The Halloween 1978 Honest Trailer Delves Into The Movie's Slasher Clichs

The new Halloween made a major mark at the box office this past weekend, setting a franchise record and becoming one of the best October openings ever. With that film now in theaters, it seems an appropriate time to revisit John Carpenter's 1978 Halloween, and what better way to do so (short of watching the actual film) than with the latest Honest Trailer. Check out the Honest Trailer for the 1978 Halloween below to see all the slasher clichs packed into the horror classic.

Watching this, you really get reminded of just how many of what we now consider to be slasher clichs this film had in it. The hook-ups, the masked killer with a hatred for suburban teenagers who makes creepy phone calls and the virginal survivor were all in the original Halloween. And the clich of a killer or any sort of mysterious figure disappearing right before you try and draw attention to him goes beyond the slasher genre and exists across film.

Of course, as the Screen Junkies' Honest Trailer notes, Halloween was the film that invented some of these clichs, while it cemented others. Given how influential Halloween was and still is, it acted as a blueprint for the slasher films that followed. Watching it for the first time now though, you could be forgiven for finding it derivative with all of the well-worn clichs it employs.

That's part of what makes the new film so fun though, as it is aware of the clichs that its predecessor created and attempts to subvert some of these.

One of the funniest parts about this Honest Trailer is how it highlights the confusing nature of the franchise's continuity and titling. The new film is the sequel to the original Halloween, making it the third Halloween II, but it's still called Halloween, not Halloween II.

This film also erases the continuity other than the first film, so for the layman it could all get rather confusing, such is the nature of the reboot-quel. I guess after 40 years and multiple reboots, it's best to not question things and just go with it. That's made a lot easier once you realize that forgetting many of the Halloween sequels is something audiences wanted to do the minute after they saw them.

In its ribbing fun, this Honest Trailer also acknowledges that the 1978 Halloween is still one of the best horror films ever made, thanks in part to John Carpenter's direction and his iconic score, as well as Jamie Lee Curtis' performance and the enduring nature of Michael Myers.

If you haven't seen it in a while, give the original Halloween a rewatch to see how well it holds up, and check out the new Halloween from director David Gordon Green, in theaters now. For all the biggest movies still to come in 2018, check out our release schedule.

Why Hollywood Needs To Make More Movies About Pirates

Why Hollywood Needs To Make More Movies About Pirates

A couple weeks back brought the somewhat surprising news that Disney is planning to reboot its successful Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, this time without Johnny Depp. This move made sense given the franchise's critical decline, diminishing domestic box office performance and the leading actor no longer enjoying the same public enthusiasm he once did. There are reasons to be excited about this reboot, but it got me thinking: why are Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean movies the only movies about pirates Hollywood seems to be making?

Pirate movies were more prevalent decades ago, but nowadays it's pretty much just Pirates of the Caribbean. Disney's five Pirates films have made over $4.5 billion worldwide and the company may own the brand Pirates of the Caribbean, but the Mouse House certainly doesn't own the concept of pirates. Hollywood is a predictable beast in that success breeds imitation; the MCU's popularity is why you see so many comic book and superhero movies coming to the big screen, and Game of Thrones' impact is why every streaming service is working on expensive high fantasy shows. So why not pirates?

The rest of Hollywood is just letting Disney's franchise monopolize the market, and I think they're leaving galleons on the table because pirates can be the launching point for some exciting storytelling opportunities. Here's why Hollywood needs to make more movies about pirates.

Pirates Are Part of Pop CultureThe Halloween holiday just passed, and if you went out to celebrate, it wouldn't have been strange to see people dressed as pirates. Pirates are ingrained in pop culture as an idea, and that's a powerful thing. Generations have grown up with pirate stories, from Sinbad and Treasure Island to Peter Pan and Pirates of the Caribbean. And there are few films that the ever-important millennial demographic has more of a nostalgic connection to than The Princess Bride and Hook.

