Halloween H20: 20 Years Later is a 1998 American slasher film directed by Steve Miner, and starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Adam Arkin, Michelle Williams, and Josh Hartnett. It is the seventh installment in the Halloween franchise. Ignoring the plots of the previous three installments, H20 is a direct sequel to the first two films and follows a post-traumatic Laurie Strode, who has faked her death in order to go into hiding from her brother, Michael Myers, who finds her working at a private boarding school in California.
Released in the United States on August 5, 1998, Halloween H20 grossed $75 million worldwide on a budget of $17 million, and received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics, with many considering it to be the best sequel in the series. A sequel, Halloween: Resurrection (2002), was released four years later.
