I hated what he did to "The Thing," had the potential to be the perfect adaptation of the great short story, and the only thing wrong was Carpenter fouling it up, the people splitting up after they have established who's who, the inconclusive ending when there can be no inconclusive ending. The world ends or it doesn't. But I'm crazy about Pleasance, and what you criticize seems to be the writing instead of Pleasance's performance.

(It's quite hard to get sarcasm across in words I suppose). I actually love <i>Halloween</i>- it is my favorite horror movie (not a April Fool's joke).Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11703547283751473482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-38825879090409066322010-04-01T20:03:37.330-07:002010-04-01T20:03:37.330-07:00Yahoo!

Yeah, the location was just ridiculous--nothing about it felt like autumn except the crappy same 50 leaves they kept throwing in front a fan. The killer is un-killable? Why? How? The girlie babble between the girls seems like they had no dialogue and were told to wing it. "I always forget my books. Who needs biology books? I don't need books..." Rambling, rambling, rambling chit chat. I have a theory that the reason this is so big was the concept of a masked killer which every Halloween people freak out when they see people in masks because you don't know who's behind it and the second reason it's a success is there just are only a tiny handful of Halloween night movies--why is that? How in the hell can the industry ignore the night that provokes the most fear? "Trick R Treat" was a horrible plot, but damn--it really recreated the Halloween night feel really well. So, until someone has the cajones to make a horror movie that takes place on Halloween night, we'll still play that same droning soundtrack and movie over and over again each year...Sharon Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13609356325356264202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-9152219894165004152010-04-01T19:40:54.266-07:002010-04-01T19:40:54.266-07:00Wow.
