Miramax Halloween Collection

H2O could be a standalone introduction to the franchise.

Curse of Michael Myers did not need to be made. Resurrection should not have been made.

The Watcher in the Woods

Remember when Disney made horror films? This movie nails spooky. If you get a hold of the DVD you have to check out the alternate ending.

Halloween Ends

I’m going to anger some people, but I really liked this one. I love man-made monsters. This could have been your standard throw-some-people-in-a-place-and-unleash-a-killer, but that’s already been done, like, 11 (don’t check my math) times in this franchise alone. It was a bold move to break from the formula and I appreciated it.

Scream: Chilling Adventures in the Science of Fear

An interesting look into the author’s mission to find, define, and explain fear.

Misc.

Pentel EnerGEL .05

I fill 3 composition book pages, front and back, each day. This pen lasted 8 days, which is admirable. It wrote smoothly to the very end. This one did not feel scratchy like a lot of other fine-tip pens.
