Worst Halloween Sequel???

[PSU80]

Which Halloween sequel did you hate the most??

For me it's simple, H20. Followed neck and neck by H3 Season of the Witch.

[Draven2277]

All of them.

I'd take that answer save for 4 which is damn good. 2 is pretty decent. The rest of the series can burn in hell.

[Dirtyfrog]

The last 3 or 4 were pretty average compared to 1-2 & 4 but i really have to give my vote to Halloween 3 because it's got nothing to do with Michael Myers and it's plagued by really really bad acting overall (even the great Tom Atkins can't save this one )

Halloween 3 The Season of the Witch

[Cronos]

except for 2,3 and the Producers Cut of 6...they're all shit

[the dead one]

Hmmmmm---let me think....:rolleyes:

[Ratlehed]

Resurrection by far. Stupid story, awfula acting, and lame ending. Mike is also such a wuss in this one. The chainsaw scene is so bad its BAD.

[Antonio]

Damn, I could've sworn the title of this thread was BEST HALLOWEEN SEQUEL! I actually voted for Part 2, my favorite! HaHaHa!

RESURRECTION is easily the worst of the bunch. A dismal moviegoing experience. I didn't like 3 or 6 either. H20, 4 & 5 are flawed but still merit some interest and admiration.

[CHANCE]

-Season of the Witch
-H20
-Resurection

5 and 6 are pretty ok for me cuz I like the Thorn storyline...

I was wondering who voted for Part 2...haha, and yes I agree Res. is the worst...period.


and guys above me, I think he was just listing the sequels he liked. The original is not a sequel.

[TheDeadWalk]

Season of the witch was just a bad movie, period.

However, excluding that one, I thought Halloween 6: The curse of Michael Myers is downright unbearable. They couldn't even go out and get an authentic Myers mask. And that goes for part five, too.

[killuminati003]

ah, You didn't like the mask in 6? I thought the mask in six was probably the best since the original.

I second that statement. I thought the mask in part 6 was scarier than hell.

[The_Shape213]

2 and 4 were the only sequels I liked. The others all sucked. Especially H20.

[EVILxxx]

Halloween 5 was the 'Jasonification' of Michael. Bad sequel with terrible acting and incredibly annoying characters. And the mask is God-awful.

[KillerKlown]

Halloween 5 really sucked the cock. What the fuck was it with the circus clown tune that accompanied the entrance of the two cops? Supposed to be a horror film, no?

All of them past part 3 pretty much reek, but 5 is definately the worst, IMO.

[teenkiller]

The Return is my favorite in the series so it is pretty cool to see that nobody voted for it. You guys may have already guessed it but my vote went to Resurrection. I thought every other entry was at least watchable but I would like to have H8 etched from the recesses of my memory. I feel it was really a missed opportunity. Oh and EVILxxx calling Part 5 the Jasonification of Halloween... that is some funny shit. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[XCoRyX]

I can't believe we're having a three-way dance over this answer?!?!

Busta Rhymes or Tom Atkins?

Kid from Rookie of the Year or Jamie Lloyd?

Everything = Better then Resurrection. (i hope)

[!MorganOnyx!]

It was a toss up between HALLOWEEN 6:THE CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS and HALLOWEEN RESURRECTION. I thought the "THORN" storyline was completely unnecessary (we don't need an explanation - take note ROB).

I voted for RESURRECTION but not because of BUSTA RYHMES (it wasn't all his fault you know - who was the casting director?!!) but it had less of everything out of all the sequels. The acting was generally poor (not the fault of the actors - script problems etc), the directing was uninspired, there weren't many decent kills, MICHAEL MYERS was a bit of a pussy and there simply weren't many scares. :rolleyes:

Halloween: Resurrection made Halloween 5 look like a $100 blowjob.

[ilovemovies]

Halloween 2 - 7/10
Halloween 3 - 0/10
Halloween 4 - 7/10
Halloween 5 - 5/10
Halloween 6 - 6/10
Halloween H20 - 7/10
Halloween Resurrection - 7/10



And if I were to rank the entire Halloween franchise it would go: H20, 4, 2, 1, 8, 6, 5, & 3.

[The Claw]

I was suprised at how much I enjoyed Halloween Resurrection. It was way way way way way way WAY better then either parts 5 or 6, but that's just my opinion.

[zombievictim]

I understand that this is a "Worst" list but it's also a Halloween list and I think that this should be moved into the horror franchises section because of that.

[teenkiller]

Too bad this thread came out a couple of years ago. I would like to have seen how many people would have voted for Rob Zombie's Halloween. I would still stand by my vote for Resurrection but I know a lot of the fans are divided about it so it would be interesting. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[zombievictim]

I know the Remake would take my vote if it were included. God how I hated that piece of garbage.

