He's Behind You... Again!

Advantages: Funny, scary at times, tension
Disadvantages: Lacks the atmosphere the first film had, unintetionally funny, becomes a bit silly

...crazed Michael Myers did on Halloween of 1978, after trying to kill teenager Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) he seemingly met his end after being shot by his doctor (Donald Pleasance). However when Michael is nowhere to be seen it would seem that Halloween is far from over for Laurie and Doctor Loomis. Laurie is rushed to hospital after her ordeal with Michael whilst Doctor Loomis continues on in his hunt for Michael before more people are made ...
...her at the hospital… Halloween II is a direct sequel to 1978’s Halloween. Halloween II was released in 1981 but was set on the same night back in 1978 straight after Michael is shot. You’d think that three years on there might be some continuity issues but it seemed to me as though Rick Rosenthal had got everything right in this film, even it’s star Jamie Lee Curtis didn’t look as though she’d aged more than a day. If you’re planning on watching ...

Review of Halloween 2 (DVD)

Trick or Treat?

Advantages: The John Carpenter original, and H20
Disadvantages: The Curse storyline

...the film takes place on Halloween 1978, 15 years after a 6 year old killed his sister. The madman has now escaped from the asylum, donned a creepy mask, and headed back to the town of the original horror. Jamie Lee Curtis is Laurie Strode, the resourceful teenager who is stalked over the course of Halloween night by the masked man. Donald Pleasance turns up as an eerie doctor who has to try and bring Myers in alive. The performances are above average ...
...a scene from the original Halloween that subtly plays on a screen in a bar. It wasn't long before Michael returned though. After spending 10 years in a coma, he is now waking up for Halloween. After all, he wont be happy til everybody in his family is dead. We still dont know why though. What we do find out here is that Laurie Strode died in a car crash, and has left a child who now lives with over protective foster parents. She knows nothing about ...

Review of Halloween (Box Set) (DVD)

Halloween Box Set - 6 sequels too many but hey...

Advantages: Simple, straightforward, includes classic horror film 'Halloween'
Disadvantages: Reptitive

...to start writing stuff for Halloween but I brought this a while back, watched it, lost it, and then found it yesterday when I was routing though my draws. As most know, the Halloween franchise revolves around the serial killer Michael Myers, a psychotic child who grows to a super-strong monster, who also has a thing for masks and knives. Standard horror affair then, but wait... I don't know what it is, whether it's just me, but I honestly find ...
...I admit it goes downhill. Halloween 3: Season of the Witch is the only one that doesn't feature Michael Myers. Despite this, it's a decent watch and truly quite shocking in some places. Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, is well, the return of Michael Myers. Queue the blood and gore, and a star return from Donald Pleasance as Michael's psychiatrist Doctor Loomis. There really is no point discussing the other films as they follow the same lines, ...