Something about pirate stories connects with us and makes them evergreen. Even if pirates were not good people historically, the mythology of them and the stereotypical depiction that has arisen due to the aforementioned stories is extremely appealing. Living life as a swashbuckler on the high seas with the wind at your back as you chase the sunrise is a romantic idea that conveys a sense of freedom that speaks to us.

This inherent appeal and pop culture permanence should make pirate movies easy sells to audiences. Nobody needs to be told what a pirate is, and I think that makes it easier to draw audiences in to whatever world and story a movie with pirates wants to tell.

There Is Plenty Of History Worth ExploringAlthough Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean movies are set in a real historical period and occasionally feature real historical figures, they are decidedly fictional. That's great for the film series, but there is also a lot of fascinating real history that took place that has never been given the proper modern big screen treatment.

For example, it always fascinates me that there isn't some great and gritty Blackbeard movie that chronicles the life of history's most famous pirate. The Golden Age of Piracy from the 1650s to the 1720s alone has numerous events and figures worth exploring, from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean and beyond. Figures like Madame Cheng, Captain Kidd, Henry Morgan and Long Ben all lived lives that could be adapted to the big screen.

Starz's Black Sails series also showed how what was ostensibly a Treasure Island prequel with characters like Billy Bones and Long John Silver could incorporate real historical figures like Anne Bonny, Calico Jack Rackham, Charles Vane and Edward Teach to great effect. Historical fiction like that is a great way for pirate movies to explore fascinating real-world history while still giving filmmakers plenty of leeway to tell original stories.

Pirate Movies Can Have Supernatural And Sci-Fi ElementsPart of what is interesting about pirate stories is that audiences can accept them as realistic historical tales or adventures filled with fantasy. Probably the two most prevalent pirate stories in pop culture are Peter Pan and Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, both of which incorporate fun fantasy and supernatural elements in to their narratives.

Cursed treasure, sirens, sea monsters, mermaids and all the other mythological elements that lend themselves to pirate movies give them more tools to play with to tell stories that exist outside the historical record. These elements make for bigger spectacles and the kinds of movies that make money at the box office. Pirate movies don't even need to be set on the real Earth; buccaneers can be applied to all types of stories, as something like the anime One Piece shows.

In Hollywood's nostalgia-driven age, it's surprising that an adaptation of the animated series The Pirates of Dark Water doesn't seem to be in the works. The 1991 animated series, which is about alien pirates, fantastical creatures and mystical treasures on the world of Mer that is about to be consumed by a substance known as Dark Water, has franchise written all over it. The point is that pirate movies can be faithful recreations of history or weird fantasy stories and that flexibility gives storytellers a lot to play with.

Pirate Movies Have Tonal FlexibilityAnother reason Hollywood should make more pirate movies is that the genre, if you want to call it that, is extremely flexible and versatile. In addition to it lending itself to both historical films and fantasy stories, pirate movies can run the gamut as far as tone and rating. A blockbuster Pirates of Dark Water movie is just as intriguing as gritty, character-driven movie about Blackbeard. The common thread is that they would both be pirate movies.

There are pirate movies as kid friendly as The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie and as mass market as Pirates of the Caribbean, to a movie that's as hard-R as something like Black Sails was on TV.

Think about a genre as vibrant as comic book movies and you'll see something similar. Incredibles 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Logan and Deadpool all fall into the same genre, but they are all vastly different films tonally. That's the sign of a healthy genre and I think that pirate movies, while not necessarily having quite that latitude, still have a ton of potential to do something similar. Comedy, drama, action, horror, sci-fi, fantasy, pirates work in all these contexts.

Disney has had so much success with Pirates of the Caribbean series that after five movies, it has decided that it is going to keep this ship moving and Scrooge McDuck's vault full by doing it all over again with a reboot. But Disney shouldn't be the only one telling original pirate stories. The Mouse has only scratched the surface with its films and the rest of Hollywood needs to seek their own buried treasure and make more pirate movies.
