Summary: AWESOME
Review: How can people hate this movie? I am a HUGE fan of the Halloween Series, and I have to say, the people who gave this movie a bad review are such losers that they don't deserve to see another movie again. ANYWAY....Michael Myers, a maniac from hell is back in this powerful #8 in the series. He finds Laurie at a mental hospital and kills her. Then he goes after a bunch of thrill seeking college students who are camped out in his house for the night. Broadcast over the internet are the feeds from inside the house. Everything goes according to plan until Mikey himself decides to crash the party. I won't spoil the ending, but I will say this: Never, I say NEVER underestimate Mikey. 5 stars. 5. I'm looking forward to #9.

Summary: Halloween - Resurrection-
Review: This movie was flawed in many ways. H20 was one of the best of the series with the greatest ending and this movie killed it(not in the good way). We know that Micheal Myers is invincible, so they didn't need to ruin H20s ending and come up with a bad excuse for why he is still around. Second, I was dissapointed that Jamie Lee Curtis part was so short. They really advertised the film like she had a big part in it, but the small part she is in is great. Tyra Banks didn't need to be in the movie, unless she was going to get topless. She was absoloutly useless in the movie.... Last, I am very angry that Buster Rymes was beating up Micheal Myers and winning. The directors must be really stupid if they think Micheal Myers fans want Buster to be the winner instead of our favorite(Myers). The DVD does contain some decent extras. Check out the alternate endings and see how this movie almost became a chick horror flick. As [bad] as the real ending to this movie was, they picked the best of all the ones they shot. The only thing saving this film is if Buster is in the sequal and gets killed very violently.

Summary: A great film!!!
Review: The Halloween series is one of the best horror series around because unlike other horror series like A Nightmare On Elm Street and Friday The 13th it's plot doesn't get stupid after the third film! After the unexpected conclusion of Halloween H20 all of the film's fans wondered "Will Michael come back as we've always known him". Luckily the explanation of H20's ending was extremely well thought of! Anyway here is the plot . . . It's been three years since H20 and Laurie Strode is in an insane asylum waiting for her brother to come and find her. Sure enough he does which leads to a tearful goodbye between Laurie and all her fans. Another year passes and a small group of teens have entered a show named Dangertainment. The plan is that the teens have to spend Halloween night in Michael's house and if they don't chicken out and actually spend the whole night there they win a big cash prize. But Michael has returned home and doesn't plan to let the evening run smoothly! This film is great and although it isn't as good as H20 it is better than previous sequels. Everybody keeps complaining that this film isn't good because Michael decides to slaughter a bunch of people who aren't related to him. Everyone wants to know why Michael didn't go after Laurie's surviving son John. Did anyone stop to think that maybe Michael just wanted to wait for a couple of years and then he was gonna go after John? The only reason he slaughtered the people at his house was because they were there!!! He didn't know about the show he just wanted to go home and ended up returning at the wrong time! Anyway I hear at the moment the next Halloween film is in the first stages of development so at least we know we've got more Michael coming our way!!! Maybe in the next one Michael will go after John? If Josh Hartnett agrees to return which I don't think is likely or maybe Michael will go after Jamie Lloyd's son from Halloween : The Curse Of Michael Myers? I've heard that Bianca Kaljich and Busta Rymes are returning! I don't mean to be rude but I hope Busta Rymes is killed off in the next film because he may be an average actor but he will get too annoying if he becomes the new hero of the Halloween series! The last bad point about this film is why did they name it Halloween Resurrection??? The original title Halloween : The Homecoming was excellent! Plus Michael didn't really die in the first place so he was never resurrected!

Summary: More like 2.5 stars, actually...
Review: For better or worse, the Scream trilogy totally re-invented how horror movies were to be made from then on. Characters in these films are to be young, attractive, hip, horny and stupid, yet with quick wits and expansive vocabularies. The soundtrack is to be riddled with either rap or techno music. The camera is to either be set at an oblique angle or to be moving furiously to give the audience a sense of exhaustion. And finally, a rap star is to either have a starring role or "special cameo appearance." So shall it be written, so shall it be done. Halloween: Resurrection is no exception to the rule. Rather, it's the rule. Everything about this film reeks of cliches except for the main idea - a group of teenagers who should be in Calvin Klein ads are instead elected to spend a night in the house of Michael Myers. While there, their mission is to get everything they see on film for an internet reality show owned by Busta Rhymes and Tyra Banks called "Dangertainment." The idea is certainly pretty original... well, almost. When this movie came out, reality television was an absolute monolith, so it was a given that a film like this about reality television would have to be made before real TV's 15 minutes were up. This review has been written in August of 2003 and by now, everyone is getting sick of this whole concept. I hear people saying, "Whatever happened to good old fashioned sitcoms? Where's Miller/Boyett when you need them?" So on that basis, Halloween: Resurrection didn't hold up too well since it came out a year ago. But even if you did take the general plot with a grain of salt, the film is full of the cliches mentioned above, so we've seen all of this before. Nothing new. If I have to see one more horror movie where the main character walks into a dark room and says something along the lines of, "Ben?... John?... Tracy?... Come on, guys. Quit screwing around," I'll absolutely go insane. Negatives aside, the film does manage to squeeze a few ounces of suspense here and there, which is one of the things a horror movie is supposed to do (hence the 2.5 rating), but there's no menacing atmosphere here and even Mike himself comes off as a bit of a bumbler. Understandable, I guess. How old is he now? 46? If you're a big fan of the Halloween series but didn't care too much for the Scream-like H20, the odds are you're going to hate this one. However, as a stand alone film, it's not terribly terrible. Rent before you buy.

