This was actually a pretty good - but not perfect - sequel to the original Halloween movies. The Good: production values, sound, camera work was quite decent. The Mediocre: the acting. If I were to be told they actors were carved out of wood and animated, I would believe it. Michael's flailing with a knife made me cringe a bit. Not to say the actors terrible - they weren't. But material for the Academy Award they were not. The Bad: there really wasn't anything. I found the movie on the whole enjoyable, scary, and a pretty good entry into the movie series. Watch it and enjoy the chills!
