Happy Halloween 🎃!

 

I had a nice Halloween today. It was overcast here and a bit chilly, but when I went for a walk in my nearby park, there were so many leaves and pine needles on the little asphalt path I take, it definitely felt like fall. I took the day off and just enjoyed the day. My teenager kids came in on Friday with pumpkins so I carved jack-o'-lanterns which I'll add in this post and later watched Halloween as part of Joe Bob Briggs' Halloween Hootenanny, that happened just after the release of the 2018 film.

So many YouTube takes on the entire Halloween franchise, lots of posts about the most recent film, which my wife liked and daughter loved, and every kind of video and Letterboxd review imaginable I've read and watched this month and up to October. I'm absolutely burned out and can say assuredly that I completely embrace retiring anything related to John Carpenter and Debra Hill's classic 1978 horror film. Let Myers truly stay dead for a while...pretty please?
