Introducing his long lost niece, Jamie Lloyd, this sparked the beginning of what came to be known as the Thorn Trilogy. Does Halloween 4 deliver the goods with Michael's return or should The Shape have stayed buried?

Halloween, Halloween II, and Halloween IV make the perfect trilogy. Evil never dies.
FACTS🎃🍁🍂🔪
Perfectly said!
In my collect that is how I have it. The ending of H4 does not mean the horror continues. You can just think that Jamie has to be commited and Loomis as well. Kinda a full circle. Halloween started with a kid killing and the final movie ends with a kid killing.
Yep.
Halloween 4 is dog shit
As far as the blonde Michael, I think the reasoning was because the production was so rushed that it was just a blooper that slipped through the cracks. But...I actually have a theory that it was actually Ben Tramer in that scene! Loomis returning to Haddonfield angered the spirit of Ben so much that he was temporarily resurrected so he could beat the shit out of Dr. Loomis for getting him killed in part 2. haha
Apparently some where I read or watched. Apparently that was a reshoot and they had lost the mask
ben tramer is scarier than micheal in this film
Stayed up waiting for this, love your work Cody!
I love the opening to Halloween 4. Really captures Halloween. From the scarecrow to the leaves and winds. My favorite opening in all the series.
I love Halloween IV I didn’t see it til many years after. But when I did I loved it. Sure it’s got some flaws but what sequel hasn’t? It’s got so much great stuff and a hell of a Halloween atmosphere. The mask didn’t ever really bother me tbh. It’s a damn site better than the mask we get in the next one.
21:54-22:14 That shit had me dying
Great review!!! This is one of the better sequels of the series and yeah i agree that mask is pretty rough...
Well 20 years did pass. So the mask in stores would change?
Nah...you cant use logic to excuse shitty costume production
@@CodyLeachYT I agree with most of what you mentioned. But the mask and jumpsuit never botherd me.
2 gentlemen played Michael Myers in this film StuntMan Actors Tom Morga & George P. Wilbur.
Cody believe it or not but that is the Shatner mask, the story is they had new masks made using the same mold except when they arrived the skin was pink and blond hair so they had to spray paint them white and fix the hair color and they put to much white and covered up the features! The story with the blonde hair mask is they had been shooting all night and everyone was exhausted and someone went to the wardrobe trailer and graved a unaltered mask by mistake and everyone was so tired and nobody caught it!
I said in the video that it was the Shatner mask
Guess I heard it wrong sorry!
I always hated the mask and I was surprised to find out that they used the Shatner mask and painted it like the original.. yet somehow they made it look awful.
I don't know if it's the type of paint or what but it makes the face look way too smooth and takes out the detail. And they didn't do the hair for some reason.
And did you know that they actually ordered several masks, so they definitely had the opportunity to start again.
That's also where the blonde mask comes from. They lost the main mask, which was the only one they Painted. So they did a couple of shots with the blonde mask, before finding the main one again.
But I don't understand how an independent film that took 20 days to shoot could do the mask a thousand times better than a big budget film made 10 years later.
I know your busy with Halloween but was you going to review Venom ?
No too busy I liked the movie though.
Halloween 4 is my favorite Halloween sequel
I am surprised!! I really really enjoyed this movie! Super underrated
I my opinion, Rachel is to Jamie what Kyle is to Andy in child’s play 2.
Great Review.
I HATE the mask too, but I forgive it because storywise the original melted in 2.
I love Halloween 4....... but GOD DAMN... that mask.... I have to agree 100%. And it looks like he is wearing some sort of shoulder pads or something through the movie. I’m on par with Lee on Halloween. But I HATE that mask. It’s the paint, the eye holes and the biggest fuck up is the hair. He has damn side burns lol
They made the actor wear hockey or football pads
Cody Leach it’s noticeable. For that reason alone (the look of Michael) I watch 6 over 4.
Great review 👌🏿
Great video man! The mask from the movie poster looks awesome, the actual mask from the movie looks too bland and makes him look just dumbed down. I think had they just fixed his eyebrows slanted to make him look a little angry, it would have worked.
