After experiencing the last horror hunt in a small town, the hostess and the doctor thought that Miles was finally dead, but they did not expect that Miles just left a pile of grass, which declared that the nightmare of Halloween is not over yet.

After the first film made thousands of times profit, the word-of-mouth box office promoted the second film. After all, the end of the first film also left suspense, and the second film was born in this way. In fact, when most people regard the first part as a classic, they forget about the subsequent sequels. In fact, what the second part wants to say also continues the horror atmosphere of the first part, and the way of killing is improved, and because To be despised is just too few people watching.

Although this film is no longer directed by Carpenter, the soundtrack producer is still played by the father himself. In this Halloween, the soundtrack is very good, not only adding style to the first monotonous bgm, but also letting that The classic bgm made Miles the man who brought his own bgm, which must be attributed to Carpenter.

At the beginning, the standard bgm was replaced by the famous Mr. Sandman (Mr. Dreamer), which is very suitable for the scene, but like the pumpkin head at the beginning of the first part, the slow motion accompanied by Mr. Dreamer slowly greeted the audience, only this time The skin of the pumpkin head is thrown away, revealing the terrible skull. This innovation is very novel, and it can also drive the audience's fear of Halloween.

This film continues the time point of the previous murder. After Miles escaped, it also uses the first person to tell if Miles gets a weapon and then follows to find the heroine, after a long time in the first person There will be fatigue, but the film is also appropriately slowed down. Switching between the doctor and Miles, the first half is like a cat catching a mouse, but Miles is probably a cannibal mouse.

Through the hands of doctors, we also understand the characteristics of Miles. There is no conscience, irrationality, and even not a human being. In the last movie, Miles, who was sickened by humans, wanted to chase and kill the heroine. The Lord is Miles’s sister, and Miles was also ordered to hunt down his family. Not only his sister, but also his niece in the subsequent sequel. As for the birth of Miles, he can only go to the sequel to find , After all, it was also the emergence of the evil cult demon, which also explained why he could continue to kill with six shots in his body without breathing, and I won't elaborate on it here.

Similarly, everyone in the hospital was silently killed by Miles in the dark (you may wonder why the lights are not turned on, so am I)

Miles cut off the phone line when entering the hospital, which is also his standard style.

The security went to check the ground floor and was caught off guard by Miles.

The two men and women who cheated on love unfortunately ran into Miles when they wanted to be happy. The man was strangled to death and the woman was scalded to death. In the same film, this one also continued the rule of death for cheating.

And the nurse was stabbed to death directly behind when he went for rescue

The role of the male protagonist who likes the female protagonist is even more inexplicable. He accidentally falls in the blood pile. Although the male protagonist does not have many roles, it is also an important newly added role, but this is not well done. He said he was good to protect the heroine, but he fell straight without even touching Miles. He even made a loud noise to recruit Miles when he fainted. He was a very pig teammate. . This role is really optional and not very useful.

But the hostess became smarter. She knew Miles would find her. First, she pretended to be sick and deceived the nurses (so as not to send the head with them), and then deceived Miles with a pillow.

When the heroine escaped, there was a sense of "despair". When the heroine called the doctors loudly, she was powerless because of fear and pain, and Miles was still chasing after him. This scene is behind. You can also see the "Scream of Scream"

The chase scene in the middle was also very well done, and the atmosphere was very full. Miles didn’t come out suddenly and startled here, but he showed up there openly and walked slowly. This terrible "devil" just walked without stopping but unstoppable, and then Coupled with the classic bgm, it is easy to embark on the escape route with the heroine.

And Miles’ unyielding body or the real devil’s side is also fully manifested. He smashed through the glass door without fear. He even stood up again without breathing even after hitting a few shots, and he could walk out even if he was burned to death. Steps, these all show that he is really different from the demon body of ordinary people

After the doctor finally died with Miles, when he thought everything was over, the film left a suspense. In fact, it can be seen that Miles will come again in the subsequent sequel.

And the "Mr. Dreamer" released in the fog at the end is really suitable, which also means that the terrible nightmare has not disappeared, and it is still confusing and inevitable.

To say that the horror atmosphere created by this film is actually not inferior to the first part, but the rhythm of the first half is really slow, and the character logic behind is not very sufficient. In the sequel, the role of the doctor survived the raging fire. It’s really illogical. Similarly, each character in it always loves to act alone. This is called the lowest slot of a horror movie. It also appears completely in this Halloween. You can see that Carpenter wants to create The light is different from ordinary horror movies, but you will also see the real grooves of conventional horror movies. But fortunately, you may just need to fast forward the first half. The highlight of this film is also enough for you to sit down and watch this one and a half hour.

Miles, the classic killer, was born not only because of the bloody spurs in this movie, or the thrill of "death" in the first corner, and the favorite part of this killer is that he was dark on Halloween. Down, staring at his prey, and you don’t know the fear of having a pair of eyes looking at you all the time, setting your death date on a life-and-death book, as for how Miles was behind with his niece and daughter If the Lord continues to fight for his life, please wait patiently
