My favorite Halloween sequel
15 May 2015
After the disappointment of not seeing Michael Myers in Halloween 3, Michael is now back from the dead and what a comeback! The movie starts perfect, the chilling and atmospheric intro is amazing, it captures the Halloween feeling perfectly, it's probably one of the most impressive intros I've ever seen. You can tell that the filmmakers had a very good team behind this film, cinematography is great and in the same vain as the original, setting is great, good directing and great casting, at least for the main characters. Donald Pleasence is as usual good as Dr. Sam Loomis, but it's those two girls who steals the show, Ellie Cornell and Danielle Harris, they have really good chemistry and acts very good. All that being said, H4: The Return of Michael Myers isn't perfect, sub-story with Rachel's boyfriend feel unnecessary, and there are other parts that just feels stupid.

Overall, The Return of Michael Myers is pretty much in the same vein as the first one, so it's a big chance for you liking this part if you loved the original, even if it isn't the masterpiece Halloween was, it's still very enjoyable and it is among Halloween 2 and H20 best best sequels in the Halloween franchise.
