Every Halloween Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

10. Halloween: Resurrection

2002's eighth entry may have brought back two series veterans in Jamie Lee Curtis and Rick Rosenthal (director of 1981's Halloween II), but it's almost certainly the dumbest Halloween movie, and - despite being only 15 years old at the time of writing - it's arguably aged worse than any other film in the series.

Everything feels wrong from the get-go, with a silly, unconvincing explanation as to how Michael Myers survived the finale of previous film Halloween H20, then a brief return for heroine Laurie Strode - only for her to finally be killed off. Curtis, who'd spent years shaking off her 'scream queen' label, was reportedly under contractual obligation to appear in Resurrection, and only agreed to do so on the condition that it would be Laurie's end. However, given she has signed on for David Gordon Green's new sequel, it would seem she agrees this film was not the most fitting of send-offs.

And we haven't even gotten to the worst of it, as once Laurie's out of the way, Michael goes strolling right into Reality TV world, where a loathsome ensemble of fame-hungry nitwits head into his childhood home with cameras rolling. The original has a timeless quality, but there's no mistaking Resurrection as anything but a product of the early 2000s, and - as this film stands to demonstrate - that wasn't necessarily the best time for mainstream horror.

And as if all that wasn't bad enough, four more words: Busta Rhymes Kung Fu.
