"Do you WANT lunch?!"  

Constant Dutch angle shots, nine Razzie awards, awful cutaways and cinematography, hideous alien designs and of course a plot that even made scientologists cringe!

It must be Battlefield Earth!

October 31st 1978: THE NIGHT HE CAME HOME  

Widely regarded as one of the most revolutionary horror films in cinema, John Carpenter's Halloween (1978) tells the story of Michael Myers, a young boy who commits sororicide and is committed to a sanatorium.  

15 years later he escapes and returns to the suburban streets of Haddonfield to continue his murderous nature.

THCC discuss this film and the latest 2018 entry along with the key themes of conservatism, suburban horror, PTSD and the representation of evil.  

Happy Halloween from The Hoffi Coffi Cast!
