\u201cHalloween is more than just a film.

John Carpenter\u2019s original horror classic paved the way for the Golden Age of Slashers in the 1980s, the film introducing Jamie Lee Curtis as iconic final girl Laurie Strode. The film begins on Halloween night in 1963 with six-year old Michael Myers brutally murdering his 17-year old sister, Judith. He was sentenced and locked away for 15 years. But on October 30, 1978, a 21-year old Michael Myers steals a car and escapes Smith\u2019s Grove. He returns to his quiet hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois, where he looks for his next victims\u2026<\/p>\n

Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers was released nearly a decade later in 1988. The apparently comatose Michael Myers (George P. Wilbur) is being transferred from one hospital to another, but he wakes up when the ambulance crew talk about his surviving niece, Jamie (Danielle Harris). After slaughtering his attendants, Myers sets out to find his one living relative who is, fortunately, being cared for by a kind and resourceful foster sister named Rachel (Ellie Cornell). Meanwhile, the ever-cautious Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) remains on the killer\u2019s path.<\/p>\n

And then in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, Michael Myers (Donald L. Shanks) awakens from a year-long coma and stalks his way back to his small hometown in Illinois, intent on killing his niece, Jamie (Danielle Harris), who has been confined to a mental institution since Michael\u2019s last attempt to slay her. Suspecting a psychic link between Michael and Jamie, psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis (Donald Pleasence) joins forces with Sheriff Ben Meeker (Beau Starr) and attempts to stop Michael\u2019s latest rampage.<\/p>\n
