Halloween isn’t a day. It’s a state of mind.

“Some people never got over Vietnam or the night their band opened for Nirvana. I guess Cinesthesia never got over Halloween.”
— Rob Fidelity

They just can’t stop! Jim and Jason could talk about literally anything they want, but their brains are permanently trapped in the world of tricks and treats. This week, The Boys take a scattershot look at the convoluted history of one Michael “Halloween is my middle name” Halloween Myers, the once and future king of slashers, who is also maybe a puppet of Celtic witchcraft and an absentee father? Carve those pumpkins, kids, it’s time for a Halloween Hangover.

Revisit Cinesthesia’s Hell to the King: 31 Days of Stephen King film adaptations

Join a filmmaker (and sometimes film teacher) and a film teacher (and sometimes filmmaker) as they venture into the dark heart of their own befuddled relationship to culture, the youth, the internet, friendship, love, hate, time, space and, of course: *m*o*v*i*e*s*. Come hear what we see.

CINESTHESIA is produced by Iguanodonald Studios and distributed by Split Tooth Media. Music for Cinesthesia is generously provided by the greatest bands that have ever been, The Coctails and Soft Healer
