Every Halloween Movie Ranked Worst To Best After Halloween Kills

13. Halloween: Resurrection (2002)

Resurrection had a lot going for it, including a welcome return for Halloween II director Rick Rosenthal, and an ever-brilliant Jamie Lee Curtis willing to have another fight with her seemingly indestructible brother.

Unfortunately, the whole thing falls apart almost instantly, with Laurie Strode being swiftly dispatched to make way for a new host of disposable characters who offer nothing new to the story they've walked in on, surely by mistake.

What follows is a dull, formulaic slasher with dull performances, dated twists, and a scene in which Busta Rhymes fights Michael Myers. There's nothing worth sticking around for, which is a shame given the potential of its first act. (Laurie's PTSD would set the stage for Green's far-off reboot, but here it's tossed aside.)

Put it this way: When a film is so unequivocally bad that the franchise has to erase it from the timeline, it's probably for the best we stay away.