[poopontheshoes7]

Halloween Resurrection all the way. Pure and utter trash. Never in my day did I think I would see Michael get his ass kicked by a kung-fu Busta Rhymes....He even yelled HIIIIIIIYAAAA! A simply idiotic film from frame one. A couldnt believe the stupid shit they pulled by bringing Michael back. The ending to H20 was PERFECT. Then they go and shit all over it. Ugh....I'll take the remake any day. At least Rob Zombie respected the franchise, even though some may not agree with where he took it.

What in the holy fucking hell? The worst sequel ever. Even worse than the boring, stupid, dull, Halloween 3.

[Wolfe4086]

Does Halloween III really count as a sequel. Hell the only thing it had from the original story was the movie being shown as a movie.

[a7xfan]

h3

[poopontheshoes7]

Does Halloween III really count as a sequel. Hell the only thing it had from the original story was the movie being shown as a movie.

Well, I would think so. Its called Halloween 3. So I guess that means its sequel. Plus, there was this huge plan to make every Halloween sequel a different story with nothing to do with Michael. Didnt work, as you can see.

[Wolfe4086]

Never know the part about the different stories. That is why I questioned if 3 could even count as a sequel. At least now I know the reasoning behind that trainwreck.

[jaw2929]

I don't understand the bitter hatred toward Resurrection. I really enjoyed it! Yea Busta fuckin' Rymes was terrible in it, and the story was shit. But it was a good time, a brainless popcorn enjoyment/experience for me.

I'd go with part 3, since obviously Michael's missing. It was garbage from what I remember when I watched it years ago anyway. Anything with Michael is worth watching and is a good time for me.

[shoe1985]

I didn't mind Resurrection either. It really didn't fit the Halloween mold, and I could list so many problems with the movie. But it was a straightforward movie. It didn't include a lot of subplots that people hated, like Thorn, which I actually liked. It was a new direction, but too new. I can understand the hate, it was too poppy.

If Rob Zombie was on here, I guess we could consider it a sequel, it is still part of the series, I would have voted for that.

I will vote 3 because it didn't have Michael in it, but it was far from a terrible movie. Without the Halloween title, I don't believe it would of had as much hate.

[poopontheshoes7]

I watched Halloween 3 being fully aware that it had nothing to do with Michael. Yet it still blew chunks. It was slow and boring with a stupid plot that got stupider as the movie went on. Just a turd all the way through. The acting was stale, everyone seemed bored out of their minds. Not to mention that fucking commercial that got played over and over and over again. I GET IT! ITS ONLY 3 MORE DAYS STILL HALLOWEEN!! SILVER SHAMROCK!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!!

Maybe I'm overracting a tad, but shit, that was annoying.


:D

Not everyone likes every movie. H3, I feel works on its own. I was never annoyed by the commercial. I thought it had a good idea. But calling it Halloween was wrong.

[countchocula]

Fucking Halloween 5.

[TheAxeGrinder]

Tough choice. I would say Part 3 since it's so frickin' cheesy it's hilarious. For one that had Michael in it, it'd have to be Part 5. Why the hell they started in with that Thorn shite is beyond me.

[Evil Ed]

I don't why all the hate for Part 3? Sure Mikey isn't in it and all that other jazz, BUT it is better than some of the other installments. Even though it doesn't belong in the series it is still a good horror film. I love the mindless robot guys in the black suits who are killing machines, also the mask plot was pretty neat. It keeps its pace a lot better than some of the other films in the series, like 4 & 5 which are basically the same damn movie. I personally watch it (when it is on) more than 4,5, and 6.

My Rank:
Halloween
Halloween 2 (Ranks in the top sequels of all time)
Halloween H20 (the only other one relatively like the new one)
Halloween 3
Halloween 5 (still annoying niece plot- now she has Prof X powers, mask got better)
Halloween 4 (terrible mask- start of the annoying ass niece plot)
Halloween 6 (decent mask, still shitty story- did kane hodder suddenly play mike? seems like it)
Halloween Resurrection (mike getting killed by busta rhymes...)
Halloween Remake (What a disgrace to a great film)

[miamita]

I would say the worst sequel is by far H8. Nothing can top that peice of shit. Horrible, horrible movie.

[JJFlamingo]

Halloween 6: Theatrical Cut easily

[MistAh BlistAh]

Season of the Witch easy, makes Resurrection look like The Godfather...

and no, not because Michael isn't in it, hate having to say that everytime, but someone would have mentioned that later, so I'll just get it out of the way now...

