Defending the Lesser Halloween Films




Slashers show

Summary: <p>Halloween is a series that spans 12 films, novels, comics, and saucy, saucy fan fiction... so saucy. </p> <p>But let's admit it, not all of the of them are good, right? In fact, some of them are pretty bad.</p> <p>Virtually no horror franchise is immune to weak installments, regardless how iconic. That is why Ade is acting as the public defender of sorts for the lesser Halloween films. </p> <p>In this last installment of Talktober, we feature each of the branching and divergent timelines. Curse of Thorn? We got you covered. Headmistress Laurie Strode? We've got opinions. </p> <p>But do not fret, we also touch on the tenets of the franchise that make them great too, including John Carpenter's formative works. </p> <p>We discuss the performances of many of the Michael Myers actors: Nick Castle, Tony Moran, Dick Warlock, George P. Wilbur, Don Shanks, Chris Durand, Brad Loree, Tyler Mane, and James Jude Courtney.</p> <p>We also ponder how Rick Rosenthal could have directed both Halloween II and Resurrection. Yeah, explain that one. </p> <p>We compare Rob Zombie's iteration of the Myers family to that of Blumhouse, but admittedly this episode was recorded before we had seen Halloween Kills. </p> <p>Also, remember that last year we did an entire episode on Season of the Witch, which is like, totes gnarly. </p> <p>If you ever have feedback or recommendations on future episodes,   please let us know at slasherspod@gmail.com.
