Criticism of Halloween Kills, a greater continuation, bloody and stuck to the original film

Browse! Three years ago we celebrated the 40th anniversary of the premiere of Halloween with the premiere of his direct sequel: The night of Halloween . Directed David Gordon Green and co-written the script next to Scott Teems and Danny McBride Based on the characters created by John Carpenter and Debra Hill , Situation that It is repeated in Halloween Kills , but with a very different result.

What happened? Although we are facing an immediate continuation of what happened in that film (and in the central episode of this new trilogy that will be closed in 2022 with the premiere of Halloween Ends ), the tone changes completely. The subtle references, the search for atmospheres and, why not say, elegance in narration.

In halloween kills there is a very different will to reach the viewer: the unfortunate lovers are sought, above all, the first delivery of the tape recovering characters, situations and the character s mythology but also He throws himself from a humor that sometimes brushing the astraneada snatching the film the ability to transcend beyond hemoglobin and self -omening .

Laurie Strode , her daughter Karen and her granddaughter Allyson stop at Michael Myers and burn the house to end it definitively but the masked killer is still far from its end.

While they are served by an ambulance, firefighters are presented in the house and Myers are released from fire, watering corpses Haddonfield . However, the people of the place begins to get rid of the situation and, spurred, by an old-way of the serial killer, they decide to plant him face to the monster.

The title says it all: Halloween Kills . So this movie is a great collection of violent deaths Of all kinds that a hair is not cut and has, yes, an adjusted and well sound band composed by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter and Daniel A. Davies It brings us back in time and gives you a layer of extra texture to the nostalgic staging.

Jamie Lee Curtis It looks pretty less than in the previous movie, since he has to recover from his wounds and is reserved since everything is tied for the final episode, once it was shown that can not be defeated absolute badly in a simple or rational way .

And it is that, while Michael Myers is the person s personification of the SACO , it is also no longer the reason that drives massive fear and therefore spruple one of the oldest weapons of humanity: panic, which In turn transforms us into monsters comparable to Myers himself.

That game of mirrors (show an incredible ricarious killer with which however we equate ourselves if we react for fear of viscerally) is one of the key points of a film that has sound problems in the assembly, especially in its final third, But that finds its biggest problem in exploiting a sense of humor that aims to be hooligate and is often out of place .

Eye to the revelations of some secondary characters, because there is a flashback (for the delight of the lovers of the saga) that makes us have a very particular perspective on the motivations of one of the STRODE allies.

In summary accounts, halloween kills is an entertaining film that could have pointed higher, but it seems to get away excessively of what was proposed three years ago, as if somehow a change of course will be sought Renouncing on the way to truly terrifying us thinking about the barbarities that we are able to do.

It is, to some extent a product designed for the stainful fan of halloween that is not in search of something new but to tackle finding more than what you have always liked: more Deaths, more blood, more characters rescued from the beginnings (some were children in the original film such as Tommy Doyle, Lindsey Wallace or Leigh Brackett, among others) and, in short, more of the same.

It is not a catastrophic and irreparable disaster, but a second episode for one of the most iconic villains of all the times that involves a spice. It is lawful that we expected another thing.
