One of the worst horror films ive seen
The story line had potential but the delivery was horrific. I barley made it through. Definitely cringe worthy.
I feel the same way. Only saw it once in theaters, the others I've seen multiple times. Own it for collection's sake, but hardly ever watch it.

Not every film can be appreciated in a single viewing. Some films I disliked or didn't care for the first few times I saw them but I persevered.
I want even that keen on either of Zombie's H films the first time I saw the . But looking at the combination of things he took from the original franchise and some things he added or developed further, they are solid films.
One thing I'd ditch is his wife, she sucks. But this H2 beats many of the original films (especially the later ones) hands down.
So you prefer a Michael who is maskless, grunts, speaks dresses in a parka and stomps people? That is simply not the character. Not even close. His first outing was closer to Michael, despite his hulking size. Speaking of characters, Loomis was never that horrible, even alcoholic druggie H20 Laurie wasn't as bad as this version and even Annie and Sheriff Brackett aren't likeable.
Had it not been called Halloween or had Michael Myers name in it, it would've been okay. But as it was, it was everything a Halloween film never was.

Agreed, Dave.
