#john carpenters halloween
i’m just saying don’t be surprised if the next time you see jamie lee it’s a fifth tuesday
halloween (1978) // black christmas (1974)
the way laurie was smiling and twirling her hair while on the phone with annie??? the way she stopped when annie tried to actually set her up with a guy??? i think we all know where i am going with this one
happy thinkin’ ‘bout it thursday this thursday i am thinkin’ ‘bout how seemingly not a single parent spends halloween with their children in haddonfield like where are they all going and would this whole franchise have been avoided if mr. and mrs. myers had just driven michael to the neighborhood that gives out king size candy bars???
ok quick poll: did a detail-oriented would-be spree killer come into possession of a mechanic’s jumpsuit and a shatner mask and think “oh yeah, i can work with this” or did he just not have time to waste browsing and instead had to sigh and give himself his best tim gunn “make it work!”
spooky tuesday is a (now not so new!) podcast where we’re breaking down all of our favorite slashers, thrillers, monster movies and black comedies on the new scariest day of the week.
we’ve gotta admit it: we were a little nervous to dip our toes into one of the most famous franchises around, but with the end of april right around the corner, we knew it was time. we’re starting the six month countdown to the spookiest day of the year by celebrating the holiday’s half-birthday the most iconic way we know how: with halloween (1978). the film that launched michael myers to horror icon status and kicked off freaky friday star jamie lee curtis’s career as a scream queen, john carpenter’s classic knows just how to set the mood.
give spooky tuesday a listen on apple podcasts, spotify, iheart radio, or stitcher
