Movie Reviews of Halloween H20 - Twenty Years Later (Dimension Collector's Series)
Movie Review: just a new tip for every one out there!!!
Summary: 3 Stars
just a tip that box set IS NOT worth it. If you want all the movies> walmart has halloween 1 for $10, H-2, H-3 combo pack for i think $8.00 and then theres BEst bUY whom has H-4, H-5 for $15 ea. Walmart just got in recently a NEW odd never seen b4 till recent a box set of Halloween 6, 7, 8 combo for $15. Buy it if yur a hard core fan. Good $ price for 3 movies!! Plus just about anywhere has the 2007 vs of halloween for about $20 i think. so for bout $85 you can get all the Halloween movies if you got the $$$ and are a hard core fan! SOOOO wish a produceers cut of H=6 would come out. I heard its about 45min of additional footage that the theatrical release didnt show?? for whatever reason... SO there you go... AND another Halloween movie a sequal from last years (2007) will be out in 2009 i heard>?? who knows the more remakes and or ssequals they make there just ruining what few great halloween movies there are currently. If there going to make a sequal make one w/ john(josh hartnett) lauries son coming back and facing michael one last time or something like that. who knows what those joker producers will end up doing???Movie Review: Wonderful sequel!
Summary: 5 Stars
20 years after the brutal Halloween night massacre that happened in Haddonfield, survivor Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) faked her own death and hides out in California under a new alias. Now raising a son (Josh Harnett) and being a headmistress at a prep school, she is still being haunted by the memories of Michael Myers. However the fiendish Shape isn't dead since that fire at the hospital in "Halloween 2", he hunts her down on the same day that he always stalks and kills known as Halloween for now she must face the monster of her past and put an end to him once and for all.
Co-starring Michelle Williams, Janet Leigh and LL Cool J., this is an intelligent and electrifying entry that is the best Halloween sequel since part 2 and 4. Although part 3 which was an unrelated film was a nice and different experiment while it lasted, i think this one did a good job of ignorning parts 3 to 6 like it was intended. Produced by Kevin Williamson of "Scream" fame, this thrilling sequel delivers all the goods with fine kills and great acting by Harnett and Curtis, this should have been the final movie of the series as intended but instead got ruined by "Halloween Resurrection".
This DVD has great picture and sound with a few decent extras like a featuette, trivia game and music video.
Movie Review: Welcome back Jamie Lee!!!!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Now THAT'S more like it!!!
After four horrendous sequels that made ZERO sense, Hollywood brings back Jamie Lee, pretends that parts 3 - 6 never happened and makes the best Halloween since part 2.
A brilliant continuation of the story line.
Expertly directed, superb acting, a great cast, even with Josh and his pillow fight hair.
LL rocks in this movie.
Start to finish a film FINALLY worthy of the Halloween name.
One again it should have ended after this but Hollyweird saw $$$ again, and we had to sit through the so so part 8.
This film however???
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Movie Review: H2O: yes, maybe, no.
Summary: 4 Stars
I like this movie. Not the best one done of course, but it is passable. Movie Review: Non canon, non enjoyable
Summary: 1 Stars
This was a strange move by Dimension, who had picked up the "Halloween" franchise. The first Dimension "Halloween", part 6 "The Curse Of Michael Myers", was a great film - before the last third was reshot due to the postfilming death of Donald Pleasance. In order to keep the series going, they needed a new ending, which almost destroyed the movie. Then they came out with this one, which bizarrely ignores everything that had happened in parts 4, 5 and their own 6 (in fact I believe "H20" also pretty much threw out part 2, but I'm not certain about it). And...why? To...accomplish what? I have no idea why Dimension, usually a first-rate company, would just give the middle finger to not only "Halloween" fans but also the artists who contributed to the series. Makes no sense.
Well, it may have been forgivable had "H20" been a great film. But it wasn't even a good film, and the much hyped return of Jamie Lee Curtis didn't amount to anything more than that, hype. "H20" is a mess of a movie, a standard glossy Hollywood shocker in that already dated "Scream" mold. There's a bunch of young actors and actresses doing absolutely nothing, and there's so many of those "fake scares" - I believe about 287 of 'em - that it simply becomes annoying in the extreme. "H20" is not only not scary, it's boring and irritating.
Most of the longtime "Halloween" fans don't consider "H20" or it's equally crappy followup "Halloween: Resurrection" to be canonical entries in the series; by ignoring the Myers mythology, what other conclusion can be drawn? And say what you will about Zombie's remake; at least it is a good, disturbing little flick. But "H20" and "Resurrection" are just terrible commercial products designed to make a quick buck.
Avoid.
