Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Gresh854 This is it! We've officially hit rock bottom with this franchise! Not only does Halloween: The Curse Of Michael Myers feature cheap jump scares, but it also features even more cheap jump scares, followed by even more cheap jump scares! Okay, but in all seriousness, this film truly was atrocious. It's quite disappointing considering the beginning of this film was actually somewhat interesting. I'll admit it, I was hooked! I had hope! Unfortunately though, what followed was an abundance of muddled plot holes, an uninspiring storyline, and predictability at an all-time high. Funny enough, some of Michael Myers's kills were hilariously absurd. There was also a handful of hysterically bad moments in terms of character decisions that certainly had me laughing. The film additionally feels highly unfocused in the predicaments it presents which can majorly create confusion among viewers like myself. Overall, the film's attempts at being horrifying usually comes off as comical, and it's strive to revitalize an already dying franchise feels substantially inconsiderate. (Verdict: D)
Verdugo85 Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is the scariest sequel and yes, its way better than Halloweens 5, H20 and Resurrection.According to this film, Dr. Wynn (who made a cameo in the original) is the good old friend and colleague of Dr. Loomis has been the leader of a cult called Thorn, he's the one responsible for turning Michael Myers into an unstoppable serial killer and has been controlling Michael. This implies that Michael Myers was always "the victim" and Wynn was the real villain from the beginning..I dont think so. I know alot of fans hate this film, well I mean, they hate the theatrical cut because that version makes no sense, ok I agree, and that the producer's cut is recommended. I've seen both versions and prefer the theatrical cut. I dont care if the plot/story is messy my only concern was the Michael Myers character. The theatrical version is scary, dark, brutal, creepy and Michael Myers is a badass and a monster compared to the producer's cut. Another reason why I prefer the theatrical version is because it shows that evil cant be controlled. Michael brutally kills "his creator" Dr. Wynn and his staffs. Overall, Michael's evil still remains a mystery how it should be and I prefer it that way.The ending when it shows Michael's mask on the floor and you hear a horrified screaming, Jesus that freaked me out.
newchristmasdreams In this sequel it has been years since Jamie and Michael disappeared. At the same time "Michael Myers Survivor" Tommy Doyle(From Halloween 1) has moved into the boarding house across the street from Michael's original home. He knows that this "Halloween" Michael will return and he is waiting.Now living in the old Myers House is Michael's uncle (Why didn't he Now Daniel Farrands picked up the threads that were left behind from "Halloween 5" which included "The Man in Black". In this we learn who he is. What is shocking was that years later the writer/director of "Halloween 5" (Dominique Othenin-Girard) said that was something they added when they were shooting the film. Now much of the production and production problems have been told over the years. One problem was the production budget was cut while they were shooting forcing script changes. When the film was subject to the test audience the response wasn't good and the film was sent back into production. When we finally got to see the "Producers Cut" it is slightly better but not much. The Original Theatrical ending was one big What the Heck moment! I was saw it at the theaters and was mad and I thought that would be the last "Halloween" movie. It grossed less than $16,000,000. 3 years later however the producers were wise and ignored "Halloween 4-6" when Jamie Lee Curtis returned to play Laurie Strode. It was a wise move. "Halloween 4" was great. "Halloween 5" and "Halloween VI" were not only creative failures but box office failures as well! "Halloween H20" when that was released took in more money at the box office then the combined gross of "Halloween IV- VI".
tuckerconstable-07055 To say "Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers" is a jumbled up, muddy, watered down mess is an understatement. Gone is the intense claustrophobia and the merciless tension of John Carpenter's original, and instead we have a completely half baked attempt to explain Michael Myers backstory and lame, heavily edited jump scares. The film opens with Jami Lloyd from the previous two films being held captive by a cult. It's here that we find out that Jami has now birthed a child that is the last in the Myers bloodline and Michael and the cult are trying to off the baby. Why they couldn't have just gotten on with it and killed Jami is beyond me, but this is Halloween 6 logic I guess. So, Jami escapes and is then immediately chased by Myers. She leaves the baby in a bathroom sink cabinet so Myers can not find it. But it's OK, Michael just kills Jami.The next day Tommy Doyle (remember that super minor character from the first film) finds the baby in the bathroom and takes it under his wing. Doyle does some investigating and finds it's related to Myers and that Jami must have been killed. The rest of the film is just Tommy Doyle and Kara Strode (a far removed relative of Laurie's) trying to find out the origin of Michael Myers in order to stop him and the mysterious cult of Thorn.The main problem with the film is that it's a complete, incoherent mess. The subplot of Michael being a pawn for a cult makes the once terrifying killer, a poor, tragic soul under the command of a faceless cult and whenever the film tries to make sense of the plot it just digs itself deeper into a hole. Donald Pleasance returns (for the last time) as Dr. Loomis, and it's nice having him here, but he has absolutely nothing to do. Instead the film focuses way too much on Tommy Doyle, who the audience has no connection with other than he was a very minor character in the first film. The only decent parts that can be found in the film are Donald Pleasance's impassioned speeches every once in a while and occasionally the film will be creepy. But, only occasionally does it do these things. Supposedly the film went through rewrite after rewrite, resulting in a different cut of the film known as "The Producers Cut". And having seen the infamous "Producers Cut" I can say it's an improvement over the original. Donald Pleasance is not completely wasted and it does manage to be genuinely scary in places. But, it's still INCREDIBLY flawed-proving that, whichever cut you watch, "Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers" is an unsalvageable mess of a picture.
