- Sometimes...dead is better. Wait wrong movie! Halloween: Resurrection brings back Michael Myers and Laurie Strode for an unnecessary cash grab sequel. Almost universally dubbed the worst of the Halloween series, am I here to add to the hate or dodge bullets as I defend Halloween: Resurrection?

"Coming out of the closet with a chainsaw" Sounds like the plot of an lgbt horror film
ChillStormtrooper 2003 Texas Chainsaw massacre: the next generation
@@bassmanplays7285 LOL pretty much
@@bassmanplays7285 XD
Lol 😂 😂
The real ? Is why was there a chainsaw with gas still in it in the closet to begin with
The scene where Michael follows Busta through the house while they’re wearing the same outfit makes me cry laughing every time
AHAHAHAHAHAA i forgot that scene!!!! omfg yesss ahahahaha
“Oh shit man! Charlie were the fuck you been at man? Don’t you know we been looking all over this mother fucker for you? And why the hell you dressed like me anyway? I ain’t paying you to be Michael Myers. I’m playing Michael Myers…and them kids come around and see you dressed up in the same shit you gonna ruin the whole effect. God damn it, what the hell is it wrong with you? I said what you looking at me like that for? Huh? You don’t get it? You don’t get it? Your shit ain’t workin up there or something? You need to take your ass into the back of the garage with Nora. That’s your job. Go back there with Nora and help her ass out. Go do your job. I left the back door unlocked for your ass to go out the back into the garage. That’s what I did. You need to get the hell out of here. Get out. Scoot. Scadadle. Get the fuck out of dodge. God damn. What the hell’s somebody gotta do to get a little decent help up in this mother fucker?”
~ Freddie Harris
Halloween Resurrection
Acts 2:38
Reminds me of the spider man scene
You gon ruin the whole effect….god dammit 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You failed to mention the knife sound effects throughout the entire movie. That shit was so bad. Another great review Cody!
Rick Rosenthal loves to set characters on fire.
He really does
You’re pumping out a lot of quality content bro! Good stuff!
Go check out Resurrection deleted scene
Your delivery was Waaaaaaaaaay better then Her's Cody
Yeah Cody was way more enthusiastic.
Her's?
Cody I agree with all that you said. That being said this one is my guilty pleasure I just skipped the scene where my heart (Jamie Lee Curtis)
Is ripped out of my chest. It doesn't exist.
I can see it as a guilty pleasure
@@CodyLeachYT can you pretty please do a video of you ranking the Leatherfaces
Yeah, Busta Rhymes and Ice Cube = Two Rappers who have a "Don't you fucking kill me or even let anyone one-up my masculinity in the movie" clause when they're put in horror movies.
LOL You're killing it with this "Halloween" series, Cody. I totally agree on this one. It does have some decent elements and a promising premise but quickly squanders it. The first sign of trouble was how they had Laurie go down like a punk. Still, at least it's not "Freddy's Dead." I gave this one the exact same rating you did.
I was hoping you'd mention Sarah's lines in the chainsaw scene.. "For all of them!"
😂🤣
Lol I know that was so bad 😭🤣
I haven't read all through the comments and I've only seen 90% of Resurrection. If the point is they kill off Laurie and now he's no longer pursuing his sister...what about her son? If he's killing his family, why doesn't he go after Laurie's son from H20?
The reason why I and most people think this is the worst Halloween, is because other than Laurie's 3 minutes of screen time this film had absolutely nothing to do with any other storyline in the franchise and it just blows as we all know.
Cody is on a ROLL with these Halloween reviews!!! Take that, other UA-cam horror review channels!
Throwing down the gauntlet!
Sara (Bianca Kajlich) - The final Girl, had a role in Dawson’s Creek Season 6 as a character who’s an actress filming a shitty horror movie as the main girl that ends up straight to cable.