Great Halloween t shirt
Can you review the Psycho movies?
I noticed that this is his only halloween movie review that doesnt have the year the movie came out added to the upload title
Thanks for letting me know
I’m not gonna bash on the opinion. But to me the h4 mask is the reason I love it so much, yes I said it. Trick or Treats mask for it is their most accurate by far.
Somehow, there was a Michael Myers-esque mask in that store
Best sequel in the franchise.
If the mask would have been better, even the bandage mask or something, i swear would be my no1 of this franchise!
This is the best of the Thorn trilogy, with exception of his mask which was the shits.
Agree on the mask it’s horrible and it drives me as crazy as it does you. Solid sequel as well
LOL! 26:16...the mask on the cover doesn't AT ALL match the mask in the movie. At 26:16 you can compare them side by side. WTF
Tom Tucker is such a underrated Michael Myers
Didnt George Wilbur play him in 4 as well
Lmao I get it
Yes that was his stage name his real name tom tucker is on the news in quohog Rhode Island
@@supersaiyandemonfrankiefac6414 beat me to it
^^^^ lmaoooo
This is my favorite of the Halloween sequels, flaws and all. The chilly, fall atmosphere really makes this installment a stand out for me and screams Halloween (at least for someone that grew up in upstate NY). Love the oranges and yellows of the day scenes and the deep blues of the night scenes. I will concede the mask is not great but always forgave it since the movie clearly shows it is not the same mask as the original when Myers snags it off a display at the convenience store. Plus we do not know if Myers still has the bandages on underneath the mask which could be stretching the mask losing the contours and details. (I am really reaching on this excuse :) )
Imo h4 mask doesnt try to be scary, the mask almost has an apathetic smile or something. H5 looks angry. H6 is like h1 and h2
Born and raised in upstate NY. Syracuse area so I feel ya!
Halloween 4 probably has one of my favorite mask
I watch Halloween 4 so many times during the year, mainly because it's a sequel done right. The charicters, story, theme & overall presentation is top grade. Dwight Little & Alan McElroy did a great job reviving Micheal Myers. This one is a sequel that's really entertaining throughout.
This is a year to late but totally agree with you! This sequel has the best characters and utilization of Loomis in the series. I pretend that Halloween,Halloween 2, and 4 are a trilogy and then the series skips over to 2018.
It’s just depressing how 5 and 6 shit all over everything in 4.
@@mtb5431 I can understand why Halloween 6 isn't a favorite beyond the Brother Cain song. Halloween 5 was the one with Dr Loomis acting uncharicteristically harsh toward Jamie. Liked Tina in that film.
Joe Biden was the BOOGEYMAN
Halloween 4 is straight trash specifically the storyline anyways.
Agreed...Kelly Meeker is the biggest tease!
She wasn't gonna give out any pussy
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers is a decent enough Slasher-Sequel and a good return to the form of the first two Halloween Movies.
The Standouts for me in this movie are obviously Donald Pleasance, reprising his role as Dr. Loomis, Danielle Harris as Jamie Lloyd and Ellie Cornell as Rachel. The Kills are great in this one and very creative and the ending of this movie is probably one of the most badass and shocking endings I saw in a horror movie.
The only negative I have with H4 is the terrible Michael Myers Mask.
Horrormaster13 I know a lot of people couldn’t stand the mask. When you compare it with the first Halloween and yea it is not the great. They just couldn’t seem to get the mask right after Halloween II.
Also this film has the best movie ending of all time
No doubt one of the best endings in the franchise
Lol, perhaps it was the only movie that you´ve ever watched...
4:45 I wouldn't have minded seeing Michael killing those kids who were tormenting Jamie because of him being her uncle and her mother Laurie being dead. Jamie and Rachel's adopted sister relationship is one of my favourite parts of this film. They're not blood related but you can see they're as close as blood regardless.
Xehanort10 hell yeah they was like Jamie’s a orphan and Jamie’s uncles the boogie man should’ve got they ass or they parents
That scene always bugs me, kids can be assholes but those kinds of vindictive assholes? It always seemed over the top to me.
