Made with real devotion by genuine fans of this ongoing horror movie series, "Halloween: 25 Years of Terror" arose out of the real-life 25th anniversary convention held in South Pasadena, and it's impressive to see such an assemblage of series participants, celebrity admirers (running the gamut from Clive Barker to Rob Zombie to Edgar Wright), and dedicated super-fans. Engagingly narrated by the consistently appealing P.J. Soles, whom I don't need to tell anybody played Lynda in the original 1978 classic, this picture shows many things that die-hard fans could appreciate: memorabilia, convention footage, individual testimonials, and the like. It takes time to explore the genesis of the trend-setting first movie, examine its cultural impact and legacy, and give viewers details of the making of each series entry.
Now, while I do love horror movies, I'm not an unconditional series fan myself. I actually kind of enjoy "Season of the Witch", but agree that it should have really been removed from the franchise and been its own film; it then might have had more of a chance for success. However, "Revenge" and "Curse" represented the bottom of the barrel for me. "H20" was a mildly entertaining return to form, but "Resurrection" was too self-consciously trendy and completely lacking in scares and suspense.
That said, I found this documentary informative and likable and was pleased to see so many actors from the series turn up (in particular, the long missing-in-action Nancy Kyes (a.k.a. Nancy Loomis, "Annie" from the original film)) and offer their thoughts.
Ultimately, the recent two-disc Anchor Bay DVD release containing this documentary looks to be a real dream come true for any admirer of the series, with enough extras to keep the interested consumer busy for a while.
It's an impressive piece of work all around.
8/10