[halloweenfan111]

You people are morons and John Carpenter laughs in your face every time you hand over your cash so he can extend his fhand and have a cheque placed in it. Every sequel after Halloween, the classic original sucks. Halloween III is the only exception. If you diagree, then go fuck yourselves.

[FireCaptain4]

Nice knowing you; don't let the Schmoe community door hit you one your way out. I'm sure the mods will just love your candor.

[Frosty_86]

I went with Halloween Resurrection. Two and H20 are pretty good, it shouldve ended with two and h20 really shouldve been the last one. I wouldve voted for three but I figured its given on how bad that one is. Four and five are pretty terrible, ones just as bad as the other. Six was ok but it's still not a good movie and like four and five it shouldnt have been made. The first one is one of my all time favorites and when I think of the line of bad sequels (not quite but almost as bad as the Friday the 13th sequels) it just really hurts my head.

I didnt think the remake was terrible it just seemed excessive and unneeded and really unwanted. It just wasnt a good movie, it some parts that I though were alright than others that I didnt. I just wish Hollywood would stop with the fucking remakes already especially when a sequel to the original came out less than 15 years ago like Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Although one plus (or two) we get see Danielle Harris in all her glory

Totally not cool man, why even waste your time to troll seriously are you that fucking bored.

[Sgizzy316]

I would have to go with 3

Even though Resurrection was difficult to watch, Season of the With was unbearable IMO

[poguesfan]

Halloween 3 Season of the Witch: if this film had just been a stand alone horror film, I think it would have done better.
Halloween H20: pretty good, but again this is what would happen if Michael Meyers accidentally wander on to the set of The Hills.
Halloween Resurrection: two words Busta Rhymes
Rob Zombie's Halloween remake: please somebody take the camera away from Mr. Zombie, there should be a law passed banning this man from making films
Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Meyers: that ridiculous Druid cult controlling Michael plot device was fucking retarded.

[Ratlehed]

I saw 5 mins of Ressurection on MTV last week. That 5 mins. was so awful. Ressurection is easily the worst. The whole thing with how they handled the end of H20 was SO LAME. The movie doesnt even look or feel like a Halloween film. Zombies remake is a close second as the worst.

[MisterTwister]

Halloween 5 followed closely by Resurrection.

My favorite to least favorite are:

H1, H4, RZ:H2, H2, H3, RZ:H1, H6:PC, H6:TC, H20, H8, H5

[Kevin Smith fan]

Halloween 2-87/100
Easily my favorite sequel of the series, and in my opinion one of the most underrated horror films of all time. This film gets no respect, but in some aspects I think its a far superior film than even the original

Halloween 3:Season of the Witch- 73/100
You really can't hate a film for not having a title character in it...Halloween was intended to be a series of horror stories that occurred on Halloween, but the first Halloween was so successful with the Michael Myers angel that the studios were afraid to venture away from the possibility of continuing the story line.

After the sequel underperformed, Jamie Lee Curtis was ready to move on, and Myers was presumed dead- it was time to move on.

Halloween 3 gets a bad rep, but it really is a pretty great horror/conspiracy thriller. Plus how can you hate Tom Atkins? And that commercial? "3 more days till Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Silver Shamrock!"

Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers- 72/100
Earlier I said that Halloween 2 was one of the most underrated sequels of all time, but this one's got to be one of the most overrated. I really have no interest in this branch of the story at all and the psychokinetic connections his niece seems to have with Myers. Its an alright flick, but not the horror gem people make it out to be. I think the horror junkies are just too high on Danielle Harris.

Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers- 67/100
This flick is just flat out boring. The plot takes us nowhere new, in fact it backtracks. With the way that Return ends with Danielle Harris covered in blood, Revenge avoids what could have been quite the interesting development in the series and instead just regurgitates the same old slasher sequel standards we've seen hundreds of times.

Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers- 27/100
This is the worst. Not even Quentin Tarantino could have saved this film. At least when Season of the Witch strayed from the Michael Myers storyline, it didn't include him. This manages to distance itself with the rest of the series while still promoting the title character.

Halloween: H20- 70/100
Another one that's a bit overrated. Up until the final showdown between Laurie Strode and Michael Myers, this film is actually pretty awful. I think its just the fanboydom in me that can't rate this film below a 7 due to the epic finale.

Halloween: Resurrection- 58/100
This was actually the first Halloween film I'd ever seen, and I didn't think it was all that bad at the time. Then I went and watched the entire rest of the series to realize what a piece of shit this film was. And while its still not the worst entry in the series, its far from the best.

I agree that Halloween 2 is very under-rated. Its a good follow up to the original. It wasnt a carbon copy and it expanded the story.

