This is the second Halloween film to make any sort of reference as to what exactly Michael Myers eats. In the original Halloween (1978), when Sheriff Brackett and Dr. Loomis enter the Myers house, they see something on the floor, which turns out to be the corpse of a dog. Dr. Loomis simply says "He got hungry." See more »

Alternate Versions
The original ending was alot less scary. After Freddy busts the cameraman, the CSI team investigates the scene. As a CSI women look down a hole where Michael slept, he jumps out and gets her. The theatrical endin was scarier and showed a coroner examining Michael's burnts face. His eyes then pop open as she screams. Also, the theatrical version seems to have longer shots of any death or gore than the original version. See more »
The people behind this film tried to give audiences what they wanted, slasher movies had been big news, and the Halloween franchise seemed to fit well for that genre. The opening scenes I really liked, indeed they're the best part of the movie, slick, menacing, and that music is just incredible. Reality TV was still very popular, and you can see why they came up with this plot.
Sadly that's the end of the good news, from there on it's downhill, I personally disliked the story, they had no qualms about cheapening the legacy of the great Halloween. It's tacky, the production, plot, characters lack any sense of quality, only the music stands out well. The behaviours of all characters are nonsensical, you keep saying to yourself 'would they really do that?'
They tried, but failed. 4/10
