Viewing Notes

6th feature film at the Music Box Massacre 7 and maybe the one I wanted to see the most having never seen this film on the big screen. The 35mm print was one of the most faded, washed out prints I’ve seen. Nearly all pink. I wasn’t complaining b/c it was a treat to see a film like this w/a print that’s probably been screened 100s of times.

The odd thing was viewing this after having seen the Halloween: The Inside Story TV movie only days before… it’s like every little item / blooper I noticed. Can’t say it didn’t affect my viewing b/c I was distracted noticing all of these. Still happy I got to see a print of this after all these years.
