I personally hate them. I tell myself they were expensive fan films. Oddly, the last one was the only one that interested me. I appreciated that they tried to do something different with it. Was hoping Corey would be the new Myers if the series was to continue. Though I'm grateful it ended. This series should be left in peace. I tell myself the entire series ended with Halloween IV: The Return of Michael Myers.
The farther we've gotten into this 'neverending franchise' era, the more likely I am to simply pick a point in the original material and cut everything else off.
For me, Michael's story ends in Halloween II, and Halloween III just lets us comfortably move on. (everything else is just a movie to heckle like I'm auditioning for MST3K)
Sure, all of them have some interesting moments (allowing for good YouTube montage material, I suppose), but none seem to understand what the original was even doing.
If I have a soft spot for any of them, though, it's probably Halloween (2018) which at least took a reasonable stand and erased the Laurie-is-his-sister nonsense in a single cathartic line:
"No, that was just something people made up"
Amen.
The new Halloween franchise was notably gore loaded, and there was several small little gems thrown in like the Halloween 3 masks kill scene when the kids were on the playground. It did get wild and the story seemed to stray, alot!
The flashback scenes with Loomis were probably my favorite altogether. Nothing will ever hold its place like the OG 78 🎃
