Why it’s HorroRated
Halloween 4 is a solid return to form after the franchise's weird detour in Season of the Witch. Danielle Harris as young Jamie Lloyd gives the film an emotional anchor it really needed and Michael feels like a real threat again. Not as tight as the original but a respectable entry that remembers what made the character work.
Synopsis
Ten years after Haddonfield, Michael escapes a transfer and goes back with a new target. Danielle Harris as young Jamie Lloyd gives the film an emotional anchor the series badly needed, and Michael feels like a real threat again. A respectable return that remembers what made the character work.
