Summary: In memory of Donald Pleasence
Review: Okay. This movie is gory. Many blood scenes. But what horror movie is horror without blood. Okay, back to the review. Michael Mask is so much better than the forth one. the fifth wasn't as bad as people say. Anyways it looks like the original. Tommy Doyle is Back! He was one of my favorite sub charachters from the original.(I guess he died his hair brown) If you care my least favorite sub charachter was....Well I forgot her name in the movie but it's P.J. Soles. Anyways, it was creepy suspenseful and gory. This is what a horror movie needs. Donald Pleasence was perfect (as always). Although his part was not as big as I'd hoped. The Shape was pretty good so all in all it was a great movie. But, if you're new to the series my suggestion is to see them in this order, Halloween, Halloween II, Halloween H20, Halloween 4, 5, 6. See IT. Rated R for gore, violence, language, and nudity.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: ONE OF THE BEST HALLOWEEN MOVIES!
Review: This is one of my favorite Halloween movies probably since it explains a lot about the series. Defenatly get this one!

RATED R: FOR STRONG TERROR VIOLENCE AND FOR SOME LANGUGE AND NUDITY AND FOR SOME BRIEF SEXUALITY

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Scariest Halloween Yet!
Review: Halloween 6 was probably the scariest Halloween yet. It gets right off to Michael's killing spree, killing a nurse in probably the first 10 minutes of the film. The music (especially the return of the "chase" music), scenery, setting, and sound effects create a suspensful edge-of-your seat atmosphere. A good attempt to recreate the classic mask from 1 & 2 was made, doing away with the featureless mask from 4 & 5. A few drawbacks though; Jamie Lloyd returns, but her age doesn't match up with the time frame of the series, also the hospital scenes are very confusing, trying to figure out what is going on with all the fetuses and the baby gets viewers totally lost. All in all though, it is an edge-of-your-seat thriller, with the classic Michael we all remember!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Movie So Totally Reeks of Awsomeness
Review: I disagree with most reviews, this is the best Halloween in the series. I don't care what other people have written, I think the mask in this movie is the best mask since H1. If you like the series you'll love this edition, the music rules. The theme in this one is really cool, and the song they play while Michael stalks someone is the best version they've ever made. The only bad part is the story. It's kinda wierd, but its still very cool. This was a great movie. So if you didn't like H5, but your still wondering who that man in black is( and what the symbol on Michaels arm means) this will answer most of you questions

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cool Halloween movie.
Review: This was a very thrilling but yet slow movie.The way the story was placed was a cool idea. Michael looking his best is slashing up victims who are in his home. Buy this one and you will be scared. (This house is sacred to him. This is his rage.)

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Continuity problems again!
Review: As I stated in my review of No. 5, there are continuity problems in the Halloween series that serious detract from their quality.

Here we have relatives of Laurie Strode's foster parents living in the old Myers house. We go from the castle looking home in No. 5 to a regular old home in No. 6. Plus, the Myers house has been deserted since 1963 when Michael killed his first sister. Who would want to take the time to rebuild such an old relic? It would have been better if they had said they built a new home on the Myers old lot.

Also, why was the number 6 not put on the video box? Parts 2-5 have the number. Just nitpicking here, I guess.

Anyway, I agree with another review I saw that said things were not thoroughly explained in this installment. We realize that Jamie and Michael disappeared six years earlier from the Haddonfield jail after the explosion and "jail break." Jamie is now in labor having a child. Who is the father? Why was this not expounded on further? Was she artificially inseminated in an experiment to try and harness the evil of her uncle?

Plus, why is it that Michael has not slaughtered his keepers? He does so later on in the film, but apparently Dr. Winn had some kind of control over him, because they send him after Jamie when she escapes with her baby.

The best part of the storyline is the character of Tommy Doyle. A survivor of the Part I massacre, he is now a grown man who is as obsessed with Michael Myers as Dr. Loomis. His wall is covered with newspaper articles that help explain what he is doing. This was a good part of continuity.

No. 4 was good but it kept going downhill in No. 5 and No. 6. I was glad to see Jamie Lee Curtis revive her role in H2O. It was a nice piece of work that improved greatly on No. 6.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Icky, silly trash.
Review: This is one dumb movie.

As a huge fan of Michael Myers, I was terribly disappointed with this. First of all, Michael is a frumpy, beer-bellied leviathan who slouches through hallways. Gone is the methodical pacing walk that made him so scary in other films. His mask is a pathetic attempt at recreating the frightening mask of the first and second films. Second, the storyline is so full of pseudo-magickal drivel that is practically destroys the mythos surrounding Michael in the previous installations (except 5, of course, in which they mistakenly introduced this whole runic/Thorn business). All I can say is, thank God H:20 came along and pretended that this movie had never been made. If only that were the truth.

Don't watch it. It kills brain cells.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Scariest Halloween movie
Review: Halloween 6 Curse Of Micahel Myers is the scariest and best Halloween sequel ever released. The story line, plot, and film is wonderful. It is worth reniting, and buying. The Dvd comes with no features except Widescreen, French and english language track. The following sequel Halloween H20 is good to, but not as good as this one. Also: Make sure you catch the 8th installment to the Halloween sereis: "Halloween H2K: Evil Never Dies", which wasn't as good as the rest.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween 6 rating
Review: Halloween 6 is pretty cool i liked the man in black idea and that michael had a child. and i think they should make the child be the killer in 8 since they are making a number 8. but in halloween 6 they had some pretty sweet deaths and it was cool. c-ya bye

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Bring on Halloween 8
Review: Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers is not all that bad. A lot of people are too hard on how it was done. The whole Thorn idea was kinda cool but it could have been done a lot better. I agree that there are a lot of plot holes and mistakes (ex. the mask, jamie, etc) but it wasn't too bad. I don't agree with the amount of gore that is displayed throughout however, it is no worse than any of the Jason movies. If you're a true Halloween fan than you'll watch it. Even though some parts make you laugh or make you mad, deal with it. Besides, for all you critics out there, do you think you could make a better movie?

Now for the next part. As most of you true fans should now, Halloween 8 is in the process of being developed. Shooting is schedule for Spring 2001 so they are probably just deciding on a script right now. Let's hope they stay away from the whole Thorn idea. It wasn't done right in 6 and I doubt it will be done right in 8. So here's hoping that it's back to basic Michael!
