Critics Consensus

The only thing this tired slasher flick may resurrect is nostalgia for when the genre was still fresh and scary.

Stay away unless you like kitschy early internet nostalgia and lots of blurry found-footage trickery.

[Seems] even more uselessly redundant and shamelessly money-grubbing than most third-rate horror sequels.

While the production values here are more cool than crappy, there's nothing really new about Resurrection.

Rated: 2/5

Here’s another entry that can be completely wiped from existence, and everybody would be better off.

The Cinematic Reel

Halloween: Resurrection is an embarrassment to a franchise that I hold near and dear to my heart. A franchise that has entertained viewers for the past 40 years and its fans deserved more than this film.

Rated: .5/4

This movie is an insult to fans and the franchise. Myers feels artificially inserted into a generic 2000's slasher and he is treated as a joke rather than the face of the series. And we won't talk about the baffling treatment of Laurie Strode.

Rated: 1.5/5

This movie was just stupid and should have never been made. The only person who made this movie even remotely better is Busta Rhymes. At the beginning, we see Laurie Strode take her last breath as Michael finally kills her. The whole premise of this movie was just terrible and I can't believe this is what they wanted to build off from H20. Casting for this movie was decent and at times it was really boring. I would say that this is one of the worst movies in the Halloween franchise and I wish they never made this movie. Overall, this movie went downhill from the very beginning and it was just poorly made.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

1/4 Getting rid of one the two main characters at the beginning was brave but it didn't work at all.

This series has like four entries in the worst movie ever made category. This one takes the crown.

There are few movies that I despise on a level that I wish I could wipe them from existence... and Halloween Resurrection is one of them. From the ridiculous way they bring Myers back to how Laurie Strode is so disrespectfully thrown away to all the Busta Ryhmes nonsense makes what would be a generic 2000s slasher one of my least favourite movies in history.
