About Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers in brief
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers is a 1988 American slasher film directed by Dwight H. Little, written by Alan B. McElroy, and starring Donald Pleasence, Ellie Cornell, and Danielle Harris. Michael Myers returns to Haddonfield to kill his niece Jamie Lloyd, the daughter of Laurie Strode, with his former psychiatrist Dr. Sam Loomis again pursuing him. Released in the United States on October 21, 1988, Halloween 4 grossed USD 17. 8 million domestically on a budget of USD 5 million, and received mostly negative reviews from critics. It is a direct sequel to Halloween II, ignoring the events of Season of the Witch, which took place in a different continuity from the first two films. The film, much like the series in general, has developed a strong cult following since its release. It was originally intended to be a ghost story, but after the poor reception of Halloween III due to not being a continuation of Michael’s story, the film reintroduced him, and he has remained the main antagonist of the series ever since. A direct sequel, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, was released one year later. The movie was released on October 31, 1989, and was a box office success, grossing more than $30 million in the U.S. and over $50 million worldwide. It has since become one of the most popular slasher films of all time, with a cult following of more than 1.5 million people on Facebook and over 1.6 million on YouTube.
The sequel to the film, Halloween 6, was also released in 1989, but was not as well-received as the previous two films in the series. The third and fourth films were released in 1991 and 1992. The fourth, Halloween 7, and Halloween 8, were both released in 1994. The fifth, Halloween 9, and the sixth, Halloween 10, were all released in 1995. The last two were released on September 28, 1995, and October 28, 1996. The final film was Halloween 11, 1995. All of the films have been re-released on Blu-ray and DVD in the US and the UK, with the exception of Halloween 10: Season of The Witch, where the US release was delayed due to the release of the second film. The US release of Halloween 11: season 2 of the Halloween series has been delayed until October 26, 2015. The UK release is scheduled for October 29, 2015, but the UK release date has been pushed back to October 30, 2016. The U.K. release date for Halloween 11 has yet to be announced. The United States release date of Halloween 12: October 27, 2016, has not yet been announced. It will also be released in the UK on October 28. The European release date is October 29. The Australian release date will be October 30th, 2017, and it will be the same day as the American release.
