I re-watched Halloween to psych myself up beforehand. My sister took me to see H20. It was a mostly empty theater that day, which kind of added to the atmosphere. 10 year old me really enjoyed the suspense and how it sort of followed the same beats as the first film, with slight twists to the formula, and some good…

You could go from H3 to The Fog (keeping in line with Carpenter films) then move to Creeps, and from there to European Vacation because Rusty Griswold was in both.

Dun-dun-dun-dun-de-duh….

Every post-Halloween II mask was complete and utter failure. They had the blandest expressions, too smooth and shiny to be at all menacing. The hair was slicked back…It was fucking Patrick Bateman, essentially. The mask was a visual representation of the rage and madness within Michael.

The final cries of "STOP IT!!!" just punch home the madness within.

When he finishes and collapses upon Michael's body, totally exhausted but vindicated in beating his former patient, I felt like that would've been a good moment to end everything. They could die together, peacefully. That, or he gives him a big kiss.

Chucky In Space.

H2O is totally worth it because it makes up for all the crap after the second film (III aside). But be prepared to deal with Josh Hartnet and that crappy haircut of his.

Yep. They never bother to explain away that one in the lesser sequels. "Well, it's a good thing that we got him those donor eyes, now he'll be able to see where he stabs people once he awakes to quench his bloodthirst!"

Why have we not gotten the Child's Play/Leprechaun cross-over no one has demanded?

Save yourself the headache and watch I,II, and H2O, then just add Season of the Witch as a nice transition into other Tom Atkins-starring fare, and you've built yourself the foundation for an awesome marathon spanning a litany of cult and underrated films.

Halloween, Halloween II, H2O are pretty much all you need. Halloween III is a good detour and could be a movie in it's own right when you drop the first half of the title. It's a delightful, yet heavy-handed and basic, riff on corporate control, ubiquitous advertising, and consumer culture. I like Curse enough because…

He's charmingly befuddled at your attempts of seduction.

You knew what you were getting yourself into when you joined this club.

Lionel.

It runs so often on Comedy Central, one can be forgiven on a listless Saturday afternoon with nothing better to do than whimsical masturbation.

"I am afraid of how I might taste as everybody's dinner."

So did he.

Hannibal cross-over!

There's still time to get Mickey Rooney!
