  Got into an argument with a couple of 16 year old students of mine about how most of them have the attention span of fruit flies with ADHD and that most modern media seems to cater to their sugar rush needs causing them to lose appreciation for the power of simplicity.

  They disagreed.

  I showed them the opening scene of Halloween.

  That shut them up.

  John Carpenter putting the original Thing on a TV in this movie only to make his own Thing a few years later is peak foreshadowing

  When exposed, he only pauses.

  It's nothing new to note that the horror in many slashers--especially this one--are women's horrors. Stalking, sexual violence, threats to children, threatening phone calls, these are products of patriarchy that women--whether we like it or not--are saddled with facing. In better societies, reproductive labor is shared, but here, under capitalist patriarchy, women (or even just those classified as women) are coerced into these roles. And so we are subject to men's obsessions, men's brutality, men's lust, men's need to control. Again, whether men like it or not, whether men concede to the coercion or not, capitalist patriarchy coerces them into those roles. They aren't "natural." They aren't innate. They aren't unavoidable. But they are there,…

  It's Halloween night, about a month before JFK went to Dallas, and a small child named Michael brutally butchers his older sister. He's sent to the asylum, and he's supposed to stay locked up forever. However, 15 years later he escapes, and guess where he goes? Yup, back to the scene of the crime. This time, Michael has his eye on a trio of teenage girls. Why is he paying such close special attention to a very young Jamie Lee Curtis? Who taught him to drive? Why does his mask look like James T Kirk met a can of spray paint? John Carpenter's Halloween is pure horror. It proves you don't need tons of blood, kills, or a big budget,…

  The holiday of Halloween is more than just a night of candy and harmless pranks. As consumerist tendencies grow and expand financially, Halloween has become not only a celebratory day of the internal desire to change and shift, but a gigantic season in and of itself. Costume stores open as early as late July and decorations are everywhere, appearing in Grocery stores and gas stations just as much as the local retail shop. As a result, the mood of autumn and the spooky turn into the Halloween season comes as early as late-August. I’m not complaining. Halloween allows for a specific and almost indescribable aura to enter the air, floating and observing as it alters neighborhoods and triggers something…
