'That’s the real power of Michael Myers. No matter how many times they kill him, he returns with the unholy force of someone with back end deal points.'
” series, which comes to an end this weekend , has always been the least pretentious of horror franchises. A towering killer in a rubber mask pops out of the shadows to slash one victim after the next. Horror doesn’t get much more basic than that.
It opens with a promising sequence staged with a certain amused level of Hitchcockian chops. In Haddonfield, on Halloween night of 2019, Corey Cunningham , the film’s central character, is hired as a babysitter for an obnoxious boy named Jeremy. In what appears to be a cruel prank, the child soon vanishes. As Corey searches the house for him, the director,, ladles on the suspenseful camera angles, and we wait with baited breath for someone — the kid? Michael? — to emerge from the shadows.
At first, Rohan Campbell seems a likable actor. He’s appealing in a Roman-lipped young Tom Berenger way, and the fact that he comes on like such a vulnerable geek makes him a sympathetic presence. When his hand gets cut up in an altercation with some teen punks, he winds up at the clinic where Laurie’s live-in granddaughter, Allyson , works as a nurse.
Or something or other. David Gordon Green, who has directed all three films of the H40 trilogy, approaches this series with tiny green shoots of “creativity” that turn out to be just the thing to tamp down on the series’ primal entertainment value. His 2018 “Halloween” was a canny piece of slasher nostalgia, because it was as elemental as the original “Halloween” — an old-school movie about hacking people up and hanging them from hooks.
