WWE United States Champion Damian Priest thinks everyone should check out “Halloween Kills” this spooky season.
The film, which continues the horrifying adventures of Michael Myers, came out on October 15, and “The Archer of Infamy” spoke highly of it in a tweet the day of its release.
“Loved #HalloweenKills,” wrote Priest. “Awesome job by @jamesjcourtney and all involved. Highly recommend!” #HalloweenMovie”

In an interview with ComingSoon ahead of the films release, Anthony Michael Hall, who plays Tommy Doyle in the movie, reflected on the enduring popularity of Myers. He explained that “classical” aspects of the character’s persona are appealing to viewers:
“There’s actually a very limited mythology of Myers,” said Michael Hall. “When you think about it, we don’t really know what makes him tick, but it’s that idea of storytelling is as old as the world. I think the idea of good versus evil, once again, this character that’s a stalker, he’s a predator, he’s the boogeyman. I think that there are some kind of classical things about this kind of evil character, but at the same time, people love it.
“Just like they love Laurie and Jamie Lee’s character. So I think it’s a fascinating thing that he kind of embodies and personifies human evil. At the same time, he’s something otherworldly as well because he just represents that kind of darkness in the world.”
