Halloween H40: SO bad
Halloween H40 (Which was also another name for Halloween 2018) is a fan made short film featuring everyone's favorite masked slasher.
It tells the story of Myers breaking from incarceration (On Halloween of course) and going on a killing spree. Not much of a killing spree though as the film stands at 16 minutes inclusive of credits
With a tiny cast and led by two children the whole thing is amateurish. I know what you're thinking, it's a fan made film so it's obviously going to be right? Just because it's made cheap doesn't mean it needs to look terrible and certainly doesn't mean that the cast need to be so awful.
The two child leads are the absolute bottom of the barrel and have no place in front of a camera. Surely they could have just got doing take after take until they delivered something even remotely bearable?
It's one of those times I was very glad the thing was so short as if this had been a feature movie I'd have struggled to manage it.
Maybe I'm being harsh but I've seen plenty of great fan made films and ultimately if you're going to do something at least do it to some standard.
The Good:
Nod to Season of the Witch
The Bad:
Haddonfield suddenly being in England is dumb
Awful child actors
Death scenes are terrible
Laughable finale, no seriously I laughed
