First of all, i'm gonna say what i liked in the movie. That would be Laure Strode's death. I wasn't expecting this, it was about time, the kiss for goodbye was cool. Another thing i liked was... wait.. that's about it.
Basically i HATE this movie for two main reasons. 1.It's supposed to be a horror movie, a horror movie is supposed to be scary, and this movie is far far faaar from being scary.
2.The creators trashed Michael Myers character.
Oh sorry, one more :
3.Busta Rhymes.
Halloween: Resurrection is predictable, boring, the storyline seems like it was written in .. 10 minutes, and the acting is horrible. But believe me. That's not the worst thing about it.
This movie killed the legend of Michael Myers, and it's all thanks to Busta Rhymes and his Freddie character. So far Michael Myers was a personification of evil. Unstoppable killing machine. After seeing the first Halloween, i often thought, what would i do if one rainy night i would look in a window and see Michael Myers standing outside looking at me ? I would crap my pants and kill myself before he could do it, because there would be no way i could escape him. No way i could beat him. It would be just easier to give myself up to him. Now, after i saw Halloween: Resurrection, i would think : Michael Myers ? Don't just stand there, come upstairs so i can kick your ass.
Why would i think so ? Simply because this movie made him look like a complete looser, a weakling who stood no chance against Busta's character, while Freddie is a brave hero,who literally beat the hell out of Michael, and didn't even break a sweat. He used all kinds of lame phrases, showing, that he is absolutely not afraid of Michael Myers !! Michael Myers - the pure evil, a devil's spawn who should be scaring the crap out of everybody ! Busta was just running his mouth on Michael, using kung-fu moves like some goddamn action hero, and he crushed Michael Myers in combat. Perfect Victory. Oh wait.. Mike did stab him once, but this doesn't count since Freddie was surprised, and in the movie it looked like Michael just got lucky. I almost cried when i saw that.
I almost forgot to mention, that Freddie ruined the whole movie. Mainly because of the fact that he wasn't even close to be afraid of Myers. It's one of the elements of a horror movies, if a victim is afraid of the killer, the viewers are more afraid. Of course there was a lot of "tough guys" in horror movies, but that was the idea - they act like heroes - they get killed, therefore people watching the movie are even more afraid of the killer. Freddie however, is not only brave and tough, but he also, as i already mentioned - beats the crap out of Michael... easily, which is unacceptable.
Also, some of Freddie's kung-fu moves and sounds making while performing those moves, made people laugh. Every single person at the cinema was laughing (except for me, they just wanted to be entertained, i however, am a big fan of Halloween series, so instead of laughing, i cried). This is also unacceptable. The guy who came up with this was either drunk or retarded. Probably both.
Actually, to be honest with you, this whole thing with Freddie p***ed me off so much, and it was so incredibly ridiculous, that even if the movie was scarier than all the other sequels (heellloooo creators of H:R - that's the idea with Horror movies, they're supposed to be S-C-A-R-Y, i can't believe nobody told you that) i would still consider it a bad movie, and the worst of all Halloween titles (yes, even worse than Halloween 3).
