In my opinion, Halloween 4 is the best sequel in the franchise. Man, this movie brings back so many good memories. When I was a kid, I had a friend who had an older sister that worked at a video store. Even though I wasn't old enough, she would let me rent rated R movies. I remember riding my bike up to that video store and renting Halloween 4 on numerous occasions. For me, Danielle Harris is what really makes this movie so special. For only being 10 years old at the time, her performance was amazing. Also, I think that H4 had the best ending of all the Halloween movies. This movie will forever be a staple in my movie library.

Halloween 4 has the greatest opening in the series. Everytime you see it, you just know it's October!

The return of Michael Myers is to the Halloween franchise as the dream warriors is to the nightmare on elm street franchise, just a little better.

DUDE! I am totally obsessed with Halloween 4. That intro is the best intro in the entire series!

Halloween 4 really scared me when I was small, the intro still gets to me...

Funny, I decided to introduce my daughters to the Halloween franchise with Halloween 4 about a week ago. To my surprise, they actually found it to be very scary considering it's an old movie. Now me being Jason fan, they told me that Michael Myers it's actually scarier than Jason Voorhees. They told me that they found Michael Myers to be smarter and more resourceful and that is what made him scarier. I'm thinking to show them the original now.

Halloween II is still my favourite sequel, but 4 is a close second. I really love this film. Great revisiting!

Til this day, this has always been my go to Halloween movie...

I love Rachel so much. I feel like she never quite gets enough credit. Man, she was so aware on her feet, from the rooftop scene to the fire extinguisher in the school to the truck scene. Ahhhhh. One of my top final girls EVER.

I started my Halloween obsession with this movie as well. I loved the poster and still think it is the best sequel in the series.

Dude I agree!! I think this is the best of the whole series. I’ve loved since the first time I saw it. They really did an amazing job with the atmosphere, music, and the acting. Michael was presented to us more as an almost paranormal evil force rather than a guy with a mask on and GPW killed it. Best Michael and most intimidating. I loved the mask. It’s blank, emotionless, and empty. Michael is scarier without the details. Love love love this movie and Ellie Cornell especially!

I was excited as hell when 4 hit the Drive-In. It created such a great memory for me both on the screen and what was goin' on within the cars and crowd... Fantastic! Donald Pleasence made the movie real...

It’s a huge tradition for me every October to watch Halloween 4, 5, and 6 back to back to back to set the mood for that month. Halloween has always held a special place in my heart. It’s a great movie series with its flaws that I truly love and enjoy year round. Thanks for your videos! Insightful and great to watch! You should do full length movie commentaries for the whole series!

I will say I love the longer reviews! Around 20min is just perfect to help get your point across. The sub 10min ones just feel like the power point editions of these hehe. Edit: Hands down to me the best sequel of the franchise the ending still gives me chills with Loomis trying to shoot Jamie after he realizes what she did and wants to stop it before it gets worse. Just damn!

The opening of this movie with Michael Myers recovering his wounds from his last appearance and escaping from the ambulance reminded me of the opening of Friday the 13th Final Chapter when Jason is recovering from his wounds and he’s in the hospital he kills the nurses & escapes which is also a reference to Halloween II

My favorite 🔪 🎃 🔪 🎃 🔪 🎃 🔪 🎃

I LOVE this movie! The ending is phenomenal and Danielle Harris' performance was amazing as well! Great kills throughout the movie.

This is my favorite Halloween sequel and I'm so glad you've revisited it. I love this movie because it's so similar to the original, yet so different. I also love the acting. And Michael Myers, while he could have looked better, he looked ok, but he was such an unstoppable monster. And the f*ckin ending movie was AMAZING!!!!

I recently showed Part 4 to some friends and it was cool to see them just as shocked and horrified by the ending as I was when it came out.

I honestly didn't know how to approach talking about this sequel until now because up until Halloween kills, this was the Myers sequel that I had the most mixed feelings on. On the positive side of things, this movie has one of the most unique openings out of any of the sequels. It's the first film to not use the Jack O Lantern opening from the first three movies and instead goes for an ominous tone that permeates an autumn atmosphere, very haunting.