That mask is so bad that they used the original mask from the first movie for the cover on the dvd. Well actually if ya took the "4" out of the title and saw it in the shop you'd think it was the original Halloween movie cause every image is from the first movie! LAAAAAZY!
His shoulders was weird as well lol
The theatrical poster in 1988 for this movie was the same as the later VHS/DVD/BLU-RAY covers
The only part of Halloween 4 that bugs me is that stupid mask. Like you said Cody, the thing that irritates the F outta me is the inconsistency with Michael's mask. Love the franchise but damn it would be so much better if they would get the mask's right. Dr. Loomis has a lot of great lines in Halloween 4!
this is one of those love/hate movies. I totally agree with your review cody! I love this movie but I can clearly see the flaws lol
michael greene
I used to love it but I've grown to hate it. It mostly has to do with the mask, and the lame score.
I cant argue that mask is bad. better then the 5th one but seriously eyebrows on a mask lmao
There were no flaws
Dude, my drink leaked out my mouth when you showed that clip of Loomis following the Kelly clip. "No....NOOO!" XD hahaha.
Hahaha
*I enjoy H4. your backgrounds are always the best. great review mate :)*
Thanks a lot
HATE the shoulder pads on Michael. That's really my only gripe about the movie lol
It's a shame Ellie Cornell didn't become a big star. She is a very talented actress and I think she gave the best performance of anybody in the film. I was furious when they killed her off in the first 15 minutes of Halloween V.
I don't know why, but I really like the Halloween 4 mask.
Same I want that mask
It is my favorite mask to! Go pre order at Trick Or Treat Studios for $59.99!!
It's better than the shitty one in part 5
Asher Birch Definitely.
My theory is this: we all love the MM mask for the spooky absence of any features or emotions, right? Still the first one was still a little weathered n evil-looking. This one is 200% blank and expressionless to the point of looking like a dummy''s face. In a way it's The Shape turned up to 11. You're probably reacting to that, despite the Internet telling you it totally sucks.
No matter how many times I watch H4, I always get thrown off in that shotgun kill scene when the theme song goes from 5/4 to 4/4.
What's really funny about cutting out Kelly's nude scenes, Kathleen Kinmont the actress, is no stranger to nudity. Fraternity Vacation, Sweet Justice, Bride of Re-Animator, Rush Week, The Art of Dying, Night of the Warrior, C.I.A. Code Name: Alexa, The Corporate Ladder, and Dead of Night all have nude scenes with her.
Yeah seriously what the fuck
I watch a lot of RUclips horror reviews and I never heard anyone go so deep into mentioning Jamie's emotional state. Great review.
Thank you
I think it's a shame they didn't follow through with this sending because wanted in implies is so chilling
When Jamie touched Michael the evil passed from Michael to her allowing him to die that this is part of a never-ending cycle at some point the evil will pass from her to someone else
You can't kill damnation mr. It don't die like a man
You are so right about the mask. It has a short, child's nose and friendly eyebrows. It is too smooth as well. I agree with you about Daniel Harris. She was such a fantastic child actress. It seems that she became self conscious with age. She was exceptionally good in this. I really enjoy watching this one - don't care what the critics say.
Im pretty sure the blond mask made it in due to reshoots and selections of an unpainted mask. But i didnt know this was the original shatner mask. Thats even fucking worse
The stepmothers scream and loomis' reaction on the stairs is so damn good..and no one ever talks about the bandage mask but it is creepy!
GREAT MOVIE BUT THE MASK WAS AWFUL!!!
JM HorrorGuy lol bro have u seen h20 now that’s masks was awful
Halloween, Halloween 2 and 4 are the best Halloweens tbh the new movie looks promising as well.
dwayne frierson H20 is the best
And Halloween 5
@@waluiginumberone4962 H20 was mediocre
@Miguel GC Gamer No Halloween 5 was bad, Halloween 6 was decent...
