Review Detail

Halloween Kills was promised to be the ultimate slasher by John Carpenter himself, with this cut I feel like I can actually see that. It's Halloween Kills without the clunky dialogue and excruciating pace, and makes for a good sequel. Sometimes fan service is done right, but I don't think I've seen a movie mess it up more than Halloween Kills which is where this cut really delivers. Nothing sticks out like a sore thumb, bad one liners are gone, and it's suddenly a very fun 90-minute slasher.

Hospital scene is still a drag, though, just less-so.
