Welcome, horror fans, to another spooky installment of *The Rotten Horror Picture Show*! Now, before we dive into the blood-soaked, mask-wearing madness, I have to admit—I'm a little… well, *disoriented* by the *Halloween* franchise at this point. So much so, I'm starting to wonder if *Michael Myers* himself is the one messing with our heads. Here's the deal: in this special episode, Clay and Amanda have decided to *revisit* their original coverage of *Halloween 2018*—which, to be fair, is an *excellent* choice, because that movie is a big deal in the *Halloween* timeline... I think. You see, it's the one where Laurie Strode (played by Jamie Lee Curtis) is back, fighting to survive after all these years. But wait—didn't they already fight back in *Halloween H20*? And wasn't there another Laurie vs. Michael showdown in *Resurrection*? But *Halloween 2018* ignores *those*, right? And now we're supposed to pretend *those* never happened? *But* isn't there also this new *continuity* in the mix—where *Halloween Kills* comes right after *Halloween 2018* but… *not* after *Halloween 2*? And then there's the *whole* thing about *Halloween Ends*, which is definitely the end, but… I'm pretty sure they said that about the last one too. So, anyway, Clay and Amanda are here to remind us how all this started by revisiting *Halloween 2018*. They're giving us the rundown before they drop their *Halloween Kills* episode on Patreon later this month. But first—please, someone, for the love of sanity—help me figure out which timeline we're in now. Is this the one with *Danny McBride*, or the one with *Busta Rhymes*? I guess we'll find out soon enough!Head over to www.patreon.com/thepenskyfile to listen to all the other Halloween episodes!

In this episode of The Whole Damn Enchilada, we dive deep into Rob Zombie's brutal and controversial reimaginings of Halloween with his 2007 and 2009 films. We start by discussing Zombie's unique approach to Michael Myers' backstory, examining how he gave the character a traumatic childhood and explored his psychology in a way no previous Halloween film had attempted. There's a spirited debate on whether this gritty origin story adds depth to Michael's character or strips away the mystique that made him terrifying. As we shift to Halloween II, the conversation gets intense, focusing on how Zombie took even bolder risks with surreal imagery, heavy symbolism, and a raw portrayal of trauma through Laurie Strode's character. We discuss the divisive choices he made in expanding the scope of Michael's inner world and the brutality of his kills. Throughout, we touch on memorable performances, the unique stylistic choices, and Zombie's overall impact on the franchise. We wrap up by debating where these films stand in Halloween history—whether they're misunderstood masterpieces or entries that took the series too far into grim territory. This episode's full of heated opinions, dark humor, and an in-depth look at two of the franchise's most divisive installments.
In this episode of The Whole Damn Enchilada, you dive into a double-feature review of Halloween H20: 20 Years Later and Halloween: Resurrection, tackling two films that took the Michael Myers saga in very different directions. The discussion kicks off with Halloween H20, exploring how it brought back Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode in a high-stakes showdown with Michael after two decades, and how the late '90s horror aesthetic and themes of trauma added depth to the series. You might touch on the Scream-inspired influences and the return to a more grounded approach compared to the supernatural elements of previous sequels. As you shift to Halloween: Resurrection, the tone of the episode might become more critical. There's likely a conversation on the choice to kill off Laurie Strode early on, the bizarre direction of a reality-TV setup, and Busta Rhymes' memorable one-liners and martial arts showdown with Michael. You'll dive into fan reactions to the film, perhaps talking about how Resurrection's tone and style made it polarizing.
Halloween has a complex and multifaceted legacy, intertwining themes of fear, adolescence, and societal commentary. The exploration of the concept of the 'Final Girl,' epitomized by Laurie Strode, played by Jamie Lee Curtis. Laurie's character represents resilience and survival, challenging traditional gender roles often depicted in horror films, and her casting was just a simple publicity stunt really. Her mother was the original scream queen, Janet Leigh, and Psycho's DNA is woven throughout this movie in more ways than one...John Carpenter and Debra Hill crafted a narrative for Halloween that goes beyond simple scares, incorporating deeper messages about innocence, morality, and the unpredictability of evil. Carpenter's innovative filming techniques, such as the use of point-of-view shots that enhance the sense of being hunted, a tactic that has become a staple in horror storytelling, leading Michael Myers to becoming the granddaddy of slashers, and the villain to end all villains.Halloween resonated with audiences, and the growing popularity of horror as a genre, and it remains not only a beloved classic but also a significant work that continues to inspire and provoke thought about the horror genre and society's fears.And it all started with the idea of murdering babysitters...

One of the most polarizing horror directors, M. Night Shyamalan, is back with a new thriller starring Laurie Strode's son… errr, Josh Hartnett! But did this concert-within-a-movie bring on the thrills or stir up the groans? Tune in as we break down “Trap” — from all that music (from M. Night's daughter) to all those escapes, and that ending twist that really wasn't that big of a twist.

