During production of Halloween 6, distributor Dimension Films was having budget issues with its other upcoming horror sequel, Hellraiser: Bloodline (1996), and reportedly slashed $1 million dollars from Halloween 6's budget as a result. See more »

The size of the baby changes several times at the beginning of the movie. Also, the baby is far too big to be a newborn. See more »
By this stage the franchise had really gotten tired, the previous few had been very poor, almost an insult to the fabulous original.
Of the first six films I would place this third overall, after one and two. It doesn't deserve its reputation as a bad film, because it isn't bad, nor is it great.
On the plus side, it has some scary moments, Michael's character is well used. The acting in general is rather good, it's quite slick, in a nineties way. On the debit side, the story is a little far fetched, and I didn't particularly like the cult element, it's like they tried to rewrite the show's past. It's a bit silly I guess, but....
At least it has Paul Rudd and the wonderful Donald Pleasance.
Not that bad. 6/10
