Just like the original Halloween 2, this one picks up right where we left off - with the Strode women heading to the hospital and Laurie’s house burning down with Michael inside. However, Michael is of course not dead and is back on the rampage once again. Now it’s up to an angry mob of Haddonfield residents, led by characters from the original Halloween, to take Michael down once and for all.

Next up, we’ll be watching and reviewing the listener suggested movie, The Empty Man (currently streaming on HBO).

111 | Halloween

Director: David Gordon Green

Writer: David Gordon Green, Danny McBride & Jeff Fradley

Synopsis: This Halloween picks up 40 years after the babysitter murders that killed Laurie Strode’s friends & left her permanently altered. Her coping mechanism turned out to be ultra preparedness, much to the chagrin of her daughter, who she brought up basically as a doomsday prepper. Daughter Karen now thinks of grizzled old Laurie as an embarrassment, & encourages her teenage daughter Allyson to stay away from her. But when a grey haired Michael Myers escapes from a transport bus (AGAIN), guess who comes running to granny & her panic room?