What I love about Halloween 4 is the simplicity of it, which was also great about the 1978 original. No polarizing twists or complex origin sub-plot(s), didn't go out of its way to answer every question, still kept some mystique.

I started with Halloween 2 when I was 4, saw the original (and fell in love with it) when I was 7. Then, in 1988, Halloween 4 came along. I was 8. The thumb to the forehead did it for me. I've been a Michael Myers Stan ever since, and it's thanks to part 4

I never even noticed that guy had Bucky written on his helmet. Lol. Don't try that Halloween shit with me!

Truly one of the best Halloween sequels!!! 🎃 loved it since the video days

One of my all time favorites, of the Halloween Franchise, and of my childhood. Danielle Harris’s acting was so great and astonishing at such a young age in such a dark type of film.🎃🔪 I even liked Part five also!! Been binging some of your videos today Lee lol!! Another great review, of such a still awesome cult classic!

Another great review. Halloween 4 is my favorite sequel in the franchise, and I'm glad to hear you give it the praise it deserves. It's a good, unpretentious film that doesn't get dull, and at the heart of it is its awesome central characters.

I think there's a lesson in both Annie's death in the original and Kelly's death in this and that's don't be a Haddonfield sheriff's daughter.

I also respect that we are not focusing on Lauire Strode this time around and instead one of the many kids she would have in most of the various timelines, in this case her daughter Jamie. Once again, it gives the impression that it doesn't matter how distant you are to Michael Myers, if your related to him, he's coming for you. I also like how the legacy of what happened ten years ago has had an effect on her. It's a lot more personal for a little girl having to go through all this constant stress versus a teenager like in the other timelines.

This was the first Halloween I ever saw as a kid. Fell in love 🎃🔪

Halloween 4 was the first horror movie I've ever seen. It's a great movie.

Such a good fuckin movie. My favorite horror of all time and the first one I ever saw on TV when I was a kid, scared the shit out of me. Great atmosphere, colors,theme music and kills..from the intro to the end..AWESOME!

Loomis is the ultimate 'Ahab'. They really nailed this film though, sheriff didn't take no shit, he was like "Myers is back? We ain't takin no chances!" *grabs shotgun* the characters seemed real for the most part. Love it.

Agree that Myers is the most pure evil out of all the portrayals

I miss the good old days. It was 1988, I was a Halloween fanatic watching the tv and a commercial for Halloween 4 came on the tv. I must have skipped out on reading Fangoria lately because I hadn't heard of any new Halloween movie. And it was TWO WEEKS AWAY! So I go into the movie totally cold and loved it. Thirty years later I still enjoy it, although I'll admit parts of it haven't aged very well. Kinda sad it's about to get re-re-retconned out of existence. Again.

My favorite scene was the rooftop chase. Danielle Harris thinking Rachel was dead, then running down the street, she looked absolutely terrified! There's something about Michael going after a child that really unnerved me (in a good way)

It has a great natural feeling to it like the first, it has that original Halloween magic, the ending is definitley not a disappointment! Masterfully done👍

Love your channel. It's nice to see other people that really enjoy this franchise. Anybody that knows me, knows that Michael rules above all

Your memories of this film are almost identical to mine. I also saw this on opening night just days away from my 15th birthday which falls right before Halloween. I went with a group of friends and the theater we went to was packed as well. I remember what a roller coaster ride going to see this was. The audience was screaming, laughing, cheering, then screaming again. The scene that had me jumping out of my seat the most was the attack on the roof of the house and Rachel was hanging from the gutter high above the ground while Michael was stabbing at her hands. The whole audience was losing its shit. In many ways, I prefer this one to the original, and don't care for part 2 much at all. I saw the original when it first aired on NBC on Halloween night, 1981. We had a black and white set at the time and we shut out all the lights and it was storming outside. It really scared the shit out of our family. Later on, I saw it in color and it wasn't the same. In Black and white I could believe it was Halloween in a Midwest town much like our own. In color I noticed details you couldn't see in B&W, like palm trees in the background in certain scenes, and a generally too-green appearance overall. Plus that mask in B&W is twice as scary because you don't see it until its close. I wish they would release it in B&W to be honest because it just becomes a different film. Part 4 really sets the tone with those opening credits and just the overall look. Plus I love the scenes in the drug store because it feels so authentic as we had stores like that where I lived. They really got it right. Part 2 I thought was boring until the third act. A lot of times the Halloween theme is playing while nothing is going on to the point it feels overused. Plus, it seemed like a cash in on the horror-in-the-hospital sub-genre popular at the time with films like Hospital Massacre, Visiting Hours, etc. Part 4 in general seemed like a better directed film, and fleshed out characters that you cared more about. Plus it was the debut of Daniel Harris who has contributed greatly to the genre.

