Halloween (2018) ☆☆☆☆☆ (4.5/5) 1/7/19

Enormously statisfying.

Jamie Lee Curtis, amiright?

I have a real fondness for the stupidly titled H2O, but I’m fine with erasing the sins of past Halloweens. This one is tight and almost brilliant, with sweet surprises and terrific set pieces – the introduction is great, and so is the scene at the gas station. I do think the chase through the house at the end is a bit sloppy and questionable in a couple respects, but I had a lot of fun regardless.

It’s not 2018’s best horror – that’s Hereditary. But it is a fantastic popcorn movie and I live for it.