What's up, dudes? Happy Halloween! Yes, it's October 31, All Hallows Eve, and that means we're talking about the Urtext of horror slashers, “Halloween” and its network television debut. There are frights and jumps, and many deaths from unsuspecting teenage babysitters. It's such a monumental movie that it spawned a multiversal franchise spanning 45 years. Halloween is an iconic slasher film written by John Carpenter and Debra Hill, and released on Oct 25, 1978. Starring Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Pleasance, it introduced us to the Shape, Michael Audrey Myers, who was committed to a sanitarium for murdering his teenage sister on Halloween night when he was a child. Fifteen years later, he escaped and returned to his hometown, where he stalked teenager Laurie Strode and her friends. Michael's psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis pursued him with the intention of ending the evil for good.In 1980, NBC purchased the television rights to Halloween for about $3 million. "Halloween" aired on television for the first time in October 25, 1981. NBC's Standards and Practices censored certain scenes, much to the chagrin of Carpenter and Hill. This unfortunately resulted in the movie being too short to fill the two-hour time slot, and so Carpenter filmed about twelve minutes of additional material while he was making "Halloween II." The newly filmed scenes include Dr. Loomis at a hospital board review of Michael Myers. Dr. Loomis also talks to a then-6-year-old catatonic Michael at Smith's Grove. Loomis also examines Michael's abandoned cell after his escape from the Smith's Grove facility, seeing the word "Sister" scratched into the door. Finally, Carpenter added a scene in which Lynda comes over to Laurie's house to borrow a silk blouse before Laurie leaves to babysit, just as Annie telephones asking to borrow the same blouse. Funnily enough, Laurie's hair is hidden by a towel, since Curtis had a much shorter hairstyle than she had worn in 1978.Halloween became the model for countless slasher films, and, while many have tried, none have quite captured its raw, thrilling perfection. Indeed, Michael Myers is one of cinema's greatest villains! So grab your ghost costume, pack your revolver, and hunt down this episode on the "Halloween" NBC premiere!Check us out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Totally Rad Christmas Mall & Arcade, Teepublic.com, or TotallyRadChristmas.com!

Look out for Ghost Mama and avoid death-magnet Laurie Strode because we are talking about Rob Zombie's much maligned Halloween 2 (2009). C/W: the dog dies. The film has problems, but we're fond of its all-star cast (Brea Grant! Margot Kidder! Nurse Octavia Daniels!), as well as the film's surprisingly nuanced consideration of Final Girl PTSD. Plus: MVP Danielle Harris and Annie's powerful death scene, human caricature Dr. Loomis, a misogynistic strip club scene, and all of the changes that makes the Director's Cut an improvement over the Theatrical Cut.

We decided to release this month's bonus episode on our main feed, as we discussed a film that's just too iconic not to share with all our listeners. “Halloween” (1978) is credited with launching the golden era of slasher films, the career of Jamie Lee Curtis, and must have made life suck for anyone named Michael Myers. Tune in to hear us break down every scene, every character, every kill, every moment of heavy breathing, and why it's Matt's favorite film of all time.
PUBLIC VERSION. Actress Scout Taylor-Compton (Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN 1 & 2, THE RUNAWAYS, WICKED LITTLE THINGS, NASHVILLE, BURY THE BRIDE, and more) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen in the ArieScope Studio for a lively, laugh filled, and extremely NSFW conversation about her career journey. From growing up around a mortuary where she caught her first glimpse of… well, you'll hear… to how wanting to meet Mario Lopez played a role in her becoming a child actress… to the Uncle who used to scare her with a Michael Myers mask… to how sex is depicted in modern day cinema and television and the precautions that Hollywood has been implementing to try and make sets feel safer… to why the industry could greatly benefit from offering actors some sort of assistance in coming back OUT of especially traumatizing roles that they have just spent weeks or months immersing themselves in… to why method actors can sometimes go too far with their process and the drag that they can sometimes be on a production… to the audition process she went through in landing the role of “Lita Ford” in THE RUNAWAYS… to her experience playing “Laurie Strode” and how she dealt with the initial comparisons to Jamie Lee Curtis that HALLOWEEN franchise fans began making before she had even shot a frame of the film… to some of the major roles that got away and how she learned to roll with the many rejections that every actor faces over the course of their career… to whether or not she plans to step into the director's chair and SO MUCH MORE… this personal and brutally honest conversation between three friends is one that will surely have you laughing just as much you're learning about Scout's experiences in front of the camera (so far)! Dr. Arwen hears from a listener who took years of MOVIE CRYPT advice to heart and pivoted to find themselves living their best creative life in a heart warming and inspiring “Hollywood Therapy” segment, Adam meets his Mom's biggest fan in Sacramento, and Joe tests the boundaries of his friendship with Adam in an effort to save himself 95 cents in this incredibly entertaining (and sometimes raunchy) conversation.
On this episode, the guys go back to Haddonfield one more time to chat about the conclusion of David Gordon Green's (overly?) ambitious horror trilogy, Halloween Ends! Should they have front-loaded the film with Michael and Laurie and gotten them out of the way first, instead of leaving it for last? How fabulous do the kills continue to be in these more recent films? And yikes, Cory getting bullied by the marching band kids is pretty hilarious! PLUS: Heed this film's warning and never, ever turn off a screening of John Carpenter's The Thing mid-way through! Halloween Ends stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Andi Matichak, Rohan Campbell, Will Patton, Michael Barbieri, Destiny Mone, Joey Harris, Marteen, Michele Dawson, Keraun Harris, Kyle Richards, Jaxon Goldberg, and James Jude Courtney as The Shape; directed by David Gordon Green.
