Episode 108: HALLOWEEN H20: TWENTY YEARS LATER (1998)

Happy Halloween, boils and ghouls! To conclude the spooky season, John and Simon return back to the series we covered in detail last November, and discuss Jamie Lee Curtis' return back to the franchise: HALLOWEEN H20! This was a first time watch for the both of us, so we first started the episode talking about our memories of this film and note its importance to the series. Afterwards, we get into some news of the week and John shares what spooky films he watched on his NYC trip (include a WORLD PREMIERE of a new horror film! Yes, Seat Struck does journalism, folks). Afterwards, we got into the film and gave our scores. Next week we will be discussing (possibly with a special guest) the 2022 Luca Guadagnino film BONES AND ALL.