Summary: Surprisingly entertaining
Review: I expected Resurrection to be another hopelessly dim-witted sequel created specifically for the purpouse of lining producers' pockets. Not so. After a terrifc opening sequence which at last resolves some issues that have been a part of the series since the original film, the story this time takes us back to Haddonfield, Illinois where a live internet special following six people as they investigate the old Meyers home is being broadcast. During the broadcast, the midwest's most notorious denizen pops in for a homecoming, and much carnage ensues. While no one will win any academy awards here, the acting is more than adequate, and overall the film has enough genuine scares, cleverness and style to register as more than just another knock off. It's way better than that. One last thing, many fans have complained that the explanation as to why Michael is still alive following his supposed decapitation at the conclusion of H20 is hokey. I've been a fan of the "Halloween" series for most of my life, and I didn't think it was hokey. I thought it came across as exactly the sort of thing that The Shape would do. It is perfectly in keeping with the character, and I found it to be a relatively ingenious moment. If you're a fan of this series, you need to add this film to your library. It loses a star becuase H20 was a better film overall- but then, we expected that, didn't we?

Summary: Keeps on Going, and Going, and Going...
Review: This is, without a doubt, THE-WORST Halloween film in the series, right next to H2O and "The Curse of Micahel Meyers". Not only is it NOT SCARY AT ALL, it's EXTREMELY boring! Also, LAURIE DIES! I agree. No matter how bad H2O was, it still should of ended there.

Summary: HALLOWEEN again!
Review: Having only to do with the first two Halloween movies and the previous H-20, this is more or less MTV's "Fear" with Michael Myers. Or should I say, someone resembling Myers because the once-menacing aura that once came with the masked killer is lost. Do we really need a new Halloween with Busta Rhymes, Tyra Banks, and assorted members of American Pie and Save The Last Dance? God, how I miss Donald Pleasance and what his character brought to this series. Anyways, for some reason, a reality TV series is being broadcast in the old home of Michael Myers through the Internet. Michael has returned to stop it. Why he would even care seems to be a question better off unasked. Well, the new group of college-age victims gets it one by one as they poke fun of their surroundings and help urinate on what was once a horrifying horror movie franchise. I'll say it again. Kevin Williamson was the worst thing to happen to Halloween. Once his "Scream" films became the national craze, every character in horror films had to have some hip thing to say. His involvment in H-20 was the end of the much superior Halloween legacy that started at "Halloween 4".

Summary: Halloween goes 21st century
Review: Halloween resurrection picks up a few years after the end of the 1998 hit Halloween 20 (havn't seen that yet!). Halloween ressurection has a new feature for the Halloween series: it has two plots, first a kind of short prologue that relates to H20, and the second a new story entirely concerning the rest of the movie.
The prologue is Laurie strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), has been imprisoned for the wrongful murder of a police officer at the end of H20. But Michael Myers is still on the loose and is searching for Laurie. At the start of the movie, he finds her. After a brief meeting, brother and sister bid farewell (of course, they don't really bid farewell, but i won't say what exactly happens in case any readers have not yet seen Resurrection and thuogh not want to know).
The main plot is that producers at 'dangertainment' productions have come up with a new idea: to broadcast live on the internet a night in the Myers house in Haddonfield. They want a group of youngsters to spend one night at the house. The house has been rigged with extravagent fake features in the hope of inducing scares on the youngsters to make a good show. Little do the producers know though that Michael Myers knows about these plans and is planning to crash the party. The night of spooky fun could soon turn into a night of terror...
The plots, whilst not startlingly imaginative, are enough of a new change to inject life into this long-running franchise. Some reviewers have wrote that this series should have been left dead after H20, and this film seems to have attracted a fair amount of negative press from fans. I can't agree, if the producers can find yet more ways to resurrect Myers than fair play to them. I will only agree if the film is actually boring and contrived, and i don't think resurrection is. Sure, the film is full of cliches and the dialogue is often boring and unimaginative, but the film itself contains enough surprises and scares to count as a worthwhile addition to the serires. Perhaps people inherently dislike it because it's a seventh sequel. But it's surprisingly enjoyable and is quite entertaining.
Things i do object to in the film are Busta Rhymes 'acting'. He can be funny if given the right dialogue, but he really can't act. It makes you crave for the days of Pleasance. In fact, most of the acting is sub-par here. Plus, why do the producers keep changing Myers' mask? It now comes complete with huge eyebrows and is starting to look a little silly.
But the film must be given credit for trying to evolve. It's possibly one of the more imaginative additions to the Halloween series, and is at least making a good attempt at keeping up with the times. Besides, it does boast a decent ending and an involving enough plot. I thought that Halloween Resurrection is one of the more underatted entries in the series.
My advice is to see it- you may be pleasantly surprised.
