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

        I watched this film on netflix or amazon prime i believe and i was going into it thinking it was gonna be bad but i gave it a un bias try. After watching this i have to say this could be one of the worst horror movies of all time. A wasted talented cast and potentially powerful sequel is killed in its tracks by its horrible acting and horrible script and story. Busta Rhymes should've been nominated for a Razzi this is so bad. A perfect score on RT they got it just right.

        This is the ninth film in the original series, and it follows on the heels of the film Halloween H2O: 20 Years Later (1998). The whole film is a mistake. The film begins with Michael Myers killing his sister Laurie Strode, and then moving back into his old house in Haddonfield. A bunch of crazy college kids happen to be staying there, and they're a part of a reality TV show. Things turn foul for the kids and the show when the challenge to stay in this old haunted house turns serious, with Michael Myers killing everybody. Goodness gracious. Killing Laurie at the beginning is just throwing away a crucial character for no reason. Given that she is not integral to the rest of this bad film, she did not need to appear at all. Sad that she did. Also, it is clear from the film that the producers were just wanting to cash in on the pop culture craze of reality TV shows, without seeming to understand reality TV themselves nor how a show like this could be conducted, like in the film, that would be interesting to anybody. Fact is, the show inside this movie would be totally unwatchable.

        Michael Myers: The Reality TV Show! ...Somehow still less dumb than Halloween 6.

        There are some intriguing and provocative ideas in Halloween: Resurrection, but it doesn't really fit with the tone of the series. When a group of students are selected to participate in an investigation of the childhood home of Michael Myers (that's streamed live over the internet on Halloween), Myers shows up and gives them a surprise. The plot doesn't make a lot of sense and the characters are one-dimensional stereotypes. Yet, there's an interesting attempt to address some topical issues such as the culture of violence and the effects of mass media. Halloween: Resurrection is a departure from the series that tries to move beyond Myers's family vendetta, but it doesn't really work.
