This summer, terror won't be taking a vacation.
After faking her death and changing her name to evade the murderous Michael Myers, Laurie Strode, now a teacher at a Southern California private school, is again targeted by her nemesis. Most of the school goes away on a trip, but her son John stays behind along with his girlfriend and a couple of other kids.
John is now the age that Laurie was when Michael first attacked her friends, and she is scared and seemingly over-protective. But her fears are proved right when Michael returns to town, stalking first the teens and then Lauie herself.
Critic Reviews:
- “Halloween: H20 is as stylish and scary as it is ultra-violent. It brings back a stunning Jamie Lee Curtis in the role that made her a star and it's a work of superior craftsmanship in all aspects.” - Kevin Thomas (Los Angeles Times
- “It's a fitting enough capstone for one of horror cinema's more memorable series, I suppose, but when it ended I wanted, more than anything else, to go peruse the original.” - Marc Savlov (Austin Chronicle)
- “Taken as a sequel to Halloween, this is just above average; taken as a sequel to Halloween Two, which is where most of its backstory comes from, it looks terrific.” - Kim Newman (Empire Magazine)