It’s like the universes were connected, throughout the season, her character was filming Halloween: Resurrection basically
Correct
I always get those nostalgic vibes that you get Cody. I am a 90s kid and will forever love that time was the best time ever being a kid in the world and growing up watching Disney, Nickelodeon etc. Good times, I always reminisce on the 90s.
About the whole Freddie making fun of Michael part, the filmmakers said that Michael initially thought it was his self conscious talking too him lol but still could've been better executed
Lol Cody. I have always felt the same way about those lines by Sarah at end😂.
I totally think bvb u did it better...
Yelp always bugged me as well Cody did the lines better lol
I laugh my ass off whenever sarah comes out of the closet and starts spitting out those lines.
Much better.
Those line never bugged me. It's not cringy. It's called acting. And she did it better.
@@thebadassninja5847 its not her acting thats bad. It was her dialogue, her lines were just poorly written. Smh..
Dude that chainsaw scene ugh.
It looked liked she just scratched him with it, anybody else and they'd be spurts of blood. And then she has to not only run out of gass, throw it at him terribly but then fall over a cart and get hurt and pinned and a fire starts, pathetic.
They also had to dub in her screams because the actress couldn't scream properly.
She was no Leatherface that's for sure. If anyone's a dab hand with a chainsaw it's him.
I can imagine Michael sarcastically thinking "Oh no I've just been lightly grazed on the shoulder with a chainsaw. However will I get out of this one. Then probably "Bitch, my old doctor once set me on fire but I've taken shits worse than what you've just done."
Her acting omg. How the fuck do people like her get roles? I could do a way better job.
I absolutely hate the retcon of H20's ending and the first 10 minutes because they gave Laurie the same treatment that they gave Rachel in Halloween 5. I like the whole found footage aspect and the cinematography which are the only redeeming qualities this film has going for it.
20:23 That'd make sense as the majority of Dimension's Hellraiser sequels were unrelated films that they just decided to put Pinhead in and make Hellraiser films at the last minute. So I wouldn't be surprised if this originally wasn't going to be a Halloween film.
Xehanort10 naw the original script was called Halloween: homecoming and it’s almost the exact same script but no busta rhymes and Tyra banks, the main difference is that a bunch of college kids set up a web show in the Myers house to live stream during Halloween and Michael comes home after killing Laurie and the blood bath begins but most of the characters were the same
Daniel Farrands who wrote Halloween 6 had a better idea for a sequel to H20 than Resurrection was and it involved Tommy Doyle being institutionalised in Smith's Grove because he was believed to have committed some murders that were actually Michael's doing but he gets out and meets Lindsey Wallace who Laurie was babysitting along with him in 1978 and they come across Michael and try to get away from him. It would have had flashbacks to Loomis's therapy sessions with Michael in Smith's Grove too.He eventually did it in comic book form with Halloween One Good Scare.
Xehanort10 the planned sequel to resurrection would have seen josh hartnett (Laurie’s son from H20) finding out about Laurie’s death and pulling a tommy Jarvis from Friday the 13th and wanting revenge on Michael.
Was first named "Halloween: The Homecoming", but producers wanted a title that said Michael Myers is alive so in February 2002, the film was officially named Halloween: Resurrection (2002).
Jamie Lee Curtis was quoted as saying she considered this film a joke.
John Carpenter has stated that the movie made him cringe.
While in the asylum, Laurie Strode has a Raggedy Ann doll. In the original movie, she had a similar Raggedy Ann doll on the dresser in her bedroom.
Jamie Lee Curtis appears on the movie cover with short hair, despite having long hair in the film. If looked at more closely, one can easily tell that it's the same picture of her that was used for the poster of the previous film, Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998).
In 2015 when being interviewed by Toofab, Jamie Lee Curtis has said that this film was a complete joke, and that the only reason why she did the film was because she signed a contract when doing Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998), because that was the only way she could have Halloween H20 made.
Stuntman Brad Loree, a lifelong horror enthusiast and fan of the 'Halloween' films, plays Michael Myers in this installment. Loree stated that, had the series not been rebooted after 'Resurrection', he would have liked to reprise the role of Myers, as he enjoyed the role.
