Description:
For pulse-pounding suspense and relentless thrills, nothing can match HALLOWEEN: THE CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS -- one of the most frightening chapters in the chilling HALLOWEEN series! In a single horrifying night, Michael Myers' masked reign of terror changed Halloween forever! Now, six years after he was presumed dead in a fire, Myers has returned to kill again -- and this time there's no escape! As the homicidal fury builds to a spine-tingling cliimax, the long-hidden secrets of the screen's most maniacal murderer are revealed ... with shocking results! Starring a thrilling cast including legendary Donald Pleasence (HALLOWEEN, THE ADVOCATE) and Paul Rudd (THE CIDER HOUSE RULES, CLUELESS).
Amazon.com:
The series premise continues to stretch so thin it could dissipate. This time, Michael Myers chases his unfortunate niece around, then goes after a family who happen to be living in his former home. This is slasher-ism at its most cynical, and a thoroughly unpleasant, unimaginative, and unredeeming movie. Donald Pleasence, the one holdover from the original film, looks like he'd rather be anywhere than in this thing. --Tom Keogh

Halloween-The Curse of Michael Myers is the sixth movie in the "Halloween" franchise.
It begins with Sam Loomis's audio voice over then a woman telling a group of children by the campfire about the traditions of Halloween.
Then, Michael Myers (George P. Wilbur), kills Jamie Lloyd, his niece and gives the baby over to the mysterious Thorn cult for sacrifice headed by Dr. Wynn, a collegue of Loomis's....
Meanwhile, Tommy Doyle, (Paul Rudd), is now grown up and wants to end Myers' decades of horror in the town of Haddonfield, Illinois...
With the help of Loomis, (Donald Pleasance), in his last movie role, they go visit the Strode family, and try and stop Myers killing the rest of the his family during Halloween.
The performances are good and director Joe Chappelle (Dean Koontz's Phantoms), does a great job.
Writer Daniel Farrands's script is fresh and different from the previous Halloween movies.
Paul Rudd, Marianne Hagen (as Kara Strode), give fine support as they try to deal with stopping The Shape....
"Halloween-The Curse of Michael Myers", made in 1995, is a fine entry to the long, running horror franchise, I give it four stars.
Note: There is a so-called "Producer's Cut" of the movie, and maybe it's going to be released on DVD.
It goes back to 1989 at the end of "Halloween 5", so that the movie makes more sense.

I am a big fan of horror movies, although this wasn't one of the best, it is still good for watching.

4 WAS BAD...
5 WAS TERRIBLE...
but THIS?!
This is on a whole new scale of wrong...
The true Halloween was a story about Micheal killing people, BUT mainly after Jaimie Lee Curtis...
The true Halloween movies star Jaimie Lee...(1, 2, H20, Resurrection)
The True Halloween movies don't have a "dark satanic cult" in them...(i mean...and gang of evil druids...really people?)
The True Halloween movies don't have some insane, half mute, little girl who grows up and gets raped by Micheal Myers so that he can have a child to sacrifice to said "satanic cult"...
and don't even get me started on the "Man in Black" stuff...
It was a monotonous conclusion to a "trilogy" of "sub-plot" films that should have never entered the world or Micheal Myers and his reign of terror on Halloween...
Long live John Carpenters' original vision of true terror and evil!

HAPPY THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY, MICHAEL MYERS!!!
Parts four, five, and six of the "Halloween" series are more enjoyable when watched together as a trilogy. As I said in my reviews of parts four and five, I pretend that all three occur in the bizarre and mysterious world of parallel time. (This would account for Laurie Strode's death and her daughter Jamie Lloyd.) Of the three films, part six is the best.
At the beginning of "Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers," the viewer learns that six years have passed since the mysterious stranger massacred about a dozen police officers before blowing up the station. Jamie and Michael have disappeared and are presumed dead. Not true. They are living in a secret underground maze of chambers beneath an industrial complex. A Druid cult has been holding Jamie captive. She is approximately fifteen and is giving birth. With the help of a nurse, she escapes with the baby before they can sacrifice it. Michael manages to catch Jamie and kill her but not before she hides the baby. A paranoid, mentally disturbed Tommy Doyle (the little boy that Laurie Strode was babysitting on that fateful Halloween of 1978) manages to find the baby. He, along with Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasance), struggles to keep the baby out of the hands of the Druids. Meanwhile, relatives of Laurie have moved into the old Myers house and Michael begins slaughtering them one by one.
