Summary: 20 YEARS LATER
Review: THIS MOVIE HAD ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT I THOUGHT IT WAS A GREAT MOVIE.JAMIE LEE CURTIS GAVE ANOTHER REMARKABLE PERFORMANCE AS LAURIE STRODE. THIS WAS PROBLY ONE OF THE BEST SCARY MOVIE OF 1998.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Best of the rest....
Review: A great movie.That about sums up all there is to say about H20.It has thrills,laughs,links to a golden past(halloween) and a lot of that mid/late 90's slasher movie power in it.Further more i'd like to point out that this is the decade's true alternative to the Scream films.Scream still rules but H20 is as close to it as it gets.Go buy it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good but not great
Review: The Halloween series is one of the best horror series out there. I personally think every entry to this series was good to a point, i like em all. Now Halloween H20 is a very ver good movie, but it seems to miss some of the magic and atmoshpere of the other films; including three. I think that H20 shoud tied in ALL the entries but alsa it only focuses on 1-2. The thorn sub polt is great, and gives a little clarity to the celtic word written in blood in part 2. Hopefully in the next entry they will tie in EVERYTHING. I also that the movie pack in the suspense, but the scares were limited for me since the mask in all my bluntness is stupid looking. It seems to show to much expression. In the other films the mask looked like pure unadultrted evil. If they had another mask from any of the other movies I would believe that this movie would have been a lot higher in the scare factor.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Scary
Review: That's all I have to say.This is no Halloween part 1,a gem of a slasher movie,but it's better(WAY better)than Halloween 6,which was a scary as well,but plodding and an unoriginal piece of tripe that leaves you scratching your head in befuddlement.

It's twenty years later and Micheal has come back for another round of mass murder.This time he manages to pull it all off with style,and much suspense abounds.Originality is still a problem however,as this is a virtual composite of Halloween 1,and 2,Black Christmas,Friday the the 13th parts 1,2,3,and 4,and Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer too of course.Nothing really new here see,and it does miss out on some chances to shake up the audience favoring some rather dull stretches of exposition.

The last thirty minutes borders continually on dumb but a somewhat unexpected twist in the end and some smatterings of the original Halloween theme more or less make up for this.Ultimately this comes off as a diverting retread with fresh faces and Jaime Lee back in scream queen mode to spice things up.Worth at least a rental.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Best of the Halloween sequels
Review: Halloween: H20 was the first of the Halloween's that I saw. But after seeing it, I was dead-set on seeing each and every one of them. Within a year I saw all of them. The first, of course, is classic, and tops all the others by far. This one however adds more of a modern day spin to the series. It was better than the rest of the sequels, but I must admit that the trailer creeped me out more than the movie itself. The DVD itself was great. The sound and picture were incredible. I was disappointed to find that there was no trailer on it, and no commentary. The trivia game was pretty cool. Overall, I would suggest this film and DVD to anybody who is a fan of the series, or horror movies in general.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great conclusion.
Review: This is one of those great 90's horror. And believe me, there aren't many of those. Although a little more appealing to the typical Scream crowd than the other Halloween movies are, this is still a very well plotted movie with the return of one of the best actresses, Jamie Lee Curtis.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween: H20, A Mixed Blessing
Review: This movie has good and bad points to it. First, the bad points. It is just a little too much like "Scream" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer", which are good movies, but after a while, get old. The only other complaint I have is the running time. It is way too short for my liking. Now, the good aspects of the film. It is great to see Jaime Lee Curtis again! Jodi Lynn O'Keefe's chase scene is great. I also really liked the gate scene (with Michael swinging that big knife through the bars). The acting is good and the actors are well-cast. And, lastly, I'm glad the writers dropped the whole Thorn sub-plot because I really thought it was stupid. (You have to see Halloween 5 & 6 to see what I mean). Anyway, this is a pretty good film. Not, the worst film in the series, best not the best either.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Halloween ..er one minute oh yea, Halloween 20.
Review: I am not an avid fan of the Halloween series. Yes I have seen most of them. Jamie Lee Curtis, this is a reason to see this film. As usual her acting is without comparrison. This film passed my expectations in being a genuinely very good horror film. The actors performed very well, the script was better than average. Lots of blood. It even had a little suspence. This film is a good buy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: "Halloween: H20" DVD Review
Review: "Halloween: H20" is a worthy sequel to the original, and the DVD is great, although the Audio Commentary listed on the back of the DVD is NOT present. The trivia game is pretty cool, as is the "Unmasking the Horror" featurette. "Halloween: H20" is short, but scary. You'll enjoy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The 2nd best Halloween
Review: This could have been even better if they would go back to the orginals and didn't do the "SCream" Approach to h20. Like every other Teen Horror films they have the Opening Kill then go limp until the last 45 minutes. I gave H20 5* because of the acting jobs of Jamie Lee Curtis Aka Laurie Strode{Mrs. Tate} and Michelle Williams Who in her young carrer is one of the best actresses in the flied. Not scary but a lot of hummor makes up for this rather comendy more then a horror film
