Halloween (2018)

Halloween (2018) returns the franchise to its roots with the first true sequel to the original film that looks to rewrite the worst parts of the franchise while creating a new canonical storyline. Focusing on the struggle between a wisened Laurie Strode and a grizzled Michael Myers, Halloween (2018) tries to have its cake and eat it too by offering the original characters a worthy ending while attempting to set up a new line of sequels. Chris and Eric have a spoiler-filled discussion on the overhyped entry in the franchise that seems to be able to do no wrong.