Bianca Kajlich cannot scream and her screams had to be dubbed in post production.
Jamie Lee Curtis has played Laurie Strode in films released in six different decades from the 1970s to the 2020s: Halloween (1978), Halloween II (1981), Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998), Halloween: Resurrection (2002), Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills(2021) and Halloween Ends (2022).
The only one movie to establish Michael Myers' birth date: October 19, 1957.
Jamie Lee Curtis was contractually obligated to be in a sequel, supposedly for a 30-second cameo, but reportedly was so interested in the story that she agreed to do a full four-day shoot and appeared in the entire opening sequence. However she has discounted this and only did it because she didn't want her character to be in any more films. She saw this film as a joke.
This film is the first one in which Michael kills a victim by decapitation.
Freddie Harris' surname is an homage to Danielle Harris, who played Michael Myers' niece, Jamie Lloyd, in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988) and Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989).
(at around 17 mins) In the first scene at the college, Sara Moyer (Bianca Kajlich) is shown twirling her hair, much like Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) does in the class room scene in the original Halloween.
Sara says that Michael's knife would be in an evidence room locker, in the beginning of Bride of Chucky (1998), Michael's mask is shown in an evidence room locker.
Michael's use of a spiked leg of a tripod as a weapon is an homage to Michael Powell's Peeping Tom (1960).
(At around 8 mins) The security camera footage showing Michael walking down a corridor is similar to Halloween II (1981) when the security footage shows Michael walking down a hospital hallway both movies were directed by Rick Rosenthal.
Michael's knife is a, 12" Victorinox Forschner with Rosewood Handle.
The name Jen Danzig is a reference to Glenn Danzig, the former singer and leader of The Misfits, who wrote and sung the songs Halloween and Halloween II after the original movie was released. The two songs have nothing to do with the movies, because their lyrics do not even touch the main plot.
When Laurie is killed by Michael and falls through the trees, you can hear the same "landing on the floor" sound effect from when Michael falls out of the window at the end of the original Halloween.
Ryan Merriman (Myles) and Billy Kay (Scott) were both born on April 10th.
The film's poster, has Laurie reflected on the bottom of the knife, which is also bloodied at the tip.
Laurie Strode is only in the film for the first 15 minutes and only says 11 lines of dialogue. Despite this, Jamie Lee Curtis still gets top billing as part of the cast.
at around 16 mins) At the beginning of the movie Harold begins to recount the victims of the first two films and he says three teenagers were killed, along with three nurses and a paramedic. This is completely wrong. Four teenagers were killed (Annie, Bob, Linda and Alice (the girl talking on the phone at the beginning of the second movie) and four nurses, a paramedic, a security guard, a doctor, and a marshal, as well as the truck driver who was found by Dr. Loomis, which is where Michael got his jumpsuit.
Nora Winston's (Tyra Banks's) death scene was originally onscreen. Publicity stills and behind-the-scenes photos proved that her death scene was filmed. It involved Michael stringing her up with electrical wire and him repeatedly stabbing her in the abdomen as she struggled (which explains the pool of blood Sara slips on in the garage). The scene was later cut, as a suggestion by Brad Loree, the stuntman who played Michael, as he stated "Every horror movie has to have a character find the body of someone you didn't know was dead."
Body count: 10. (Plus one character presumed dead, but it's unconfirmed. If you count the bodies from the flashbacks then the body count is 14.)
Second Halloween movie to have Michael get burned in a fire at the end, first was Halloween II (1981), both were directed by Rick Rosenthal.
(at around 1h 17 mins) Tyra Banks' character's death was cut. You can still see the aftermath in the movie.
Michael switching outfits with the paramedic (how he survived the previous film) is similar to the producers' cut ending to Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995), where Michael switches outfits with Dr. Wynn.
How they couldn’t get the mask right in all these movies will forever blow my mind.
