TEN YEARS AGO HE CHANGED THE FACE OF HALLOWEEN. TONIGHT HE’S BACK!
Michael Myers wakes up from a ten-year coma, escapes and targets his niece (Danielle Harris); dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) is once again on his heels. Never mind the third stand-alone chapter, this movie has Myers back in action, even though Laurie Strode has been killed off. His attempts to destroy her young daughter result in a few grotesque scenes; the filmmakers try to capture the original’s atmosphere. The last scene has shock value, but on the whole this is a mediocre entry.
