"description": "This one picks up directly after the 2018 continuation of the Halloween saga and I mean directly after. It could've been one movie, but runtime becomes an issue with things this gruesome and lightly considered. I tend to think of movies through a simple rubric — they can be fun, they can be good, but they should at least be fun. If they're fun and good — even better. This one was fun. Not good, but fun. I don't expect much more from movies like this or new entries in the Scream franchise. It feels like a complete story that capably bookended the first of the modern films. The cast (that survives) does just as capable a job as before, the action is well paced and it's no more or less violent than the first. Worth a watch, knowing what you're getting into, but by no means essential.",
