Myers, cool, but not as scary as all that. In this film he didn't seem like the Michael Myers of yore. He seemed more savage.

They didn't need the idiot cops that everytime they were on screen they played Three Stooges-type music.

Not the scariest in the franchise, but a pretty damn good sequel nevertheless.

Ways to make Halloween 5 better:

1. Make the film at a min. 2 to 3 years after Halloween 4.
2. Have a better directer.
3. Have less blood.
4. Look at your SCREENPLAY.
5. Dont re-shoot scenes over and over again.

Maybe Jamie could of been the killer in the film and at the end Michael shows up at the end.

i agree with stpaulgangster's comment. now begin my part of this comment: of all of the halloween films ever made, even halloween 3 and halloween 6, 5 is the worst. it made the least money of all of them, it was obviously rushed into production without any forethought given to what the story was going to be and who was going to direct it and other important things. yes, you can say 6 wasn't good, but give it some room to breathe, it was a movie that had to clean up the mess that 5 left, not an easy task. this movie sucked; the only silver lining was: danielle harris had a good performance.
