I don't go to the theater often, but we journeyed out into the world to see this new take on the Halloween story. It takes place as if no other movie was made than the first, and serves to answer the question of "what if he got caught?" There were many things I enjoyed about the film the first time, and there was one or two things that I didn't particularly enjoy about it. I was interested to see if a re-watch or any additional scenes would help answer some of the questions I had. While the film didn't really answer those questions, I found myself caring less about their explanations.When I heard that Danny McBride and David Gordon Green were going to be involved with this Halloween revival, I thought of the many ways it could go. After the Rob Zombie run, which I'm the rare fan of because I just love anything Halloween, I was interested to see where we would go. I didn't see the serious take that this was, and it really has some unnerving moments that I didn't see coming. Knowing that the story was about Laurie Strode, I thought maybe we'd see some of her old self shine through and have some of those light-hearted moments.Jamie Lee Curtis plays an extremely stressed out and on edge Laurie Strode who has been preparing for Michael Myers to come back for 40 years. What I love about this movie is that it honors the classic before it. Bringing back such important character requires some respect to the original, and it does so in every way. There are many shots throughout the film that are homages to their predecessors, and also one particular gag with Laurie that I thought was hilarious.Everyone involved does a fantastic job at bringing this story to life. From Jamie to Judy Greet and Andi Matichak, and the supporting characters of Allyson's father and the wisecracking kid from the babysitter scene. I think that the music really breathes life into this movie, and it's fitting considering that the original Halloween had the same success with its now timeless score. I loved watching the special features and seeing how John Carpenter worked with his son and one other person to create this new, haunting score for Halloween.Overall, this movie is well worth your time if you're a fan of the series or horror in general. It even passes for a fairly decent movie overall, and it's nice to see Jamie Lee Curtis back in the series and playing an integral part. She's long been distant from the horror genre but appears to have been ready to play this role her whole life. Special features included deleted scenes which are all pretty good, even one showing what happens to the dog that Michael Myers kills (let me tell ya, it's probably a good thing they deleted it lol). Also, we get to see a feature-length documentary about Jamie's trip to HorrorHound convention in Indianapolis I think in 2013, which was also really interesting to see how she honors the horror community and gives it her all.Case came in great condition with 4K & Blu-ray copies, this release also included a digital copy.
