Goddamn. After Season of the Witch this franchise took a complete nosedive. There are no redeeming qualities from 4 and up that I'm not even going to write an individual review for them, but just copy and paste this on all. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

Ehhh..Halloween V was ok, but they really should have stopped with the series after this one.

a fun horror flims

I would pass on this sequel if you never saw the film. Utterly lame..the story is suppost to take place directly after fouth but Michaels mask totally different, shows emotions, and is flat out boring. Right at the bottom of the Halloween Franchise with Halloween Resurrection & Zombies

Ehh Ok Watch If Your Drunk Or Really Stoned HeHe Awesome

Easily the worst movie in the series. MM cries, tries to run people down in a car and even goes on a date in this crapfest. WTF kind of slasher movie is this?

Its kind of funny to hear people hate on the Zombie movies and then say how great the Halloween sequals are.

Ok, definately not the "Best" of the Halloween" Films, but it does have its Moments of pure Creepiness! It basically is a direct conclusion to Halloween pt 4 set a Year Later and poor Young Jamie is in some kind of Childrens Psychiatric ward trying to Deal with the events of the prior Film. We find out that Michael has been in a "Coma" the past Year and of course wakes up on Halloween to once again stalk his Niece and anyone who gets in his way! And of course theres Donald Pleasance returning once again to play Dr.Loomis proclaiming yet again "Michaels Comming" and of course, He's right!! Theres a few Suprises along the way, but none greater the seeing the Death Of Rachel, Jamies "Sister" from her adopted Family! I still find myself trying to figure that one out, was this a last Minute decision, as to throw some shock Value at the Audience? Perhaps the Actress wanted a Bigger "Cut" of the Pie and the Producers said no, we'll just Kill you off, or perhaps it was a way to introduce a new "exciting" Character in the form of Tina -"Michael, STOP the Goddamn Car"!- Rachels best Friend, who really Breaks Tradition in these types of Films for not only being the "Sexy" Girl but also being abit of a "Slut" and she basically headlines this Film next to Danielle Harris's Jamie! Then of course we have the "Mystery" Man, who I found out just a few days ago in fact who the Hell it was from pt 6 "don't get me started on that one, yet"! No, this Movie is by no means a "Classic" nor is it as crappy as you would think it would be, even as I was writting the above plot points it came across as well, "Crap" but its Frightening at the right Moments, kindof Gritty, and in some ways, actually Funny, whether Intentional or not! Of course the ending left it open for another Sequel with Michael being "Blown out of Prison" by Mystery Person and young Jamie crying "NOOOOOOOOOOO"!!!! Well my sentiment excately by the time I saw pt 6, but well leave that for another Day!! This Film has it's Moment's of entertainment and afterall, isn't that what you want from a Movie?

Surprising enough, this isn't as good as the fourth, or the first two. Halloween 5 is what you expect, Michael Myers is back in town, slashing people to pieces for no reason, except for revenge. A really boring, simple plot here, with a few acting issues. Although, again, that atmosphere from the first two movies are back, with great scary tones, and gory death scenes. Myers is back for good, and he gives off a great performance. Fans of the series will love this, but horror fans watching this for the first time won't be pleased with it.

6/10

Decent enough sequel that suffers from presenting too many ideas that never pay off. This flick is infamous for piling on questions that you will never get an answer for, see Halloween 6....


Posted By: Quint's Machete at 8:28am, April 30, 2009

I liked this installment for the most part. I hear a lot of bitchin' about the mask. I liked the mask myself. It's much more sinister looking in this one, compared to his mask in part IV. The part IV mask looked stupid to me. On to the movie. The beginning starts to introduce the strange "Thorn" mark, which will be explained further in the next episode. The "black suit guy", is the doctor who's sorta' the leader of this cult. He's MEANT to be mysterious in this one, so we'll be compelled to find out more in the next installment. It's a lot darker & grittier than part IV. Pleasence is once again brilliant as usual. I was surprised that they killed off Rachel in this one. Harris did a great job. Overall, it's pretty good. It beats the holy hell outta' Resurrection anyway!!! It's worth a viewin!!!


Posted By: LuJr81 at 8:08am, April 30, 2009

Once again, the mask in this movie was horrible, but Mike was still kickin ass and takin names. Its, in my opinion, the worst sequel in the series(besides part 3 of course). That whole black suit guy just fucks wit me a little bit,who the fuck is that!? But Newayz, Danielle great once again and even though he was kind of annoying Dr Loomis always comes thru with a good performance. R.I.P. Donald Pleasence


Posted By: cjr83 at 2:17am, April 22, 2009

just as bad as the rest of the post carpenter halloweens


Posted By: Jason4eva at 9:08pm, April 12, 2009

Besides the original and H20......the best! Four is close behind but not near the suspense this one delivered.Danielle Harris rocked and the girl who played Tina (I think her name was Wendy Kaplan) was great especially if your trying to replace Rachel(Ellie)!!!! Just everything worked! No I didn't understand the guy in black but the movie deliverd enough that it just didn't matter.I really don't understand why people hate this one!


Posted By: Skratchy at 7:26pm, April 12, 2009

This is my favorite of the sequels. There's just something about it. I don't get why it gets the flak that it does; it's a better made film than the fourth.

It's really all about the last fifteen or so minutes though. Real intense, especially the laundry chute scene. The ending was brutal and felt, for lack of a cooler word, passionate.

Love it.



