Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later (1998)

Jan 22, 06:37 AM

Trick or Treat. Kill or Die. It’s That Time of Year Again. The Apocalypse Video Halloween retrospective is back, and this time we’re about to see one hell of a family reunion. It’s Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later!

“Someone didn’t go to Yosemite…”

The year is 1998. After twenty years and five sequels, the Halloween franchise needed a shot in the arm if it was to compete with the likes of Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Enter returning Halloween veteran Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Williamson, and the scariest element of all – Harvey Weinstein – to show us all that blood truly is thicker than water.

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me for this blood soaked family reunion are fellow horror fans and Hillcrest Academy dropouts, Nick “Immortan Hoof”, Mike, Jackie, and special guest: Janna.

Topics of discussion in this episode include the emerging trend of sweeping select entries in a franchise under the rug; we wonder why the producers felt the need to leave all of the rejected Michael Myers masks in the finished film; and finally, after a brief peek at the trivia, we learn that legally evil can-not die.
