“If I must I’ll hold on tightly

As we’re dragged down through the flames

It won’t be the first time I’ve died

But it will be the last

At my own hands in place of yours”

Idk where to begin on a lore drop here, but I’ve drawn these two before! This picture is more symbolic than their literal end. Theirs is the tale of two souls intertwined throughout time:

Nora, as she is here, is on her 2nd reincarnation. The first life ending in fire and an instinctive drive to destroy all that would bring evil upon the world. The second life ending is hurt, betrayal, and love lost. A literal stab to the back by a man she’d fallen for. Her eyes locked onto his each time she died, including this last one.

The first time he ran from her, new to immortality and still fearful of a violent death. The second, he seduced and embraced her, using his knowledge to his advantage and ensuring he’d continue on his already-supernatural lifespan. The third… she held the knife herself… he wouldn’t expect it, but he’d know he’d finally lost, and he’s nothing if not a good sport. 😏

SUMMARY: Kids all over America want Silver Shamrock masks for Halloween. Doctor Daniel Challis seeks to uncover a plot by Silver Shamrock owner Conal Cochran.

The Last Star Fighter premiered on July 13, 1984. The film stood out at the time for it's heavy use of early CGI and was often compared against Return of the Jedi that was still using stop motion, puppets, and matte paintings. Behind the scenes, the film was connected to the Halloween universe as its director Nick Castle played "The Shape" in Halloween, Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills, and "flasher" in Halloween Ends, and stars Lance Guest appeared as Jimmy in Halloween II and Dan O'Herlihy starred as Conal Cochran in Halloween III Season of the Witch. In the story, an alien named Centauri (Robert Preston in his final theatric role) travelled to Earth to recruit high schooler Alex Rogan (Guest), who lived in a trailer park, because he passed a starfighter test disguised as a video game. So his absense wouldn't be noticed, Centari left a Beta clone to take Alex's place and spend time with Alex's brother Louis (Chris Hebert) and Alex's girlfriend Maggie Gordon (Catherine Mary Stewart). Meanwhile in space, due to a betrayal by Xur (Norman Snow), Alex found that he and alien pilot Grig would have to use the last starfighter to fend off an invation lead by Lord Kril (Dan Mason).

The ritual involves a boulder stolen from Stonehenge, the use of Silver Shamrock masks and a triggering device contained in a television commercial -- all designed to kill millions of children.

2022 Horror Challenge: [62/?]

↳“The world's going to change tonight, Doctor, I'm glad you'll be able to watch it. And… Happy Halloween.” Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) dir. Tommy Lee Wallace

Plot: Kids all over America want Silver Shamrock masks for Halloween. Doctor Daniel Challis seeks to uncover a plot by Silver Shamrock owner Conal Cochran.

Starring: Tom Atkins, Stacey Nelkin & Dan O'Herlihy

Yes, I've never watched Halloween III (and well, honestly most of the series tbh aside from the original two, one of the bad later sequels, and the very recent ones so) but then, it gets a lot of hate so that wouldn't probably be too surprising anyway. Normally, I try to finish the challenge off with a horror comedy since that's my fave genre and feels appropriate as a way to end it, but I just finally wanted to watch this to see if the hate is deserved. I really respect that John Carpenter wanted the Halloween series to be about more than Michael Myers but the studio heads (and sadly, the audience) didn't want that. But I do blame that on them forcing Halloween II being about him cuz then the anthology idea would have totally worked imo. Which is why I do get what Halloween Ends was going for a little even more, but this wasn't supposed to be the end of a trilogy so... Anyway, about the movie itself. It's actually a quite dark concept within it, meaning to kill young kids in a gruesome way. As I said, I do respect them trying to do something different with the series, but I will say the plot has holes. Cuz Cochran's evil plan doesn't make a lot of sense & there's timezones being ignored. And okay, yeah, not all the effects are great either. BUT some positives, because I still had some fun with it. Tom Atkins is a horror staple for me now after having seen The Fog, Night of the Creeps & now this. He's solid. Dan O'Herlihy does a nice job of being a menacing villain. As for the musical score, it's great as always like any John Carpenter-involved one will be. Some wild kills in there also for people who care about that. And that ending is pretty batshit crazy cuz ummm, okay nihilistic for sure. If anything, that Silver Shamrock jingle is not gonna get out of your head by the end of the movie. lol So, while maybe not the best movie I could have ended the challenge with, it still felt appropriate because it is a cult classic. I can't say I'm necessarily in the 'yay' column over the 'nay' one for this movie, but it's still not the worst Halloween movie. Idc what anyone says. I do wish John Carpenter had gotten to do his proper anthology series he'd wanted to do but since this bombed badly overall, we didn't get it. Oh well. But well, I finally watched this so there's that.

Anyway, that's it for the horror watch challenge this year. Lots of different movies watched as always. I will be making my traditional 'Faves' & 'Least Faves' list that I always post every year later today for anyone who cares. heh

rewatched this weekend and I’ve decided he was correct, actually

[namesisfortombstones]

“You don’t really know much about Halloween...

You thought no further than the strange custom of having your children wear masks and go out begging for candy. It was the start of the year in our old Celtic lands and we’d be waiting in our houses of wattles and clay. The barriers would be down, you see, between the real and the unreal and the dead might be looking in to sit by our fires of turf. Halloween… the festival of Samhain [sow-an]. The last great one took place 3,000 years ago when the hills ran red with the blood of animals and children. It was part of our world; our craft. To us, it was a way of controlling our environment. In the end, we don’t decide these things, you know. The planets do. They’re in alignment and it’s time again. The world’s going to change tonight and I’m glad you’ll be able to watch it.

And… Happy Halloween.”
