    Storyline

    • Trivia
      After filming for two weeks, Donald Pleasence gave his much bigger trailer to Danielle Harris once he left set. Harris's mother had been complaining about the small size of her daughter's trailer and Pleasence decided that she should have his.
    • Goofs
      We see the police, along with Jamie and Dr. Loomis, set up a stakeout at Michael Myers' house. But a few scenes later, we see that Michael Myers has an attic full of dead bodies. Why didn't the police find these when they searched the attic before the stakeout?
    • Quotes

      Loomis: Michael, it will destroy you, too. One day, Michael, this rage which drives you... You think if you kill them all it will go away. It won't. You have to fight it in the place where it's strongest.

      [Myers can be faintly seen in the woods]

      Loomis: Where it all began! If you want to get rid of this rage, Michael, go home. Go home! Go to your house, I shall be there waiting for you. You'll find her waiting for you.

    • Alternate versions
      The shot of Mikey (Jonathan Chapin) quivering on the ground was shortened to avoid an "X" rating. You can still notice the abrupt jump in the shot before he is dragged away by Michael.

    Not that bad of a sequel
    Honestly Halloween 5 used to be one of my favorite sequels of the franchise, now that I can see the many flaws I see why it's not the best. But it should definitely not get all the bad credit that the film obtaines, because it's not so bad. It's entertaining, and I like how it adds some different content, and provides a great atmosphere.
