Thumbs up HALLOWEEN 2018 - Kills The Box Office!

We caught it this weekend and enjoyed it! Wasn't frightening but being a fan of the original, I was pleased. The look and feel was very complimentary of the original! Including the intro, music and even font of the text.

But the slasher film was resuscitated in a big way this weekend, as the 2018 remake of Halloween had a domestic debut of $77.5 million, according to Box Office Mojo. It’s the second highest opening weekend in the month of October, trailing only Venom’s $80 million debut from earlier this month. Among R-rated horror movies, Halloween also had the second-strongest opening weekend of all time, behind the debut of Stephen King’s It ($123.4 million) in September 2017. On a meager $10 million production budget, the movie is already a huge financial win for Universal Pictures and Blumhouse.

At the very least, the success of the new Halloween ensures that Carpenter’s decades-old franchise still has plenty of life in 2018, and that another sequel is probably imminent. (Helping matters is the ambiguous nature of the film’s ending.) But the massive box opening could also mean future success for the slasher subgenre. One commercial breakthrough doesn’t make a trend, but after this weekend, slashers are more alive than they’ve been since the late ’90s. Whether more slasher films can break through in the same way will depend on how well they’re able to recapture the subgenre’s occasional highmarks and avoid the lows of the late ’90s and early-to-mid-2000s.

Interesting. Now if we can just keep someone of doing a redeaux of Halloween III: Season of the Witch then we will be ok. That movie was nothing short of garbage.

Agreed! Fortunately, this film is a true direct sequel of the original.

My favorite nameless site has been down for a few weeks. I have quite a bit of new music/movies I want and the terrible person/instant gratification in me is growing impatient. I know, I know, first world problems.

I do realize that I could also pay for them but the internet has ruined me.
