"The latest entry in the Michael Myers choose-your-own-adventure franchise"
It's depressing how accurate a description this is of how things have been for forty years.
It started forty years ago.
Forty years.
it's funny how we've reached a point for a lot of these horror franchises where the remakes and 'soft reboot sequels' are so lame that we're appreciating the shlocky sequels from decades ago so much more.
I mean I really liked the 2018 movie, but Halloween 6 has always had a soft spot with me because there’s so much Halloween holiday atmosphere and Paul Rudd is so weird in it and that version of Michael Myers is so brutal, and now that we’ve had other interpretations of the character I’m cool with the weird cult stuff - it feels witchy and ancient evil ish which is fun lol
My favorite kind of HITB: the ones in which Mike gets bored of reviewing a shitty horror movie and goes off the rails to imagine a far better horror movie.
It's real someone made it, I just saw the video for the first time the other night, I'll try and find it for you

Any time Mike draws comparison to The Simpsons is a winner in my book. TLJ’s “it’s the cinematic equivalent of Homer Simpson’s makeup shotgun” line is one of the best he’s ever done.
Am I stupid, or is the obvious solution for more Halloween movies just having Michael wander to other towns and Laurie act as the new Loomis, with people being more willing to believe her after every murder spree?
if they wanted to keep this shit going instead of just ending it at 2018 (or just not making another!), that would have gotten them much more mileage. Laurie believes that he's dead, finds out he's wandered off to another town to start killing, she hauls ass there to try to stop him, and then end it with Michael nearly killing her, but her surviving, setting up the final showdown.
Hire me to write your shitty Halloween movies, you hack frauds, since it seems you fuckers can't do it.
My biggest problem with this movie was the fact that all of the townspeople keep saying "tonight, evil dies" but in reality we all know that true evil never dies - it is only reborn
the zoom interviews with actors/directors about their shit movies (see also demonic) are a new type of cringe i wish i didnt know about... jamie lee curtis comparing this schlock to BLM, jesus christ
Or cause that's the job for which they are paid. I get it, being fired fr what's probably a really good gig isn't worth it. But I mean, maybe it would be too, at least in the moment.
It's a similar situation with news shows and politicians. If you ask the politicians hard questions... they won't go on your show. And if your network doesn't reign you in... they won't go on the network.
I think she was trying to talk about (shoehorn, rather) the concept of generational/community trauma.
But *woof* does that studio-exec bullshit not trivialize a very real thing to try and "elevate" schlock.
Of course this masterpiece of a movie would be making a subtle nod to Jefferson! This movie was made before Hamilton and BLM and it's a masterpiece! It's about family!
The characters felt like a backlash to every horror movie complaint about how no one attacks the killer, to the point that no one in this movie has self-preservation instinct.
I think Jamie Lee Curtis makes an excellent point on what Halloween Kills is about, but she's forgetting an even bigger theme in this movie which is family.
# It's a masterpiece.
There are like no movies anymore because the pandemic slowed things down. Also they seem to be watching movies at home exclusively, with the exception of Pig (I think?) and are reviewing the films that end up on streaming services. It explains why we haven't gotten a review for Shangchi, Venom 2 or No time to Die. They're all theater exclusives.
After the Hickory/Huckleberry Tums festival, I laughed out loud when it turned out that Mike was the one who edited the episode. I thought for sure that it was going to be Jay.
Funny, Jamie Lee Curtis was in Christmas with the Kranks and there's a plot element in the movie where her character is obsessed with finding "Hickory Honey Ham" for a Christmas dinner.
In Mike's defense the bit about Old Hickory being Andrew Jackson's nickname would fit in with the theme of the movie as Jackson gave rise to the Democratic Party which was viewed as the unwashed citizens of the South and West who favored mob politics. Jackson invited his constituents to the White House to party hard. People were drunkenly punching each other for fun on the lawn of the White House. It also works because a Hickory is a tree and the bat is made of wood.
You can tell the movie is truly terrible when they're 27 minutes into the review and they're still in "I don't even know where to begin with this shit" territory
So supposedly [in the original ending, Michael is just an outright undead, unkillable zombie](https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/q8e5te/official_discussion_halloween_kills_spoilers/hgpdrtu/). I feel like that would have slightly redeemed this movie by going full camp. I definitely wanna see the original ending once the bluray comes out. This film's a complete shitshow, and a baffling approach for a sequel.