Right! Only the 1978 and 2018 version got it right
@@roye5674 well of course 1978.. that's what brought the mask to be what its supposed to be
@@Brendan656 The Curse mask was really good.
@@scottyj8655 the rz mask was very good
Millions of dollars but they can’t recreate a $2 mask.
-Busta Rhymes
-Tyra Banks
-The dude from American Pie (whose name I can't remember, but that description of him perhaps says it better than his name would)
...in a horror movie. Yeah, this has disaster written all over it without even seeing it.
Unfortunately, I have seen it.
I feel your pain.
His name in American Pie is Kevin Myers
@gnc623 Yep 🤦🏻♂️
@Stone Gasman DUDE! I never realized that. haha. That movie was hilarious!
This movie is more 2000s then anything I can think of
Damn that was fast. Your pumping out content like a beast
When Cody mentioned he didn’t like the mask I didn’t get the reason because the thumb nail in the background for the mask looks great but once he clarified it only looks good in dark lit scenes like the one he used I understood
Edit: you got my subscription I’m diggin your videos
This makes Rob Zombie's films look incredible.
Hah your smoking crack
Brando the Geek No, it really doesn't. As bad as Resurrection is, Rob Zombie's films (especially that piece of shit sequel) give me headaches.
Nope, nothing will
Rob Zombie is trash. Worst movies he has ever made, resurrection destroys rob zombie Halloween movies combined.
@@Panthorium no rob zombies halloween movies are waay better
All the sequels were inferior. Halloween 5, 6, and Resurrection have a special place in UP YOURS land for me...(though I give the Producer's Cut of Part 6 a slightly higher score, but only a little.)
Unfortunately, this wasn't another script idea with Meyers shoved in. I have a few drafts of this, and it was always Halloween.
I'm watching H20 right now. Love Josh Hartnetts goofy haircut. And 'LL Cool J tells him to comb his hair.
I like all the "Psycho" references. But to much time in between kill-scenes. And not enough of them.
REALISM-SHMEALISM !!
I'm not a fan of resurrection at all. But people moan about how they brought Myers back. How else were they supposed to realistically bring him back. Bolt of lightening? Telekinetic girl revives him? The man had his head chopped off. The old switcharoo was the only way. Still sucks though.
fromthevault101 I agree with this 90%. I’m a fan. But fans would probably have wanted to see the next Halloween movie after H20.
Chris Terry Yes! Agree.
Go check out Resurrection deleted scene
Actually there are ways you haven't thought of. Micheal could have put Laurie's bf in the suit and mask. Because Laurie was in the hospital they could have said the accident caused a concussion causing her to hallucinate and have a break down, especially since he really got away. Both of those would've been genius compared to the bs we got. They could've even said being so traumatized by the event she actually kidnapped the body of her bf who wasn't dead came back to life but because she was so traumatized she saw him as Michael wrecked the van and chopped his head off. Only Michael escaped for real no one found his body. Still a better plot twist.
WooHollywood Celebrity which one?
Hey Cody, I agree with you 95 % of the time. I disagree on Freddy's Dead(The same relationship you have with child's play 3 is what I have for Freddy's Dead, although I did see 1-5 prior, but I was a toddler and didn't understand storytelling yet. And it was my first Freddy film in theatres as I saw in in 91 when it came out) I got to say, you forgot another reason why it made no sense. If that was the paramedic in the ending of H20, he would've been dead. Because no man can survive that hit from a Van. They would've had internal bleeding and died. At least with the thorn demon storyline it would make sense since he is unkillable.
I think you forgot to mention the paramedic apparently is also impossible to kill and immortal like Myers cuz Laurie crushed him with the van twice and he survived.. Also when pinned he grabbed his head with both hands. If it wasn't Myers he would have yanked off his mask and Laurie would've known that's not Michael.
