What a refreshing change from the last four installments! From the suspenseful opening to the great ending, "Halloween H20" follows the first two chapters. This really should have been "Halloween 3". I'm so glad they ignored the other useless sequels and brought back some of the feeling from the first two. Not that the other sequels have no merit; they simply should not have been "Halloween" sequels. Jamie Lee Curtis gives a great performance as a haunted Laurie Strode, who is forced to fight her demons once and for all. There are also some inside jokes throughout the film that only true horror fans will get. Highly recommended after viewing the first two chapters. Also starring Adam Arkin, Josh Hartnett, Michelle Williams, LL Cool J and Janet Leigh.

Don't be fooled by the title. I was disappointed when I first saw this back in '89 and kept waiting and waiting and waiting for Jason to take Manhattan. Anyway, this is the worst of the series (tied with Part 9) after Part 5 of course. Worth a look if you have nothing else to do and you come across it late one night on cable.
