Halloween (1978)
Manage episode 343732259 series 3401006
Listen in this as we analyze final girl Laurie Strode played by Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween! In 1963 Michael Myers brutally killed his sister Judith and was then placed under the care of Dr. Loomis at Smith's Grove Sanitarium. After fifteen years under his care, Michael escapes the day before Halloween in 1978 to continue what he started in Haddonfield at age 6. We see Laurie as a somewhat introverted and timid high school student with a strong head on her shoulders who has plans of babysitting Halloween night. Can Dr. Loomis make it in time to stop this masked evil from terrorizing the town of Haddonfield? Will Laurie be able to defeat the boogeyman to save herself and the children she's babysitting? Grab a blanket to cozy up as we unpack details about how Laurie tries to survive this dreadful terrifying night!
Real life final girl Cynthia Vigil escaped the demonic torture of the Toy Box Killer named David Ray Parker and girlfriend Cindy Hendy. She was held captive for three days while unspeakable things were done to her, yet, somehow in all of the despair, she found the inner strength and will to survive. This is a bone-chilling tale of a real life bad ass woman who fought back when confronted with pure human evil!
