even loads. LOL
Last reason doc made a new Halloween review video?
EAT SHIT AND LIVE RICKY, THATS WHY!
Dude you only have 102k subscribers seriously you deserve sooooo much more
I’ve really been watching your videos since the jason x video, god I love these videos

Love rewatching these videos during Halloween season

I remember my class showing this back in October 2018
At least its not the Rob Zombie remake.
Love the new look on you doc.
