Movie Review | Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (Miner, 1998)

Tries to do the whole horror movie trauma deal more than a decade before it became the norm in the genre. So it isn’t hard to see why Jamie Lee Curtis was persuaded to come back for this one, even if it makes what happens to her in the next one that much funnier. Nice to see Janet Leigh, but the real MVP is LL Cool J as a security guard who runs his attempts at erotic fiction by his unimpressed girlfriend. By the end, he has an epiphany and decides to write a romantic thriller. We the moviegoing public wish him the greatest success, and hope he returns once again to the screen in quirky supporting roles like this one.

This really needed somebody more distinctive than Steve Miner in the director’s chair. There’s some decently graphic violence but not a whole lot of verve, and I don’t think ‘90s studio slickness generally benefits slashers. And while I’m not usually too fussy about the performances of masked killers in these movies, I found the guy here pretty unimposing. That being said, it is a small miracle that this is at least competent piece of work, considering the cult bullshit and Dangertainment this entry is sandwiched between. (For the record, I have a soft spot for Resurrection, albeit entirely for Busta Rhymes, who so eloquently explained that Michael Myers is not a soundbite, spinoff, tie-in, some kind of a celebrity scandal but a killer shark in baggy-ass overalls who gets his kicks off of killing everything and everyone he comes across, that’s all.) So maybe I shouldn’t be complaining.

In defence of Halloween: Resurrection

Marred by production issues and a slew of rewrites and reshoots, 2002’s Halloween: Resurrection never stood a chance. Widely derided as yet another subpar addition to a franchise that failed to capture the essence of John Carpenter’s genre-defining 1978 slasher, Rick Rosenthal’s film is best remembered for its clunky dialogue, laughably pitting Busta Rhymes against the indomitable Michael Myers, and an anticlimactic ending to Laurie Strode’s initial arc. Yet despite its flaws though, Resurrection is arguably the most innovative film in the entire series.

A lot of credit must go to screenwriter Larry Brand, whose ambitious, somewhat prophetic vision tapped into the public’s emerging obsession with reality television. At the time, shows like Big Brother, The Real World and The Osbournes were all the rage, heralding a new era of mass media consumption. Fuelled by the internet’s increasing accessibility, we were entering a true digital age, evidenced by our subsequent seamless transition into a world of smartphones, social media and streaming platforms.

With executive producer Moustapha Akkad’s insistence that Myers remain alive for future sequels despite his decapitation in 1998’s Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, Brand developed a unique premise inspired by Orson Welles’ 1938 radio broadcast of HG Wells’ ‘War of the Worlds’. Whereas Welles managed to convince his listeners that aliens were invading Earth, Brand sought to reverse that concept by staging a live webcast from inside Myers’ childhood home in Haddonfield, with viewers at home believing that the ensuing carnage was all part of the show. Titled Halloween: MichaelMyers.com during pre-production, Resurrection was meant to signal a rebirth for the franchise, with Myers stabbing his way through standalone storylines.

Resurrection’s unfamiliarity proved to be its undoing. As the first Myers-based Halloween film not to feature Jamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode or Donald Pleasance’s Dr Loomis as central protagonists, fans denounced it as soon as they saw the former meet her demise early on at the hands of The Shape, retconned back from the dead. The ill-advised decision to kill off horror cinema’s quintessential Final Girl capped off an otherwise impressive opening 15 minutes, which takes place inside the sanitarium where Laurie was committed following H20’s conclusion.

Laurie’s faking catatonia inside a creepy asylum and the subsequent chase down its dimly lit corridors were atmospheric homages to 1981’s Halloween II, another sequel directed by Rosenthal. It also showcased a calculating Myers retaining the stealth and cunning barely seen since the first two Halloween films, emerging victorious over his estranged sister before handing his blood-soaked blade to a patient with an encyclopedic knowledge of mass murderers, then disappearing into the shadows like only he can.

Brand’s novel idea doesn’t come into play until the story shifts back to Haddonfield, where we’re introduced to a bunch of fame-hungry university students selected to take part in a reality web series called ‘Dangertainment’. As instructed by the show’s hosts, played by Tyra Banks and a hilariously hammy Busta Rhymes, the group have to spend Halloween night inside Myers’ childhood home with the purpose of attempting to unravel his murderous motives. The six contestants, each of them sporting headcams and laden with quirks xeroxed from the teen slasher renaissance of the late ’90s, are tedious murder fodder.

Even Sara, the film’s Final Girl, serves as a regrettably dull counterpart to the iconic Laurie, with her only true confidant being an online pen pal named Deckard who tunes into the broadcast at a party later that evening. Once inside the Myers house, they run into fake evidence, rigged props, and Rhymes’ Freddie dressed up as Michael, before realising to their horror that they are actually locked in with The Shape himself. Cue mass slaughter via pixelated web streaming. In the end, Sara and Freddie, who stay one step ahead of their homicidal host thanks to Deckard tracking The Shape’s movements on webcams and texting them his whereabouts, manage to defeat Michael by frying him alive with stray electrical wiring.

Despite Resurrection’s lopsided execution, Brand’s screenplay successfully satirises the public’s obsession with celebrity, serial killers, and the exploitation of tragedy. Also interwoven is the flawed idea that someone like Michael Myers can be decoded, given that the hapless webcasters’ primary goal is to figure out what led Myers to kill when the truth is that he has no motive. Ironically, this brings it more in-line with the 1978 original than most other Halloween films.

If anything, Resurrection’s premise is a clever metaphor for the entire filmic experience. The contestants are the actors, the Dangertainment staff are the crew, Deckard and his fellow partygoers are the audience, and the asylum patient from the beginning represents the hardcore horror aficionado who spews facts and collects masks. Even Freddie, whose kung fu moves immortalised him as the Halloween franchise’s Jar Jar Binks, channels Hollywood’s need for greed, proclaiming at one point that “America just wants a little razzle dazzle, and us being the ones to give it to ’em, I don’t see nothin’ wrong with that”.

With TikTok, Twitch, and true crime podcasts and docuseries now dominating the media landscape, Resurrection’s underlying message may resonate with a modern, tech-savvy audience. It’s certainly apropos for a generation who have found fame in cyberspace. It may not be the best Halloween sequel, but it deserves some kudos for foreshadowing the rise of digital broadcasting at a time when ‘unscripted’ content was in the ascendancy. Irrespective of your own tastes, wouldn’t you tune in to see a group of insufferable influencers locked inside “the birthplace of evil”?

It sounds unkind. I do try to play nice with it in places because I know there are fans. 

But my God, this was just movie by committee. Everything was made to appeal to the widest possible audience, more than almost any horror sequel I’ve ever seen.
