C'mon J, gore does NOT make a movie great! Fun alot of times, but that means little in the overall perspective. Dead Silence was'nt a supergory flick & that's the best classic tale I've seen since Candyman. As CD said about H4, acting sucked, another made up concept of Michael Going after his neice (Laurie's Daughter). Laurie supposedly died in a car crash...blah, blah, blah. That movie dragged too by the way. Both are good, but H4 better...no way.
