Why it’s HorroRated
The 2018 Halloween works because David Gordon Green and Jamie Lee Curtis decided to take Laurie Strode's forty years of trauma completely seriously. The confrontation the film builds toward is the most emotionally earned moment the franchise has produced since Carpenter's original. A legacy sequel that understood its responsibility.
Synopsis
The 2018 Halloween erases all sequels and works as a direct continuation of Carpenter's original, with Laurie now a grandmother living in a fortified property. David Gordon Green gives the confrontation between Laurie and Michael the weight of forty years rather than the mythology of the intervening films. Jamie Lee Curtis is excellent.
