87. Make Believe Seattle #3: THE THIRD SATURDAY IN OCTOBER (2022) dir. Jay Burleson

No, I didn't make a typo. THE THIRD SATURDAY IN OCTOBER should, according to what I was told in the press email, be watched - AFTER - THE THIRD SATURDAY IN OCTOBER PART V.I talked about PART V being my cinematic comfort food; this continues my personal legacy by replicating the way I watched the NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET movies: out of order. I caught DREAM WARRIORS first on IFC. I can only imagine how limited a '70s/'80s kid source of movie knowledge and access must've been. Hell, I had Netflix sending me DVDs. Back then, you're limited to not only the stock of what was in the video store, but also the flow of strangers renting said movie. If you needed to watch FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE FINAL CHAPTER, but all your store has is THE NEW BLOOD cause Jerry Lee is late to return the other movie, you're fucked.I write all this to say that Jay Burleson understands me, and I wildly presume he understands many of you as well. The folks who can't get enough guts and cheese in your slashers. The people who worship at the altar of Craven, Carpenter and Cunningham. Yeah, friends.And then you got Darius Willis as this movie's bad-as-a-mothafucka Dr. Loomis, Ricky Dean Logan. Just saying, he wouldn't have let Michael Myers even get to HALLOWEEN II.God bless you, Make Believe Seattle Film Festival, for introducing me to this double-feature. This should become a Halloween staple.---------------------------Review THE MOVIES on Apple Podcasts & I'll read it on the next episode!Follow The Movies on ⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠& ⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠Financially support the podcast via the ⁠⁠tip jar!
