Arghghujr, I swear I remembered there being an error for one shot in there where the wrong guy pushes Mikey in the climax. And that they punched up Busta's role as the hero after test screenings. Could be a Mandala effect, could be I woke up in a different universe.
It's kind of funny Jamie found this series stale and ready to end
twenty years ago. She's probably naively thinking the sweet release of death can make it finally end... but she doesn't know they're going to inject her with Dick Cheney Immortality Syrup. Or she just accepts her CGI puppet counterpart will carry on, until civilization collapses.
Oh god imagine if quantum immortality/qualia transference was real. And from her subjective perspective, when she "dies", she wakes up as a computer simulant of Jamie Lee Curtis and has to star in fifty cajillion Halloween movies per second. Now
there's a horror movie.
Here you go!
It does make me happy remembering bits of this still persist in my memory vortex. "Let's watch some ABC!" Ah...
Having character development in a slasher is beneficial, but that's rarely the concern to most viewers, probably myself included. Creative violent dispatch is paramount. The cast of replaceable teens is testament to said concern. Sex and violence rules the day!
I know, but still you need something to give yourself a competitive advantage if you want people to care for 30 years. If your monster is just another monster, it's a big eh. I respect Alien Resurrection a lot since besides schlock, what else could they do? Besides create that alternative Alien 3 movie.
It's really cruel to lean on one person like Curtis or Englund to carry six hundred movies on their backs : /
... this reminded me that Troma used to have a crapton of its movies on Youtube for free. I never watched Poultrygeist when I had the chance. The real monster, in the end, was me.
