Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995)


In 7 words or less: Michael Myers is back for some reason.

What's it all About? Errr? The poster says "The scariest Halloween Yet".. I think they meant  "The most confusing Halloween yet". Jamie has been kidnapped and impregnated by some druids with Michael Myer's baby. She escapes after giving birth to the baby and tries to find Loomis. She is killed by Michael. Paul Rudd finds the baby... I think he's playing little Tommy from Halloween. Loomis and Paul Rudd try to stop Michael. ???

He's alive.
Best bits? It's pretty fun. It's just nice to see Michael Myers stumbling around on your TV. His preferred method of killing in this is to hoist people onto sharp things. Loomis is the standout again, being the only one that can act.

Nice Pumpkin.
Did it make you think thoughts? Badly shot, edited and directed. Appalling script. Totally confusing story. How hard can it be to make a good Halloween film? It's such a simple concept. It should be a piece of cake! I just read that Danielle Harris wanted to reprise her role as Jamie, but Dimension Films wouldn't pay her the $5000 she asked for.... That might give you an idea of the quality of filmmaking your can expect here. Actually, this IMDB Trivia page is worth a read...

Flying.
Would you watch it again? Only as part of a Halloween marathon. But you'd be seriously flagging at this stage.

Rating (out of 100%): Halloween 6 gets 31%. Only for the sight of Loomis and Michael.

Out of shape Myers.
