HALLOWEEN
II
With
Jamie
Lee
Curtis,
Donald
Pleasence,
Charles
Cyphers,
Jeffrey
Kramer,
Lance
Guest,
Pamela
Susan
Shoop,
Dick
Warlock
Directed
by
Rick
Rosenthal
While
it
was
written
by
originators
John
Carpenter
and
Debra
Hill,
unfortunately
it
was
directed
by
someone
else,
resulting
in
it
losing
the
original
magic.
As
is
often
unavoidable
with
cash-in
sequels,
it
can
never
outdo
the
original.
But,
this
continuation
of
Michael
Myers
terrorizing
his
hometown
after
escaping
from
the
nuthouse
does
deliver
some
good
moments.
Predominantly
set
in
the
creepy
after
hours
of
the
hospital
where
terrorized
babysitter
Laurie
has
been
admitted
after
her
Halloween
night
ordeal
(fleeing
from
Myers
and
witnessing
many
of
her
friends
skewered
with
a
huge
butcher
knife).
Part
three
had
no
relation
whatsoever
to
Michael
Myers
(aka
The
Shape),
but
it
was
pretty
much
downhill
after
that.
Still,
we
can
hold
the
original
dear,
even
if
Rob
Zombie’s
remake
turns
out
not
half
bad.
