Author Topic: Halloween: Resurrection Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 07-12-2002 05:57 PM                     You know how when you eat ice cream too fast you get those headaches which send you into massive amounts of pain for a few seconds? That's what it's like watching HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION. The only difference is that the pain doesn't go away.  |  IP: Logged Jim Casterioto Film Handler Posts: 32 From: Wilmington, DE, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 07-12-2002 06:16 PM                        Halloween wasn't as bad as Mike indicated in his review. Of course it is not a four star movie, however it kept me entertained despite the print problems that I encountered mentioned in another post.  |  IP: Logged Mike Schindler Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1039 From: Oak Park, IL, USA Registered: Jun 2002 posted 07-12-2002 06:24 PM                     Print problems? I thought that the filmmakers intentionally threw the sound out of sync just to break up the monotony a bit. Also, this movie did to HALLOWEEN: H20 what ALIEN 3 did to ALIENS. That's not a good thing.  |  IP: Logged Michael Gonzalez Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 790 From: Grand Island , NE USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 07-13-2002 10:21 PM                     A funny thing, my dad had mentioned just the other day how most of the Friday the 13th movies have been crap but that they haven't made a bad Holloween Movie (Season of the witch dosn't count). I hadn't even heard of this movie until I saw it on the booking sheets last week.  |  IP: Logged Michael Barry Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 584 From: Sydney, NSW, Australia Registered: Nov 1999 posted 07-14-2002 12:18 AM                     Well, the jury's still out on the sequels but the original Halloween - John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN - is a bonafide masterpiece if ever there was one. But all you Film-Tech savvy movie types would know that already! It's very, very worthy of a re-release. It probably won't happen, though. More's the pity, because I was too young to experience it in a theatre.  |  IP: Logged
