GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Gresh854 If a movie could be a literal, physical Middle Finger, Halloween: Resurrection would be it. Nearly every aspect of the film is an insult not only to fans of the franchise, but also anyone who respects cinematic quality. It tries to recreate the success of movies like Scream and Scary Movie, by adding a comedic twist to the horror genre, but in doing so, burns the whole Halloween lore in a blazing wildfire. If there's one word that perfectly sums up how I would describe Halloween VIII, it would be "abnoxious." (Verdict: F)
realityinmind This is definitely the worst movie in the series (yes, worst that Zombie's sequel). The plot is ridiculous -- it takes place in the Myers' condemned house with no electricity (hello city regulations?), the actors are obsessed with sex like they are in a campy movie -- the girl gets naked in the dirty a$$ basement before dead bodies fall all over her (Halloween is NOT Friday the 13th), and the worst aspect of it all is the editing. All throughout this movie the film is randomly slowed down. Why? Michael is walking too fast..... press the slow motion button. Jamie Lee Curtis is falling too fast.... press the slow motion button. Randomly things just slow down for a few seconds here and there all throughout the movie yet the film format can't handle these slow-motion effects, so every time it is slowed down the film becomes blurry. It is horribly distracting, all because the director couldn't direct the guy who played Michael to simply walk slower. Jamie Lee Curtis didn't want to be in this movie as she keeps trying to kill herself off in all the horrible remakes but Moustapha Akkad just won't let her! (Though it is relieving to know that Danny McBride is helping with the new movie, and clearly that is enough to get Jamie Lee Curtis back on board one last time).I did like Busta Rhymes though... he is a good versatile rapper slash actor.And I am glad they finally got rid of that whole Thorn thing. It was a horrible mistake that was forced into the franchise for no reason (look up the history of how that happened).
caosupernurse Not the best Halloween but still beats #three! It's back to the slasher rules of horror films without all the human torture so many horror movies think they need today. If your a horror movie kid from the 80's, sometimes you just wanna watch a predictable slasher movie!
moonspinner55 Three years after decapitating the wrong person instead of unstoppable maniac Michael Myers, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis, in a cameo) has been committed to an asylum, apparently catatonic but actually lying in wait for Myers to track her down--he does. That's just the prologue, however; the rest of the film is made up of Haddonfield University students taking part in an internet reality show that will deliver them back to Myers' childhood home on Halloween to "look for answers." Directed by the inept Rick Rosenthal (who fumbled "Halloween II" in 1981), this generic installment catches viewers up on the previous effort, 1998's "Halloween H20: 20 Years Later", utilizing flashbacks--only then to have an intern at the asylum fill us in on Myers' entire criminal history, a checklist of murders. I'm surprised Dimension Films didn't try to save money and plug the whole movie with flashbacks. A stabbing here, a gutting there. Curtis gets off easy; not so the rest of the cast, nor any audience who stays to the end. * from ****
