The Halloween franchise gets a lot of attention during the month of October, and while fans are revisiting the past films and watching the new one, Halloween Ends (read our review Here), in theatres and on the Peacock streaming service, we decided this was a good time to dig into the making of one of the Halloween films with a new episode of our Wtf Happened to This Horror Movie? video series. The movie being covered this time around is my personal favorite of the sequels, 1988’s Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (watch it Here) – and you can find out all about the film’s development and production by checking out the video embedded above!
Directed by Dwight H. Little from a screenplay by Alan B. McElroy, Halloween 4 has the following synopsis, lifted from the back of the VHS release:
Ten years ago he changed the face of Halloween.

Loretta Devine has been tapped to co-star opposite Jonny Lee Miller in ABC's drama pilot Eli Stone.
Meanwhile, Illeana Douglas has landed a recurring role on CBS' freshman drama series Shark.
Eli, produced by Touchstone Television and studio-based Berlanti Television, is a high-concept legal drama about a lawyer (Miller) who finds out he might be a prophet. Devine has been cast as Eli's formidable assistant, a sardonic and refreshingly candid woman who always says exactly what she feels.
The project was written by Greg Berlanti and Marc Guggenheim, who are executive producing.
Devine portrays Adele Webber on ABC's Grey's Anatomy and has a role in the upcoming feature film Dreamgirls. Her recent credits also include the Lifetime Television movie "Life Is Not a Fairy Tale: The Fantasia Barrino Story" and Fox's Boston Public.
On Shark, Douglas will portray a smart, sexy defense attorney described as being tough enough to go toe to toe with the charismatic, self-confident defense attorney-turned-prosecutor Sebastian Stark (James Woods) and confident enough to have fun doing it.
Shark, from 20th Century Fox TV and studio-based Imagine TV, recently was given a full-season pickup.
Douglas' credits include the upcoming Edie Sedgwick biopic Factory Girl and the independent feature The Bondage. She recently did a turn playing herself in the comedy documentary Pittsburgh opposite Jeff Goldblum.
Douglas also has signed on for the film Life Is Hot in Cracktown, written and to be directed by Buddy Giovinazzo and produced by Larry Rattner and Braxton Pope.Devine and Douglas are repped by Innovative Artists.

MILAN -- Los Angeles-based production and international sales company Dream Entertainment said Sunday that it has closed a slew of territories for its horror picture Monster Man in an early bout of MIFED dealmaking. The movie has been sold to Kinowelt in Germany, Gaga in Japan and Magna Pacific in Australia, with Les Films de l'Elysee picking up Benelux rights. Deals were also closed for Scandinavia (Scanbox) South Africa (Warner Newmetro), Mexico (Gussi), Greece (Village Roadshow), as well as Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines and the Middle East. Directed by Michael Davis, Monster Man follows two university buddies on a cross-country drive with a sexy, mysterious hitch-hiker. Their trip takes a bad turn when a Big Black truck starts following them. The film stars Eric Jungmann, Justin Ulrich and Aimee Brooks. The movie has been selected for the Sitges Film Festival, which specializes in fantasy and horror and which unspools in Spain at the end of this month. The deals were announced by Dream's chairman and CEO Ehud Bleiberg and president Yitzhak Ginsberg. "These robust sales prove once again that in today's market -- both domestic and international -- a good horror film has legs," Bleiberg said. Dream Entertainment co-produced the movie with Lions Gate Films, which will distribute in North America. The film's producers are Bleiberg, Ginsberg and Larry Rattner.
