Critics Consensus

The only thing this tired slasher flick may resurrect is nostalgia for when the genre was still fresh and scary.

Stay away unless you like kitschy early internet nostalgia and lots of blurry found-footage trickery.

[Seems] even more uselessly redundant and shamelessly money-grubbing than most third-rate horror sequels.

2/5

While the production values here are more cool than crappy, there's nothing really new about Resurrection.

1/5

No matter what horror fans disagree about, it's nice to see them all come together to confirm that Resurrection is the absolute low point of the entire franchise in every way imaginable.

Here’s another entry that can be completely wiped from existence, and everybody would be better off.

.5/4

Halloween: Resurrection is an embarrassment to a franchise that I hold near and dear to my heart. A franchise that has entertained viewers for the past 40 years and its fans deserved more than this film.

You Look Like Some Chicken Fried This movie completely contradicts H20 just to make another film. It makes me wonder what the point of H20 was. All the progress we made was pointless for a sh*tty movie. Was email just invented in 2003? My God. I grew up in the late 90s and early 2000s. Did these people never hear of AOL? The cast is great, but Tyra Banks and Busta Rhymes really take me out of it. This movie then turns into a Ghost Hunters episode, but as a slasher in the Myers home. It's very 2000s. It might have looked good on paper, but it's kind of boring and really hasn't aged well. There was a cool kill involving a tripod, though. This movie is just boring. A chick is told Michael is in the hallway and not to scream, and she proceeds to scream. The dialogue is awful, and the whole love interest between Sara and Myles feels stupid and pointless. The ending also made my eyes roll.

Nunca nenhuma das franquias de terror do Monte Rushmore chegou tão baixo. Um lixo do fundo do poço. Do começo ao fim, uma vergonha para a série. O trabalho excepcional de Rick Rosenthal em Halloween 2 deve ter sido um verdadeiro acaso, porque ele não tem a mínima ideia do que está fazendo aqui. Forma e conteúdo sem sentido - um filme que anseia por Michael Myers entrando pela sua porta para te tirar do seu sofrimento. Da estética à narrativa, este é um reboot tão descaradamente farto de suas origens, como se tivesse vergonha de existir. Bem, eu também me considero envergonhado.

The second star is solely for Busta Rhymes’ bizarre king fu moves. As I woman, I was extremely annoyed with the dialogue. This is a very 2000s horror film so it’s worth a watch for nostalgia if that’s your thing. Otherwise, go ahead and skip this one.
