    • Trivia
      Most of the cast and crew disowned this movie. On the Halloween: 25 Years of Terror (2006) DVD, they stated that the studio, producers, and director interfered and argued to the point of ridiculousness which resulted in a very poorly directed and edited film.
    • Goofs
      When Kara calls home, Beth answers a cordless phone, but the base station would not work without electricity.
    • Quotes

      Mrs. Blankenship: A long, long time ago, it was a night of great power. When the days grew short, the spirits of the dead, returned to their homes to warm themselves by the fire's side. All across the land, huge bonfires were lit. Ohhh, there was a marvelous celebration. People danced, and they played games, and they dressed up in costumes, hoping to ward off the evil spirits. Especially the boogey man.

    • Alternate versions
      In the original ending, the cult of Thorn kidnaps Kara and Danny Strode, intending to curse Danny with the sign of Thorn just like Michael Myers was as a child and make him kill his mother in a blood sacrifice. Kara is tied to a sacrificial altar in the bowels of Smith's Grove Sanitarium. They're saved by Tommy, who eventually stops Michael's pursuit of them with the carved stones he calls "the runes of light," which he explained to Kara in an earlier, also deleted scene as being the bane of the sign of Thorn. These rune stones are arranged in the Shape's path by Tommy, and when he steps within their circle, the Shape is frozen in place, like a mystical ward. Tommy then escapes with Danny and Kara, leaving Dr. Loomis to return, and face Michael and Dr. Wynn in the final scene.

    Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers 6/10

    The sixth installment to the Halloween franchise brings Michael Myers back to Haddonfield to kill Jamie's offspring. This movie way gloomier and darker compared to the previous Halloween films, which was kind of a breath of fresh air. Paul Rudd as Tommy Doyle, yes the kid that was babysat by Laurie Stroke, does a great job as the co-lead to the movie alongside Donald Pleasance. Dr. Loomis returns to his last movie of the franchise to stop Michael, only to run into a person from his past, The Man in Black. The Curse has a really good story and atmosphere but I have to really knock on the ending for being what I felt very incomplete. In order to satisfy the urge for a better ending, there is a Producer's cut of the film out there but sadly it isn't as strong as I hoped it would be. The 6th movie may follow the events from the 4th and 5th but it truly stands on its own for being a memorable film and a decent addition to the Halloween franchise.
