Gresh854 This is it! We've officially hit rock bottom with this franchise! Not only does Halloween: The Curse Of Michael Myers feature cheap jump scares, but it also features even more cheap jump scares, followed by even more cheap jump scares! Okay, but in all seriousness, this film truly was atrocious. It's quite disappointing considering the beginning of this film was actually somewhat interesting. I'll admit it, I was hooked! I had hope! Unfortunately though, what followed was an abundance of muddled plot holes, an uninspiring storyline, and predictability at an all-time high. Funny enough, some of Michael Myers's kills were hilariously absurd. There was also a handful of hysterically bad moments in terms of character decisions that certainly had me laughing. The film additionally feels highly unfocused in the predicaments it presents which can majorly create confusion among viewers like myself. Overall, the film's attempts at being horrifying usually comes off as comical, and it's strive to revitalize an already dying franchise feels substantially inconsiderate. (Verdict: D)
gabegiddens Halloween 6 is by far not only one of the worst horror films I've ever seen, it's also one of the worst films period. The films writing is so lazy and the story is so dumb. Barely anything happens in this film, and on top of that, we are supposed to care about these characters who are just played by cardboard actors (don't worry, Paul Rudd gets better). Donald Pleasence was fine, but he's been the same thing six times now. In the end, this film is really bad...enough said.
Jerome Harris For years, I could never figure out why this sequel was so strange and flawed in a lot of ways. But I recently listened to audio commentary by Daniel Ferrands and I found out how ambitious and dedicated he was to making this a worthy sequel... Until the suits came in and raped what was once his vision (Jamie living until the end and dying in a fight with Michael, more Loomis for the fans, a bit lighter on gore, a classic score from Alan Howarth, etc). It was only implied that Steven was Michael's child, rather than confirmed... Which was a good choice for such a bizarre subplot. What takea me out of this flick is J.C. Brandy, she just wasn't Jamie to me. And Paul Rudd having more screen time than Donald Pleasance was disappointing. H6 is one of the more mean spirited entries and as far as spirit, it looks and feels like Halloween. The performances are strong, Kara Strode being the most grounded next to Loomis, and Michael is the most bad ass we've seen up to this point. This movie was genuinely scary either version, but I would've preferred what was planned on paper.
Realrockerhalloween Spoilers belowWhere to start here. Halloween 6 has to be the one that suffered most. Not only was the production troubled from the beginning, but five version exist of this film containing alternate scenes due to the directors wanting different directions for the story.I'll stuck with the main two since they both have the major difference between one another. The producer's cut was the superior film that was shot. It starts off with Jamie being kidnapped and imprisoned by a cult who passes on Thorn. Thorn is a demon who desires sacrifices in exchange for prosperity. Sounds like season of the witch revisited. In fact Cockran reminds me a lot of Wynn in demeanor and goals.In the director's cut the cult is replaced by scientists who want to harbor the curse to cute diseases. How they know or even can extract it is a toss up in the air.The music for each consists of a haunting melody and a guitar rip you'd expect to hear on MTV. The director ends in mystery of Michael and Loomis. Some think he finally killed the good doctor for he encountered something much worse. A licker from resident evil perhaps? The other shows Wynn trading places with his monster.The date of Jamie Llyode is either thrashed on a corn shredder ten minutes in or lying in a hospital bed and being shot by Dr. Wynn. Why not let Michael do it is the only issue with this scene for me. I mean does Wynn have the power to have sacrifices homered and does it count?Both stories still leave a lot of unanswered questions and plot holes. Still when I think of Halloween 6 I go with the coherent story in the producer's cut. The atmosphere is wonderful, the music enchanting, characters more fleshed out and it makes a tad more sense.7/0
