Review of Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995) by Robert H — 09 Jul 2015

This movie is a fucking mess. It tries to do something different and miserably fails. It has a lot background story for Michael and all of his backstory somehow manages to ruin his character. He was far more scarier when we knew nothing about him and he was just killing people for no apparent reason.

Now we get this ridiculous backstory that he's actually just a henchman for this cult of the Thorn. Now, there are 2 different versions of the movie. The Producer's Cut and the Theatrical cut.

I've only seen the theatrical cut, but having heard what happens in the producer's cut, I'm glad I went with this one. The Producer's cut has this amazingly illogical ending, while the theatrical cut also does something like that, but it's much less frustrating to watch.

In the ending, after Ant-Man (Paul Rudd's in the movie, btw, he's very bad in it) finishes off Michael with a steel pipe (what a way to go, huh?) and leaves the place, we see Michael's mask lying on the floor, next to it an empty syringe and we hear Dr.

Loomis' maniacal scream. I have literally no idea what the hell happened, but I didn't like it. All in all, this movie has too much in it, and it feels so rushed and incoherent that it's barely enjoyable.

Wouldn't recommend, unless you want to watch all of the movies in this franchise.
