Summary: The perfect conclusion
Review: Warning-some spoilers ahead.This is an excellent entry in the series and is right up there with the first two films.It's a huge improvement over parts 4-6,although it seems to throw away the plots of those.Directer Miner does a fantastic job and this is easily one of his best.The story and script is above average and the plot is great. Mike's mask is also better than ever.Chris Durand is pretty good at playing Myers and the acting is great.The film isn't that gory but is pretty scary.The ending is decent,though a bit of a disappointment considering that Mike got killed! Oh well.The film still rocks.Overall,this is a huge improvment over the last three,but can;t live up to the brilliance of the first two films. I still highly recommend it.Rated R-contains gory violence and some strong language.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Michael Myers should stay dead !
Review: I have never been a huge fan of the HALLOWEEN-Saga. Part 1 absolutely sucks and does not deserve to be called a classic. Part 2 is brutal, but also very boring. Part 3 does not belong in that series anyway, but Part 4 is quite OK. Parts 5 and 6 are totally disappointing, and it is a shame that HALLOWEEN 6 happened to be the very last movie to star the great actor Donald Pleasence. Part 7 HALLOWEEN H20 is watchable, but only because Steve Miner was the director. Miner did a great job by making FRIDAY THE 13TH Parts 2 and 3. At the end of HALLOWEEN H20 we get to see a decapitated Michael Myers. I hope that this is the end of Michael and HALLOWEEN. I think the Jason-flicks are ten times more entertaining than the HALLOWEEN-movies, while Pinhead from HELLRAISER is ten times more scary than Michael Myers. Dear horror movie fans, if You want to see an atmospheric and dark slasher movie, than go and rent FRIDAY THE 13TH Part 4 - THE FINAL CHAPTER. That is a real cool and creepy film.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good, but could be better
Review: One can get tired of the "slash-em-up" style. Needed more element of surprise and suspense instead of straight-forward murder.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: It was just like the first one
Review: This has to be one of the worst Halloween sequels I have ever seen. Why would they have Michael Myers wait 20 years? I mean I think that's a stupid idea (no offense). This movie wasn't that scary, there is only like about two scenes that are scary but the rest of the movie sucks and it's so dumb. I also can't beleive that they are busy making another one and I hope that's the last Halloween movie. But if it is the last Halloween movie please don't make anymore it's getting kind of annoying by the way they are making so many sequels that don't turn out to be good. So if I were you I would stick with the first one don't even bother of renting this movie you'll be disappointed.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very entertaining!
Review: I sometimes find myself disliking this film. But I must now say, it is another winner from Steve Miner, who did the classics Friday the 13th Part 2&3 and House. His Warlock was also really cool. Unfortunately his latest flick, Lake Placid was pretty bad, except for some cool gore and funny humor. Anyway, I will say this film didn't have to steer clear completely from the others in the series after Part 2. Because there are a lot of series fans that like 4-6. The filmmakers made the film with a cool pacing. NOTE : The film has a lot of scores from other horror flicks like, Scream, Wes Craven's New Nightmare etc.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ok movie sequel but rather poor DVD
Review: I'm a fan of Jamie Lee Curtis and so I bought this and while the movie was ok for being what it was, a tribute sequel to a successful long-running horror series as well as a tribute to the horror thriller genre (the scene between Jamie and her mother, famous for Pyscho was excellent!)

For the cost of the DVD and what it represents, I expected MUCH more in the way of extras. In fact, the box advertises a commentary but doesnt actually have it! I returned my copy because of this and will not buy this movie again unless it's released as a special edition or as part of a box set like the Nightmare on Elm Street movies.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: H20:20 Years Later....Yeah 20 Years And Its Still Boring....
Review: Ok that was an over-statement,the movie is pretty good but it sort of lacks that horroe-esqe vibe.It could of been a little longer and the ending could of been ALOT better!When my cousin saw this in the theater she said all of the people stared booing at the end.This has it's good and bad moments,It is in my collection{DVD}. You should see it to make you on thoughts.Please do not exept mine,until you see it.It is a high 3.

Summary: one of the worst of the series
Review: H20 is a major disappointment. It ranks with 3(Season of the Witch, a non-Michael Myers sequel in name only) & part 6 as the worst of the Halloween flicks. I have always considered Michael to be the best slasher character since the original Halloween was first released. I wanted to like this, I really did, but it was terrible. The story was pathetic, the climax was anything but climactic, the acting was lackluster, and Michael just wasn't as menacing as he's supposed to be. The only good moment in the film is when Jamie Lee and her mother(PSYCHO) have an amusing verbal exchange in the parking lot...nothing to build a movie around. I'm a Halloween fan, but, man...this was BAD. I'd advise you to stick with the first two movies, if you need more, then skip three and skip this!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Revived, not ruined
Review: For those of us who have followed the Halloween movies from the beginning, let me offer a little advice to those who have not. Watch Halloween, Halloween 2 and H20, and don't even bother to watch any of the poorly made, low budget sequels that were made inbetween. Usually,they stray from the original plot and try to "out do" or "out gross" the previous attempt, and in the end they make a mockery out of the series. That's why I was so pleased with H20. A little dissapointed too, but still pleased. Although the director picked up where #2 left off (thank god), he also falls into what I refer to as "The scream theme." What I mean by that is, he adds too many newer, qualities of today's film making into movie. Laurie's messy headed son (the kid from The Faculty, I forget his name, and LL Cool J (Cool J is cool, but he's no actor), when he should have gone back to Carpenter's style of having unknowns in those parts, to give a sense of newness to the film. Other than that, I think it was a sincere attempt to give the Micheal Myers legacy it's respect back. Worth adding to the collection.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A GREAT IMPROVEMENT OVER THE 2ND-6TH
