Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is one of the most hated films in this franchise, and understandably so. The performances are awful (sorry, but that goes for Paul Rudd as well) except for - of course - Donald Pleasence. The characters are all either doll and/or uninteresting, and most of them are there just to expand the body count. If you don't believe the fact that this is a very hated movie, just read some of the other reviews. In short, this movie is miles away from being a great - and some would even argue good - movie.
But let's focus on all the good stuff this installment has to offer:
First off, Michael Myers is really awesome in this movie and among the best portrayals of the character in this entire franchise. The kills are among the best in the entire franchise. The movie has a really unsettling and creepy atmosphere which undeniably is a plus. As mentioned above; Donald Pleasence is great playing Dr. Loomis his last time (Rest in peace).
Even though this movie is very much flawed, the positives really make up for it. This is might not be a great movie, but it's a great Michael Myers movie and one of my favorites for sure! I really think it's an underrated installment of this franchise.
Horror: B (Creepy Scenes, Good Atmosphere, Kills are Very Brutal)
Entertainment: A- (Very Entertaining for Fans of the Franchise)
Acting: D+ (Pleacense Stands Out, Sadly Nobody Else)
Suspense: B+ (Some Very Suspenseful Moments, Good Chase Scenes)
Characters: C (Loomis, Myers and Tommy are Interesting, Others are Quite Doll)
Script/Story: C+ (Nothing Special, Some Good Elements)
Overall Rating: 6.66/10 😱
