I'd planned on this tonight. I thought about watching it last week but never did.

I'm looking forward to finally seeing the Producer's Cut. Especially the infamous runestone scene. I was crying with laughter when a friend described it to me.

What do you think is the worst of the Halloweens? I'm going with Resurrection. That film left me seething with rage.

Yes Resurrection certainly. Here's how i'd rank them. There's quite a gap in quality after part 4. No point mentioning 3 as it's a stand alone film and nothing to do with the others.

Halloween
Halloween II
Halloween H20
Halloween 4
Halloween 5
Halloween 6
Halloween Resurrection

I'm guessing that I will have the same opinion as soon as I'm through them.

I forgot to mention one more great moment in H4 - Michael sitting in the chair as Kathleen Kinmont is bring the coffee. That was a nice twist.

Ellie Cornell makes for a likable lead in my opinion.

She is. Plus, her character is rather strong too. The way she moves into the Ellen Ripley role is rather convincing.

Hmm... you are forcing me to revisit my opinion on Halloween 4.

Haha! I am? It was you who gave the long list of plus points when you reviewed it.

Yes, but the list is getting longer. I think the pros are outweighing the cons now.

So, cheers.
