Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers Ratings & Reviews
- LivewireAdminOctober 22, 2025Somewhere between the druid cults, psychic runes, and endless exposition dumps, Halloween lost whatever sense of mystery it had left. The "Producer’s Cut" tries to tie six films together with lore that feels like it escaped from a bad paperback novel, and the result is equal parts confusing and lifeless. Even Paul Rudd looks like he’s regretting every line as he awkwardly battles a mythos no one asked for. There’s a decent atmosphere buried under the nonsense, but the movie is so tangled in its own mythology that even Michael seems tired of it. I can see why they decided to bring Jamie Lee Curtis back in the next one and basically ignore everything after II. Letterboxd: FilmPhanPA
- FranBizOctober 21, 2025Depending on which version you watch, your experience will differ. The theatrical cut will give a Halloween movie with slasher kills. The edits can be rushed, especially those throbbing flashing effects. Geez. The score will have a heavy metal composition, and the ending will leave you with a cliffhanger with Dr Loomis' outcome. If you're watching the Producer's cut... well, I'll be honest, I'm slightly biased a bit with this version. It's just a little bit, though. There are no throbbing flashing effects (Thank goodness). The music will have a re arranged version of the original Halloween score, which is more fitting for this movie. The characters have more time to breath, however it's not perfect due to the script. I do enjoy the story the old babysitter tells about the origins of Halloween. I also appreciate the recap from Halloween 5 in the producer's cut. This movie isn't perfect, but I'll watch it around the spooky season; specifically, the producers cut. Check it out.
- The Gutter MonkeyOctober 27, 2024It was a movie.
- ZokkiieAugust 24, 2025This movie really lives up to its title—because the entire thing feels like a curse. Between the messy plot, confusing cult storyline, and wasted characters, it’s more frustrating than frightening. Michael Myers is still creepy, but everything around him is so muddled it drains the tension. A few eerie moments can’t save it from being one of the weakest entries in the series.
