‘The Late Late Show’ gives ‘Halloween’ the ‘Making the Murderer’ treatment. 

There has been a lot of hype around the new remake/sequel hitting theaters this weekend.  ‘Halloween’ (2018) basically retcons all of the films in the horror franchise after the 1978 original directed by John Carpenter. This new film is directed by David Gordon Green off a screenplay with contributions from Danny McBride, with Carpenter helping to refresh the iconic music score and help produce the entire project. Jamie Lee Curties reprises her role from the original as a now paranoid mother spending the last 40 years to prepare for this epic confrontation with the masked Michael Myers.  So what do the trusted movie reviewers of Youtube think? Note these reviews below are not spoiler-heavy.

These reviews are mixed in their praise but the consensus feels like it delivers on callbacks to the orginal with scares, well-toned violence, and overall creepiness.