I also think H3 is better than most people make it out to be. They tried something different. At least they didnt make a bad Michael movie.

Part 4 is a pretty solid sequel. It takes the story in a good direction. The music is good and the atmosphere is pretty creepy. It has a part 1 vibe. It also has good charectars. Jamie, Rachel and Sheriff Meeker are all very likable. Yeah, Loomis shouldnt have survived part 2. But it doesnt wreck the story. I dont think Danielle Harris made or broke the movie. She was good, but it wasnt "her" movie. Its way better than alot of other slasher flicks out there.

Part 5 was the first big fall in the Halloween series. Lame new charectars, story lines that dont go anywhere, and Michael is kinda boring. It has a few good moments. But, overall its pretty bad.

Part 6 had some good ideas. They where just executed poorly. I think its better than 5. They wanted to explain alot, which is fine, they just hurried to much of the story. The Man in Black was a huge let down.

H20 isnt terrible. It just doesnt feel like a Halloween flick. Its a little to pretty and polished. The charectars are a little to soap opera-ish. The kills are okay but Michaels mask isnt.

Ressurection is just awful. No reedeming factors at all.

[jeo4]

I saw Season of the Witch and Resurrection on the same list and flipped a coin.

Season of the Witch sucks shit. At least Resurrection has something to do with Michael. Dont get me wrong, it blows ass, but part 3 is just awful.

[fever55]

Halloween 6 is the worst.

[Dr.Frankenstein]

Halloween 8 :Resurrection (2002)

[MistAh BlistAh]

You're an idiot. Typical cliched Myers fan who doesn't like change. Get back in your crib. Halloween III is by far the ONLY decent sequel in the entire pathetic, cash cow milking series. John Carpenter hates all the sequels that followed: why do you think he sold the rights: so someone else could write crap and he could pick up the check.

Enjoy your stay on the Joblo forums, I have a feeling it's going to be a short one...

[KillerKlown]

You're an idiot.

[screamer581]

Halloween 5 by far.


Halloween 3 has turned into a guilty pleasure for me overtime.

[Antonio141]

Man, it's a toss-up between Part 6 and Resurrection, but I went with the latter! It should've been titled Halloween 'N The Hood!!!

[HurricanesR1]

Season of the Witch

but the worst Michael Myers-related Halloween sequel is Resurrection.

[Tagia_Romero]

5 and 6. Abysmal and confusing beyond belief.

Additionally I would like to say this- Season of the Witch was actually a solid film, it just wasn't a good 'Halloween' film, which is perhaps what bummed a lot of people out. It's title completely mislead the audience and this alone was enough to make them contemptuous toward the movie itself, despite it having a wonderfully scathing observation of the culture of the time, especially when it came to how dominant television was in children's lives (and dare I say, even now) plus, Tom Atkin's performance is wonderfully melodramatic that it's hard to truly dislike it.

[ben20]

Halloween 3 is the only one in the series that I didn't like. Tom Atkins and a few gory kills are all it had going for it.

[Sheriff Jigsaw]

Haven't seen 5 & 6 but 3 has to be the worst no Mike Myers No Halloween simple as that. Resurrection was pretty awful as well, my favourite has to be 4 quality ending.

[darknite125]

Halloween Resurection. I don't count H3 as part of the series and H6 was stupid but I dug parts of it.

[Sheriff Jigsaw]

Just bought & viewed number 6, now I'd say it's a close one between 3 & 6.

[Terminal_83]

I voted for Resurrection as the worst. Below I posted my thoughts on the sequels like everyone else has.

Halloween 2 - 7.5/10
This was a great sequel in my opinion. Sure it turned Michael in to an average slasher and missed the point of the first movie by a mile, but it is filled with a lot of dread and tension and has some great moments including Michael impaling that poor nurse. This was a lot of fun to watch and Jamie Lee Curtis never misses a beat as Laurie.

Halloween 3 The Season of the Witch - 6/10
This was not a bad movie overall. When I first saw it I had no idea it had nothing to do with the Michael Myers arc so I hated it, but after re-watching it later I admired its originality and appreciated it on its own terms. Had it just been released under a different title it may have just been another horror film from the eighties.

Halloween 4 The Return of Michael Myers - 7/10
This is a great movie in my opinion because I think Danielle Harris is a great successor to Curtis. Not only does her vulnerability and innocence make her the perfect final girl, but the girl can scream. Not to mention Jamie is a very sympathetic character and the pain she goes through is terrible.

Halloween 5 The Revenge of Michael Myers - 6.5/10
The lesser of the sequels, I thought the primary problem with this is the lack of a core character. The heroine from "The Return" is offed, Jamie is only just an observer, and then we just follow around a bunch of random characters we know are going to suffer painful deaths. Not to mention Michael's mask is hideous in this.

