Summary: The curse of Michael Meyers
Review: Michael Meyers has never been scarier!! While this movie wasnt the best of the series I can honestly say that next to the original it is the creepiest. the music, mask, & the idea of the curse of thorn makes this movie a must have for "halloween" fans!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween 666
Review: I have always been a sucker for the Halloween movies and would go see them in the theater. And in my opinion this movie was an excellent addition. Nothing will ever compare to the original, which changed the way I feel about "horror movies" forever.
OK, about this one...it actually has an atmosphere that comes close to the first. Of course some of the writting and acting needs help, but as a whole is credible. If you can get your hands on the producer's cut...DO IT. Gives a whole new twist on the movie. If you enjoyed H4, you will like this one.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: it aint that bad
Review: ok look michael myers is my fav ceriel killin dude or watever they call it in that genre. when i saw the movie it really is a waste of time. its not very good at all compared to other halloween movies. and for horror fans this movie is not worth time. it aint scary. after tha movie was over i was like ...... is that a halloween movie?? but for serious fans like me for this series u must atleast c it once although its not good. and its about time that old guy dies. the ending was also crummy. tha only good part is wen tha guy gets electricuted. i wouldve gave this movie 3 stars instead of 2 but on tha front cover it said best halloween movie ever. so i gave it a score lower for quoting stupid stuff.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Creepy
Review: Finally, a Halloween movie that captures the "evil" persona that Dr. Loomis constantly makes reference to in the previous Halloween movies. This movie highlights the ghoulish appearance and satanic nature that Michael Myers should exude. Not a great-GREAT movie but it will entertain and [really scare you good]. The biggest flaw is that Michael is a bit too evil that he tends to come off a lil' Jason Vorhees-ish. The movie does not show Michael's human side. "You know", driving, hiding, reading etc. But part 6 is far better than part 5. Atleast on substance.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A waste of time and film.
Review: This movie is dull. It is the worst Halloween film I've seen and I have not even seen all of them yet (I have only seen 1,2,4,5, and this one). In fact, I only saw 15 minutes of this and turned it off and then saw the rest of it and regretted it. Skip this and stick with the aforementioned installments. The only saving grace is Donald Pleasence, who turns in his final performance, but it isnt much of one (a saving grace, that is).

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: For what it's worth, a pretty good horror movie...
Review: As a pre-teen, I loved the Halloween movies. Michael Myers was just such a great character for me: scary, insane, methodical and unstoppable. Nothing has really changed since then. I'm still a big fan of this franchise and always find something to like in one of these films (except for the dreadful Season of the Witch). So on that basis, the Curse of Michael Myers didn't fail to entertain or make me jump occasionally. I think it's gotten much more bad press than it deserves.

But I won't lie and say it's a perfect movie; quite the opposite. It's pretty flawed and messes with the Halloween mythos big time. So much so that once H20 came along, it decided to ignore the somewhat silly revelations in this movie (and the two that preceeded it) and stick to the basics that Halloween 1 & 2 followed. It turns out that Michael is part of a cult called "Thorn" led by a mysterious man in a black hat and coat (the same guy who walked around town with seemingly no real purpose in Halloween 5) named Wynn. Apparently, Wynn thinks he has some sort of control over Michael and tells him that he must kill his family. In other news, Michael's niece from the fourth and fifth film, Jamie, has a baby boy who the cult wants possession of so that he can either follow Michael's footsteps and become the new killer on the block or just become Michael's last victim; I'm not quite sure which one. After Jamie is killed by Uncle Mike, Tommy Doyle (the little boy from the first film) finds the baby in a bathroom at a bus terminal and takes him in. Later in the film, Tommy befriends a little boy who's family just so happens to live in Michael Myers' house.

Some of it is a little convenient and confusing, but who cares? This isn't Chinatown or the Godfather. This is Halloween! As long as the body count rises and we get to see Michael stalk helpless, horny young adults, I'm satisfied. This film also offers some pretty cool death sequences, especially the part where someone's head explodes during electrocution.

It's not the best in the series, but I think it's certainly better than the fifth one or Halloween: Resurrection. And it's light years better than Season of the Witch. Worth a rental to most; worth the price to own for me.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A stinker
Review: I haven't seen all of the Halloweens yet but this is the worst one I saw so far. I saw 1,4,7, and 8. Of course 1 was good, 7 was ok, 4 I don't remember much cuz I seen it a long time ago but I don't remember hating it, and 8 I strangely really liked. This one was boring, confusing and stupid. Not even for the completist.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Horrible! How could this be part of the Halloween Series?
Review: As I said how could this be part of the Michael Myers/Halloween series?? The plot was horrible, the acting was the worst ive ever seen in any movie, and so much more! What just happened to the basic plot of the original Halloween? Now they have a cult plot with a family thats not even related to the Myers, and a "mysterious man dressed in black" Wow! How could they even talk about all that ancient writing stuff in the first place? Michael killed his sister and went after the rest of his family period, it had nothing to do with ancient signs or cults at all. And as I mentioned the acting Oh my God Ive never wanted to yell so badly at a movie before in my life. I feel so bad that this was Donald Pleasence's last movie he got to be in, they barley showed him and he had nothing to do with the plot (if there even was a plot??) at all! Also one of the main reasons why this movie wasent scary was becuase they barley had any music at all and when they did it was soft music, how could you be scared by that? I didnt hear John Carpenters original music once except in the intro (I think). Also to top it all off very bad camera angles which showed the same thing scene after scene, and that couldent of been the true Michael Myers for this one just plain sucked!

My advice for all of you is to watch the first two Halloween's, watch four, watch five if you really feel like you need to, skip six, watch seven, and just pretend that Halloween Ressurection never happened. Oh and also watch the third Halloween like it had had nothing to do with the rest of the series then youll see that it actually was quite good.
