Brenden D A Refreshing Realistic Return To The Franchise With An Ending That Just Leaves Your Jaw Dropped Getting The Rough Edges Out Of The Way; Does That Mask Look Bad..... Yes. Is It A Bummer That Lorrie Was Killed Off Screen...... Yes. Is It Far-Fetched Loomis & Michael Both Survived..... Yes. Does It Have The Same Suspenseful Edge As The Original..... Of Course Not. However, This Is A Very Underappreaciated Halloween Film. The Town Has Been Affected By The Events Of The First Film And It Shows With How They Respond To The Return Of Michael Myers. The Mythodical Dismanteling Of The Town's Defenses & Power Is Brilliant. The Threat Is Taken Seriously. Rachel & Jamie Are FANTASTIC Additions To The Franchise & Make For Great Final Girls. The Town Mob Story Is Done Much Better Here Than In Halloween Kills. They Get The Wrong Guy, But Make Up For It At The End With The Big Save. The Kills Are Still Good, The Tension Is Still There Even If It's Not As Strong As The First Film. AND THAT ENDING...... THAT ENDING....... MADE.... THE MOVIE!!!! The Ending Is Brilliant And I Just Wish They Continued With This Story For Halloween 5, And I Still Hope Someday Someone Does A Proper Sequel. It Can Be Very Easily Done! A Solid Halloween Film B- 7.6/10 Every Horror & Halloween Fan Needs To See This Gem.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/16/25 Full Review Rafael S It's a good movie, but Michael's mask is horrible (but the mask in the fifth movie is the worst) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/25 Full Review TheRealMyers 7 Within the confines of the franchise as a whole. This one is the most faithful to the original. At least until 2018. The atmosphere and the tone. The music, the iconic Shape is back! However. There is some bad. The Mask is a little goofy. The acting, could be better. There are worse movies as a whole in the franchise that have better acting. But as a Halloween script and feature, this is one of the best as a whole. It sticks with babysitters and Michael. Haddonfield is back and just as iconic as ever! I will say, the Brutality was ramped up from the prior films. And the bandage look for Myers is a stand out for me personally. But I can't say it's much better than some of the later sequels or really any of the prior films. I can't give it more than a 6/10. And even then that's me highballing it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/04/25 Full Review Jake P Halloween 4 is arguably one of the best films for me in the franchise. Dwight little is an incredible director and the town of haddonfield truly felt like how Midwestern Halloween should feel and look. I think he hit the nail on the head. The mask - the mask wasn't the original but it was scary. I wouldn't want to catch a side eyed glimpse of it in my house at night. I absolutely love everything about this film. The filming locations are great and the script was terrific. I applaud the entire crew. R.I.P. Donald Pleasance and George P. Wilbur Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/10/25 Full Review Khaliel P After the failed detour of the third film, Halloween 4 brings Michael Myers back in a direct sequel to Halloween 2. With Laurie killed off-screen, the story follows her young daughter Jamie, now the target of her murderous uncle. Despite surviving the previous explosion, Michael returns stronger than ever, and Loomis once again chases him while authorities ignore his warnings. The movie falls into the typical slasher formula—plenty of victims, gore, and dumb teens—but stands out by making a 7-year-old girl the heroine. Although Michael now terrorizes an entire town rather than just a hospital, the weak pacing and lack of explanation for his supernatural powers hold the film back, leaving it a middling entry: not terrible, but far from truly satisfying.
