Query: Not nearly as suspenseful as the original.

I have always believed that the Halloween series should have been left at the first one, and perhaps H20 as a commemorative. This is Jamie Lee Curtis' last role before H20 (17 years after this movie). This movie relies more on really nasty murders (not just with Michaels knife) as opposed to suspense, and spine tingling terror of the first movie. I believe horror movies that go on suspense far outweight those that have to show graphically intense needles in eyes, people boiling to death, etc. These things can be done, but Halloween 1 did it with class. There is not the same class here. I believe it was going against the Jason movies at this time and of course we know those are absolutely nothing but plotless gore flicks. I give it two stars SOLELY for the fact they continue the plot by introducing the fact Laurie Strobe is in fact, Michaels sister.
