About

You may enjoy this if you want a darker, bloodier franchise entry with a heavy dose of weird mythology; Not for you if you need a clear story, strong characters, or straightforward slasher thrills like See No Evil.

Pros: grim Halloween atmosphere; brutal kill scenes | Cons: messy cult storyline; weak character writing; confusing, disjointed plot
