Just re-watched Halloween's 3-5. Here's my thoughts:
Halloween 3 is so fucking bizarre. Killer robots! Stonehenge! Masks that melt your head and turn it into insects & snakes! Tom Atkins meeting some dead guy's daughter, then promptly making the sex with her! I don't what the fuck anyone was thinking with this movie, but I love it.
Halloween 4: So this may be my second favorite Mike Myers Halloween film after the original. I love how the cops actually listen to Loomis, instead of what most horror sequels would have done. And having the rednecks go hunting for him is great. People actually make smart decisions in the movie! There's a scene where Michael is somewhere in a school at night when the rednecks show up. They debate for a few minutes whether they should go in, and they actually decide not to! Michael ends up hiding under their truck and murdering them all anyway, but at least they tried! And the ending with Jamie touching her uncle only to have his evil passed on to her is neat! I'm totally down with a female killer in the next one, unless they pull a Tommy Jarvis on us and that doesn't really go anywhere. No way they would do that...
Halloween 5: Well, they fucking did that. Jamie is now just a freaked out mute with a psychic connection to her still alive uncle. The characters all suck and everything takes forever and some dude with boots shows up to do nothing until the end when he assists Michael with escaping prison. Oh, him and Michael both have the same tattoo too, so there's that. This movie is a bland-as-shit-garbage-heap. And I think the next one was even worse.
