Dr. Loomis ruins it for me.

Rating: 6/10 (30 October 2019)

I like this movie enough, but Dr. Loomis is... not among my favourite movie characters. I could already do without a character who's only purpose is to repeat the exact same exposition every 10 to 15 minutes (seriously, why?), but what's even worse is that these scenes actually bring down the rest of the movie for me. All of the best scenes are the ones that treat Michael Myers as a mysterious stalker who's motives and intent are unclear, but thanks to Dr. Loomis, I already know exactly who he is and exactly what he's up to. In my opinion, all of the context we needed was in the opening scene, and once it was over they should have left it at that.
