Summary: Dwight H. Little's Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers
Review: This sequel is problably the second best Halloween sequel aside of Halloween II, just as good as H20, and it is certainly better than the stupid sequel Halloween III. It starts practitly where Halloween II left off, Michael Myers gets treatment at Smith's Grove. He escapes and heads back to Haddonfield to kill his his niece, Laurie Strode's daughter Jamie(Danielle Harris) who has been adopted by the Carruthers Family. Can Dr. Sam Loomis(Donald Pleasence) stop Michael once more from killing? Rent it and find out find out. Bad Stuff: Michael kills too many people, Most of the people are killed off screen, and Michael Mask is different. It is very freaky at the end when Loomis discovers that Jamie is dressed up in a Clown Costume with scissors in her hand......

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: "Myers lives...!"
Review: This is a fair sequel, but a little bit odd. The second movie took place an hour after the first, so they should have made that all just one movie. Then, Halloween III comes up short when we find out it has nothing to do with Myers or Laurie Strode, etc. And finally, we get Halloween 4, where Michael has given up on his sister and goes after his neice, Jamie Loyd. The ending to this one was really scary, and the end climax was pretty entertaining, but there is about a twenty-minute stretch here that doesn't have Myers in it. Myers wastes his time spying on his victims, but Jason just hauls off and slaughters 'em before they can blink. The acting was pretty good. As with the rest, the Halloween theme, composed by John Carpenter, is here. I say rent this one first, but even if you buy it, you're not wasting any money.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Puuuuuuuure Eeeeeeevil
Review: Well this movie tried to appease all the fans who weren't happy with Halloween III by bringing back Michael Myers to the storyline. While a promising idea, it's shame this movie wasn't better. My first problem with this movie was that we're forced to accept that Dr. Loomis didn't die in that massive explosion in part II. Another problem was the characters are very annoying, especially the awful redneck posse that goes out looking for Michael in trucks. The mask also looks really bad and Michael moves way too slow in this movie..... the original movie had Michael walking slow, but not that slow. As for the ending, my roommates and I honestly laughed when we saw it, it was that ridiculous. Unfortunately this movie spawned a bunch more sequels and is still going to this day. I must say that I actually enjoyed Halloween III more than this installment...... that movie at least had that Carpenter-like feel to it and one of Carpenter's best scores ever. This movie just feels like a totally different franchise.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another Great Sequel!
Review: I was extremely pleased with this movie. It had an awesome story, and a great cast. This was one of the best sequels, although I think pretty much all the sequels were good except for the 3rd one. I definetly recommend this movie to "Halloween" fans.

Rating: 4 stars

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Michael Myers returns!
Review: Halloween 4 takes a different story on Michael Myers. This time, Michael is after his niece with Dr. Same Loomis in hot pursuit.
True, Laurie Strode did not return but Halloween 4 still continues where part 2 left off. This movie will still entertain Halloween fans.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: This is flawed but heck of a lot better than halloween 3
Review: this is a flawed movie but still brings good action scenes and sometimes is scary but not really. ive seen every Myers movie and this is in the okay. you will enjoy this film it is good for to watch in the dark.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible plot and acting
Review: Even though Halloween 3 had nothing to do with the series, this one does not make up for the horrible plot and acting. The ending was very stupid as well, they tried to copy everything from the firs Halloween but they failed. Nice try though.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: More in tune with Carpenter's atmosphere from the original
Review: After "Halloween III" bombed at the box office, the filmmakers decided to bring back good ole Michael Myers. Picking up 10 years after "Halloween I and II", The Shape is being transferred to a maximum security facility which he escapes when he hears of his niece Jamie (Danielle Harris), living in Haddonfield. Jamie is the daughter of Laurie Strode (who has died in a car accident in this timeline) and knows of her uncle's homicidal tendencies, as she is teased in school, doesn't really feel accepted anywhere, even at her foster home, and isn't aware that her uncle is going to come after her. As Michael travels to Haddonfield, Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasance) is again hot on his trail as he warns the Sherriff of what might happen. This film feels like a Halloween movie, the atmosphere is just right, Michael hides in the shadows and there is not that much blood (at least not as much as in II). Everyone performs wonderfully, especially Danielle Harris as little Jamie and Ellie Cornell as her step-sister, Rachel. This film returns to Haddonfield and to the themes and atmospheres which made the original such a great film. Excellent entry in the series!

Rating: 5 stars
