"By the time Zombie gets to the Laurie Strode section of the film...he has stripped Myers of his mystique and therefore, I presume unintentionally, of his menace without leaving adequate space for something like commiseration in its absence."

"Halloween...is in a class by itself, and comparing the sequel to it--as critics and audiences often do, dismissively--is unfair. Sure, [it] lacks the freshness of its predecessor. But compared to films its own size...it's a goddamn masterpiece."

"It's not in its movie biz opprobrium that the film finds its poignancy, but rather in 'Hamlet 2,' the play within the film--the thing wherein Coogan will catch his own conscience. Or subconscious."

"Wrapping global warming (and more!) anxieties in 1950's B-movie atmosphere, The Happening is simultaneously the most serious and most fun piece of post-Inconvenient Truth filmmaking that America has yet produced."

"The Host could easily be read as, what else, an allegory for The War on Terror. When the American military uses violence, against a monster of its own creation, mind you, it's mostly a lot of innocent civilians who are hurt in the process."

"On the one hand, we should commend horror directors that choose not to revel too long in geysers of blood (for not "Eli Rothing"); on the other, build-up without satisfying denouement is exasperating."
