Best movie of this year hands down!

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

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.

Halloween 5 was not very successful at the box office only being screened in certain cinemas, with that very last ending story being left for six years until Halloween 6 was finally in production. Halloween 6 was then released in the year of 1995, just a year before Scream. The film follows Michael Myers and why he murders people..no joke. Halloween 6 is most likely the worst installment to the Halloween series, it actually shits on the whole series making it sooooo less scary, it actually reveals why Michael just kills people, this story was obviously conceived after Halloween 4 made its money while Debra Hill was working on it, why the heck did you not do anything Debra, WHY??!! The film also feels like its about a day long and then when you reach the end of course, we all know what happens, I won't spoil but for heaven's sake, this film was bad. Halloween 6 is just, its just..no, ok, NO!!

To say "Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers" is a jumbled up, muddy, watered down mess is an understatement. Gone is the intense claustrophobia and the merciless tension of John Carpenter's original, and instead we have a completely half baked attempt to explain Michael Myers backstory and lame, heavily edited jump scares. The film opens with Jami Lloyd from the previous two films being held captive by a cult. It's here that we find out that Jami has now birthed a child that is the last in the Myers bloodline and Michael and the cult are trying to off the baby. Why they couldn't have just gotten on with it and killed Jami is beyond me, but this is Halloween 6 logic I guess. So, Jami escapes and is then immediately chased by Myers. She leaves the baby in a bathroom sink cabinet so Myers can not find it. But it's OK, Michael just kills Jami.The next day Tommy Doyle (remember that super minor character from the first film) finds the baby in the bathroom and takes it under his wing. Doyle does some investigating and finds it's related to Myers and that Jami must have been killed. The rest of the film is just Tommy Doyle and Kara Strode (a far removed relative of Laurie's) trying to find out the origin of Michael Myers in order to stop him and the mysterious cult of Thorn.The main problem with the film is that it's a complete, incoherent mess. The subplot of Michael being a pawn for a cult makes the once terrifying killer, a poor, tragic soul under the command of a faceless cult and whenever the film tries to make sense of the plot it just digs itself deeper into a hole. Donald Pleasance returns (for the last time) as Dr. Loomis, and it's nice having him here, but he has absolutely nothing to do. Instead the film focuses way too much on Tommy Doyle, who the audience has no connection with other than he was a very minor character in the first film. The only decent parts that can be found in the film are Donald Pleasance's impassioned speeches every once in a while and occasionally the film will be creepy. But, only occasionally does it do these things. Supposedly the film went through rewrite after rewrite, resulting in a different cut of the film known as "The Producers Cut". And having seen the infamous "Producers Cut" I can say it's an improvement over the original. Donald Pleasance is not completely wasted and it does manage to be genuinely scary in places. But, it's still INCREDIBLY flawed-proving that, whichever cut you watch, "Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers" is an unsalvageable mess of a picture.

After watching the fourth and fifth installments of this franchise, I found myself wondering how things could possibly get any worse. I now have my answer.For a basic plot summary, "Halloween 6" sees Michael Myers (now controlled by the curse of Thorn) continuing his reign of terror directed at the Strode/Lloyd family. Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasance) is back on the case, while Tommy Doyle (Paul Rudd), the little kid from the first film, once again comes out of the woodwork to try and protect Jamie Lloyd's child an destroy Myers.Basically, unless you get a supposed "director's cut" of this film, which does not exist on DVD at this time, this movie (in the theatrical version) is one of the most disjointed pieces of cinema you will ever see. It tries to establish some inkling of the evil forces that drive Myers, but fails miserably and only ends up confusing things further. There is also no continuity from the previous films, with certain elements just dropped or forgotten.The acting isn't any better. Pleasance hobbles around and spouts the same tired warning and evil clichés, while all Rudd does is walk around with a dazed expression on his face. No cute little girls (like Danielle Harris in parts 4 and 5) to save this dreck.To add insult to injury, the Myers character is (by this point) so screwed up as to be almost unrecognizable from the original. The new mask evokes laughs, not horror, and he looks pudgy and even runs after a victim on one occasion.Basically, this is a terrible film by any and all accounts. It has actually achieved a sort of cult status for its terrible-ness, but don't let that bait you: if you don't watch this movie, you aren't missing a thing.
