The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
View MoreI wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
View MoreJust intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
View MoreOne of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
View MoreI have always been a huge fan of this movie! By all means it is not perfect, but it is timeless. As technology progresses I can't help but go back to this family favorite. Way back when it was airing on TV I taped it on VHS. I have watched it every year during October since I can remember. I recently went off to college and as October came around all I could do was think about watching The Last Halloween. Well my wishes were answered when I decided to dig up the VHS and turn it into a DVD. It even has the old time commercials in it, and the quality isn't half bad. If anyone is looking a copy I might be able to make that happen. Email me at bl03eust@siena.eduMy DVD Copy Machine has been in repair for sometime now. I will be getting it back around Christmas time. I'm sorry that I cannot have a copy to all of you by Halloween, but keep in contact with me and I will do my best to get you a copy for next Halloween.
View MoreI look for this movie every year, & haven't seen it on in several years. It used to play every Halloween. It is my favorite Halloween movie. I wish they would start playing it again or release it on DVD!!! It is a fantastic family movie, and one that children today are really missing out on. They don't make children's made-for-TV movies like this any more. I'm 23 now & would still love to watch it. The characters were great, the animation was awesome. It's Halloween-y but still has worked in the importance of many of the virtues that TV & movie producers & writers have worked out of television and entertainment. Definitely worth watching! They really need to bring this one back as a classic. Release it on DVD & advertise for us so we know it is available...it would definitely be added to my collection.
View MoreThis movie is great for "getting in the spirit" of Halloween & trick-or-treating! I highly recommend it - especially for families with young children. I would love to own a copy of it or would love to see it on TV again this year! Bring it back, please!! The cast & characters were just right, the story is about hope, dreams & never giving up wishing for something you really want to happen. The costumes, the decorations, the entire spirit in the movie is just plain fun. Rhea Pearlman is a terrific "bad lady" & Richard Moll is just perfect for the part of Hans, the evil henchman! And it has a happy ending, with lots of Halloween goodies thrown in - what could be better than that?
View Morei REALLY wish they'd start playing this movie again every halloween. every halloween i look for it & i haven't seen it on tv in several years. i miss watching it. if it was released on video i'd buy it too! i really feel like kids now are missing out on a really neat movie that wanders a little from the traditional halloween plots but is very entertaining and has really cool characters (creatures).