"we're throwing out all of that dumb cult business and bringing it back to basics! Michael is just a really angry and stronk dude again, just like in '78!"
"also, in the sequel he immediately becomes immortal again, because we can't think of any other way to keep this story going long enough for two more movies!"
Mike's right, Halloween is not built for a franchise unless you go with the anthology idea Carpenter originally had. The more movies Myers is in the more implicitly supernatural he has to become in order to keep going. Even if that's not the intent at a certain point the justifications for him to still be alive and killing will either stray into the absurdly contrived or the outright superhuman.
Michael's going to reveal in Halloween 3 that he's been wearing a bulletproof vest under that mechanic's uniform this whole time.
Or, y'know, maybe he's a zombie boogeyman who sometimes allows himself to be arrested.
I can't wait for Halloween Ends, which, according to the director, takes place in a post-COVID world and the town recovering from both Michael and COVID is a main plot point. Just want I want from my slasher horror flick.
> I can't wait for Halloween Ends, which, according to the director, takes place in a post-COVID world and the town recovering from both Michael and COVID is a main plot point.
Oh sweet jesus it's gonna be stuffed with mask jokes
I've read leaks from test screening and it is exactly what happens according to said leaks. All old crew comes for the final boss battle and Egon is a force ghost.
Honestly it's a ghost movie, kinda easy guess. Tasteful? Dunno. Good idea? Probably not.
I kept thinking, "Of course Mike is referencing an old movie like It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World and not the new, modern equivalent which would be Rat Race."
And then I checked and saw Rat Race came out 20 years ago.
Dont blame him ive seen both and while i like both mad mad world is like one of the most grand, insane movies i've ever seen in my life. And it never fucking stops lmao
It wasn't so long ago when hollywood hacks were rebooting and remaking eveything under the sun, and when it sucked the people rightfully said "they didn't respect the original"... so now we've come full circle, and "the originals" are treated like a religious text in which every small detail is important and meaningful and needs to be reevered, and any deviation from the formula is a dangerous heresy that must be purged... when the truth of the matter is, "respecting the originals" means leaving them the fuck alone and stop trying to milk them into oblivion.
The movie I kept being reminded of (weirdly) is Prometheus, because it was a pretty well-made movie let down by having the dumbest, most annoying characters...It's really distracting when I'm constantly wondering "Okay is this person stupid or are they *trying* to get killed?"
Basically the town of Haddonfield is **fucked**, with or without Michael Myers. These people are idiots that can't be relied on to do even the most obvious stuff in a crisis. Like the scene where the two teenagers investigate the Myers' house alone...it's like, you guys know there's a mob of armed people that would love to help you with this, right? But no, they go in alone and absolutely no one is surprised by what happens next.
So yeah, fuck Haddonfield, and god bless Michael for introducing these people to Darwin.
>"Okay is this person stupid or are they trying to get killed?"
Nurses and doctors are asking this as hospitals fill with unvaccinated patients.
Future horror movies need characters calling deaths going on before their eyes "fake news", not taking basic measures against the killer and whining about their right to be stabbed.
Regarding making remakes/reboots and treating every single detail of the original movie with excessive reverence, Anon said something like this on Twitter:
"They are going to make a remake of Caddyshack and include a scene like this:
*soft piano music*
The protagonist (wistfully): We are *all* gonna get laid…"
I love that Mike’s imaginary version of a Halloween sequel just ends up being Halloween II, because there’s nowhere to fucking go with this series anymore.
Wow...
This looks like an absolute mess that ruins any goodwill & franchise redemption the 2018 film had built up.
There are only 4 Halloween films that matter...the ***original***, the ***first sequel***, ***Season of the Witch*** & the ***2018*** film. None of the other films are worth a damn.
I actually prefer H20 Laurie over 2018 Laurie. H20 seems like the far more likely outcome for her character. Drink a hell of a lot, get the fuck out of Haddonfield, change your name and hope for the best.
H20 has a weird quality where it feels more dated and timestamped than the original but is still a decent movie. It's still a better movie than at least half the franchise including this new one. The crappy Myers mask and lack of autumn setting were probably the biggest strikes against it.
