Preface--I've not played the game. This story was beautiful and the love story was so sweet, but I felt like I was watching a different show that felt way longer than it should've. I know that I will probably like it more on the 2nd watch now that I know what to expect.
This wasn't a bad story by any means. I felt like I grew old with Frank and Bill, but if you sit down to watch a tv show about zombies and characters you've spent 3 hours with and it shifts suddenly to 2 characters who aren't particularly part of the main story and place them in a totally different genre, it feels like it drags everything down and slows the pace way down, killing the mood of what I've been watching.
Like I said, it deserves a rewatch to appreciate the story of two lovers finding their purpose in a world crashing around them, but my brain wasn't ready for such a dramatic shift from the 3 hours I watched before.
Is the story good? Yes. Was it necessary in THIS show? I'll find out as I go. Awesome performances by everyone!

This isn't a bad film at all. It's a thinking-piece told through narration mostly. It's far removed from every Halloween film you've ever seen, and it does it's own thing. It's very grounded and will have its own audience. Will it be the majority of Halloween fans? Probably not, but I can't fault it for doing it's own thing.
Throw away any expectations, don't let the poster and trailer mislead you. This is 100% a think-piece.
The atmosphere is missing, the feel of Halloween is not there. There are some parts I liked, but overall it's a very slow moving narration that puts Michael in the backseat.

Rob did it!! This is a fun movie in its own merits, and I'm so happy they did the characters their way. I REALLY enjoyed and appreciated this film! The sets and casting were PERFECT!! All the humor and fun jokes never made this movie drag at all. It's a spooky fun live action "cartoon", and definitely a recommend from me.
It's so clear that a lot of love and care for the source show went into this. As a 40-year old guy who fell in love with this show in my teens, it hit all the right notes for me. The mood, locations, and performances were great. Forget what the haters say, this had a lot of love and hard work poured into it, and I think everyone involved should be proud of this movie. Buying the Blu ray and can't wait to see the extras!