Rachel is also a very good final girl. I also like the arc they give her. Starting out as a stuck-up teenager who doesn't even accept Jamie as her adopted sister, but then starts to realize that responsibility and starts to care about her once Michael is set lose on the town. However, if I had to pick a favorite character in this movie, it would have to be Dr. Loomis. I would actually go so far as to say that this is the best Dr. Loomis movie by a landslide. He starts off as someone who wants to destroy Meyers, only to find out in the end that you can't truly put an end to the evil.

Halloween 4 is my favorite in the Myers series (3 is my favorite overall) mainly due to it being the first one I saw all the way through as a kid.

Another excellent review! This is a great sequel. Saw it in the theatre. Great characters, score, and Loomis is excellent. Love the scene where he gets picked up by the preacher. He’s like, “And people think I’m crazy”. Your reviews are spot on, great job!

I'm watching it now. Great video drumdums👍giving it a second chance and the mask isn't that bad.

Great movie that gave me nightmares too. One scene I remember that no one seems to mention is that scene where Loomis is picked up by that Preacher. That was a great scene. The way they banter and the lines Loomis delivers is just awesome

Great video and review Lee!!! I love Halloween 4. Definitely one of my favorites in the series! I love the characters, the story, the opening, and the moments when they are trapped in the Sheriff's house.

I love the beginning. So gets u in the hoilday sprit. Love it

Best Halloween intro love it really gets me in the Halloween spirit! Great review love this movie

Great times.. Especially the thumb through the forehead.

Halloween 4 is not only my favorite Halloween movie but my favorite horror movie in general. The intro of this movie is great, it gives me chills, the farm without the halloween theme song, it was fresh and diffrent. Before i saw this movie i was thinking to myself "how will they bring myers back in this one after that explosion?" I thought i would probably not like the explanation they would give us for why Myers is still alive, but they just said that he and loomis almost die but both survived and some how i loved that simple explanation, it was better than anything they could come up with. For me the halloween movies were not only about michael but also about loomis and both were at their best in this movie , Loomis is a great horror hero in this movie, you can feel his emotions about Michael and how he really wanted to stop him. There's a scene were loomis is hitchiking and a reverend gives him a car ride, that scene is gold because that man was insane and a curious character that was also hunting evil, i would love to see more of his story. Michael feels more dangerous in this movie than in any other, this is my favorite version of myers by far. Rachel and Jamie both were amazing characters, the side characters were all great and the end of this movie is just perfect, too bad they screwed it in the sequel they could had take the series in a fresh and diffrent direction. To me this movie will never be toped, Halloween 2018 isn't as great as this one and sadlly i'll say that without the great Dr.Loomis no other halloween movie will be as good, Donald gave us his best with his character and his performances were perfect. This movie as apecial place in my heart i really love it from begining to end

Another wonderful Revisited reviews. Especially timely in October. Thanks DumDrums!!!

No talk about the rooftop seen one of the best scenes in the movie 💗💗

I was 11 when Halloween 4 came out, so just around Jamie's age. This movie terrified me, because I could imagine myself in her shoes having to deal with an unstoppable force like Michael Myers. It had great sets. The rooftop set where he is chasing them on the roof of that giant house. The school set. Every house seemed to be a giant sized, and spooky. It was an awesome return for the franchise. I put it behind Halloween 1 and 2, which I kind of see as one movie, since they happen back to back. The intro is one of the best. I do love the pumpkin intros, but this one set the mood just right.

Great commentary man! I saw this in the theatres opening night with my dad in the 6th grade. Best movie theatre experience ever. Everybody was so into it. Did you know that the line "Let it burn!" (that Jamie Lee says at the beginning of Halloween Kills) was actually in the original Halloween 4 script? I agree with you about the mask. In the theatre, you didn't really think twice about it. Great channel.