This film should have been a prequel before that took place before H20
Take off the opening and it would work. Never thought of that
I seen this at the movies for my birthday. If they had Michael hunted laurie in the crazy house as a whole movie could had been a lot better with a definitely final battle between the two.
I’m gotta get so much shit, but Halloween resurrection is my Halloween movie guilty pleasure
Wait what
Same
Same for me. Terrible movie but enjoyable
I love the kills especially the tripod kill the most. My favorite thing about this film however is the cinematography, in my opinion there's no denying that fact. Great video once again...loving the little skits at the beginning.
Am I the only one who mostly likes the first 10 minutes besides the plot twist and the death of Laurie Strode, but the whole thing about jamie in the mental asylum and that weird dude is cool
I love the passion you have for horror and that you can always find positives even if you hate a movie. I have never seen this and most likely never will haha but I loved the review :)
that he did. moustapha akkad and his daughter died in late 2005.
Rip
I know Micheal walked away from Busta rhymes but in Halloween 2 Micheal bumped into a kid with a boom box in a dark deserted parking lot and Micheal walked away from him and in h2o Micheal stole the women's purse in a bathroom in the middle of nowhere and walked away with out slaughtering her or her daughter so I can't say that was unnatural for Michael to walkaway from busta
Keep in mind Michael never messed with kids. So there is that. But I see your point.
He did in Halloween 2018. He killed a boy.
People hated Halloween 3 and wanted Myers back...yeah...only to get his ass kicked by Busta Rhymes. What's next? Eminem chasing Freddy Kruger with his Shady Karate Moves while the song Go to Sleep plays? Lil Wayne running around the Overlook Hotel?
Jw Nj Halloween Resurrection is not Halloween 4.
Yeah I know, but because they wanted the same thing over and over again, we finally reached to this point.
Hey Cody, did you record your intro animations using After Effects?
I hope people don't kill me for this. Halloween 3 is my favorite Halloween movie
This might change come Friday, but it's my favorite sequel of the series.
Oh it's definitely in my top 3.
Better hurry up you don't wanna miss the big giveaway
Don't worry Quan Chi, its one of my favorites even though the silver shamrock commercial is annoying.

I don't like this movie for the most part, but one thing I will say about this movie, this Michael is hands down the scariest looking Michael. He always looks pissed off in this movie and it's scary as fuck, he's also a really effective killer.
Your right bro his eyes looks so inhuman too.
I've seen worse movies ......not mentioning them by name
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man anime right
I thought the scene with Laurie Strode on top the roof confronting Michael Myers was a post-ending credits.
“Trick Or Treat!..Martha Falker.”
25:25 - Despite your genuine criticisms of Resurrection, I still liked it better than 6 and Rob Zombie's 2. The latter two are beyond insulting, but at the very least Busta Rhymes doing taekwondo was something I could be entertained by in that "so bad it's good" way.
Omg the dog Jason pissing on Freddy is better than this!! Haha that says it all brother!!
This one ain't near as bad as what everyone else makes it out to be lol, but.. I hated the fact they built the house on sound stage and in the scene where Myers gets kung-fu kicked out a window and is strangled by the camera cord for a split second if you look up you can clearly see the roof of the warehouse they had the Myers house in ugh.. Just ruined the illusion of it being in a real neighborhood for me
SAVINI JASON Agreed.
The one has my favorite score. Literally if they put the H6 Michael with this score and a back-to-basics style plot, they’d have the perfect Halloween movie 👌🏾
The main theme is ok, the rest is generic dog shit that doesn't fit in a halloween movie.
whizzingrizzly - True. This movie is pretty cringe-worthy. And our final girl’s acting is horrendous.
I LOVE YOUR T SHIRT 😇🙏🎊🎉🎃
The plot for the movie makes no sense. The beginning absolutely makes zero sense. How can the paramedic survive a car crash down a mountain with a car smashing his body against the tree and survive? This was a super natural occurrence only someone like Michael could survive of at all. The movie shouldn’t have been made.
