Few people like this sequel and many people hate it. i think it wasn't a step down but a step in another direction. Michaels presence was way more brutal and terrifying.Don't dislike me for my opinon but i really enjoyed this sequel more than many of the others.
This, along with the original are the best Halloween movies by far. This rare Producers Cut is simply the best! Michael Myers is a great as he as ever been. The series is back on track here. Great gory death scenes, great acting, great music and some amazing script one liners. Pick this up, Halloween fans!

This is very hard to find, pick it up, its a collector's item! Crazy twist ending! It also explains the story better.
this movie was boring as crap. i didnt think it made much sense. the story was stupid. besides #3, this is the worst halloween movie ever made. it puts shame on the original
This movie isn't as scary as the theatrical release, but it sure does explain a lot more than the confusing official version of the film. I own a bootleg copy and it's a real good cliffhanger ending to the series, as it they should have stopped here if they were going to use this film. I think it could take any fan's dream of the Halloween series in any direction with this cliffhanger.
I own a bootleg copy of the producers cut on dvd I got it for my 20th birthday from My best friend I thought it was a kick ass sequel! It does exploit The Shape to much either you just know why he is evil and that's all you really know it doesn't pull a rob zombie it's again like the first one tells ya what ya need to know not a 25mintute analysis on his character it's just a shame because it really is the most under-ratted out of all sequels.
This film has been one of the most sought after films to date, along with Hellraiser: Bloodline Alternate Cut and The Crwo: City of Angels Director's Cut(all 3 Distributed by Dimension). I have seen 6, count em 6 versions of this film and believe me, it had a possibilty of being a pretty decent sequel, still not the best, but pretty good.
Whats funny about this film is that when The Crow was released on video they used the trailer for Halloween 6: The Origin of Michael Myers and for weeks I felt myself wondering what happened to this film and than Halloween; The Curse of Michael Myers came out was like "Huh".
Now I enjoyed the theatrical cut, not alot, but enough to leave on if it came on TV or Premium Cable, but the alternate 5 Versions are better, if Donald Pleasance(RIP) had lived I think we would have seen the original ending and Man, what part 7 would have been like, with Dr. Loomis being evil. This is one of those sad depatures from this world(alongside Raul Julia's last film Street Fighter)for Donald Pleasance was a great actor and did more than just 5 Halloween films(he is one of the best Bond villains EVER).
I nabbed a bootleg copy of this on VHS back in 1997. Being a Halloween fan, it's almost essential that you check this out. It's fascinating to see how much of a difference there is between this 'cut' and what audiences saw in theaters and continue to see on DVD. It is with great regret that I can't give this 'cut' much praise. This version delves deeper into the Thorn crap, and brings the Druid stuff way up front and flaunts it. There are more echoes of classic stylings here (e.g. Michael stalking characters throughout the day), but throwbacks can't save this mess. At one point in the film (and I'm not kidding), Paul Rudd confronts Michael and stops the unstoppable killer with... stones. Um, they're magical stones? Anyway, a lot of stupid shit is afoot in this version, and you don't get the hospital massacre/the exploding head/crazy cellmate lady/death by farm machinery/lame Tommy Doyle pipe-beating. Instead, you get better Alan Howarth score/ritual sacrifice/ magical stones/Jamie Lloyd getting whacked in her hospital bed/Dr. Wynn in a Count Dracula outfit/super laughable/confusing ending. Both versions of 'Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers' blow fairly hard... but I'll take the theatrical cut over this one.
