Episode 145: Halloween H20 (1998)
Oct 13, 2021, 07:00 AM
Michael Myers AND Kevin Williamson in one episode? Oh that's right... we're going to the 90s for this one!
This week we cover the movie Anthony's been clamoring to discuss for the past three years, his favorite Halloween (aside from the original) and a movie that came at the apex of horror's post 80's revival: Halloween H20!
Join the team (with special guest Phil Acevedo) as they look at how Jamie Lee Curtis FIRST returned to the series, and how a passion project about trauma and alcoholism ultimately turned into a paycheck gig - but overseen by a post-Scream Kevin Williamson (although uncredited, interestingly). We discuss Josh Hartnett's hair, LL Cool J's erotic thriller side-story, some drafts of the story that ALMOST got made, and some good old comparisons with the Thorn Trilogy.
Can Anthony convince the other two hosts of this film's supposed greatness? FIND OUT!
Also, some of us ended up watching the edited for TV version so how about 5 stars for a dubbed Jamie Lee Curtis "What the frick, John?"