@@98izzark69 Halloween H20 is the best (Not as good as 1 but thats obvious) Halloween II is in 3rd best. Resurrection Was the worst but not as bad as peaple say. Halloween 2018 was pretty good!
BTW- Halloween 4 is the 4th best.
Michael looked like darkman in those bandages at the gas station lol the Sam raimi film
Watching “Dream Warriors” and this review at the same time lol
Wow what a package
Actually they ordered the mask from the same company that made the original Shatner mask they altered and even had a custom job it was meant to look like the Myers mask
But someone at the company got the wires crossed and they delivered them the pink mask with the blond hair that overly painted mask was because they were not given enough time to redo the mask properly
The mask is absolutely atrocious in this film
There are worse, but would have been better if they just used the bandage mask!
I think the original mask used in both 1 and 2, the 6 mask and the new film's mask are the only good ones.
Blond hair lol that has always bugged me even as a kid i was like WTF! If they would have done the mask right this one could have been remembered as one of the best i mean like top 2 or 3 .
Awful mask worse in the franchise
Agree. As soon as I saw the mask, I turned the film off.
That mask ranges from looking worried to slightly startled. Loomis's facial scars also look different in practically every scene. His final scene is great though...he gives the impression of a man who's given over to total despair. He really feels broken.
You should watch the "Halloween 60" parody trailer on RUclips. It's hilarious!
Seen that its hilarious! but there are some fans that dont find it funny lol.
Saw it yesterday lmao
CryptoBot thanks for that dude, freaking hilarious!
Yes, I loved that one myself.
My favorite Halloween sequel!
You touched up well on the intelligence of Michael. Just like the 1st film. Instead of going straight for Laurie he kills her friends first and draws her into the house to where it's just them 2 left
Apparently they did shoot nudity in THAT scene but for whatever reason they decided to cut it out, like WTF!?
Haha bastards!!!
Finally, one of my favourite movies in the franchise.
Your a hater of halloween 3
The original is the best
ayden Baldwin Well for one, I do not ‘’hate’’ Halloween 3 infact I think it’s a fantastic movie that is underrated. And saying the original is the best, is your opinion not mine I like the original a lot as it is a classic but the first couple of sequels I also like. So before making assumptions I suggest, keeping an open mind.
I saw this movie when it first came out at the theater. I was so disappointed in it. My main thing was that mask!! And he looked like he had football padding under his suit. But I still watched it every year because I love Michael. Tried to watch it again just a few weeks ago with an open mind and I still hate the mask and those damned pads BUT I have to say I really enjoyed it this time around. It is saturated with Fall and I think Danielle Harris was great in it. Oh and I said on your review of Scream 4 that is was my least favorite but I would give it another try because so many people love it so much. I have to say, I really enjoyed it!! It is a really solid movie. Don't know if my ranking of the franchise changed BUT I don't hate it now. :)
Ya mask sucked and the shoulder pads lol wtf
Halloween 4 is probably my favorite film in the franchise, for a lot of reasons. I agree with you, Cody, that the characters in this one are more enjoyable and that Dr. Loomis has more zeal in this one than in any of the other ones. And hell yeah, the kills are the shit-- the paramedic who gets Michael's thumb jammed into his forehead; the city worker who gets thrown into the transformer; Kelly getting impaled with a fucking shotgun; Grady getting his skull crushed... good shit. Plus, I had the luxury of seeing this movie when it first hit video, so yes, the ending freaked me out. I disagree, however, about the mask. Call me crazy but I actually don't mind the look of the mask in this one. I don't think it was meant to look exactly like the so-called Shattner mask from the previous films. I think they made it different on purpose (this time), because Michael had to get a new mask sense his old one burned up in part 2, and what are the odds that he would just randomly pick one that looked exactly the same? But all that aside, I enjoyed your review as usual, and I'm glad that you got to enjoy this movie, even if it's just a little bit. Keep em coming, homeboy.
Am I the only one who likes the ending??
