MOVIE DISCUSSION:

Remember that wild Halloween Kills episode from last year? Melvin & Dan are ready to rock your world with a roaring sequel episode on Halloween Ends, a finale so bonkers it blows our minds!\\xa0

Topics:\\xa0

  • (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 34-minutes talking about Werewolf by Night, the borderline TV-MA Marvel special on Disney Plus! (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)\\xa0
  • Melvin and Daniel talk around the movie before actually getting into specifics, because that's what\\xa0Halloween Ends has done to your hosts.\\xa0
  • Spoilers from the get-go, as Melvin and Daniel realize they can't discuss the movie much without getting into specifics.\\xa0
  • Daniel clocked it; it takes 40 minutes before Michael Myers even shows up in\\xa0Halloween Ends. You practically forget it's a Halloween movie by this point.\\xa0
  • Daniel, "This really feels like a strange episode, a Halloween-themed episode of Twin Peaks."\\xa0
  • In isolation, a lot of the new ideas throughout\\xa0Halloween Ends are neat, but the way all of them are used and balanced here is very poor.\\xa0
  • Melvin & Daniel agree: the diner scene is when the movie starts to lose them.\\xa0
  • There's actually a lot to appreciate and enjoy about\\xa0Halloween Ends, including its general mood and atmosphere. Unlike most movies, all three of these\\xa0Halloween features are exceptional at capturing atmosphere and look very sleek.\\xa0
  • As movie lovers, how we enjoy movies becomes much more complicated, as even the worst movies like Halloween Ends can become more enjoyable than the most competent ones.\\xa0
  • Melvin suspects the marketing, and the fact that this is a "trilogy finale" and not just another sequel with the expectation of\\xa0another sequel soon after really impacts the reception and enjoyment of\\xa0Halloween Ends.\\xa0
  • Melvin & Dan suspect\\xa0Halloween Ends will earn a strange reevaluation as a black sheep in the Halloween franchise, largely due to its extremely strange ideas.\\xa0
