Atlanta: The Big Payback (2022)
Okay...
A pretty good start to the 3rd season so far but this episode kinda sucked. I'd rather be stuck on the rooftop of a hotel with the sun beaming down on me than watch this episode again. 5/10 because it was well acted and some interesting parts but overall boring and not as thought provoking as some of the better episodes.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: The Gang's Still in Ireland (2021)
They really just went all out with this one
IRELAND BABY! It's that character development for the Gang! Of course had it's funny callbacks but this was an important episode for IASIP.
**Spoiler**
Charlie finally meeting his real Father and Frank not giving him enough space. Mac wanting to become a Catholic priest. That Shining scene that's both really chilling and hilarious when COVID-Dennis is unzipped. And then there's Dee, who just has the worst luck with cars.
American Horror Story: Winter Kills (2021)
A rushed and uninteresting ending to Red Tide
Seemed like they came up with this episode overnight and there was nothing redeeming about it. Too many loose ends and a boring direction they went with. I had high hopes because this season has been great but it just seems to be the AHS way to go meaning the season starts off strong and finishes flat. Meh.
American Horror Story: Cape Fear (2021)
AHS is back
After that god awful spin-off, AHS is back for more blood. I'll admit that I kinda had low expectations going into this considering the spin-off was unbelievably bad. Before watching it, I realized they actually brought back good actresses/actors from the past seasons instead of finding random people who can't act at all like they did in their previous poor attempt at good television.
But after a strong start to season 10, I'm intrigued. It has a good premise with that eerie and ominous feeling that AHS does so well. It also features interesting charactes that are brought to life by great actors. This...is the American Horror Story that us fans fell in love with. Keep it up!
American Horror Stories: Game Over (2021)
Pretentious waste of time
3 out of the 7 episodes was about Murder House which is just another way of Ryan and Brad saying out loud that they have ran out of ideas. It's apparent they are the mom in this episode with being obsessed with Murder House.
This whole meta forth wall breaking is just a cop out and it reminds me of a 'it was all just a dream' scenario. Cool and unique? No. Pretentious, self obsessed, and completely unoriginal? Yes. Bad writing and terrible execution. Horrid spin-off season.
Dave: Dave (2021)
This is how you close out a season!
This finale sums up the show perfectly. It has balanced comedy and drama fairly well throughout the two seasons. It can be hilarious in one scene and touching the next. This finale was the perfect mix of anxiety inducing drama and absurd humor.
It was the tale of 2 half's. After a rocky start to the second season, it just kept getting better which led to a memorable finale that let everyone know that Dave isn't just another comedy. What a banger!
American Horror Stories: Ba'al (2021)
This should've been the first episode of the season
I had incredibly low expectations going into this episode considering this spin-off season has been trash so far but this episode/story was a surprise.
First off, Billie Lourd gave a really good performance which made the episode better than what it was. Secondly, this episode was good in the sense that it had fresh twists (some better than others) and turns that you didn't see coming especially the last couple minutes of the episode. The premise of the story was good and interesting and I thought was executed well for the most part.
Of course it had it's cliques. Super cheap jump scares. The way some characters acted as if they knew they were in a horror show instead of acting in a realistic and natural way, even though the twist ending would contradict that flaw. The ratio is totally off when they get bad actors to play these terrible characters and bring back a good actress/actor to either have the lead role or the villain. It turns me off these episodes because Matt Bomer (Rubber Woman) John Carroll Lynch (Drive in) Danny Trejo (the Christmas one) and now Billie Lourd can only do so much. That being said...it was a fine episode and anything else said about it would just be me nitpicking.
American Horror Stories: The Naughty List (2021)
Danny Trejo delivers cool kills but...
This was truly a terrible time wasting episode. I honestly didn't think it was possible that these episodes/stories could get worse but here we are. I have no faith in this spinoff season anymore.
American Horror Stories: Drive In (2021)
Awesome intro as per usual but episode sucked
This was pretty bad and not the 'so bad it's good' kind neither. Good enough premise after the unoriginal first two episodes but my god was it executed poorly. For a storyline to be only one episode long, it sure took it's sweet time getting there. It was super boring, of course had cringey dialogue, and horrid acting...especially from the "You're all doomed!!" lady. I was so disinterested in this one that I'm currently writing this review while it's still on. The only positive thing that I can say about this is that John Carroll Lynch is in this one, who plays Twisty the Clown (Freakshow) and Mr. Jingles (1984) but even he can't save this one.
Halloween (2018)
His name is Michael Myers
Worst Halloween sequel ever?! You people are insane and should be locked up in Smith's Grove sanitarium. It's been like 20 years since a good Halloween has come out and it's here! I get that some people will find H18 overrated/over hyped and might not like the fact that it changes the timeline which cancels out every Halloween movie since the original and I respect that because it's pretty bold to do that to a franchise that's 40+ years old but to sit there and suggest that it's the worst in the series and "that it's an abomination to the franchise"...not buying it. People tend to automatically hate a movie that critic's like. I'm a big fan of the Halloween franchise but I think there's some sequels that are better than others (H2, H20, H18) some that are good (H4, H6) guilty pleasures, and Resurrection. Not even mentioning Zombie's completely unnecessary remake.
First thing's first, it's not perfect. The whole "discount Loomis" thing was unnecessary. The scene at the dance where the bf was being a d*** didn't go anywhere at all and totally unneeded. They could've at least killed him off. Other than that, H18 was a good Halloween movie. Great callbacks to the other films. Having Jamie Lee Curtis back is always a big plus in my book along with Nick Castle (original Micheal) making a cameo. The guy playing Micheal Myers killed it, no pun intended. Best mask since the original! The sound design and the music/score was amazing. I liked the funny dialogue because it was casual and seemed like an everyday conversation you'd have with friends, family, etc. The kills were great with having some that were gory and some done off-screen but the make-up effects were done really well.
Obviously nothing is gonna touch Carpenter's 1978 classic Halloween, but it was a well done sequel and I feel that the movie deserves it's praise. Long live Micheal Myers
