Halloween: H20 (1998)
EW's GRADE
C+Details Release Date: Aug 05, 1998; Rated: R; Genre: Horror; With: Adam Arkin, Jamie Lee Curtis, Josh Hartnett and Michelle Williams; Distributor: Dimension Films
At this point in the evolution of the teen-slasher genre, there are no more scares, shocks, or surprises. We know there's a faceless evil on the loose. And we know that one by one, the faceless evil will kill almost everyone until the heroine (and it's always a heroine) takes a stand. What makes Halloween: H2O, a bookend to the movie that set teens screaming, worth a look is Jamie Lee Curtis, who, in returning as its tattered, haunted, alcoholic heroine, Laurie Strode, electrifies the movie. Her final confrontation with Michael Myers is a redemptive treat worth the 20-year wait. C+
