This week on Opening Kill, we dive into Halloween Ends, the baffling conclusion to the rebooted trilogy. As always, we run through the plot (good luck making sense of it), count the bodies, and hand out our Butcher Knife or Butter Knife award for the opening kill. Let's just say expectations were stabbed—and not in a good way. Tune in for the carnage, the confusion, and a few laughs as we try to figure out what the hell happened to Michael Myers.

In this episode of Opening Kill, we're diving into the chaos of Cloverfield – the found-footage monster movie that redefined viral marketing and left audiences dizzy (literally and figuratively). We break down the film's plot, discuss the mysterious monster tearing through Manhattan, and spotlight the kills that made this a standout creature feature. Plus, we unpack the insane marketing campaign that had everyone scouring the internet for clues months before the film even dropped. It's shaky cams, split torsos, and government coverups – and we're here for all of it.
