Trivia
Malcolm McDowell ruined a great number of takes by invoking hysterical laughter in the other actors.

Goofs
(at around 33 mins) No asylum where a character is imprisoned as criminally insane would give inmates metal forks. They would be replaced by plastic cutlery, for exactly the reasons that they end up being used here - fear of being used as weapons to attack staff or other inmates.

Quotes
Dr. Samuel Loomis: His eyes will deceive you; they will destroy you. They will take from you your innocence, your pride, and eventually your soul. These eyes do not see what you and I see. Behind these eyes one finds only blackness, the absence of light. These are the eyes of a psychopath.

Crazy credits
End credits are inter-cut with home video clips depicting Myers childhood.

Alternate versions
Brazilian theatrical version was cut by 26 minutes in order to secure a more commercial 14 years old certificate.

Featured in Howard Stern on Demand: Liz Call/Gary Screws Up (2007)
