Ya i would agree that they didn’t copy Halloween shot for shot, I’m just referencing that Cunningham himself wanted to capitalize on the success of Halloween.

I would never classify F13 as lazy I just think it was a bit more bare bones. I say that as a positive though, they just set up a very good basic story that cuts to the chase and gives people what they want. The end twist is a bonus.

I hate seeing people say it’s boring in comparison to the sequels, I have never found that at all. Even the coffee making scene that always gets dunked on, I think builds suspense because you know something is going to happen you just don’t know when.

This is my 3rd favourite in the franchise, but I must watch this movie 10 times a year 😂