Yes! That intro was DOPE!! Great review, Lee-or, should I say, great “revisit”, lol! I can feel your enthusiasm about Halloween and Michael Myers; and can definitely sense how much you love (and enjoy) these Halloween films. This was enjoyable to watch as always-like watching a good friend of mine give a review/revisit video. Well, have a great weekend, Lee! I plan to get a few pumpkins and do some pumpkin carving this Sunday and watch the HELL out of Stranger Things! 🤗🖤🎃🌙🦇🕸🕷💀🔮

thanks to dropping the treater great one

Dude! You mentioned the commercial and i got chills! I was a obsessed (and terrified) with 1 and 2 prior to the release of 4. i had no idea they had made another one and i was literally in bed watching tv one night and that commercial came on. I swear to god I almost shit myself!! I didn't sleep that night!

the crowd actually cheered when Rachel stirred after her fall, and jumped out of their seats when Rachel hit Michael with the fire extinguisher.

I think the intro with the credits is the best opening in any movie. It's got that Children of the corn feeling. Very eerie. But I don't care for the mask. It's too white maybe. But everything else about this movie is stellar.

i remember the crowd cheered when rachel hit michael with the car and he fell way back. grand slam.

Love all the reviews thanks so much and i completely agree the dopest intro ever

Love this movie and your reviews. Keep up the great work!

Perfect sequel hands down,thank you for revisiting it!

Great to see your passion for Halloween 4 and for the franchise. The original Halloween is just a fantastic film - it is in a completely different league to any of the other offerings - I feel like it is low key acknowledged as one of the greatest films of all time, which it definitely should be. Very few films will ever have the impact that the original Halloween has had. This is definitely the second best of the franchise. Props for the MacReady shirt - another one of the all time great films.

Awesome review!!! This is for sure one of the best reviews for this movie. I love this movie and It's tied with the first for my favorite.

The opening is Amazing in this film, really set the Mood for what the film would Be!

Amazing movie,Amazing review!!!!! Keep the videos coming lee!!

This is my Absolute favorite Halloween film ever Danielle Harris rocked in this film and Ellie Cornell was Great not to forget Donald pleasence

I only have just recently discovered your channel and I have to say this is an insightful and well dictated review. I know this may sound stereotypical but the southern accent adds a bit of charm as well. Keep up the good work!.

Lol I just loved this intro great job Lee

You knew I was bound to comment Lee!!! Yes Halloween 4 is a big reason we even have all the movies after in the franchise...but I'm more interested in Halloween 3 VHS review!!! Awesome work Lee... your the man!!! 💀🎃

I like when Michael is sitting in the rocking chair and then gets up with that silly mask on

I totally feel you on this one. My family never watched horror movies because we were always sci-fi when I grew up, so I didn’t get Introduced to these until my mid 20s. This was my first film in the slasher genre(I had the double feature 4/5 dvd), and I LOVE this one. It’s a tie with the original for my favorite. It’s probably the one I’ve watched and think of most. EXCELLENT review!

Love the opening I'm watching it right now so I had to come to your review hahahahah I love Michael lol

The best atmosphere in all the Halloween movies. Great video Lee. This was the best feel vibe ambience it was the best . loved Rachel and Jamie. The sheriff Loomis. Just wish they would of just had the same mask from Halloween 1978. And the actor who played him George Wilbur would of been a smaller actor not 6 foot 4. 5 11 at the most. But it still is a great film great vibe great Halloween look. Awesome. Shape on!!! Good video.

Halloween 4 does fall back into the template of the first film but that's a good thing about it. The charicters are the most likeable in the franchise & they all band together to do the smart thing. Overall, a great sequel.

The ending of this movie reminded me of the end of Friday the 13th Part V when Tommy holds up the knife & wearing the Jason Hockey Mask

Love the Snake Shirt ✌ and the reviews

Great video mate. I absolutely adore Halloween 4. I think much like Jason Lives in the Friday the 13th franchise this is the feel good one. The one you could show someone who isn’t a fan of these films and they’d have a great time.

