I'm a huge Halloween fan and the new movie is getting great reviews. I completely forgot they had Thursday night showings so here I am awaiting to watch the movie in the theater. Pumped!

I'm curious what other pinsiders think of it as I know many of you love the series too. Give your reviews here - no spoilers.

Expectations are kind of high. I hope it delivers

So I just got back. I'm happy with it but disappointed too. My initial reaction was that they gave WAY too much away in the trailers. I know this is typical but man - I felt like almost all of the great parts were already noted in the trailer. That being said, it was entertaining and did have its spots but #1 and #2 still best it. Loganpinball - I agree with your summary. I would recommend people see it but go in with your expectations check.

EDIT I have been thinking more about this movie and decided to see it again late last night. I enjoyed it more on the second viewer. They did a good job with it - I would def recommend others seeing it. Movie seems to fly through and has some great set pieces (especially the 1 continous shot with Michael - could be one of the best scenes in the series). Stay until the end credits!

Quoted from Who-Dey:

I want to go see this movie as well but if it gets bad reviews i will probably just pass.

def see it. Worth it. It's one of the better ones. I'm still thinking about it today which is always a good sign.

There is one scene that is really out of nowhere but the movie gets right back to it....ultimately it's a good halloween which i haven't said in a long time.

I like it more the day after....

Nope but they have him speaking on tape and it's def not him some actor.

Stay past the end credits btw - I'm reading that something happens. I didn't. maybe a reason to see it again...haha

OMG - totally forgot to mention that there is a scene which pinsiders especially will appreciate!!!

After thinking about it for a day, I'm in the, "it was a good movie but with some flaws". Def happy with it though. They def made Michael scary again.

I thought the first Rob zombie was tolerable/borderline OK while the 2nd was hot garbage. This movie smokes both of those. I think it's better than any other halloween except 1 and 2. 2 is such a underrated movie. Felt like such a natural extension of the first.
