Review of Spoof Review:Movie Classic "Halloween" by Ẃeβ࿚ẂỉԎḈĥ Author Icon

This is excellent stuff. I've never seen the movie but I feel now that I know everything that happens in it, thanks to your fine summary. An important point is that it's your trademark asides that provide the punch to the narrative and keeps us in the lighthearted mood you intend.

Tables turned at the end, of course. But Michael manages to sneak out while no one's looking - got to prepare for Halloween 2 no doubt. You've made the movie seem quite watchable, which is really the joke, I suppose. As a horror classic it's meant to chill and terrify, not be enjoyed!

As usual, you leave me no flaws and whoopsies to comment upon so that all I can do is point to the good writing, the clever twisting of the horrific to the amusing, and the jaundiced eye view that you do so well. It's a very modern and sophisticated take on the horror movie scene that you specialise in. Who better to satirise a movie than one who really enjoys it?

I did find one tiny thing that I can point at. Your choice of Contest for a genre pick is not ideal as no one searches for that genre. So it might be best to swap it for something else - Dark, for instance. Otherwise it's a great piece and much fun was had by all.
