video review : Halloween : The Curse Of Michael Myers

They stopped numbering them, but make no mistake about it; this is Halloween 6. Perhaps 666 is more accurate. As the Curse word implies, the religious anti-Christ undertone of the story; remember Michael Myers has been Evil since the beginning; has taken over and now it’s sillier than ever. There’s a funny bit involving a radio show early on, but this entry is mostly awful.

video review : Halloween 4 [ The Return Of Michael Myers ]

Letting the world know in the subtitle that Michael Myers is back has more to do with marketing than the art of storytelling. Halloween 3 is a travesty to the series. 4 attempts a turn around. While it is better than Season Of The Witch, it’s a feeble effort.

The Return Of Michael Myers, which has the Evil killer going after Laurie Strode’s daughter; the child’s mother and father are apparently dead; comes across like a cheap made-for-TV knockoff. Even Michael’s mask is less menacing this time around.