Lol no...fans love that ending
@@CodyLeachYT
Really? I heard a lot of people hate that ending. I guess I haven't been keeping up
I mean it's not the greatest of endings. If we pretend that there wasn't a 5th this ending is gold. The issue is we know there's a 5th and it takes away that great end feel. This ending though is better than 5th, 6th, and certainly Resurrection.
Diego Larios I flippin loved that ending!
I think it's best ending in any Halloween film ever made
Bro, I’m so glad you said that about that scene with Kelly. Them thangs were so big you could see them from the back lol.
She has an amazing body and is so tall and did modeling. She reminds of Kirsten Baker from Friday the 13 Part 2, you know the girl in the Jean shorts with the perfect ass. At least we got to see the goods and a quick full frontal shot, nice! She was also a model.
I love Halloween 4. George P Wilbur was great as Michael (the fourth best Michael Myers) Danielle Harris was adorable as Jamie and Donald Pleasence's Dr. Loomis was awesome! The only thing that i hate about H4, is the mask.
This is my second favorite. The characters are great and the Michael Myers was great. I actually like the H4 mask as well
I love Halloween 4 The Return Of Michael Myers!!! It's one of my favorite sequels in the franchise!! It is such a great horror movie! I watch it every year on halloween
Love your movie reviews great sequel Danielle Harris was wonderful and Ellie Cornell love your shirt 🖒🖒
22:10 , I had the same reaction when I first watch this scene lol. Such HUGE missed opportunities :(
Halloween 4 was the first one I ever saw. The thing that made it absolutely terrifying to me was the fact that I was around Jamie's age in the movie when I saw it and that was the first time I ever saw a horror movie villain actually chasing a kid around my age and made me go "oh shit, this could happen to ME!!"
Michael looked awesome in Halloween 4 with the burn tracks on his hands
Just binging your old videos to get my daily Cody Leach fix. Your Halloween and Friday review series’ are my favorite. I watch them at least once a month
Thanks a lot man. I had so much fun making those. They're still the review series I'm most proud of. Gonna be hard to top that Halloween series with the opening narrative.
@@CodyLeachYT yeah I know what you mean. It's bittersweet as a fan because I love those review series' you've done, but it sucks knowing there most likely won't be more halloween review series in the future haha. maybe after the new movies come out but you know what I mean. Anywho, happy new year boss, thanks for all that you do
I really love your intros to these reviews.
Come on she is great Daniel Harris grew up to be a hottie. She should of been laurie in the Rob Zombie's one instead of the friend. So she had a great early start, great kid performance. Too bad but she could still go, hope she gets a cameo in the new one.
She apparently wanted a role in the new film but they weren't interested. Now whether that's true or not or they just said it to hide the fact that she cameos in it somewhere I don't know. Her as Annie and Brad Dourif as Brackett are the only 2 good performances in Rob Zombie's Halloween films IMO.
Slasher In Suits one of those things I had a crush on her as a kid since we’re the same age. I look her up now & I’m like DAMN she went from cute to Hot as hell!
M Da Martian fucking right you can never tell with child actors but she grew up hot as hell for sure.
This is my favorite one in the franchise
I LOVE this movie. But not only is the mask in this HORRENDOUS, those shoulder pads as well are BADDD! This would've been amazing with the original mask, cause honestly the mask is my only flaw with this sequel. Great reviews Cody!
"That little bit of paint fucked the mask up " made me laugh out loud!!
At 22:11 I died 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If the mask was the the same from the original would this be your favorite sequel?
It would be higher up the list but no
I friggin love this movie. It's personally my favorite sequel.
However, there is one fuckin problem that's sticks out like a sore thumb. The mask, while I think it actually looks pretty good in some shots (in my opinion), it's pretty shitty (especially that fuckin pink mask with blond hair), and the way Michael looks in some shots (like when he stands up and sometimes he looks like he's wearing hockey pads and shit. And there are a bunch of little nitpicking problems I have. But I love a lot of things in this movie. Donald Pleasence does a great job as Loomis, and I love Ellie Cornell and Danielle Harris as Rachel and Jamie. And I love the overall feel of the movie. It's suspenseful and the cinematography is great. And I actually kinda like the drunk dudes and the rest of the side characters are great and feel like the have a purpose. And I love the ending with Jamie becoming evil.
