Qhib hauv theatre thiab debuting ntawm Peacock tag kis, Xus xaus yog zaj yeeb yaj kiab zoo tshaj plaws ntawm Blumhouse-tsim Michael Myers trilogy. 2018 Halloween xav shamelessly ua si nyob rau hauv lub Force awakens chaw ua si thaum vam tias cov neeg tuaj saib thiab pundits yuav yooj yim tsis quav ntsej txog qhov muaj nyob ntawm Xus: H20. Xus Kills xav ua si 'tuav kuv dais' nrog nihilism ntawm Rob Zombie's Halloween remake thaum tseem yog ib tug xoob remake ntawm Xus II thiab Rov qab los ntawm Michael Myers. Halloween xaus sim ib txoj hauv kev sib txawv, uas yog ua ib qho kev ua yeeb yam txaus ntshai nyob rau hauv lub nroog muaj kev tuag uas tshwm sim los ua ib qho Halloween txuas ntxiv. Ntau tshaj li ob qho yeeb yaj kiab ua ntej, Xus xaus zoo nkaus li thiab hnov, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog rau nws thawj ib nrab, zoo li ib tug yeeb yam los ntawm tus txiv neej uas helmed George Washington thiab Snow Angels Qhov ntawd kuj tshwm sim rau Michael Myers.

Qhib ib xyoos tom qab Xus Kills, daim duab muaj ib tug ghoulishly funny thiab seemingly disconnected prologue nrog ib tug me nyuam tub tormenting nws Halloween hmo ntuj tus zov menyuam. me ntsis spoiler, tab sis hmo ntuj tsis zoo, thiab peb hla mus rau lub hnub tam sim no qhov twg ib tug tub hluas uas tau cog lus tseg (Rohan Campbell) yog ib tug outcast scraping los ntawm ib tug feem ntau reclusive mechanical. Lub caij no, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) tau yuav ib lub tsev (ib txwm) thiab tab tom sim ua kom muaj lub neej zoo, tsis muaj kev puas tsuaj rau nws tus ntxhais xeeb ntxwv (Andi Matichak). Yawg tab tom sau nws cov memoirs (cue qhov ib txwm naval-gazing voiceover) thiab tiag tiag yuav tsum mus rau hnub nrog Tus Lwm Thawj Coj Frank Hawkins (Will Patton). Txawm li cas los xij, nws tsawg kawg sim teeb tsa nws tus tub xeeb ntxwv kho siab nrog tus ntxim hlub (hauv txoj kev Edward Scissorhands-zoo li) tawm tsam. Ob tug ntsuj plig puas muaj peev xwm nrhiav tau hluas nkauj hlub hauv lub nroog uas raug kev ntshai?

Thawj zaj yeeb yaj kiab ua yeeb yam ua yeeb yam ua yeeb yam thiab ntxim nyiam. Nws plays tawm lub tswv yim zoo tshaj plaws nyob rau hauv hnyav hnyav Kev foom ntawm Michael Myers, uas yog hais tias Haddonfield tau dhau los ua kev puas tsuaj los ntawm Michael Myers uas cov neeg nyob hauv uas muaj sia nyob yog muaj koob meej zombies. Hauv qhov no, qhov txaus ntshai ntawm ob qho dhau los Halloween cov yeeb yaj kiab (thaum lub sijhawm uas Michael tua 45 tus neeg nyob rau ib hmos) tsuas yog ua rau cov rot uas twb muaj lawm nyob rau hauv cov nroog uas muaj kev lag luam yav dhau los thiab / lossis yav dhau los kev vam meej suburbia, nrog cov pej xeem muaj kev ntshai thiab kev ntxub ntxaug thiab xav tias qhov phem tshaj tawm ntawm lawv cov neeg nyob ze. Xav txog qhov retroactive nostalgia rau lub stereotypically zoo lub zos me me personified los ntawm thawj Halloween, nws yog yuav luag subversive los qhia txog qhov twg cov chaw xws li tam sim no mirages. Tseeb, koj tau txais déjà vu rau Stephen King's It, tab sis daim ntawv ntawm lub neej ua yeeb yam ua haujlwm.

