Halloween (2018)
Description
There's a reason we're supposed to be afraid of this night. This week PJ and Derek are joined by special guest Bug as they revisit Haddonfield to dissect David Gordon Green’s Halloween (2018). In this episode, they explore how this film reimagines Laurie Strode not as a victim, but as a survivor shaped by trauma, its bold retconning of the franchise mythology, and the return of Michael Myers as a shape of pure evil. 📺
The last time we heard from Bug was for our discussion on John Carpenter's Halloween (1978).