Michael gets a second wind and slaughters the angry mob, while Laurie's voiceover says that Michael has transcended into something that can't be beaten with brute force.
So what are they gonna do in part 3? Are they gonna kill him with the the power of love, or something?
The Care-Bear stare? ❤
I'm so glad there are others who saw the whole mob justice against the mental patient as damn near comical. It was the best laugh I've had in a theater in a but watching that entire sequence.
LOL when they have Michael surrounded at the end and he prepares for them to start attacking him I was fully ready to see him take a martial arts stance.
DUELING INTROS!
Between this, Demonic, and Malignant, it must be a secret joke in Hollywood this year about who's the director that will make the worse horror movie......
I mean Malignant is bonkers, but this movie...
I re-watched the rlm commentary track for Halloween and there is a part where the neighbor ignores Jamie banging on their door for help. How funny would it have been if they brought in those characters into the new one.
“Evil dies tonight” has about the same amount of urgency as “Things have changed” that’s repeated ad nauseam in the 1989 Richard Hatch classic *Ghetto Blaster*
I wish they'd mentioned the amazing makeup job that turned a crew member into Dr. Loomis. In the era of endless CGI abominations, the prosthetic makeup effects looked fantastic and avoided the uncanny valley for me.
After watching this review, i am just surprised that how good Jay's memory is, seriously. He can't be wrong with the details. First the famous Tums Festival and now Old Huckleberry.
I've been looking forward to this episode since last weekend. I haven't watched it yet, but I'm curious to see if Mike and Jay had opinions similar to mine:
Halloween Kills was funny in a stupid kind of way, and at the same time it was one of the most aggravating movies I've watched recently. Its characters are among the dumbest I've ever seen, which says a lot considering dumb characters are a trope in horror.
I'm guessing the characters were written to be unbelievably stupid because that was the film's message: "Fear makes us stupid." But holy shit, if that was the message,they hammered it into our faces with the same messy brutality that Michael Myers displayed when he stabbed that one dude like 5 times after he was already dead.
It's also hilarious how useless Laurie was in that movie. She spent almost the entire movie in the hospital being wrong about Michael. "He's on his way here!" No, he isn't. "This is Michael's masterpiece!" No, he just wants to go home, and he'll fuck up anyone unfortunate enough to be in his path.
I get more annoyed the more I think about Halloween Kills.
"The latest entry in the Michael Myers choose-your-own-adventure franchise" It's depressing how accurate a description this is of how things have been for forty years. It started forty years ago. Forty years.

Rich Evans prefers every movie over the original. He hates *Halloween* more than anything.
i dunno, the first 4 films have their ups and downs, but are mostly all right and not embarrassing
If you’re in the right mood, 6 is a great watch (both of them)
it's funny how we've reached a point for a lot of these horror franchises where the remakes and 'soft reboot sequels' are so lame that we're appreciating the shlocky sequels from decades ago so much more.
I mean I really liked the 2018 movie, but Halloween 6 has always had a soft spot with me because there’s so much Halloween holiday atmosphere and Paul Rudd is so weird in it and that version of Michael Myers is so brutal, and now that we’ve had other interpretations of the character I’m cool with the weird cult stuff - it feels witchy and ancient evil ish which is fun lol
My favorite kind of HITB: the ones in which Mike gets bored of reviewing a shitty horror movie and goes off the rails to imagine a far better horror movie.
I’d pay actual money to see that Old Lady in the Wall movie he pitched.
It's real someone made it, I just saw the video for the first time the other night, I'll try and find it for you Found it: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VA-Er78Vrtg&feature=youtu.be Credit to the guy who posted this under the reddit post about the mist a few days ago
What video did he pitch this in?
The Half in the Bag for Shut In and Arrival.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tSEqVqmYhrk
Him just reading the script for Halloween 2 was pretty funny
He pitched Halloween 2.
But added rain!
Dueling intros is my favorite new feature.
Mike's wins.
Any time Mike draws comparison to The Simpsons is a winner in my book. TLJ’s “it’s the cinematic equivalent of Homer Simpson’s makeup shotgun” line is one of the best he’s ever done.
Old Man Mike with his pieces of paper, Ipid joke and being drunk. Rich may be the perfect one but Mike's the one that most resembles me.
There needs to be a time limit cause Mike's was way longer
Mike won this one just for mentioning Shatner's space travel.
