Critics Consensus

Halloween Kills should satisfy fans in search of brute slasher thrills, but in terms of advancing the franchise, it's a bit less than the sum of its bloody parts.

Audience Consensus

Halloween Kills doesn't do much to move the Michael Myers saga forward, but viewers looking for hardcore horror violence won't be disappointed.

While the plot is not as great as 2018 and does not touch the original, Kills is very entertaining and delivers to its name. It also shows how The Shape affects people outside of the Strode family which was great to see and it sets up an exciting confrontation in Ends between Laurie and The Shape.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Halfway decent follow up to a great horror reboot. So much stalling and failed drama makes it a bore many times. Lack of humor takes a toll.

Decent. It was way overhyped and one of those movies that you wait until it hits a streaming platform to watch.

Not exactly a great follow-up to 2018. Michael Myers is a force unleashed, showcasing carnage as the title promises. However that's it. Hard to root for characters when they consistently do bonehead decisions.

Austin Chronicle

As a sequel to the deliciously absurd 2018 resurrection, it's a ponderous bore, far-too-intermittently broken up by spurts of the franchise's signature gore.

Halloween Kills is an ugly, messy film. It's a little depressing to learn that yet another sequel is supposedly in the works.

Rated: 2/5

Never was there a film truer to its name. They’re sliced up with kitchen knives, hollowed out with a fluorescent strip light, bisected with a chain saw and impaled on banisters. The body count is phenomenal. We love this stuff. You know we do.

Halloween Kills may fall flat in its commentary, but it excels in its pure slasher carnage. This is the most brutal we have ever seen Michael Myers.
