Twenty years after the original HALLOWEEN, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), now the headmistress of a Northern California private school under an assumed name, is still struggling with the terrifying memories of the psychotic killer Michael Myers. That horror becomes a reality once again when Michael returns, embarking on a murderous roadtrip from Illinois to California, killing three more people and stealing a victim's car before threatening the lives of Laurie's rebellious son (Josh Hartnett), his girlfriend (Michelle Williams), and the school security guard (LL Cool J). It's up to Laurie to conquer her internal demons and end Michael's evil. And a conveniently placed ax might just help her accomplish the task....
Halloween H2o Reviews:
"...H2O is brisk...involving, and plays expertly on its audience's expectations..."
-- Kim Newman, Sight and Sound
"...Williamson has put his pop-cultural smarty-pants spin on slasher conventions....[Leigh] lights up [her scenes]..."
-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
"...Engineered to cater strictly to fans of the genre and, in particular, the HALLOWEEN films, an aim at which it succeeds admirably..."
-- Wade Major, Box Office
"...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 is alright I think that Michael should have left Jamie Lloyd to be in this one but still it is good Submitted by pussyballs63 (Sydney) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 2 of 2 found this helpful.
This is a great dvd lots of feature I have been looking everywhere to get all the Halloween's on dvd. Halloween 2,3,4,6 and H20 are discountined and are VERY HARD TO FIND!!!. Everywhere I went to find it said it would be about 40 dollars or more. I then looked at DVD universe and found it for the low low price. I was happy I now have all the dvd's. If you liked the first one or any of them for that matter COLLECT THEM. Submitted by Diamond_D_17 (Anywhere but where I am, Indiana) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 1 of 1 found this helpful.

The Real Halloween 3!! When it comes right down to it, like it or not, this is the true Halloween 3. We all know that the original Halloween 3 had nothing at all to do with the first two films. The other sequels 4 - 6, began branching off the main characters as extended family of the Laurie Strode character who was supposed to be dead. With Halloween H20, the sequels 4 to 6 are basically tossed out the window and erased from accepted Halloween Canon. The good news is that none of those films were particularly great and other than the inclusion of Donald Pleasance as the avenging Dr. Loomis, they are most forgettable.
Not that this film is perfect mind you..it takes some awfully big leaps in logic. It's supposed to be 20 years later and Laurie Strode is now the head-master of an exclusive private school. Years ago she faked her death and took on the alias of Keri Tate in order to hide herself from her brother Michael. But when papers of Dr. Loomis that reveal her true identity come up missing, the Shape is once again on her trail, bent on finishing the job he started 20 years earlier.
Josh Hartnett plays Strode's son John who is supposed to leave with most of the rest of the kids on a trip, but instead stays in the almost emply school grounds with his girlfriend and several other kids to have their own private party free from adults. Naturally they are the first to encounter Michael Myers who manages to slip past the worlds worst security guard played by L.L. Cool J.
Despites some of the implausibilites of the script, it's the most effective thriller in the series since Halloween II. The scene where Laurie manages to lock a door before michael can get her, but they still come face to face due to a window is a genuinely creepy scene. Add to that is the fact that H20 Director Steve Minor was a far more experienced and accomplished director than the three guys who did the previous sequels and you have a far more effective film.
All in all, when if comes right down to it, this is the true Halloween 3! Submitted by reinvention23 (Ohio) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
