Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)

Steve Miner directs Jamie Lee Curtis, Michelle Williams and Josh Hartnett in this legacy sequel slasher where Michael Myers stalks Laurie Strode through a boarding school.

Notable more as a post-Scream artefact than a Halloween sequel. I have an over inflated affection for this one. Almost unjustifiable. But there we are… H20 is short and slick, certainly doesn’t outstay its welcome despite nothing at all happening in the middle act. There aren’t even enough kills but Curtis, Williams and LL Cool J bring a smile to the face and it always looks pretty. Killer filler.