Posted By: randomrick at 8:21pm, March 10, 2009

on par with the last film it was pretty decent weird ending though?


Posted By: TheBurning at 8:05pm, February 13, 2009

Michael Myers gets in a coma. Wakes up a Year later on Halloween. That is the lamest shit. Who ever wrote this movie is a fucking idiot. This movie was an imoral piece of shit. Halloween 5 belongs in the dumpster. Worst in the series. It was so bad that I rather watch Michael take a dump on a womans breast. Dr. Loomis was the nut in this film. Jamie was a dumb little bitch. Worst fucking mask in the series. This is the most I ever wrote for a review. Why? Because I want everyone to know that this is Halloween with retards and I recomend that no one sees it. This movie is a good example of being straight to video. But it wasn't. Instead It was released in theatres. I feel bad for whoever paid $3.00 or how ever much it was back then. Well I shouldn't be talking, I own this worthless piece of shit film.

sure to keep you entertaining
AND OH MY GOSH THAT CAR CHASE WHEN HE IS CHASING JAMIE! AAAHHHH



Posted By: mikethademon at 8:17pm, January 8, 2009

Pretty cool, but not as good as Halloween 4. I shot him 6 times!(Dr. Loomis/RIP)


Posted By: halloween9movie at 9:16am, January 6, 2009

This film was good but It could of been better if the production team would have just waited and planned and filmed it in 2 years but I have to admit that the beginning of the movie probably wouldn't be as good as it is now


Posted By: HalloweenFanatic78 at 4:29pm, January 4, 2009

definately my favorite halloween movie. the beginning was BADASS!!! it was a genious movie and definately the creepiest halloween movie because of all the times michale appears behind someone. I liked how they killed rachel because that was unpredictable. I thought the whole movie was. And the laundary shoot scene was AWESOME!!!! i just love this movie!!


Posted By: rusted31 at 5:55am, December 19, 2008

The second weakest link in the series next to Resurrection. This is basically an extension of Part 4 but without the good characters, never ending sense of dread, suspense , decent direction and script. One of the best things of Part 4 was the relationship between Jamie and Rachael, we actually cared about them but in this one they kill Rachael off ! Big mistake. The saving grace of this entry is of course, Danielle Harris. She does an amazing job of playing a young girl completely broken down and traumatised forever by the events of Part 4. When Jamie isn't on screen it's just not good. Myers didn't even feel scary or threatening at all in this. Skip this and watch the better 6th installment instead.


Posted By: halloweenfiend at 1:57pm, December 18, 2008

descent sequel but not the strongest in the series.i wanted to kill those two fucktard cops and dipsy Tina myself,but i for one enjoyed the mystery of the man in black.


Posted By: Acathla at 3:43pm, October 28, 2008

And the killing continues....


Posted By: downward_spiral at 3:29pm, October 15, 2008

My least favorite of the series.


Posted By: MichaelMyers1031 at 5:23pm, August 7, 2008

Pretty disappointing sequel. Not a horrible movie but not a good one either with a lot of weak spots like Myer's new mask, the new Myer's house, the two stupid mumbling cops, the bad lines, the teenagers (usually in Halloween films we get good teenager characters) not in this one. And i was disappointed that they had to kill off Rachel. I would have prefer her to live. This is a bit boring throughout the film but it's still an Okay sequel but should have been a lot better.


Posted By: BUULOK at 7:23am, July 4, 2008

I didnt mind this one, except for that stupid music when those 2 "bumbling" cops walk out from the house. What the fuck was that all about?


Posted By: halloweenfan at 8:00pm, May 5, 2008

Good movie if not for the new mask and the ending.


Posted By: Slayer6(sic)6 at 10:41pm, May 4, 2008

I agree with QueenOfHalloween It's not one of the best but it's not the worst in the series. It is a little boring at some parts but most of it is really good...


Posted By: QueenOfHalloween at 1:07pm, March 20, 2008

This was definitely not one of the strongest in the series, but it wasn't the worst either. It's a descent follow up, an essential if you want to follow the series. Recommended for Halloween fans!


Posted By: GGoblin31 at 11:40am, March 19, 2008

It goes without saying that during any given 'Halloween' marathon, I almost give up while watching 'The Revenge of Michael Myers'. It's the cinematic equivalent of eye cancer. Can you say rushed sequel? I don't think part 4 even finished its theatrical run when this started rearing its ugly head at audiences. Much like the previous entry, we're thrown right back into the Jamie Lloyd/Rachael Carruthers storyline-- but this time it's unscary, uninteresting and very annoying. Jamie is now a basket case who literally can't speak because of the events that transpired in the end of Part 4. Funny how that never truly gets addressed here. Her fake older sister Rachael is no longer the strong-willed stalwart sister, but has been written into a late-80's, crimped-hair wearing sleaze-bot. I hate when films don't follow arcs established in sotrylines that came before them. As for Michael, we're supposed to choke-down that after he fell in a well (funny) that cops soon dropped dynamite into (funnier), the ol' Shape crawled out into a river and shacked-up with popeye for a year. What?! Oh, and get this: a year later he wakes up on.....HALLOWEEN! I want a film that documents the time spent between Popeye and an unconscious Myers. The rest of the film feels like an untalented retread of other Halloween movies with unusually horrible acting by all. Even Dr. Loomis gets on the nerves in this one. It's hard to find anything likeable in this one. I guess I liked the end credits.
