Return to Haddonfield for talk of John Carpenter's Cadillac, Laurie Strode's waddle, Jamie Lee Curtis' teeth, and the JANE introductions of Ross Putman.

Michael Myers Minute

Halloween Minute 12 (REMIX) - "and pretty in a quiet sort of way"

At the gates of the sanitarium, #DoctorLoomis tries to make a call, #NurseChambers does strange things with a government vehicle, and #TheShape arrives, wrench at hand.

Halloween Minute 11 (REMIX) - "forty years ago, he started a sentence... and he never ended it"

Nurse Chambers and Doctor Loomis arrive at the Sanitarium gate only to find that patients are wandering around outside. Plus, a little podcast behind-the-scenes talk RE: formatting my notes, visiting filming locations, and getting on a government watchlist.

Halloween Minute 10 (REMIX) - "help him find his purple lawn mower"

Nurse Chambers smokes a lot, Dr. Loomis is serious about it, his ex-girlfriend was killed by Michael, Thorazine was the first anti-psychotic, and they haven't gotten to the sanitarium yet.

Halloween Minute 9 (REMIX) - "Marion wasn't very woke"

#DoctorLoomis in two added-for-television scenes, edited in the car to be more likable, as Cassandra figure, and as Ahab chasing his cosmic #whitewhale.

Halloween Minute 8 (REMIX) - "throwing up his hands in unscientific despair"

Judy dies, Michael flees, and we meet their parents and really get to know them... or just watch them stand around awkwardly for 30 seconds, never to be seen again. Also, the real Michael Myers?

Halloween Minute 7 (REMIX) - "when mommy and daddy get home"

Judy sings, Michael has toys, and just how many times does Michael stab his sister? And what about the voice inside his head?

Halloween Minute 6 (REMIX) - "a thousand slabs of bloody meat"

Candlesticks, chafing dishes, wrong clocks, transom windows, houses that are bigger on the inside, and the voices in Michael's head. Plus #MyersHouseNC. From psychosexual fury to the shadow of the cameraman, it is Minute 5 of #Halloween

Halloween Minute 5 (REMIX) - "and, they say her brother did it"

About POV, about the nature of evil, and something about blenders.

Halloween Minute 4 (REMIX) - "Michael's around someplace"

Connecting the death of Judy Myers to the assassination of JFK, talking Samhain and the little known prologue with the Celtic boy Enda. And this one actually got a few minutes shorter on the remix.

Halloween Minute 3 (REMIX) - "thy soul shall roam the earth till the end of time"

The tail of end of my conversation with my sisters drifts from the opening credits of #Halloween to our favorite #horrorfilms and what #slasherfilms are all about. (And I fixed up the audio from last year as best I could.)

Halloween Minute 2 (REMIX) - "since we were young"

It's been a year, and I'm working on some other projects and have not come back for Halloween II yet. So, here is the first of several remixes of the early episodes that didn't have great sound quality. My eagerness to jump in outweighed my patience for figuring out a good mixing program. This is a much longer version of Minute 1, with two of my sisters and me talking about the Halloween houses, Solarbabies, Blood Beach, Motel Hell, Rob Zombie's remake and why the original is scary. Plus, we talk about the first few credits--Mustapha Akkad, Donald Pleasence, Jamie Lee Curtis, Nancy Loomis, and PJ Soles--as well as Janet Leigh, the final girl, and what it means to be a slut.

Halloween Minute 1 (REMIX) - "you don't have to to die because you're a slut"

The credits end, the screen goes black, the music fades, and The Shape is captured behind the Elrods' house.

Halloween Minute 91 - "Right now, on Michael Myers Minute, there is only this film."

End credits, one final IMDb goof, the Halloween II novelization, the nature of evil, and a part of Michael Myers we weren't supposed to see.

Halloween Minute 90 - "Halloween is over. The games. The roles. The cheap thrills."

The film proper comes to an end, with looks back into the novelization, into Chaos Comics, into Michael's childhood and ancestry, and a look forward into Halloween II

Halloween Minute 89 - "a dream about his vengeance on a Druid girl who had not returned his love"

Join Robert Black of the Groundhog Day Project as he stalks the people of Haddonfield and explores the details of the Halloween franchise, one minute at a time. Episodes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
