incarnation while being transported from a maximum security institution.

However before she died she gave birth her daughter Jamie (Danielle Harris) who now has nightmares about her not-so nice Uncle coming after her. A family fostered her and her foster sister Rachel (Ellie Cornell) does her best to take care of her. However, on Halloween, ... ...At first glance, then, Halloween 4 appears to have little to warrant it being classed as special or even close to being so. The motive behind this film was purely money, promptly shown when Akkad (the executive producer of all the Halloween films) decided to carry on with a sequel despite the creators Carpenter and Hill not being involved. If a film is driven with the focus of money it can lose the focus of making a good film. However, that said, ...

Advantages: Atmospheric Disadvantages: The scene on the pick-up truck
...to see the preview of Halloween 4 on Halloween night – great PR stunt – and at the time had only seen the first movie and not the other sequels. The production values of the film and how different they were from the cheap and nasty Friday 13th movies instantly surprised me. This combined with the large amounts of fog and the subtle soundtrack helped the film develop a dark and foreboding atmosphere.
The film opens at quite a pace with ... ...medium one. After all, the guy has been in a coma for years, how dangerous can he be?
Within minutes of the film starting, a gruesome struggle in the ambulance – which you know is going to happen – results in Michael disappearing off into the sunset.
Before long Dr Loomis is off on his trail and the story shifts to Haddonfield where Michael’s niece is now living with foster parents. The story progresses at a suitably engrossing ...

Advantages: great atmosphere and tension Disadvantages: None
Halloween 4 gives us a worthy follow up to Halloween. Michael Myers is back in Haddonfield after escaping from a secure hospital, naturally by killing lots of people in various bloody ways, and is now looking for his 8 year old niece, Jamie, played by Danielle Harris. The film revolves around how Michael slowly brings himself back to health whilst tracking Jamie, and how Jamie, who is disturbed by her mothers death some years before, slowly realises ... ...lots of gore and bloody bits in it, but in between the film really succeeds in building up a sense of tension, tightening the screw to almost unbearable proportions in the middle sequence where Jamie and the police are baracaded into the Sherrif's house, aware that Michael Myers is somewhere outside (or is he?)
There is also a great deal of tension when we first meet Jamie, unable to sleep because of nightmares - it certainly made me jump when she ...

If micheal myers ever dies, i want his mask. ...