@@SomethingThatSCREAMS Way better than H20's soundtrack (Which is horrible imo).
I have a soft spot for Jason Takes Manhattan.
The Ny Stuff is not that bad
It was good honestly till new York I like the claustrophobic boat setting
Me 2
Jason angrily kicking Steroes and shoving New Yorkers aside makes it worth it
Ryan Merriman is my favorite part of the movie as well for the same reason. Lol
Gotta love it
And then it’s Busta Rhymes who was already a walking cartoon character. It’s like a live action Yosemite Sam with complete sincerity against Kratos, and Kratos just suddenly apologizes in a PePe Lepew accent mixed with James Bond.
Anyone that thinks this is the worst movie ever made has seen very few movies.
Just finished the video, I agree, aside from making Myers a joke, this film occupies the "So Bad It Is Good" territory.
I'm okay with Halloween: Resurrection because some parts of it are so silly that I just find it hilarious. The part where Busta Rhymes is dressed UP like Michael Myers and doesn't realize who he is talking to is one of those parts. Jason Voorhees would've done a Mortal Kombat X Fatality on Busta for that crap. But not only does Busta live through all that talking he's actually poking Michael Myers in the head, he tells Michael to turn around and leave and Michael actually does it (???). I was watching that part like "Wait/what, he let him live?" See that was some funny shite. I mostly just find this film funny.
“Trick or treat...Mother Fucker!” Haha I love that scene
Halloween: Resurrection, the movie where Michael Myers fights Freddy...too bad it's not the Freddy we all wanted him to fight.
I loved watching Busta Rhymes try to act, but I already knew it was a trainwreck. To me he's the most entertaining aspect of this movie. Cause he's so bad it's astonishing.
I still profess that Rob Zombie's Halloween II is the worst of the series. It's such a shit Halloween film, and should've been called something else.
Beware the white horse
Like Fant4stic
@Erich Medrow which is the biggest sin a film can do, bore the shit out of me.
I prefer rob zombie’s H2 over most of the sequels. Watching that movie when I was younger actually scared me. When I watched the other sequels I was bored and didn’t feel the horror in the franchise after the first two. I know I’m an unpopular opinion but I still stick with it to this day. Aside from the first two and Halloween 4, this is next on my list of favorite Halloween movies
Hillbilly Horrors II is what it should have been called. I hated that pretentious "white horse symbolises Michael's rage" shit.
While watching this, I thought of a few idea that they COULD'VE used instead of this garbage.
1.) Don't make another one at all. (Well... H20 made a $55 million dollars so uhh... that's not gonna happen.)
2.) I know it didn't happen but try the no Michael Myers idea again: There's so many original ideas they could've done with something horrifying happening on the Halloween season and could've made a great avenue for smaller unknown directions to make horror movies that would be seen by more people than it most likely would have otherwise. I know they originally wanted to for this movie's early development so why tf didn't they do it?
3.) Laurie is enjoying her retirement after finally stopping Michael Myers like maybe she wrote a book, and has a new rich boyfriend. (Like her character in Freaky Friday.) But back in Haddonfield, murders start up once again and the town's teens seek out Mrs. Strode to come back to her hometown to help. Laurie, now taking a Loomis-like role must help them stop the killer who might be Michael or might just be a copycat who's been overly obsessed with Michael for years. (Kind of like the killer obsessed patient in this movie's opening or a Riddler-type nerd.)
4.) Maybe wipe everything completely for a new start and establish a fully new cast of characters who are attacked by a new killer who's built up as Michael throughout the film only to subvert your expectations in the final act.
5.) Maybe after killing Michael, Laurie begins to have a mental breakdown with psychotic thoughts like if Michael successfully broke her. And once Halloween rolls around again, she KILLS someone. Maybe her son or some trick-or-treater who happened to come to her house at the wrong time. She gets locked up in a mental asylum and murders of patients begin there as well AND it raises the question: Is Michael alive, or has Laurie gone full-blown insane because of her fucked-up life? It could be a great character study of what happens to the mind after 20 plus years of torment as a survivor that's so tragic and more psychological instead of blood-soaked slashing that could also make Michael scary in a new and modern way. (So yeah, basically a more thought out, better made and white horseless version of Rob Zombie's H2.)