Yog li ntawd yog qhov tseem ceeb romance, raws li Allyson cuam nws tus kheej ntawm qhov puas thiab pom tseeb teeb meem Corey. Lawv ob leeg txaus siab rau txoj kev xav ntawm kev nrhiav kev zoo siab hauv ib lub nroog uas muaj ob peb lub zeem muag thiab lwm qhov me me uas tsim nyog sawv rau. Yog lawm, Corey hu Allyson tawm ntawm kev kho nws zoo li "Kuv tuaj yeem kho nws thiab cawm nws" txoj haujlwm, thiab muaj qee lub sijhawm uas tej zaum nws yuav tsum rov qab los, tab sis lawv yuav tsum ua dab tsi ntxiv rau tam sim no? Yog lawm, Michael Myers thaum kawg ua lub luag haujlwm hauv zaj dab neeg no, thiab (raws li qhia hauv kev saib ua ntej) zaj yeeb yaj kiab thaum kawg muab rau hauv thiab muab rau cov kiv cua uas lawv tuaj rau. Zoo li Jurassic Ntiaj Teb Ncaws, Xus xaus ua tsawg yuam kev raws li nws dhau los ua ib qho kev sib koom ua ke franchise tshwj xeeb. Tseem, kuv twv nws yog 'kos cov thawv no, thiab peb yuav txwv tsis pub koj ua txhua yam koj xav tau' kev sib haum xeeb.

Tus thawj coj David Gordon Green tau muaj kev lom zem rau lub sijhawm no, tau ua ob qhov kev ua yeeb yaj kiab thiab tam sim no muaj peev xwm thiab txaus siab ua si hauv sandbox no thiab ua ib yam dab tsi uas xav tias ze zog rau nws cov yeeb yam me me ua ntej. Qhov no yog ze rau qhov kuv cia siab rau thaum tus txiv leej tub uas tau coj Tag nrho cov ntxhais tiag kos npe los ua ib Halloween movie, txawm tias nws tag nrho filmography (Peb Lub Hom Phiaj Muaj Teeb Meem, Koj Qhov Siab Zoo, Muaj Zog, Pineapple Express, thiab lwm yam) nyuaj rau Ang Lee rau 'qhov muag tsis pom kev cuam tshuam' randomness. Qhov no yog qhov loj heev uas xav tsis thoob, hais txog qhov chaw sib txawv thiab ntau lub cim loj, qhov kev txaus ntshai txaus ntshai thiab tshaj / qis dua $ 30 lab pob nyiaj siv nyob rau ntawm (IMAX) screen. Lub suab thiab ua kom pom tseeb yog qhov uas cov ntshav tua neeg yuav luag ntawm qhov taw tes, ib yam li cov lus nug ntawm Michael Myers ua li cas lossis tsis ua rau nws.

Xus xaus ua hauj lwm raws li kev quaj ntsuag thiab kev nyuaj siab rau Michael Myers/Laurie Strode franchise. Nws yog yuav luag ib tug dare rau folks yws tias Halloween thiab Xus Kills tsuas yog tib yam qub thiab/los yog Michael tua neeg rau 100 feeb, muab ib Halloween sequel uas ua haujlwm (tsawg kawg thaum pib) ua yeeb yam ua ntej thiab slasher thib ob. Peb tseem nyob rau thaum kawg tau txais cov pa ntau txaus ntshai tropes. Laurie thaum kawg muab tso rau hauv nws qhov kev tsis txaus siab, txawm tias nws ua rau peb tsawg kawg yog ib tus cwj pwm zoo. Muaj ntau qhov kev tuag hnyav nyob rau hauv ib nrab thib ob, uas plays zoo li kev sib xyaw ntawm It thiab Hellraiser. Tab sis zaj duab xis yog refreshing nyob rau hauv uas nws muab cov neeg tuaj saib lawv xav tau dab tsi ua ntej nws (theoretically) muab lawv qhov lawv xav tau. Nws yog ib qho yeeb yaj kiab zoo, thiab nws zoo nkauj heev rau qhov tseem ceeb Xus 13.
