I've been a fan of Halloween for many years. I never bothered to watch this for real because I read so many bad things with it, but my boyfriend and I watched H20 and got very into it, so we wanted to watch some of the others as well. That journey ended with H6.
I thought it was an interesting new idea to bring in the cult and the curse, but it was so poorly written and wasn't fleshed out at all. It was like they tried to do something new with that, but then they also wanted to make it a typical Halloween movie with some slashing in Haddonfield, and also follow up on Tommy from the original. And also they should be ashamed of what they did with Jamie. She was an incredible character that actually managed to keep Halloween going for 2 movies after the original two with Laurie. That's not easy, and she did it! Then they replace the actress with a less than good one (to say the least), that looks nothing like Danielle Harris?! There's no character development with her and she barely gets to do anything before they just kill her off. Jamie deserves a hell of a lot better than that!
And what's up with Loomis magically getting tattoo with the cult's symbol at the end??
Very obvious why they would scrap what this series had come to and semi-reboot it with Halloween 20 Years Later with Jamie Lee (which was great), but then they had to go ruin it again with Resurrection.
This film series is just a whole mess in general, but this definitely is a weak entry.