I'm actually going to watch this this weekend. :)

What a great sequel

Great review Lee. Halloween 4 was always one my favorite horror sequels, and in my opinion, it's one of the best Halloween films. Only thing that sucks is how next film fucked up great opportunity for another good sequel, possibly with Jamie as villain.

I agree with your views on the topic! Big fan of the franchise

I guess you could say that Halloween 4 is the most important one for me as well, it was the first Halloween movie I ever saw, staying over at a friend's house when I was 12 years old. I always go back to this one. It got me hooked on the series.

Halloween 4 has the most chilling openings in the entire franchise

your review made me want to watch this movie I'm not a big Michael Myers fan I'm into Jason having the same name and all lol but the way u talked about it made it sound fun

H4 is probably my favourite Halloween film after the first 2 - I love it that much

My FAVORITE Halloween Movie, I wouldn't say better than thee Original as a Sequel but as a Stand-Alone movie I would say yes.

I loved this movie too. My older brother took my younger brother and I to see Halloween 2 when I was really young. It was a Friday the 13th and my Mom was in the hospital at the time. It scared the crap out of me. It gave me nightmares and I loved it. I got to see H 4 when it came out, I was 18 then and it just cemented this as my new addiction in life. I have been obsessed with the franchise since then.

best intro for his explosive comeback..my favorite

. . . This video, and this channel . . . HIGHLY UNDERRATED . . .

This is definitely one of the better sequels in the franchise, my third favorite sequel in the franchise behind Halloween 6 and Halloween 3

I thought Halloween 4 was the the most scariest of all the sequels they took Michael Myers to another level just the thought of him wanting to harm a innocent little girl is pure evil.

My list is strange haha 1. Halloween 2. Halloween 4 3. Halloween 2 4. Halloween 6 5. Halloween 3 6. H2 7. Halloween (remake) 8. Halloween H20 9. Halloween 5 10. Halloween: Busta Rhymes

Sick snake t-shirt great man

One of my favorite movies ever

I remember this movie being referenced on Family Guy once, so I decided to watch it. It’s been awhile and I don’t remember being that good, just that it was really entertaining and Danielle Harris’ performance. But after this review Drumdum, I may revisit it as well.

Sorry that I'm late to the party (Seeing the video was posted last year.) When I first saw Halloween 4 I loved it. Admittedly, it's still a guilty pleasure movie watch for me. I saw Halloween 2 first from the entire Halloween catalog. I found out H2 was a sequel and immediately sought out the 1st one. I then found out there was a 3rd one in the series. I watched it and I didn't mind the 3rd one, but without Michael Myers it killed my interest (Now, I believe it is a great movie and I watch it every Halloween.) I moved on to H4 after H3 and felt that the story was the best part of the film. I loved how it felt from scene to scene, the characters were believable, and it truly gave me a terrifying feeling thinking Michael was back towards the end. The twist that it's Jamie was great. However, with that said, there is one thing I CANNOT shake from my mind, and that's the way Michael Myers stands and moves. It isn't the mask. The mask for all intent and purpose fits this movie well, but Michael is STIFF. I audibly laughed when I saw him because he stands just like Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd) in Addams Family 2. The scene where after he's brainwashed by Debbie and he's standing out in the driveway with his shoulder tense, no visible neck, and he's weird that ridiculous wig and white blazer. That's how I saw Michael the first entire watch-through of H4. I try not to think about it when I pop it on. Towards the end of H4 he loosens up a bit, but I will never not see Uncle Fester as Michael Myers in H4. After all of that, like I said, H4 is a guilty pleasure movie for me. Between H4 and Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, when I can't find something to watch I'll usually put on one or the other.

I love this film. one my all time faves. such a great bookend to 1 & 2. and the last one that scared me.

Watching this again.. Just because... And honestly.. This is my favorite in the franchise! I watch it every year. The mask is the most different then the others but I was like 6 when I first saw this and I really didn't know any better at the time.. So it dosent bother me one bit.. Gay review.. Maybe we can get a revisited 2 this Halloween 🎃

Halloween 4. What can I say? The first time I watched it I was captivated from beginning to end, and it stayed in my mind for weeks afterward… I never expected that of the fourth film, in any franchise…

Great rewiew as alway! I hope you'll revisit H20 next
