I hear a lot people say they really didn’t like H20 and was just curious too know what you DIDN’T like about it?
my only issue is the masks, i like the one that you see the most but the other 3 i don’t like especially the cgi mask
OMG yeah, CGI mask was ‘‘STUPID’’ why would they even do that is what ponders me!!! LMAO
Mask not being consistant, Scream style score, and the fact Michael’s eye’s are seen too often.
Over all I do enjoy the film,but a few tweaks and it could have been a bit more special I think. I also think it could have been a bit harder edged, seemed a bit too PG-13.
The biggest issue for me is how similar it is to scream. I love scream, it’s one of my favorite horror films, but it should have nothing to do with a Halloween film in my opinion.
Like others have said it had too much of a scream style teen slasher vibe to it and I hated that we could see Michael’s eyes so much
That Chris Durand believes playing Michael Myers has anything to do with depth. When he talks about playing Michael Myers, he mentions that he wanted the audience to see his eyes because it added an element to the character and enabled him to play the part…
I just scratch my head at that because I’m over here like “bitch, put the ducking mask on and stalk people”.

Definitely Busta and Tyra. How do you put them in a Halloween movie!? And the stupid dangertainment thing?! What!! So bad!

Has to be the film in general, complete predictability
-Did not feel like a Halloween film at all. The most Halloween part was the opening with Nurse Marion and Joseph Gordon Levitt.
-Felt more along the lines of those female empowerment woman gets back at tormentor movies that Lifetime used to show (was essentially forced to watch them when my mom had control of the tv growing up, don’t judge) or Kiss the Girls.
-Michael was less The Shape/boogeyman character from the original film (as well as previous sequels) and more of a representative of Laurie’s troubled past she needs to overcome; all things in the film go through Laurie. It was produced by JLC as a showcase piece for herself, and it shows.- The actual Halloween holiday aspect was thrown to the side; aside from the opening it was just a date whereupon Laurie was initially attacked, and not really about the holiday in and of itself.
-The score was orchestral and bombastic.
-The look of the film was too routine, not really spooky enough like 1-6. It’s the most drab looking of the entire series. Not that the camerawork was bad, just the lighting, set design and decoration, and overall look wasn’t a mood enhancer. Looked more like a thriller than a horror film.
-The ending was terrible (imo). Took away the entire basis for the original and the series itself. The Shape is an unkillable emotionless force, and the ending of the original was true to the horror label as it left you with a lingering creepy feeling as the killer was still out there and could be anywhere/everywhere. Ending H:20 by downplaying The Shape and making him/it more human and a stoppable force, seemingly even showing emotion, and ending on a moment of heroic triumph, is the exact opposite to the ending of the original. It’d be like ending a The Usual Suspects remake on Chazz Palmenteri’s character figuring out who Keyser Soze is while he’s in the room, saying he was playing along with Soze but he already figured him out (thus outsmarting him), and then cuffing him right then and there.
-No Dr. Loomis or Dr. Loomis analogue.
-While other sequels had series sins in terms of moments (some with more plentiful moments than others), H:20’s was the entire tone of the film itself.
It wasn’t a poorly made film, just in my opinion was a poorly made Halloween film. Take out the Halloween series aspects/references, and replace them, but leave all else intact and I’d enjoy it; as a Halloween film though I cannot.
TBH, I only like the start of the movie with Nurse Marion and Joseph Gordon Levitt… After that it felt like a Scream / I Know What You Did Last Summer style movie. I’m not a big fan of H20.
Just seemed like a blatant attempt to cash in on scream. Crappy mask, Crappy story. Nothing scary about it. Very dated in a way I and II are not.
Just isn’t very original imo.
It just didn’t feel like the same michael myers from the first 2 films which H20 is meant to be a sequel to
A lot of good points made guys, thank you 
Keep them coming lol!
Somewhere along the lines, years and years ago I read that the Original H20 Script was to have Tommy Doyle dress as/be Michael Myers and go after Laurie Strode. I don’t know how much of that is true…but that’s what I read! Would of kinda been like a Jason Voorhees deal in Part 5!!!
H20 Still better than H8 lol
It feels like it tries too hard to modernize Halloween. I like Jamie Lee Curtis back, but that’s about it. I hate that it takes Michael out of Illinois and into SoCal. I just can’t get behind the setting of Michael terrorizing a prep school in California. Like it said, it feels like they tried to modernize Halloween into something it’s not to garner the “Scream” crowd. Michael’s thing has always been knocking off babysitters and family, and anybody who gets in the way of those ends. Michael vs 90210 felt wrong to me.
The mask is okay, the SWS version is obviously the best (just as the SWS make up and effects for Jason in Friday the 13th Part III is arguably the most classic), the KNB mask is meh, I can see why the studio reshot the scenes it was in. Though, the only one they didn’t they had go use a CGI mask which was absolutely AWFUL. The music is so so. The music definitely suffers from the lack of Carpenters themes. Chris Durand, who plays Michael is one of the best parts of the movie. His performance as the Shape is one of the best since Nick Castle and Dick Warklock.
h20 is the 2nd best halloween movie idk what you ppl re talking about. h20 was very similar to the original. yes it had its issues with the mask and soundtrack but i still enjoyed it. the stan wiston mask was arguably the best mask he ever had.h1 mask is still the best but you can argue the h20 mask being the best mask he had.
I have to admit when I saw this in the theater I loved it. It definitely has not held up well over the years though. The best part is that Jamie Lee Curtis returned. I didnt like that its not in Haddonfield and it doesn’t have that Fall atmosphere. I also didnt care for the mask.
1-No Dr. Loomis.
2-Felt like one of the modern slashers that followed Halloween rather than a Halloween movie.
3-Production was a little messy. Couldn’t agree on a mask/went for a “standard” Hollywood score.
4-Pedictable
Overall didn’t cut the mustard for me. Lots of hype that didn’t deliver.
The KNB Mask. Very un-Myers like.
The CGI mask. Seriously, was it that difficult just to reshoot the scene?
The Score. John Ottman’s original score was great, especially the main titles. But replacing it with Beltrami’s Scream Score was a stupid move.
Scares(lack there of) one of the truly great aspects of the original was how it built up the tension to unbearable levels before the pay off with the scares. This movie completely lacked any tension or suspense. Aside from the opening scene, which had that "Halloween " feel.
Other than that, H20 was a decent instalment and better than the utter drivel of Revenge and Curse. Resurrection can go feck itself 
H20 is far from the second best, if there really had to be a real sequel that was different, it has to be Part 6 the Producers cut, but in terms of H20, Chris Durand really should have done better cause he is too good for the film
