Advantages: May satisfy people with a desire for gore Disadvantages: Lacking atmosphere, Paper thin plot, Overused story
...nothing to do with the Halloween franchise or the main character 'Michael Myers' so does not merit mention and the fourth was quite atmospheric and did show glimmers of promise but was generally routine.
So with the way the series was going, I could hardly contain my excitement. (oh my, can you feel the sarcasm?)

Advantages: some scary scenes, interesting at times Disadvantages: jamie did not become like Michael Myers
Halloween 5 is the fifth installment in the Halloween movie franchise and this part is nothing better than the fourth part but I must say that the film is good to watch.

He breaks through the prison, eliminating all police officers and as Jamie checks the cell where Michael was imprisoned, she discovers that he has escaped. The movie continues into Halloween 6. Yet the story changes. Do watch the other few films as you will understand the movie. ...