I actually think the mask is one of the better ones
The sculpt on the mask looks good but the paint job ruins it.
Eh
i don’t like the eyebrows and the fact u can see his eyes
@@cgimichaelmyers2806 agreed it's basically a great sculpt but they ruined it with too much definitions and showing his eyes ..
Not really, the makup makes Michael look like a queer.
I see why you have 18K subscribers and climbing my friend....
your reviews are great!
People asked for Michael vs Freddy and they got *THIS!*
I'm almost positive the 'so-bad-its-good' thing is intentional. It does actually work. This movie is funny as fuck. The contrast with Jason Takes Manhattan is apt. Resurrection is at least really entertaining.
23:25 It was much better line delivery.
One of the reasons I love your channel is exactly because you’re not afraid of making some “controversial” choices when it comes to rankings. If everyone had the same opinions, the UA-cam horror community would be boring as shit.
This movie is pretty damn awful, but I would lie if I said that I don’t find it just slightly entertaining. Busta Rhymes, stupid as he was, kinda cracked me up. I feel about it but he did
Yes maam gotta be true to my opinion...even if in all alone on it.
Did you just say final destination??! Cody please review the Final Destination franchise...
I'm sorry but the Liu Kang sounds Freddy makes when facing Michael makes me laugh every time 😭😭😅
As always, I pretty much agree with every point however... I kind of like the opening sequence... Maybe I'm crazy but I think it was shot well, it's very creepy and for an opening kill it's not half bad. It's a shame it does sort of shit on the face of the H2O ending I agree but they were never going to end the franchise like that and I think that was inevitable they were going to bring Michael back and when they did, he'd go right back to stalking Laurie. No way would he just forget about her and move on to killing someone else. Therefore, in order to bring hi, back they had to bring Laurie back and JLC at that point actually asked to be killed off if I recall. I just think the opening is actually the only thing I like about this movie.
From what I've researched, the only way JLC would do this movie is if she did get killed off. Understandably, she was OVER the Halloween series. So it was an agreement between her and the studio that had her killed off. With that said, they should have thought it through more and just said, "Nah, we won't have her in it at all." Killing her off was a horrible decision. The movie went downhill for me from that moment on.....
@@aaronbeauchamp3312 or...have the whole film be in the Asylum building up to Michael killing her, make her the final kill. Would also help if they didn't give her the idiot ball right beforehand, because as many have said even if the dude chasing her wasn't Michael he still chased her with intent to kill her why should she need to check its definitely Michael 🤦♀️
Err, uhhm...the Halloween franchise doesn't have a titular killer. That would require the killer to be named "Halloween," not "Michael Myers."
I always wondered why the paramedic wouldn't just pull the mask off. You wake up, injured, in a strange place, you can't talk, and there's a rubber mask on your face. First thing you do is pull that thing off.
Jason takes manhattan bad? Your saying that movie is worse than the final Friday? I disagree, but I respect your opinion.
Definitely...I enjoy JGTH for how batshit nuts it is. Not a good movie but fun
Agree with Cody. Rewatch both and you’ll see how awful JTM was, especially the ending. At least with JGTH, we got the sought after plug for Freddy v Jason.
They're both bad but Takes Manhattan is worse.
I think Jason takes Manhattan is much better than Jason goes to hell
I think when Freddy was yelling at Michael dressed as him it freaked him out.
I did my own ranking of the Halloween franchise after watching yours and I put resurrection ahead of Rob Zombies first Halloween
I agree with your review! Cringeworthy! But another thought that always crosses my mind is whatever happened to Josh Hartnet’s character??? He’s still apart of the bloodline. There was no closure for his character after H20... a better follow up to H20 would’ve been Michael pursuing John since it’s technically his nephew.
