Halloween VI - The Curse of Michael Myers (DVD)

The film has a really awful and confusing start with a woman having a baby in a basement and then Myers coming from no-where, a cute shot of a guy holding a phone in his right hand AND typing with the same hand. Super goof! The radio jock laughing at the idea of "Micheal Myers in space". (pretty much the plot of Jason X). Once you discount how stupid the fact of Myers even being alive is you have to nod and know this film is just a slasher flick designed to scare as often as possible. Surely someone who had killed as many people as Myers would have been executed on reaching adulthood? He seems to get vehicles easily and often so had no-one ever ...  Read the complete review

Under various guises including Halloween 666 or Halloween: How to kill a franchise, this 6th entry comes in the form of a cinematic cut and a much sought after directors cut which, having seen a poor quality rough cut, appears to be a much better film. Having disappeared years earlier with her serial-killer uncle, Jamie Lloyd is now holed up in a derelict hospital as a hostage of a cult known as Thorn. Michael seems to be under their control now, and like a good dog, comes out to play only on their whims. Quite what THEY have about Halloween is never made clear. Although they at least attempt to explain Michael's motives, which is something nobody has ...  Read the complete review

If there was ever a definition of what the words "split down the middle" stand for, it's certainly "Halloween: The Curse Of Michael Myers." On one hand, you have a small group of people who appreciate the theatrical version for its originality and level of atmosphere. There is also a larger group of people who absolutely hate it because of its mystical mumbo jumbo. I do not fit in the latter group as I feel that it's not quite that bad. It may not be the best of the "Halloween" sequels, but it also could have been much worse. The talk of druids and giving a method to Michael's madness was an interesting idea in and of itself, but ...  Read the complete review

The sixth film in the Halloween series split fans down the middle. Some hated it, some loved it. I like it. While it certainly is not the best Halloween film by a long shot it is fairly good at what its supposed to do - provide a cheap thrill, and with a budget of $5m you know its going to be cheap. Halloween 6 takes place a few years after Halloween 5, although its actually 6 years it seems to be more, after all Jamie Lloyd is now grown up and had a baby, and she was only about 7 in Halloween's 4&5. Presumed missing after an explosion Jamie and Michael have been in hiding with a cult 'Thorn' as it’s called. Jamie has had a baby but she ...  Read the complete review

Halloween 6 follows on from the dreadful Halloween 5, but be warned its not that much better, if any. At the start we see Jamie giving birth to a baby in some sort of ceremony, then the baby being taken away by men in black. A nurse helps Jamie Escape with her baby but Michel Myers soons begin to chase her, he eventually catches her and puts her in some farming shredding device but she has already hiden the baby from him. Before he caught her Jamie phoned up a Radio Show from a Train Station, this show just happens to be about Micheal Myers, where Jamie screams for Dr. Loomis (Pleasance) to come and help her. Listening to the show, and obsessed with Myers, is ...  Read the complete review
