    The Weird Al cameo was pretty bizarre , but then again this is the same franchise that had Busta rhymes killing off micheal , so it's not completely surprising

      Not at all! Doug and his brother are more than a little lazy when it comes to writing and actual criticism. Unfortunately, Doug also seems to be swayed by whatever the “internet’s” popular opinions are, and might not have the depth of film knowledge that Brad does.
      Brads videos are both very well written and very funny; perhaps more importantly, his opinions come from a knowledge of film and are unique. He’s comfortable enough with himself that he’ll even joke about the internet’s opinion or stand by a less popular reading of a movie if he believes that reading exists and needs to be told.
      Brad simply tries harder, and creates more rewarding content. He also doesn’t seem like a neck-bearded jerk... I can’t say the same for... other internet reviewers

    The first 30 minutes of Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 is amazing! But unfortunately after that the movie goes downhill... But at least we still have Mane's awesome performance as Michael Myers. And at end of the movie we have one the saddest scene in the entire franchise. Is when Sheriff Brackett see his daughter dead in the bathroom ( R.I.P Jamie ). That scene was very sad, and it was an excellent performance by Brad Dourif.

      Jake The Deputy talking about having sex with dead bodys is a easter egg to Axel, the corone from Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter and the most amazing thing about the first 30 minutes is the hospital chase scene. Because Michael Myers looks like a badass and a champ holding a axe.

    I think Zombie’s movies are the worst Halloween movies because they’re joyless, mean, gross, and kind of irritating. The other Halloween movies usually had something redeeming about them. Zombie wrote the biggest group of unlikeable characters outside of Annie and her dad. Everyone else was annoying and horrid. The plot of part 2 is laughably bad and pointless to put it lightly. Yes, Busta Rhymes doing king fu to Michael Myers is ridiculous, but it’s funny and memorable. I can’t say anything is either of those things for Zombie’s films. The only memorable thing about them is how unmemorable they are.
    Great review as always.

      Isn't the whole point of Michael Myers being that he looks perfectly normal on the outside, but is actually a hollow shape without a soul? Hence why he wears an emotionless replica of the face of an actor known for his hamminess? In the 1978 original, when they remove his clown mask at the beginning, he looks like a perfectly normal middle class kid.
      So having him look like Freddy or Jason would kind of defeat the point, no?

    • @billjacobs521
      @billjacobs521 5 років тому +2

      They didn't show adult Michael until, what, H5 I think, and even that was brief and in the dark. He has an obsession with covering his face and has "The blackest eyes, the devil's eyes"--those are really the only identifying features of Michael, physically. Either his face shouldn't be shown, since he has always kept covered, or at least he should look...unsettling. Something about his look should be kinda Uncanny Valley, somehow inhuman--a beard does not do that. No, I don't want him to look like Jason under the mask, that was just comedic, but he should be the terrifying boogeyman, not a drunken hobo.

And in this universe, he was a freak even as a little kid. Actually, as a kid in the 2007 version, he did look creepy, even if the actor was trying too hard.

      When it came to Friday the 13th, he was already making H2 (since it made money, it was same deal as with the first one: "it's either you or someone else") and the critical reception of his first Halloween movie wasn't really great so I doubt Platinum Dunes would want him in the director's chair.

    Malcolm McDowel needs to be in more things, just generally. I saw a documentary that described him in passing as someone “whose pretty-boy looks faded and led to him making a living off direct-to-video villain roles” and I’ll be damned if that bad take becomes his predominant legacy in the public mind.

    *The Halloween franchise as treats*
    Halloween (1978) = Reese's peanut butter cups
    Halloween II (1981) = Kit Kats
    Season of the witch = Starbursts
    The rest = Candy corn, sun maid raisins, and toilet paper

    One of the worst parts in this movie is that Micheal screams like he's angry when he kills someone. It doesn't understand micheal. He doesn't kill because he's angry. He doesn't feel emotion. That's well established in the original 78 film. He's like a blank slate. There's no Malice in his motivation. No forethought in his actions. He's like a force of nature. Taking life is his one and only instinct.

    Fun fact Rob Zombie originally wanted Laurie to be the killer but he ultimately included Michael to avoid fan backlash because this series doesn’t have a good track record when trying something new
    He did not succeed clearly

    Brad thank you so much for this upload. I found this to be one of your funniest snob episodes ever. I needed those laughs so much as it helped me get through a great deal of pain with non-stop laughing.
