Its one year after the Halloween 4, and Michael Myers is back to wreak terror on Jamie Lloyd.

Jamie lost her ability to speak since the previous Halloween and is now in a Children's hospital. But, she seems to have a telepathic link to Michael . . . which only Dr Loomis seems to realize and her little friend in the hospital.

Halloween 5 is not an awful film, its just quite bad! There are some scares to be had especially the scene in which Jamie is in Michael's house . . .but otherwise this film won't shock you as much as the rest, its quite predictable at times, and this will annoy a lot of viewers.

The music is still there to act as a foil to the shocks, but there just aren't that many in this film!

The acting is still pretty good, and Dr Loomis is as good as ever, but this film just doesn't make the grade, which is a shame because Halloween 4 was so promising.

The film is one of the weakest of the series (apart from number 3); even so, horror fans will find enough to enjoy it

You are obviously a big horror fan, how many more Halloween films were there, cos your getting thru 'em! Leah

hi, Kelvan , sorry for the low rating the reason for this is I could not gather much info. or reasoning as to why Haloween 5 is a bad film , in your op. it says "Halloween 5 is not an awful film,it is quite bad.." but you do not go into any specific reasoning as to why it is poor what makes it poor , what could have been done better, direction, plot, etc <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>> Enjoy ciao!
