‘Michael Myers escapes from years of comatose incarceration while being transported from a maximum security institution. Michael Myers carves his way to Haddonfield - the original setting of Michael’s massacre, leaving a bloody trail of carnage and corpses.’
‘Only one man knows of the true horrors of this mad man - Dr. Loomis, who returns to Haddonfield to do battle once again with Myers. But Dr Loomis knows only too well it will be almost impossible to outwit the skill and cunning of Michael Myers.’
Halloween 4 is a particularly weak movie, it is obvious that it was made to cash in on the John carpenter’s original 3. There is practically no gore, no story line and the acting is rubbish, but it follows on from Halloween 1 and 2, and stars Donald Pleasence once again. If you are looking for a better movie, look no further than a Friday 13th film. At least they are watchable.
