Halloween

Directed by David Gordon Green, this 2018 film serves as a direct sequel to the 1978 classic, ignoring all previous sequels. It follows Laurie Strode, played by Jamie Lee Curtis, as she prepares for a final confrontation with the masked killer Michael Myers, who has escaped from captivity. The film explores themes of trauma and survival, with a strong focus on Laurie’s resilience and determination. While it did not win any major awards, it was well-received for its suspenseful atmosphere and homage to the original. For those interested, it can be viewed for free on Soap2day.