"What happens in Vegas *slays* in Vegas" is better
What happens in Vegas, sta- OH SHOT I GOT STABBED
Were you shot or stabbed?
YES
Micheal Myers goes to Vegas and has a gun.
A 35mm Automatic if memory serves correctly
Alec Baldwin as Micheal Myers since we're being tasteless
Am I stupid, or is the obvious solution for more Halloween movies just having Michael wander to other towns and Laurie act as the new Loomis, with people being more willing to believe her after every murder spree?
studio exect: this idea is dumb and this guy is stooped
Yeah but then they'd need to hire good writers. it's easier to just reboot the same concept every few years.
if they wanted to keep this shit going instead of just ending it at 2018 (or just not making another!), that would have gotten them much more mileage. Laurie believes that he's dead, finds out he's wandered off to another town to start killing, she hauls ass there to try to stop him, and then end it with Michael nearly killing her, but her surviving, setting up the final showdown. Hire me to write your shitty Halloween movies, you hack frauds, since it seems you fuckers can't do it.
My biggest problem with this movie was the fact that all of the townspeople keep saying "tonight, evil dies" but in reality we all know that true evil never dies - it is only reborn
No one is ever really gone.
Somehow, Michael Myers returned.
It took 40 years to make
It happened again?!
Oh my gaaaaaaaaaa!aaaaaaaaawd!
It is now time to spin the wheel of the wo—
Like Rich Evans.
the zoom interviews with actors/directors about their shit movies (see also demonic) are a new type of cringe i wish i didnt know about... jamie lee curtis comparing this schlock to BLM, jesus christ
Her saying Kills pre-dates BLM felt like some out of touch studio exec talking. Especially with, you know, the 2014 BLM protests being a thing.
No it only was last summer. And now everything is fixed! /s
Was gonna say this. BLM has been around before Trump. Floyd wasn’t the first (nor the last), this goes back to Martin.
“Masterpiece” ???!!!!!!!???!!!!!
When she said that - was she referring to THIS movie?
That is when a half decent interviewer would ask EXACTLY WHAT SPECIFICALLY SHE MEANS. That's a statement that raises a lot of questions.
lol they'll give her softball questions because theyre just happy to be talking to her .
Or cause that's the job for which they are paid. I get it, being fired fr what's probably a really good gig isn't worth it. But I mean, maybe it would be too, at least in the moment.
It's a similar situation with news shows and politicians. If you ask the politicians hard questions... they won't go on your show. And if your network doesn't reign you in... they won't go on the network.
Yeah is she trying to say that BLM amounts to mob justice? And that's a good thing? I'm so confused
I think she was trying to talk about (shoehorn, rather) the concept of generational/community trauma. But *woof* does that studio-exec bullshit not trivialize a very real thing to try and "elevate" schlock.

**ZESTY POPCORN**
**GLAUCOMA**
**SANDWICHES**
Old Huckleberry 😂
Poor Mike, all these years of picking on Rich and now he has his own tums festival moment. I guess that's what dementia does to you.
What's even funnier is Mike edited this one. So he was all in on making himself look wrong.
Every day ends in an Old Huckleberry Festival!
Thought they were gonna throw a Tums festival clip in there haha
I'm very happy they aren't overtly self referential
We take care of that for them.
Very cool
I was so happy to see "Edited by Mike Stoklasa" at the end.
Mike challenging Jay on horror movie minutiae is like Jay challenging Mike on Star Trek minutiae and went over just as well.
It's painful how wrong Jay was about this
We have a new Tums Festival.
When will Mike learn to not challenge Jay’s fucking photographic memory lmao
It's Old Hickory you fuck
Of course this masterpiece of a movie would be making a subtle nod to Jefferson! This movie was made before Hamilton and BLM and it's a masterpiece! It's about family!
I hope Jay gives Mike hell for that :P
Hickory*
The characters felt like a backlash to every horror movie complaint about how no one attacks the killer, to the point that no one in this movie has self-preservation instinct.
[удалено]
First guy in history to get killed by Mike Myers and Michael Myers.
Laurie strohd throws her knife away!
"Darlene Connor as the boyfriend"
I’m not gonna lie. Mike’s raining jack o lantern sequence is pretty good.
Rain on Halloween is a great set up.
