Reviews for Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers
Although the series has obviously run out of steam, the ending leaves the door open for Michael's return. Really, it's about time the masks were removed once and for and all.
'Enough of this Michael Meyers B.S.!,' says a disgruntled Haddonfielder, as news spreads of the returning native son. Dream on.
Needless to say, the gore level is high and the scare level low -- although not as low as the intelligence level.
This sixth installment, by far the worst in the series, is bland and deadening.
Unfortunately, while director Joe Chapelle and writer Daniel Farrands took advantage of a clearance sale at the Horror Cliche Emporium, they forgot to stop in at Plots R Us.
