I'm not sure how I stumbled across this film but I am glad I did. It's not very well known but considering the cast includes Jared Padalecki (Sam from Supernatural), Lindy Booth and even Jon Bon Jovi amongst others, as well as being made fairly recently it deserves better publicity! It has a good plot, good acting and a good twist too. It's not that scary to be honest and won't satisfy gore fans but otherwise an all round enjoyable film. Similar to Urban Legend, Scream and another slasher but I won't name it as it'll give the twist away!

Barry Newman (204 KP) rated American Horror Story - Season 9 in TV

Well the story isn't as deep as previous seasons and you certainly miss Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson from the cast but I am a sucker for an 80's slasher movie so still got allot of enjoyment out of this. I really liked the look and vibe of this season (the opening titles are brilliant) that captures the decade very well. Some of the plot twists are completely ridiculous but it rattles along at a fast pace and is never boring and made for a very entertaining season if not quite up with the series best.

Sadly a dud.

Opening with a somewhat controversial sequence of Michael stalking Laurie Strode, I personally enjoy the opening scenes. But after that, it's all downhill.

Halloween Resurrection features a terrible cast, while some do their best, others are dreadful. It's lead by Busta Rhymes who's overtop acting mixes terribly with the worst character in the movie. Bianca Kajlich is the final girl, and she's a pretty average one at that.

On another upside, this movie does feature some cool camera work, utilizing head cams.

Overall though, Halloween Resurrection is an average slasher, with some terrible characters, not recommended.

Gore

Finally seen I've been wanting to see the movie since I first watched the trailer last September for movie that's part mean girls part freaky Friday with a dash of 80s slasher movies this movie has it all u haven't seen it all till u see Vince Vaughan channeling his inner teenage girl persona had me in stitches and Kathryn Newton as millie and the butcher is a star in the making. There are some good kills in this movie with plenty of gore. Overall worth the long wait to see the movie

Feels low budget (2 more)

Poor acting

Predictable

Disappointing

I waited a long time to see this, as it only recently became available on UK Netflix. The first 2 series were great and felt like very good Slasher films and were done well as a series.
This is no where near as good though sadly. Low budget, mainly filmed in a small apartment block. The story isn't as good and becomes fairly predictable by about the 5 episode. It felt like a bit of a slog to finish even at 8 episodes. Stick to the first 2 series.

Silent suspense

Maddie (Kate Siegel) is a deaf writer, living a “quiet” life in the woods, secluded and alone, trying to heal after the breakdown of her last relationship.

Queue the bad guy played by John Gallagher Jr... and what follows is an 82 minute, interesting game of cat and mouse.

It’s a fresh take on the standard home invasion/slasher movie genre with the added element of her disability. Expect some great scenes, good acting from the small cast involved and no complicated storyline.

Try to overlook the inconsistencies, the plot holes and occasional predictability.