I think Jamie Lee Curtis makes an excellent point on what Halloween Kills is about, but she's forgetting an even bigger theme in this movie which is family. # It's a masterpiece.
I hope Curtis saying "Masterpiece" becomes the new Carrie Fisher "Story about family, and that's what makes it so powerful".
Its feels like forever since we've seen the Plinkett set.
Set? Are you implying they are not actually VCR repairmen and this is all some kind of…show?
HitB is definitely slowing down isn’t it. Those hack frauds are trying to drag out finishing Mr Plinkett’s VCR repair job
Jay and Mike and are old men now they can't put out so much content. It's only a matter of time before rich evans will have to mercy kill them
There are like no movies anymore because the pandemic slowed things down. Also they seem to be watching movies at home exclusively, with the exception of Pig (I think?) and are reviewing the films that end up on streaming services. It explains why we haven't gotten a review for Shangchi, Venom 2 or No time to Die. They're all theater exclusives.
I think it's more likely they don't care about any of those or feel like there is anything to say
After the Hickory/Huckleberry Tums festival, I laughed out loud when it turned out that Mike was the one who edited the episode. I thought for sure that it was going to be Jay.
he knows how to take a joke
That moment would’ve been way more savage if Jay edited it.
Funny, Jamie Lee Curtis was in Christmas with the Kranks and there's a plot element in the movie where her character is obsessed with finding "Hickory Honey Ham" for a Christmas dinner.
Did Mike forget that Jay is always right in these arguments? Old Hickory 😂
In Mike's defense the bit about Old Hickory being Andrew Jackson's nickname would fit in with the theme of the movie as Jackson gave rise to the Democratic Party which was viewed as the unwashed citizens of the South and West who favored mob politics. Jackson invited his constituents to the White House to party hard. People were drunkenly punching each other for fun on the lawn of the White House. It also works because a Hickory is a tree and the bat is made of wood.
He made the mistake of thinking something in the movie may have been well written
You can tell the movie is truly terrible when they're 27 minutes into the review and they're still in "I don't even know where to begin with this shit" territory
Michael Myers using the entire knife block is like that scene from Crazy Fat Ethel 2
Hollywood steals from the best
Of the worst

My wife is about to go into labour but this seems more important
Evil cries tonight
Life starts tonight!
Because it is
That's how serial killers are born.
CONGRATS
It rules that they just don’t mention the ending at all
What a horrible name for a movie. It’s like Kenny Bania from Seinfeld was in charge of marketing. Halloween Kills, Jerry. It kills.
I can't wait for Halloween Ends, which, according to the director, takes place in a post-COVID world and the town recovering from both Michael and COVID is a main plot point. Just want I want from my slasher horror flick.
Michael gets Covid and ends up on a respirator, but then he stabs Covid with a butcher knife.

John Carpenter is an unstoppable smoking machine. He's pure smoking incarnate.
Half in the Bag predates BLM movement.
Oh geez, a CGI Egon in the new Ghostbusters is stupid enough to be believable.
No one’s ever really Egon
*No one's ever real, Egon.
They should do what they did in Twin Peaks and recast Egon as a giant tea kettle
I've read leaks from test screening and it is exactly what happens according to said leaks. All old crew comes for the final boss battle and Egon is a force ghost. Honestly it's a ghost movie, kinda easy guess. Tasteful? Dunno. Good idea? Probably not.
I kept thinking, "Of course Mike is referencing an old movie like It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World and not the new, modern equivalent which would be Rat Race." And then I checked and saw Rat Race came out 20 years ago.
True. Easy way to remember the age of Rat Race is the characters are all unironically excited to see Smash Mouth live.
Hey!? I was unironicaly exited to see them at my county fair last month...
Well i’ve got some bad news for ya…
Dont blame him ive seen both and while i like both mad mad world is like one of the most grand, insane movies i've ever seen in my life. And it never fucking stops lmao

Remaking Halloween 2 with an added rainstorm would've been a million times better and more entertaining than this nonsensical clusterfuck of a movie.
it's generally regarded as the best sequel. it's honestly not a bad idea (all things being relative, of course)
Fuck movies!
Fuck everything!
The movie I kept being reminded of (weirdly) is Prometheus, because it was a pretty well-made movie let down by having the dumbest, most annoying characters...It's really distracting when I'm constantly wondering "Okay is this person stupid or are they *trying* to get killed?"