Halloween 6 The Curse of Michael Myers - 7/10
I consider this film to be very underrated. Paul Rudd, though basically disowning this film years later, is good as the demented hero who basically falls in to this ludicrous situation with a straight face. In spite of killing Jamie off horribly, the movie is fun. There are some great kills, and a lot of great moments. The scene where they witness the surgeons being slaughtered is great, and the scene where Rudd is trying to bash the door open as Michael approaches him slowly is tense. I like this.

H20 - 7/10
This movie isn't as bad as a lot of people say it is. That's just my opinion of course, I'm not claiming it's fact. Anyway, I think this was a great wrap up to the original series. It paid tribute to the original movie, had great continuity, dropped all that Mark of Thorn bullshit and had a classic confrontation between Michael and Laurie. Granted, it's very flawed, but the final scene is a great finisher to the Michael and Laurie war.

Halloween Resurrection - 4/10
This movie is a disaster and I voted for it on this poll. The main problem with the movie is that it's so utterly void of relating to anything of this series that it could have taken out Michael and the Laurie Strode preamble, retitled and fit with a different killer and no one would have known the difference. In fact, I think had it been retooled, it may have been a tolerable (if forgettable) slasher. This movie has ZERO forward progression for the series. It serves no purpose but to collect quick cash. It has zero connection to the lore, eliminates Laurie in the most cliche way possible, and then just keeps Michael in the same place he was last time. Not to mention the fact that the casting is ridiculous is just deplorable. Busta Rhymes is the most obnoxious hero in horror movie history, Tyra Banks has no purpose here, and the entire cast are just throwaway fading 90's stars collecting a pay check. This movie is horrible. No wonder the series died and was handed over to a hard rock hack.

[waterslideguy]

I vote for Halloween Resurrection!

Honestly, when I saw it in '02 theatrically, I didn't think it was that bad. How wrong I was... Laurie Strode dies in one of the dumbest ways imaginable. The kiss... Everything about this sucks. It's sick to kill off someone like this in such a stupid way. I recently saw this on MTV again, and I didn't make it through the movie. It's just not good enough to watch the whole thing anymore.

Halloween 3 is a bad movie! I agree with Roger Ebert's review on this film. However, it did have a little atmosphere, the catchy jingle, and the interesting masks. At least it felt like a Halloween holiday movie -- which some of the other Halloween sequels do not.

Halloween 4 (also known as Halloween turned F13 sequel) has a few good scenes = Jamie in her room; the store, the ending. This is the film, before Rob Zombies offerings, that turned Haddonfield into a redneck town. So, some points off for that. The rednecks on the hunt bring the film down into nonsense. Also, Michael somehow being under the truck makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. This was impossible. To be fair, Halloween 2 tried to up the F13 murders as well.

Halloween 6 = average producer's cut. I saw this in '97. In most cases, it's better than the theatrical version. I did enjoy Beth's murder setup and the chase music across the street better in the theatrical version. But the producer's cut fleshes out the movie more. The producer's cut feels like a movie with the proper soundtrack; the theatrical cut feels like an extended shot MTV music video.

Not a big fan of Halloween turned Dawson's Creek with the Scream soundtrack = H20.

[Derek237]

Halloween III gets my vote for the worst sequel, for sure. It was just a lousy movie, Michael Myers or not.

If we're talking sequels that involve the Michael Myers plot line then my vote goes to HALLOWEEN 5! Yuck!

Halloween Resurrection was bad, but it was somewhat entertaining. It doesn't take itself too seriously and if it weren't for the dreadful Busta Rhymes Kung Fu scene I think people wouldn't be as hard on the movie as they are.

Halloween H20 at least had Jamie Lee Curtis returning as Laure Strode, and yeah the movie is flawed as hell but if you don't get pumped up when Laurie is walking with the axe screaming "MICHAEL" then I don't know how to help you.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers is at least so ridiculous that it's actually kind of fun to watch. Plenty of gore, plenty of awful early Paul Rudd "acting." Nonsensical, cheesy fun.


People generally like 2 and 4 so I don't need to defend them.


Halloween 5, though....is just completely fucking pointless. It's basically part 4 all over again with some stupid twist that his niece has some psychic connection to him and blah blah blah it's just fucking BORING. I really hate it. If a movie is stupid, it's one thing, but if it's just lazy and uneventful then why am I even fucking watching it?

In fact, the more I think about it, the more I want to change my vote to Halloween 5 now. Oh well. 3 and 5 are definitely the worst in my book.
