The Silver Linings Playlist
Not every movie wraps up with a neat little bow on the end. Some leave you asking "what the f@#$?!" We're here to find the silver lining in the latter. Join Dustin, Mallie, and Nathan every Monday as we try to find the light at the end of the tunnel for some of cinema's bleakest endings - and have some laughs while doing so.

Episode 208: Halloween II (1981)
Parting is always such sweet sorrow, but don’t be so down that Season 8 has come to an end; be glad it happened in the first place. And we’re not leaving for our brief hiatus just yet because we have yet another film to discuss in the Michael Myers canon, and it’s the very divisive Halloween II from 1981. This one introduced the backstory that seemingly everyone hated, but if you look beyond that, there’s a very good Halloween movie here with even more great Dean Cundey photography, entertaining kills, and scampy Michael behavior. So for one last time this season, take a sedative and make yourself a blood-ham sandwich as you listen to us discuss the movie, as well as how to eat a Reese’s incorrectly (and how to pronounce it properly), Michael Myers’s proficiency at Call of Duty, and most crucially: the importance of every hospital’s “C.E.U.” division.
Thank you once again for an incredible season and for sticking with us through these tumultuous times. Be sure to sign up for our Patreon where the show doesn’t stop. We’ll be back later this year!
Halloween II (1981) stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence, and Dick Warlock. Directed by Rick Rosenthal.
