Wow! Such a good movie.

Admirable film.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I don't see why this movie got such a low rating on IMBD. I actually liked Halloween 5 a little more than 4. While part 4 was still good, I found 5 to be overall more fun and more adventures with how the plot develops. Plus this one has a more darker and scary feel to it, and it actually scared me. In this one, Jamie Loyd, Michael's niece, is mute and is in a children's care center. But she also has psychological connections with her uncle. I know it sounds a bit cheezy, but it actually plays out quite well. There is some serious tense and suspenseful scenes, in which Jamie is trying to warn people that Michael is about to kill someone, but cannot due to her muteness. This one is more campy and fun and felt more true to the slasher genre than the previous. It's also quite an exciting ride as we follow Michael and Jamie around Hadonfield and eventually to Michael's old house in a great climax! Definitely recommend this one to any Halloween or horror fan.

It's one year later after the events of Halloween 4. Michael survives the shootings and on October 31st he returns with a vengeance. Lurking and stalking, Jamie, Rachel, and Rachel's friends, Michael forms a plan to lure Jamie out of the children's hospital where events lead up to the confrontation at the Myers house. Halloween 5 is the same insane result that Part 4 was and it gets even more insane when survivors of the previous installment die easier this time and the film starts an entire supernatural element between Michael and his Niece that made no sense and if there's one good thing about both of this installments is Donald Pleasence who does a great job as Dr. Loomis once again but the end result once again is not a memorable or good film in this once good Franchise. (3/10)

It was the right move to release the next "Halloween" film soon after the fourth one. The events that led to the previous film's conclusion, naturally paved the way for the story of "Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers." As before, Donald Pleasence as the slightly unhinged Sam Loomis and Danielle Harris as Jamie are back and they make the film watchable. Ellie Cornell is written out near the beginning, which was a mistake in my opinion. She was a good character in the previous film and relevant to the plot. However, it is left to Pleasence and Harris to carry the movie between them and they do this very well. The story moves one year on after the Halloween of 1988. Jamie is now a patient of Doctor Loomis and she seems to be telepathically linked with Michael Myers, in that she can sense where he is and who he will slain next. This part of the film makes little sense as it isn't fully explained. That applies to the story in general. There is no explanation given as to who the man in the cowboy boots is. We don't see his face and no one mentions him in the script. He simply appears out of nowhere and the audience is expected to take it for granted that the character has some relevance. From my vantage point, he does not. The murder scenes are capably handled and Donald Pleasence gives a typically good performance. Danielle Harris is once again an effective performer and has been promoted to "leading lady" status for this film. It was crucial that the two main characters be played by the same actors, especially as this "Halloween" film comes so soon after the 1988 film. I enjoyed the scenes with Pleasence calling out to Myers in the woods after Jamie have been saved for the time being and also the confrontation between the Doctor and his former patient inside the old Myers residence. Michael Myers looks a bit more physically imposing this time around, which is good. The mask still looks a bit stupid though! The ending left me feeling a bit cheated. The mysterious man in the cowboy boots comes along and rescues Myers and slaughters the entire Haddonfield police department. That is all very well but what about Loomis and Jamie? What happened to them? The former character has vanished without a trace and the latter is left standing in the police department on her own.... Not a bad film at all but it needed a better and more cohesive plot.

Picking up hot off the heels of the action and box office success of 1988's "Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers," the titular masked killer returns with swift vengeance just a year later in "Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers." The film was rushed into production, and brother, does it show. With another director at the helm -- this time French director Dominique Othenin-Girard ("Omen IV: The Awakening") -- and the return of all the major survivors from the previous film, "Halloween 5" keeps continuity but still feels slightly off.It's a year after the events of "Halloween 4." Michael (played by a rather beefy Donald Shanks) has retreated, having survived a blast of gunfire at the hands of the Haddonfield police department. In the wake of his devastation, his poor, innocent niece Jamie (Danielle Harris) has been rendered mute and forever scarred. Once a familiar series of murders start cropping up, Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) presses Jamie -- who now seemingly has a psychic link with Michael - - for information, completely oblivious to the fact that a mysterious man in black is ghosting him the whole time."Halloween 5" isn't a great or even a good movie, but it pretty much hits all the right spots as far as late '80s slashers go, and manages to introduce a few new intriguing elements to the series. Like "4" before, it's another relatively violent affair and the eye of the foreign director certainly gives this one a unique vibe and look. It's a terribly flawed film -- from its plot contrivances to a few annoying characters (oh my god, those cops...) -- but still pretty consistent with what came before. Michael's revenge ultimately isn't as compelling as one would hope, but it's certainly more enjoyable than his future curses and resurrections, respectively.
