Another sequel, less than a year later, to what was supposed to be The Final Chapter is conceptually ridiculous. The actual movie; this is part five of what has become the Friday The 13th series; is even worse. It reverts to the campiness of Part 3; corny comedy and annoying characterization; but without a thrilling ending to balance it out.

![video review : Halloween 4 [ The Return Of Michael Myers ]](https://marcellee.com/posts/76912.jpg)
Letting the world know in the subtitle that Michael Myers is back has more to do with marketing than the art of storytelling. Halloween 3 is a travesty to the series. 4 attempts a turn around. While it is better than Season Of The Witch, it’s a feeble effort.
The Return Of Michael Myers, which has the Evil killer going after Laurie Strode’s daughter; the child’s mother and father are apparently dead; comes across like a cheap made-for-TV knockoff. Even Michael’s mask is less menacing this time around.
