Just nakedly evil, destroying the planet to line the pockets of a minuscule handful of abject psychopaths and calling it ‘investment in our future’. Joe Biden has betrayed or abandoned literally every promise he made during his campaign, but his environmental policy has been particularly disastrous, characterized by deregulation, the expansion of drilling, fracking, and refining, and the neutering of the NEPA to allow for massive contamination of wetlands and other protected areas.

I dig RLM, and I like seeing what they thought of movies I’ve already watched, so I’ll definitely give that one a view once I track down the next few in the series.

Thanks, I’ll be posting them here, as well as to my Letterboxd and a few other forums. If you haven’t read them already, you can find my reviews of the other Halloween movies (and others) here.

I’m watching them all before the 31st. I am prepared for the high-water mark to be behind me at this point. I remember enjoying H20, but I saw it so long ago that that impression means nothing. I’ve heard good things about the most recent reboot trilogy, but I’ll have to make it through Rob Zombie-land before I get there.

Ha! I’m glad you appreciated it :-)

It’s a shame they don’t use this song in the film. Most likely due to how much this one leans into the 1980’s techno-thriller tropes, using such an iconic 60’s song might have clashed with that theme, although I’m sure a good director could do it in a way that worked.

The only one without Michael Myers in it is your favorite? I don’t hate 3, but I don’t understand the appeal either.

I was also distracted by how much Christopher Lambert looks like Thomas Jane (The Punisher, Deep Blue Sea) in this. They are nearly identical, apart from the tips of their noses, and it’s weird. I love seeing actor doppelgangers like that, especially when they play similar roles like these two guys frequently do.

This is what it is like to live under Fascism. It’s been like this the whole time, but for the first time in history the victims of genocide are able to broadcast their lived reality directly to the Western populace, largely via TikTok, and that makes maintaining the facade that the ‘Liberal, Rules-Based World Order’ is anything other than the continuation of violent imperialism much harder.

If you are in a situation where needing to barricade your door to prevent your parent’s entry is a regular occurrence, it is probably time to involve child protective services. You don’t need to give details of your situation to strangers on the internet, but I would highly encourage you to go to a trusted friend or family member’s home and contact the authorities.