1:21 damn never thought of it that way. Good ol Mikey just wanted to enjoy retirement and these damn millennials just had to disturb him.
Just finished watching this movie for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Busta Rhymes is so funny in it it's hard not to be entertained. Had the story gone deeper on exploring Michael's past combined with better acting it could've been a slam dunk. I just think the plot was too surface level for it to have any long lasting impression on the Halloween universe.
I love how people call me not a true fan because I loved this movie. Still not my favourite though. Some parts were crap but unlike i most people, I think it's way better than h20. But I'm loving the reviews so far! I came home from a shit day of school and saw this on my feed, thank you!!
I consider myself a true fan of Halloween and I hate this movie but for someone to say that you are not a true fan because you like this movie is ridiculous.... I like H5 so I guess I'm not a true fan either hahahaha jk
The beginning would been better if the ending of H2O would have just been a dream.
Goddamn cody you getting these vids out quick asf😂
Resurrection is such a guilty pleasure for me.
Saaaame
@yo yo nah, it’s not a guilty pleasure. It’s a very good movie. My 2nd favorite Halloween movie after Halloween 4
@yo yo are you being sarcastic?
This movie is nostalgic to me. I love this movie!
I'll pray for u
I agree. Its nostalgic for me. But still a bad movie. So bad its good.
@@hornmoviereviews8739 no it’s very good. My 2nd favorite Halloween movie
@@gvidovaldmanis6377 2nd? How
@@quentinross2104 my favorite movie of the franchise- H20.
No one seems to mention the house, in curse it was renovated and lived in yet in resurrection it's been abandoned since the 60s. Also Michael was institutionalised so couldn't have been there all those years, maybe the last 3.
Gotta Highly disagree about the Mask!. I love the Mask in this Movie
He did like the mask with the lightning when not showing his eyes and makeup ...
I love Resurrection. Top five of the series in my opinion
Delusional AF.
Great review Cody!!! I gotta agree with you about this movie it, would be at or around the bottom of my list.I will say i always liked the shot of Laurie falling to her death and the death of the kid from American Pie was pretty cool but, overall this was just one big wasted opportunity. ..
Michael also super glued the mask to the paramedic's head. Movie was total shit!
All agree to erase this film from the H20 timeline?
I love this guy doesn’t take others opinions and uses what he feels about the movie
Saw this in the theatre back in 2002... and i fell asleep during it..... it was rough......Luckily enough Michael Myers survived and is still around thankfully..... (Halloween 2018 and Halloween Kills/Ends) and Busta Where are you these days..... huh? Just sayin’ 😬😝
Not as bad as Halloween 2 2009 that movie was garbage ....Halloween Resurrection is a guilty pleasure
Look forward to these reviews every Cody! Absolutely killing it man! :)
Thank you
when your review thumbnail is better than the actual film you’re reviewing 😂😂👏
Halloween Resurrection is not a very good movie but I can find guilty pleasure enjoyment of it.
That paramedics name was Michael. He was like wait how the fuck do you know my name!? Boom head cut off!
And again, Dick Warlock is the best Myers.
Opinion.
@Tristan Matheny Wrong. The OG Michael Myers Nick Castle will always be the Best Michael Myers.
He’s really not. I’d honestly say Tyler Mane or even Wilbur did the part better.
@@negativebones1887 No, no. Nick Castle is the best and it isn't even close. The next best would Mane and after that they suckkkkkk.
Really enjoying your Halloween reviews Cody. I'm not a huge Halloween guy, but I've always enjoyed the journey. You and I are in agreement about Season of the Witch - actually a terrifying movie. Scarier than a slasher.
This is The Room of the Halloween series. It's so misguided and dumb it's hilarious. Busta Rhymes' scenes with Michael have me dying.
Finding the good in the bad is such an underrated skill. You do this well sir. That so bad it’s good comment is so accurate.
