Summary: oh good lord.....why?
Review: This is the point where the Halloween series officially ran out of steam. After a truly horrifying ending in part 4, the filmmakers decided to completely blow it off and set us up with a ridiculous story of Michael being psychically linked to his terrified niece (Danielle Harris). Slightly better than the following Halloween 6 but that means absolutely nothing. In this film it is hinted that Michael is linked to some ancient Norse curse from a tatoo on his hand. Wasn't it scarier when no one understood why he was doing all this killing? The minute filmmakers try to explain the origin of an unstoppable serial killer, it's time to bury the guy. Quick. On a final note, don't believe the video box when it says "Michael Myers is finally unmasked! " You only get to see an extreme closeup of his eye, which doesn't look the least bit messed up (considering he was burned pretty badly at the end of Halloween 2 they could've thrown in at least a little scar tissue). Watch the first film. Then if you must see 2-4. Then stop if you know what's good for you.

Summary: THIS ONE WAS ALMOST AS GOOD AS THE FIRST!
Review: THIS ONE WAS SCARY.THE WRITER WAS REALLY CREATIVE HAVING DANIELLE HARRIS HIDE IN THE LAUNDRY SHOOT AND MICHEL TRYING TO STAB HER FROM THE OUTSIDE.THAT WAS REALLY FREAKY.AND IT WAS COOL HOW DANIELLE COULD FEEL WHEN MICHAEL WAS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE.ANYBODY WHO LIKES GOOD THRILLERS GET THIS ONE AND YOU'LL WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN.PREPARE TO GET FREAKED OUT BEFORE WATCHING THIS MOVIE.REALLY SCARY!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: a fine sequel
Review: I forget to said one thing about the series in Halloween 5. The mystery man in black is there to take micheal under his wing to protect for six years. He's cult member also the man make micheal crazy as a child and he was micheal doctor before Dr. Loomis. That why Halloween 5 and 6 works together in the plot twist.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Halloween 5, the somewhat slow, but still EXCELLENT movie!
Review: Halloween 5, The Revenge of Michael Myers, is among the best in the series, if you're a Halloween nut like me. With the exception of part III, the entire series graces my video collection, and I display it proudly. I was disappointed to see Rachel die so early in the movie, but at least we had Jamie and Loomis to move the story along. Donald Pleasance seems to have changed his approach to stopping Michael in this movie, trying to reach the 6-yr-old boy buried beneath the madness that makes Michael a killer, rather than killing The Shape. Danielle Harris again gives an excellent performance as Jamie Lee Curtis' daughter, although I did think the entire mute thing was stretching credibility just a bit. The two self-described lousy cops added the perfect amount of humor, especially with the goofy sound effects heard whenever they show up, until Michael hacked 'em with a pitchfork. The only thing I disliked about this movie was the transformed Myers house. At times, the movie moves somewhat slowly, such as in the barn, or when Jamie's in the laundry chute, but Halloween 5 does an excellent job of continuing the story begun in Halloween 4 and sets up the storyline for Halloween, The Curse of Michael Myers. By the way, if they release the alternate cut of Curse on video or DVD, please tell me!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Michael Myers Lives!
Review: Not the best although much more enjoyable than HALLOWEEN 2. This installment lacked the action of part 4, but it was still good. Michaels mask in this looked a bit pathetic and the way he killed people in this is like the style of Jason from FRIDAY THE 13TH movies. I liked the bit where he takes his mask off and sheds a tear, in a moment of thought. The ending is mysterious and there is also the appearence of a man dressed head to toe in black. Overall a good film which is better than part 2 & 6.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: He's out for Revenge!
Review: Halloween 5 is the BEST Halloween film EVER!It was a little bit scary,little bit gore,and a little bit funny.

This movie is BETTER than Halloween 4,6,and H20.It shows how he became evil but Halloween 6 tells how he became evil.

And for ,probaly,the first time it shows Michael Myers unmasked!

If your a Halloween fan GET this movie!It's TWO thumbs up!5 STARS!And it deserve to win a ACADEMY AWARD!

Get it or he will get REVENGE on YOU!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: WHATS WITH THE SOUND WHEN THE COPS ARE WALKING OUT!
Review: WHEN DID THE MYERS HOUSE BECOME SOME MANSION?I LIKED THE MOVIE ALOT,BUT THERE WAS SOME DUMB PARTS I'LL SAY.IT JUST WAS'NT A GREAT HALLOWEEN MOVIE IT WAS A GOOD HALLOWEEN MOVIE,AND IM GLAD MIKEY GETS KILLED(SORRY IF I RUINED IT FOR YOU)!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Still good- but nothing special
Review: Now, after the amazing comeback sequel Halloween 4 I was anticipating that this film would be just as good.Unfortunately I was wrong. I liked this film I must say but what really annoyed me was the plot. Myers is saved by a hermit after falling down the mineshift. He lives with him for a year until Halloween comes again. The Myers house is now a mansion, not a two storey. The plot is slow, Myers killing a lot of innocent teenagers when he could just go out for Jamie anyway. Good movie, so much killing was not needed though.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Better than 2 & 6, but not as good as 1, 4, & H20
Review: Halloween 5. Ehh, it's OK. I don't understand why the killed Rachel so early, or at all, concidering she was like the main role in 4. Michael did not have the 'touch' like he usually does. Also, the Myers' house does not look at all like it did in 1 & 2. It is much more fancy looking! But it is all mossy and viney and stuff. Donald Pleasence does not do a good acting job in this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Best Since the Original.
Review: I loved this movie alot. Michael killed Rachelle in the beginning which had my blood flowing because Rachelle was a major character in Halloween 4. It showed to me that this movie would be unpredictable. One thing I don't understand is the very beginning. It leaves off with the ending of Halloween 4 and Michael falls into a grave, Halloween 5 added to this by having Michael somehow end up in a river right after this. How did he crawl to the river if he was buried underground? Other then this flaw, I enjoyed the movie alot. The Halloween music is what really gets my blood flowing. The opening credits got me excited right away when the bone-chilling Halloween music played in sync with the knife stabbing the pumpkin. I also got this very same thrill throughout my body when Michael is chasing Jamie in the car and Tina screams "Leave her alone! ", the music and the horror acted together to really have me excited. This movie is the best since the original, even better then Halloween 2.
