You mean Kills?
I thought, like the first movie, it was too derivative of the original(s).
The "lynch mob" bit was straight from Halloween 5, except it was a smaller group of drunken rednecks.
There were some bits I liked, and some bits that made me cringe. A lot of the acting was bad.
I think my biggest problem with the movie was how inconsistent they were with Michael's "supernatural powers" (which I thought the whole point of retconning the sequels was to re-write him as being more human, like in the first film??):
In some scenes, he is completely impervious to damage or impact...blunt force, stabbings, and even a fire hose did absolutely nothing to deter him or slow him down.
In other scenes, he's back to his traditional power level, and a baseball bat easily knocks him down momentarily.
Also, I thought this was the "movies I refuse to watch" thread
PS. Halloween Kills should have a drinking game, take a shot anytime someone watching it yells "SHOOT HIM AGAIN/GET BACK, HE'S NOT DEAD YET".