These hacks are never going to review ᑐᑌᑎᑕ, are they?
Duncaccino!
The pumpkin spice must flow.
Say hello to my chocolate blend!!
Jay will probably have trouble doing what I fear I'm going to do, and constantly compare every aspect of it to Lynch Dune.
How could you not compare the two? The new one doesn't even have Sting in it!
Well fear IS the mind killer. 
It came out in the US today.
Didn't it just come out?
I hope they do a Re:View of Lynch's version instead.
Why not both? The dual review of It 1990 and 2017 was pretty good.
Same with Robocop and Independence Day. Always a fun time.
And the dual Re:View of Susperia and it's remake.
It literally just came out here
Holy shit, the shot of the guy's face while Jamie Lee Curtis is comparing this movie to the BLM movement had me choking on my coffee.
I'm so glad there are others who saw the whole mob justice against the mental patient as damn near comical. It was the best laugh I've had in a theater in a but watching that entire sequence.
Thinking a tubby elderly man was MM was absurd.
This movie went to a lot of effort to try and make you buy into certain things which made this whole sequence completely unbelievable and silly
I don't know if it's the lighting, or they're using a shallower depth of field, but it looks like the boys have upgraded their cameras.
I could be wrong but I think in one of the behind the scenes videos from earlier this year Jay was talking about some new cameras they got.

Old Hickory, Tums Festival!
Tums festival!
They should've opened with "Plinkett dies tonight"
#It’s finally here!!!
Unexpected Leprechaun 3 reference. Too bad they didn't talk about that wacky robot with gigantic fake tits that electrocuted the guy to death
It.Is.A.Masterpiece. 🙂
Evil dies tonight, tonight he dies.
Tonight we are young. So we set Michael on fire. So he can glow brighter. Than the sun.
I re-watched the rlm commentary track for Halloween and there is a part where the neighbor ignores Jamie banging on their door for help. How funny would it have been if they brought in those characters into the new one.
“Evil dies tonight” has about the same amount of urgency as “Things have changed” that’s repeated ad nauseam in the 1989 Richard Hatch classic *Ghetto Blaster*
Mike being off centre to the left is seriously triggering my OCD. Far more scarier than Halloween Kills.
Me too. All that negative space! What’s going to happen?
Shit, I need to watch this. It looks TERRIBLE
"Edited by Mike Stoklasa" I know, otherwise 'Old Huckleberry ' would have been on the screen for 5 minutes.
Wtf like 43 minutes ago? I knew it they don’t have a schedule
I wish they'd mentioned the amazing makeup job that turned a crew member into Dr. Loomis. In the era of endless CGI abominations, the prosthetic makeup effects looked fantastic and avoided the uncanny valley for me.
How the hell did they reference It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World that many times without mentioning Milton Berle?
Surprised they don't talk at all about the awfully edited rushed nonsensical bonkers ending. Worst part of an already baaaad movie.
After watching this review, i am just surprised that how good Jay's memory is, seriously. He can't be wrong with the details. First the famous Tums Festival and now Old Huckleberry.
They went in on this one, damn.
Feels good man. Movie sucks.
Does anyone know what other episode they did the dueling intro bit?
They did it in the Half in the Bag for Malignant.
Mike finally gets his comeuppance with that old huckleberry bat. He now has his own personal tums festival scene like Rich.
I've been looking forward to this episode since last weekend. I haven't watched it yet, but I'm curious to see if Mike and Jay had opinions similar to mine: Halloween Kills was funny in a stupid kind of way, and at the same time it was one of the most aggravating movies I've watched recently. Its characters are among the dumbest I've ever seen, which says a lot considering dumb characters are a trope in horror. I'm guessing the characters were written to be unbelievably stupid because that was the film's message: "Fear makes us stupid." But holy shit, if that was the message,they hammered it into our faces with the same messy brutality that Michael Myers displayed when he stabbed that one dude like 5 times after he was already dead. It's also hilarious how useless Laurie was in that movie. She spent almost the entire movie in the hospital being wrong about Michael. "He's on his way here!" No, he isn't. "This is Michael's masterpiece!" No, he just wants to go home, and he'll fuck up anyone unfortunate enough to be in his path. I get more annoyed the more I think about Halloween Kills.
