Halloween H20
(Dimension)
This 20th-anniversary issue is an efficient exercise, with
Jamie Lee Curtis back as Laurie Strode, along with the archetypal victim of
violence, her Psycho mother, Janet Leigh, in a teasing but substanceless
cameo. Laurie now realizes what we knew all along: Michael Meyers is back.
Unfortunately, the film's chief dynamic lies in who does or doesn't get it.
As for what evil lurks behind that death-white mask, maybe in another 20 years
we'll actually find out.
