While Trick-or-treating Rachel loses Jamie in a group of kids. Michael causes a power failure by throwing Bucky into a transformer. Jamie finally finds Rachel, and Meeker and Loomis find the girls. Meeker takes the girls back to his house and radios Deputy Logan to come from the Corruthers house where he had been waiting for the girls to come home. Unknown to Logan, Michael had snuck into his car.
When Meeker, Loomis, and the girls get to the house they come across Meeker's daughter having sex with Rachel's boyfriend. They secure the house, not knowing that Michael was already in the house, and arm the men with riffles. Rachel uses Meeker's short wave radio to call the state police, while Meeker and Loomis go out looking for Michael.
Rachel brings Jamie up stairs to rest. While Sherif Meeker's daughter Kelly brings coffee to Deputy Logan and finds him dead, Myers kills her. Brad, Rachel's boyfriend sees this and tries to shoot Michael, but misses and dies by Myers' hands.
Rachel and Jamie escape to the attic and then on to the roof only to be followed my Michael. Jamie climbs down to the ground and Rachel gets thrown off the roof by Michael. Jamie thinks she is dead and takes off towards the school where Michael stalks her until Rachel knocks him out with a fire extinguisher.
Loomis, Meeker, and the hillbillies show up. The hillbillies take Rachel and Jamie to the state police barracks. In the confusion Michael climbs under the hillbillies truck. On their way to the barracks Michael climbs up on the truck and kills all the hillbillies. Rachel takes control of the truck and runs down Michael. When the state police arrive Jamie walks over to her uncle and holds his hand, just then Michael raises his knife to stab Jamie. Then all the police blast Michael Myers into a whole and blow him up with dynamite.
Later that night Jamie's adopted mothers is starting her a bath, and Jamie stabs her with a pair of scissors.
The movie ends with Jamie holding the bloody knife, with the same blank look on her face that Michael had in 1963. |
