What in the hell? It was not a copycat in H20.
If you read my other comments, I have commented that is what works for me. I just can't buy into Myers as being alive, not after that inferno and his burning corpse at the end of part II.
The timelines messing is what has made this series a convoluted mess. I attempted to watch
Halloween - '18
again the other day and got 10mins in and had to shut it off. I hated the start, (what is with the close up of the reporter's eyes?), the asylum scene was all bright, presented dull and unscary, and as soon as JLC appears like a grey haired and wacky granny, I rolled my eyes and gave up.
It went through the motions of a stupid script, it made reference to other Halloween films when it was supposed to ignore what had gone before, the characters were ****e and at least
Halloween Kills - '21
opened with a Halloween vibe and atmosphere.
Even Zombie's
Halloween - '07
reboot that I am not fond of was better.
The Laurie connection thing may get more of push in the next installment, but the sister thing in part 2 worked just fine and made more sense to me.

I gave it a second watch last month too and that line the father said about the peanut butter was so f'n cringey.

I may attempt again to watch the whole thing. The first time was painful enough to sit through all the way and I wasn't scared once.
And what was with the inflating pumpkin in the opening credits sequence? If it was supposed to signify a re-emergence of Halloween films, it was preposterous….

That is why 4,5,H20, Resurrection and the new **** are all pointless Myers films, because he died at the end of part II. H20 only gets the kudos is does from me because of its excellent presentation.

The Jason movies have by far more continuity errors than anything in Halloween franchise.
In Jason Takes Manhattan, Jason melted in toxic waste. In the next movie, he's fully formed in the opening scene, with no mention of this.
You can't accept Michael surviving a fire, but can accept Jason surviving a melting to nothing? At least Halloween addressed this saying Michael survived it, but Friday the 13th doesn't even address it. They ignore it.
Jason X came out before Freddy vs. Jason, but chronologically, it came after. There's no mention of his fight with Freddy, or him escaping Hell. The last movie before this, we saw Jason sent to hell.
Jason had long hair in II and had the mountain-man look. He's bald in III and wearing different clothes. Apparently Jason got a spiffy haircut and went shopping at Carhart from gift cards he found in the pocket of one of his victims.
And in II, we last see Jason crashing through the window to attack Ginny, not knowing where Paul is. Why didn't III pick up from this moment instead of introducing all new characters? WHERE'S PAUL? WHERE'S GINNY?
Why didn't they ring the telekineses girl in the Final Friday to assist them in killing Jason? It's almost like she never existed. Why keep starting over with new characters!?

I see the Friday movies as more feasible in the sense that they just changed Jason's appearance due to make-up technologies, (they did the same to Klingons in Star Trek), and they killed Jason off in part 4. It was a Jason imposter in part 5 and Jason then became a zombie resurrected in part 6. Anything goes with this fantasy scenario.
They didn't go down this track with Myers, he was still in human realm, although part 5 and 6 had some convoluted plot line that I can't really recall.

Because the entire concept of Friday the 13th is about a demonic spirit taking revenge on selfish sex crazed teens. It resurrected Jason Voorhees corpse and uses it.
And that's it. As Jason,'s corpse complete with hockey mask- it tries to eliminate as many as sexually active people as possible at that camp in the woods and then other places like in cities and in space.
Why didn't they ring the telekineses girl in the Final Friday to assist them in killing Jason? It's almost like she never existed. Why keep starting over with new characters!?

That this movie was made to symbolize Michael Myers as "White Rage" but it backfired spectacularly
Kills cross dresser kid
Kills annoying black couple
Kills gays living in his house
You gonna cry now that I'm here Kuat?
You better grow eyes in the back of your head, you horned piece of ****, because I'm not gonna sleep until worms are crawling up your foam-rubber ass! I'm goin' on safari motherfucker! SAH-FAR-I!
