A deep dive into one of our absolute favorites

Episode 23: Halloween (1978)
Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon | Goodpods
Bring Me the Axe! is a comedy podcast celebrating the best (and worst) horror from a time when the video store ruled the night. Every other week, brothers Bryan and Dave White (and the occasional guest) heed the call of nostalgia and evaluate the classic 70s and 80s horror movies they loved in their childhood to determine whether the movies are still relevant today or should be allowed to fade into obscurity.
Bring Me The Axe! concludes its exploration of the Halloween legacy just in time for Halloween with an epic-length love letter to John Carpenter, Debra Hill, and their landmark creation. Halloween represents a major paradigm shift in horror movie and sets the pace for every horror movie that came in its wake. It's elegant. Every piece of the production is working in perfect harmony with the other pieces. The end-product is greater than the sum of its parts. It is a perfect horror movie and it's not surprising in the least that everyone is still obsessed with it.
