When Wes gets out of the shower

Seriously wtf was that scene? we follow him getting out of the shower, walking downstairs, going in the kitchen, closing cabinets, grabbing plates, grabbing bottles, setting plates, grabbing ice, wondering around for like 5 minutes with nothing happening.

You had the "Is the killer behind this door" moment 3 fucking times, literally everytime he opened a door you got the big tense music playing, closes it and there's no one there, 3 fucking times in one sequence, felt like a fucking spoof.

I've never seen such a long boring sequence in a movie in all my life where NOTHING is happening, such bad filler. "hey this movie needs to be longer, eh lets have Wes wonder around his kitchen for about 4 or 5 minutes".

That scene could have been cut down to him getting out of the shower, walking down stairs and immediately finding his mom, then he gets killed, i didn't need 5 minutes of him in his kitchen where nothing happened except awful overdone fake jump scares everytime he opened a door to grab something.

The police must have had a staff shortage on that day

I didn't mind him showering or getting outta the shower. Believe me. I ❤ me some white boys.

The point of the scene is to build tension. Something that the overrated original Halloween is not only praised for, but considered the "greatest slasher of all time" for. But herr derr "Scream ruined horror because the 90's & blah blah". Good points bud.

If the point was to build tension they have no idea how to build tension, he wondered around the house for like 7 minutes without anything happening other than a hundred "Is the killer behind this door" moments that was teetering on parody levels of goofy. I was half expecting him to open the microwave door and build up music would start playing wanting us to think the killer could be behind it.

And you're seriously shitting on Halloween and calling it overrated while defending this mess of a movie? As Yoda would say "The taste in this one, bad it is".

This movie isn't the greatest, but yes the original Halloween is overrated.

yes, I completely understand. Like we have never ever seen anybody killed before!

Plus I have seen this dude in almost every horror movie these days!
Looks like Hollywood needs to cast more people

He was in Don’t Breathe and The Open House, which wasn’t even a full release. (And Let Me In when he was a little kid.) What else?
