    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Just so Danielle Harris wouldn't be scared, George P. Wilbur would often lift up his mask between takes to remind her that they were just making a movie and that he was not really going to hurt her.
    • Goofs
      When Jamie and Rachel get into the cop car and Sheriff Meeker drives off, you see Michael Myers standing in the road. Right before the scene ends, crew making the smoke blow are visible on the far left of the screen.
    • Quotes

      Dr. Loomis: You're talking about him as if he were a human being. That part of him died years ago.

    • Alternate versions
      The German version of this not-so violent film was cut during the gore scenes to get a more commercial friendly FSK-16 rating. Uncut version was later released with a FSK-18 rating (then later rated to FSK-16 in 2014 after only being BPjM indexed for four short years).

    okay

    Its not the terrible movie I was expecting. Scareless but still an ok watch. If you like the first two then watch, following 10 years after the end halloween 2. Id say its perfect runtime though as I feel it would of started to get a little boring if it was any longer.