I love this fuckin movie and I give it an 8.5/10
I love Halloween 4 but All of my friends / ex boo thing hated it
I hate this movie
This was a good movie, the one thing that bugged me was how poor the mask was, the cover art mask was 10 times better for some reason. I wrote this before reaching the same conclusion you did haha
I’ve always liked the mask and I’ve never understood the hate for it. The Shape himself is portrayed excellently close to how he was in the original albeit more aggressive, and he stole a new mask from (presumably) the same discount store in town. At least the filmmakers aren’t expecting the audience to believe that it’s the same mask from the previous installment, like Halloween 5 and even the producers cut of Halloween 6 did.
Halloween 4 actually addresses that it’s just another simple cheap expressionless mask he stole and for me it’s just always fit the vibe of the film.
h20 and H4 probably have the worst masks in the whole series. Halloween 1978 Halloween 2007 and Halloween 2018 top 3 masks
That mask is the best! I dont understand the hate. Its completely emotionless and expressionless. Makes michael more of a force of nature and less of a person. Ive always been more frightened by this mask than any of them. Guess im the only one
No I'm with you
Dude what a coincidence I’m actually watching Halloween 5 The Revenge Of Michael Myers right now sucks that that review didn’t come out right now I was like wow a Halloween review right when I’m watching a Halloween film can’t wait for next Friday I get to escape being parents with my bf and go see the new film 😂
Wait you didn’t like the guy who explained Halloween 1 and 2 I thought it was a pretty cool scene
I watched pt 5 yesterday liked it little bit lol but the whole Tina storyline threw me off like was she suppose to be Rachel 2.0 and that whole psychic thingy really but the ending made me said MICHAEL WON SMH
the Donn I loved Halloween 4 my personal favorite is H20
the Donn Halloween 2 yes Halloween 1 no
the Donn no me and my boyfriend are going next Friday
To be honest Jamie is much better than Rachel. So I didn't care that Rachel was killed off early in 5. Jamie is the star in 4 and 5. Not Rachel.
@Allahja Flowers the reason for Michael's return because he overheard that he has a niece. And the niece was Jamie. Not Rachel.
@Allahja Flowers oh okay.
I have to agree. Even when i first saw Halloween 5.. You just fu*king knew Rachel was probably not gonna make through another film. It's a slasher franchise, and the Child was definitely the main character in the late 80's era.
LilStory 504 Randy from Scream 2
Rachel's my favorite.
My Dad took me to see this in '88... wow I'm old.
22:13 LOL btw why didn’t you like the cop at the beginning I thought it was kind of cool they talked about what happened in Halloween and Halloween 2...
It was just the delivery it just seemed so hokey to me.
I hated the mask also, and the portrayal was a little to stiff for me . I also wish the score was recycled better.
This is my favourite in the whole franchise, H281 is 2nd and the original is 3rd.
Absolutely love this movie especially for the ending and the atmosphere till 5 ruined it with Tina.
Love Halloween 4. This is the film that got me into horror as a kid. But yeah. The mask is bad. But the movie's great.
I always thought they missed an opportunity to tie 3 into the Thorn trilogy
Yeah I could see it working
I feel like the reason the mask is so frustrating is because Halloween 4 had the potential to be great on every level. To me, the H4 mask looks overly polished, even the hair. The mask in the original Halloween is kinda dingy with messy hair. It looked like an accurate portrayal of what was underneath; a blank, mentally unhinged and/or supernatural killer. Having said that, this is still my favorite sequel. Great review!
Oh and I can't stand Jamie Lee Curtis she's an aweful actress imo
Excellent review Mr. Leach, I totally agree with you on the mask. From the "making of" the costume designer said the masks were ordered from Don Post Studios who made the original Shatner mask but they came in the day of shooting with peach/pink skin and blonde/white hair. It was then spray painted white hence the loss of definition and bumpy texture.
