   The Shape of Things, Part II: Retrospective on Halloween (2007-2022)

   We cap things off for the month with an examination of Rob Zombie’s remakes and discuss the Requel Trilogy that started in 2018 and ended this year with Halloween Ends. A bittersweet episode, both due to the end of October and the beginning of my hiatus. But at least we’re ending it on a high note. Happy Samhain, everyone! HALLOWEEN ENDS: When I say “skip for spoilers,” go to about 39:48.

   Yep. It’s time. The Halloween franchise, from John Carpenter’s 1978 classic to the much-maligned ’02 Resurrection. The RZ entries and the Requel Trilogy will be tomorrow.

   From New York to the Gates of Hell: Five From Lucio Fulci

   Five works by the Italian horror and exploitation film legend Lucio Fulci. We touch on his Gates of Hell trilogy, which had two among its number on the infamous Video Nasties list, Zombie (an unofficial sequel to Dawn of the Dead), and his infamous slasher/giallo hybrid The New York Ripper.
