H20 is compelling, due in large part to an outstanding, mature performance by Jamie Lee Curtis, returning to the series for the first time since Halloween II.

H20 has two things going for it. One of them is a powerhouse performance by one of the great icons of contemporary horror film, Jamie Lee Curtis. And the other is the wordless presence of the bulky, bemasked heavy known as Michael Meyers.

H2O successfully captures the foreboding mood of Carpenter's 1978 original before eventually settling for the obvious. And at 86 minutes, it's just too short.

The showdown is grueling, long, with too many climaxes and improbable events, but Laurie's up for it. And that's what you love about her. She does not quit. She's bound and determined to decapitate his ass.

Here is a film that ultimately proves perhaps, for right now, there is still some life left in the typical slasher formula.

Having seen the film several times in the years since, my rating would now stand at a mildly positive 2.5 stars. Yes, the movie is too short, but it is also stylish and suspenseful enough to recommend.
