On this month's spooktacular WLM, the guys are chatting about one of their all-time faves, John Carpenter's OG Halloween! How drunkenly annoying is Loomis to anyone and everyone he encounters in the film? How much butter did Annie spill on her shirt to necessitate doing laundry? And how many of these Haddonfield parents are out getting shitfaced at Halloween parties? PLUS: Michael becomes gleefully chatty whenever he's noshing on dog!

 Halloween stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasance, Nancy Loomis, P.J. Soles, Charles Cyphers, Kyle Richards, Brian Andrews, John Michael Graham, Nancy Stephens, Arthur Malet, and Nick Castle as The Shape; directed by John Carpenter.

Eric is the only person in the world who agrees with me on murder houses

Finbarr Heather

The mask they used actually WAS the eyeless Shatner one used in 'The Devil's Rain

Sara Syd

From what I'm reading, the same mould was used to make a commercially sold Kirk mask which then became the first Myers mask. It's not literally the mask from The Devil's Rain.

Sara Syd

The only fact is that it's a movie

Watch_N_Rewatch

I cannot fucking wait to listen to this ! Spooktacular rules 🤘

Zora McBride

This movie has never really grabbed me; I've only seen it once or twice. About to have a tall glass of water and give it another go with WHM as a nightcap, woo!! Can't wait for the new commentary!

Super-Roboto

I think Michael sitting alone and eating dog while having a pretty engrossing conversation with himself is my new favorite WHM character. Strong second to Cat-Hotdog enthusiast Louie Anderson.

Zane Magers

H Kills got better for me one I saw the angry mob as just a out of control Loomis, except they don't think clearly, rage blinds them more than it even did to Loomis. Thanks for the episode guys!!

Kyle Patterson

I had a cousin who swallowed a nail on purpose once as like an act of defiance to his parents. Yes, he was and still is an idiot.

James

"We hired a guy that looks like Richard Dreyfuss" lol.

Robin Fry

Loomis is to Michael Myers what Yoko Ono is to Mark David Chapman

Harken412

Did anyone else call mischief night goosie night? I moved to a town in north NJ and they called it goosie night there, is that a hyper local thing?

Smaug

Hard pass on the fat guy tongue and lip smacking asmr for 10 min for me here. Rest of the episode was great

Daniel Hood

This movie has an added joy factor for me because Carpenter uses the names of places in my home county where he went to school for this town.

Tim O'

Pretty sure that's what Carpenter was going for

Melissa Benjamin

Where I live we have always called it Cabbage Night.

Beer City Media

This is an all timer. Michael chewing dog singing to himself super cut asap

Nicholas Knecht

I'm in the same camp Zora. I respect the hell out of Carpenter and The Thing is one of the greatest movies ever imo, but this movie always fell flat with me.

Jamie

Was “Lonnie get your ass away…” really not brought up?!?

Alexander Farr

Does anyone else think that WLM is actually harder for the guys to do and pull off? You want to actually talk about the qualities of the movie without diving into the weeds of technical stuff too much while also find a way to laugh at the movie without diminishing the positive slant to the discussion. I still think the perfect version of this was A New Hope from a few years ago. Loved this.

Jessica

Love love love this 🔥

Ducky Irving

Pretty sure they referenced that lol. Didn’t Steve call it the best line of the film?

Jamie

Ok a good excuse to go back and relisten :)

Craig

I don’t know if it was deliberate but I was getting major John Candy vibes from that version of Mike Myers

Beatrix

This movie is a masterpiece. For me personally, I usually give the title of “greatest slasher” to the original Friday the 13th (1980) but revisiting Halloween always makes me think twice. Who knows maybe Psycho is the greatest slasher. I love this pod so much!

Kori Celeste

I had to do patreon again for more of that magnificent Loomis voice. Yes we all know it's the trickster but that just makes it even funnier.

Manny

Loose loomis here, that was excellent howard!
