Review: Halloween 5 takes place one year after Halloween 4, with young Jamie (Danielle Harris) now able to see things through Michael's eyes. This psychic ability helps Loomis to track Myers, but things aren't easy. Though not as powerful as the fourth entry in the series Halloween 5 still manages to be better than most of the Halloween immitators. It makes a good complimentary piece to Part 4, and also introduces a new character: The Man In Black.
The film was made immediately following the success of the fourth entry, but doesn't quite live up to its predecessors. The series is slowly weakening over time, as demonstrated by this installment. However, Halloween 5 is still a Halloween movie, and a good one at that.
