Jamie Lee Curtis is a horror icon and the best survivor girl ever in a horror movie. It also doesn't hurt that her mom (Janet Leigh) starred in Psycho. Psycho could be considered one of the best horror movies ever made.

Another movie that is considered one of the best horror movies ever made is Halloween. A little low-budget movie that made Jamie Lee Curtis a household name and horror fan's favorite scream Queen.

Virus (1999)

Virus 1999

Virus is a science fiction horror movie about a crew that comes across what seems to be a deserted ship. Virus scored the worst on Rotten Tomatoes out of all of Jamie Lee Curtis's horror movies at 12%.

The only problem is the ship isn't deserted. It contains an alien presence that kills off the crew.

Halloween Resurrection (2002)

Halloween Resurrection is one of those movies; the older it becomes, the more hate it receives. It's another that has a 12% on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie is about students who have taken over Michael Myers old home and turned his house into a webcam reality show.

If you are a Halloween fan, you know Michael Myers dislikes when people mess with his home. One reason Halloween Resurrection receives so much hate is because of the death of a popular character in the franchise. Killing the character off angered the audience.

Halloween 2 (1981)

Coming in at 24%, Halloween 2 is a sequel to the original Halloween movie. It even takes place on the same Halloween night. The movie was directed by Rick Rosenthal and not John Carpenter.

Although Halloween 2 isn't as good as Halloween (sequels usually aren't), it is still an excellent follow-up to the original with some great kill scenes. One of the reasons that Halloween 2 receives hate is because it was the movie that introduced the Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) as the sister of Michael Myers (Dick Warlock) storyline. Many fans didn't like that.

Halloween Kills (2021)

Halloween Kills wasn't as well received as Halloween 2018. Many audiences found the storyline confusing and that certain parts of the movie went too far, like the murder of the firemen and how homosexuality was handled in the movie.

It received more hate than it deserved because it was a great addition to Halloween. It has a 39% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Terror Train (1980)

Terror Train was no Halloween, but it was good for a slasher movie. The storyline of Terror Train is a classic 80s slasher storyline. It was fun to see Jamie Lee Curtis and David Copperfield in the movie.

Prom Night (1980)

Prom Night 1980

Halloween (2018)

With a 79% on Rotten Tomatoes, Halloween (2018) was the Halloween movie fans had been waiting for.
