It's got Christian Bale in it, and it's got up-and-coming names that are going to be big, and McG directed the thing so it can't be bad, right? RIGHT? It's the best one ever, RIGHT?!?!?! Should probably listen to the episode and find out just how great this film

Bad Days in Haddonfield Ep. 13: Halloween Ends (2022)

Binge Buddies ·

2023/02/13

Welcome to another pulse-pounding episode of "Bad Days in Haddonfield." This week the Binge Buddies, comprised of Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Giggles" Dykes, Joel "Captain Obvious" DeWitte, and Ryan "Comedy Central" Lootens come together to talk about "Halloween Ends," which at the very least is better than "Kills." That said, it's a little of a different movie than one might expect given the advertising. Start "listening" to "see" for yourself. Oh wait.

Bad Days in Haddonfield Ep. 12: Halloween Kills (2020)

2023/02/06

This week on Bad Days in Haddonfield, Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Baby Face" Dykes, Joel "Tater Tot" DeWitte, and Ryan "Tootsie Pop" Lootens sit down and absolutely murder the second film in the modern Halloween trilogy: Halloween Kills.

2022/12/19

This week on Bad Days in Haddonfield the Binge Buddies, comprised of Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Stu Macher" Dykes, and Joel "Amber Freeman" DeWitte, tackle the sequel to Rob Zombie's "Halloween," aptly titled "Halloween 2." It's a natural progression to Zombie's interpretation of the characters, but that doesn't necessarily mean its any good. It's not boring, at least!NOTE: This is the last Binge Buddies of the year. We will be back later in January with the final Halloween trilogy, starting

Binge Buddies ·

2022/12/12

This week on Bad Days in Haddonfield, Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Debbi Loomis" Dykes, and Joel "Richie Kirsch" DeWitte come together to discuss "Halloween." No. Not that one. The Rob Zombie one.

Bad Days in Haddonfield Ep. 8: Halloween Resurrection

Binge Buddies ·

2022/12/05

Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog" Dykes, Joel DeWitte, and Ryan Lootens (in a shotgun review) join forces to dog on the absolute pile that is known as "Halloween Resurrection."

2022/11/21

Welcome to another exciting episode of Bad Days in Haddonfield, in which our Binge Buddies Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Chucky" Dykes, and Ryan "Zuzu" Lootens join forces to toil their way through the schizophrenic producer's cut of Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Meyers. Lot of oddities to be found in this film compared to the previous and it may be the lowest the franchise has descended so far in quality. Don't worry, though. It's all uphill from here....maybe.

Welcome to another exciting episode of Bad Days in Haddonfield. This week Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Jason Voorhees" Dykes, and Ryan "Michael Myers" Lootens sit down to talk about the weird course-change that is "Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers." Get ready for a big ol' dose of "what the hell is this?" Is the franchise in trouble? Will the 6th movie save the day?NOTE: The audio has some frustrating issues part-way through the episode, so apologies and thank you for your patience and

Michael Myers is back, babyyy! This week on "Bad Days in Haddonfield" Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog" (oops, "Tall Man") Dykes, Ryan "Dr. Giggles" Looten, and Joel "Clownzilla" DeWitte sit down to discuss "Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers."

Hi and welcome to the (somewhat late) next exciting episode of Bad Days in Haddonfield, our look back at the Halloween Franchise over the years. Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Ghostface" Dykes, Ryan "Harry Warden" Lootens, and Joel "Grant Grant" DeWitte sit down to talk about the divisive "Halloween III: Season of the Witch," which features no Michael Myers and has nothing to do with the movies surrounding it.
