This year’s film picks up on the heels of the previous, with Laurie, her daughter, and granddaughter fleeing the house they thought they successfully left Myers to die in.
It also marks the return of Jamie Lee Curtis (again), branching off into her own alternate timeline. The most recent reboot of the story, which this times goes all the way back to the end of the first film, is one of the most popular.
Myers stalks Laurie one more time, and then is off to his childhood home to terrorize a reality show being filmed there…? Yup. Two decades after escaping Myers, Laurie is under a new identity and headmistress at a school (full of CW teen stars of the mid-1990s), but Myers has finally tracked her down. Jamie Lee Curtis is back for the first time since Halloween II, and this film reverts back to the end of that second film as its origin point, ignoring the intervening films. However, it does have Paul Rudd, so that’s something. Perhaps one of the worst rated of the series, the sixth film is the last of the original timeline before several reboots that jump back to the first two films as origin.
In an attempt to branch the franchise into an anthology, this is the one film to not include the seminal killer himself, Michael Myers, in some form, but rather refers to the first two films as fictions within its larger narrative.
