Review of Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998) by Eric Vierthaler — 16 May 2009

A very, very good movie! If anybody thinks this movie is bad I hope you Michael Myers will come after you! It had a very good script. It was wise for them to ignore Halloween 4,5, and 6. Because this movie was better then those 3 movies.

I liked the beginning when they had the nurse from the first Halloween reprise her role in this movie. That was very interesting. I also liked in the opening credits when the flashbacks of Dr. Sam Loomis famous quotes from the original movie where said.

It was by another actor but it kinda sounded like Donald Pleasence. To bad Donald Pleasence died before this movie came out. I could really understand why Laurie Strode was over protective about her son John not going out on Halloween night cause she doesn't want him to go threw the same thing she did twenty years ago.

I thought that was brilliant. I liked how you saw some well known people in here. You don't see that much in most horror movies. But the music score sounded like from a Tim Burton movie. That's not really a good thing for a Halloween movie.

But the music score was okay. I liked how in the end they used the Halloween theme from the very first movie. I loved LL Cool J's character. This movie really should of been the final one of the series because it had the perfect ending when Laurie beheaded Michael Myers at the end.

But Halloween: Resurrection RUINED IT!!! I hate Halloween: Resurrection all because of that! You can really feel sorry for Laurie Strode for being so scared of Michael Myers and you can really understand why.

And you can really understand why she has to go up against Michael at the end because he just tried to kill his son and his girlfriend and he killed her friends twenty years ago it's time for some pay back after all those years! This movie was the perfect anniversary sequel.

To bad John Carpenter didn't return to direct. Why was he never involved with the sequels except for Halloween 2 and the god awful Halloween 3? Only John knows himself! I highly recommend this movie.

It's the best sequel since Halloween 2!
