Summary: Scary? I think NOT!
Review: I LOVE the Halloween movie series, but Halloween H20 is one of the worst since Halloween 3! Take the following things for example:

1. Not even really scary! 2. Almost NO gore at all! 3. It acted if as Halloween 4-6 never happened! 4. The storyline is just stupid! 5. Not even the REAL Michael Myers....I think!

This is very bad! If you still want to see this, DO NOT buy it....a waste of money! Just rent it or something.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awful movie
Review: I am a big fan of the first Halloween. It's my favorite horror movie (that and The Shining) I liked the second one too. This movie absolutely does not do the series justice. It wasn't scary at all but was in fact stupid and boring! I was so disappointed. Don't waste your money on this one. Good thing I only rented it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great to return to the original storyline!
Review: It was great to see Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), the original and best heroine, running from Michael again. It was a little disappointing moving miles away from Haddonfield, but seeing old faces made up for that. Michael was a bit different in this one. I loved the opening scene, and I really like the 'Sandman' song. John Carpenter's original theme was only played once (the very end), and that was a little disappointing. Although I would hate to see Michael go, HALLOWEEN H2O would be a great finale to the series :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent movie!
Review: Of all the halloween movies made, this one tops 'em all! It was clever, well written, and, of course, scary! It kept the gore down just as it did in the previous movies, but made the suspense higher! The mask was much better than Halloween 2-6! They used a variety, but in the end, it looked much like the original. Overall, terrific movie! Now I'm waiting for HalloweeN: H2K

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A KING'S FAREWELL
Review: Yes, the grandfather of gore was laid to rest in a sequel that finally gives the villain the respect they diserve. If your a fan of the Halloween series and have not yet purchased this DVD I humbly ask that you at least give it a look. The techincal attributes of the disc itself are suitable; with great visual, and excellent audio aspects. The bios are great but the trivia game is a bit easy. But after the film has ended I doubt any of that will resurface. The begining is typical (but good) slasher, with the "opening kill" and character lead in. The set up is beautiful thanks in part to the magnificant work of Jamie lee curtis, revealing her day to day struggle with her demons. Micheal himself also recieved a bit of a facelift for his debut. The great thing about this picture is that it keeps everything in the spirit of the original, with those great POV (point of view) shots made famous by the film. A few humorous areas also lighten the tension. The omage to Psycho was brilliant. Notice the wispering of the Psycho theme in the background as Janet leigh speaks to Curtis. Ingenious! I actually started clapping in appreciation the first time I saw in theatres. (yes that was me). And when Curtis's character arc comes full circle and she becomes the persuer, even calling out Micheal himself fans will nod in appreciation. A must own for the horror in everyone.AND THAT'S OFFICIAL..

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Sorry...
Review: Lets get this straight, I'm a long time Halloween fan and take it from me, this sequel does not do any justice to the previous ones, save for 3 and 6. I really thought that Miner was on to something during the first half. There were some scary scenes and I enjoyed the classic slashing Michael uses to pick the kids but as soon as Jamie discovers that he's after her, the movie just loses it. Everything becomes predictable, dumb, fake and not scary whatsoever. I did like Janet Leigh's cameo appearance though. I can almost compare Curtis to Linda Hamilton in Terminator...in the original, she was shy and innocent, then later she appears as tough and fearless...it least it worked in T2. I particularly found it dumb when she was calling Michael's name looking for him...come on! He ain't stalking her, she's stalking him! All said, this COULD have been done better.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pure Garbage
Review: First off, A NO STAR rating for this crap! Mrs. Curtis a.k.a. Jamie Lee came back on this ego trip to exorcise her so-called type casting. Her self-serving influence reeks in this terrible plot. For someone who echos Halloween made her career possible, she seems awfully resentful of her Halloween past. Calling out Michael and then conveniently has him at her mercy to behead him. What a joke, who wrote this excrement? If not for Myers presence, this would have taken the title from Halloween III as the worst. The teen, garbage actors are a disgrace. They would have been better off casting mannequins. Is ll cool j (or what ever he calls himself) an actor? He's not even a musician. But, that's another story. As long as we pump the money into these inferior works, Hollywood will continue to produce such crap. Like, Halloween III, this one is forgotten. Turn the page. Save your money for the release of H2K. Hopefully, they'll get it right this time. Another example of how bad the industry has become.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: H20
Review: The past decade has seen the fall of the horror movie we used to know and love, horror movies are no longer suspenseful, nowadays they consintrate on the teen casts, and their lifes. Its the same in H20, they should have called it "I know what you did last summer with micheal myers". What happened to the genuine horror films of the 70's and 80's.
