15 Insanely Awesome 2018 Movie One Liners

12. "Oh, You're The New Loomis" - Halloween

The new Halloween sequel had a lot of fun paying homage to the original movie, and it never proved more hilariously self-aware than when Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) was introduced to Dr. Sartain (Haluk Bilginer), the successor to Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) from the original run of movies.

As soon as Laurie meets Sartain, she knowingly quips, "Oh, you're the new Loomis." Given that Halloween reboots many elements from the original movie for a new generation, it's all too apt that Laurie draws attention to this fact while just barely stopping short of winking at the audience.
