Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

You know you're in trouble when they stop numbering the sequels; this is the sixth, if anyone's counting. The unkillable chappie remains unkilled after offing a host of unknown faces on Halloween, only this time he's egged on by evil doctors and black magic. A series of competently engineered shock moments jollied along by a jazzed-up version of John Carpenter's original electronic score: slicker than crude oil and just as unattractive.
