Better then #5, but still flawed.
In a weird turn for the franchise, a cult has forced Michael Myers to impregnate Jamie Lloyd, in an attempt to end his bloodline he kills Jamie, but she hid the baby from him, the infant is found by Tommy Doyle (Paul Rudd in his introductory role), Doyle lives across the street from the former Myers house, now housing a new family of Strode's. Michael returns to Haddonfield, and death follows.

It's apparent that director Joe Chappelle is trying to harken back to John Carpenter's style of film-making. Focusing more on trying to create tension then fill the film with death scenes. Michael actually doesn't have as much screen time here. We return to him sneaking around in the shadows.

Mostly H6's weakness is in it's acting, they just fail to feel believable, thus ruining what suspense Chappelle created, then there's the weird plotline which will turn away some viewers.

This one also marks Donald Pleasence's last time as Loomis, it's sad but he's also a bit unnecessary at this point.

I enjoyed Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers for what it was, I think if you're open to the strange plot you will too.
