60 of 145 · most liked firstMovie Of The Day... Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)
neutral · AI labelView post →Halloween 4 is decent if a bit uninspired and with the goofiest Michael Myers mask of all time. Halloween 5 is easily the worst film of the franchise and I feel pretty confident saying that. Cheap, boring and mean little movie
negative · AI labelView post →I don't want to brag but I still have the original press kits for "Halloween 4" and "Halloween 5" (because I was a member of the press*) [*high school newspaper film critic]
neutral · AI labelView post →Ahhhh, station decay. That's how AMC went from reveling in absolute TCM-esque film nerd shit to showing Halloween 5 three times a day.
neutral · AI labelView post →The most lopsided ratio of "best title sequence relative to overall quality of the film" in the "Halloween" series has gotta be "Halloween 5" (1989).

neutral · AI labelView post →The march continues with #100HorrorMoviesin92Days 76, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Meyers (1989). This was frustrating as parts were very good but more parts were very bad and also creepy. The Meyers as post-highschool creeper dirtbag stuff worked and I would have liked a whole movie of it
neutral · AI labelView post →I know this movie has its fans (in some cases because of the Producer's Cut), but I'm not one of them. Bottom three Hallowen movie here, above only Halloween 5 and Resurrection. #Filmsky #Halloween #Halloween6 #Horrorsky

neutral · AI labelView post →Every Halloween movie should have one scene, like Halloween 5 does, where Michael Myers is unmasked and sheds a single tear
positive · AI labelView post →Out of all the Halloween films to add to the game, Why Halloween 5? which is in my opinion the worst Halloween movie @mvbrat10.bsky.social @nerdobaggins.bsky.social @ryanjrobotham.bsky.social @bvlikeslinguica.bsky.social @gonzaegonza91.bsky.social @scalawagjack.bsky.social @thanosprime.bsky.social
negative · AI labelView post →Movie: Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers Dr. Loomis you crazy, magnificent bastard! I hope to scare my little sister half as much as you scared Jamie in this movie. 😂 This movie is ass though besides that. #filmsky #horrorsky
negative · AI labelView post →Halloween 5 is cheesy as fuck but at least it's a Michael movie that's what I tell myself 😂
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s pretty crazy to think about how from Halloween 5 to Resurrection, Michael Myers’ mask consistently got worse and it took the first Rob Zombie movie to “fix” it. The weathered look rocks and I think it’s great the first DGG film brought that back.

neutral · AI labelView post →Ellie Cornell hasn’t appeared in a Halloween film since Halloween 5, but she remains a fan favorite. Her interview for “Horror in Haddonfield” is destined to be a favorite of readers as well. Order today: www.amazon.com/Horror-Haddo...
neutral · AI labelView post →Halloween 4 is the better movie in pretty much every possible way - yet I enjoyed watching Halloween 5 more. You gotta love movies! 🎃 #MutantFam
positive · AI labelView post →My tremor is extra wobbly today. So i switched to moving files around and playing with Patinkin. But they are even making moving files difficult. So…i’m about to find a movie to watch. Will it be Halloween 5? Maybe not. But…maybe.
neutral · AI labelView post →Thanks goes out to Mcknight’s Movie Time Video Store for my copy of HALLOWEEN 5 📼
neutral · AI labelView post →They're dropping the Myers Halloween 5 skin soon, but I think it's just him? They should do packs with multiple skins from each movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Final Thoughts on Halloween 5: What a hollow sequel. It disrespects even the original film, makes of a mockery of Michael, Loomis, and Rachel, and then shoehorns in the Man in Black because they knew they didn’t have a good film. The only good sequence is the laundry chute. And the score is tinny
negative · AI labelView post →Rewatching Halloween 5 (The Revenge of Michael Myers, a subtitle not in the film), which enraged me in the theatre, and now just seems exceptionally silly. I hated it so much at the time, I skipped the next two, and never learned what the point was to the mysterious "Man in Black" character in 5.
negative · AI labelView post →Halloween 5: the Revenge of Michael Myers. A mean, mean, ugly film. The most gothic and European of the franchise. Makes Michael feel like the lumbering rot at the heart of Haddonfield.
negative · AI labelView post →My ★★ review of Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers on @letterboxd: boxd.it/ll2eF
negative · AI labelView post →September 27 [MOVIE] HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS dir. Dominique Othenin-Girard (1989) I think there are more Michael Myers fakeouts in this film than actual Michael Myers appearances. Score: 1/5
negative · AI labelView post →#239. Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers - 6/10 Objectively worse than Halloween 4, subjectively the best Michael Myers movie since Halloween 1
neutral · AI labelView post →Part 5 of Spectators of Halloween Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989) An average movie that is severely brought down by its ending. I love Pleasence in this I believe this is my favorite Loomis so far. But sucks they killed all my fav characters #halloween #horror

neutral · AI labelView post →Halloween 5 is a film made up of baffling choices, and every subsequent Halloween movie seems to be trying to top it in this regard
negative · AI labelView post →Yeah. Halloween 4 isn’t the worst film of the Thorn Curse trilogy (that honour goes to Halloween 6), but it does end rather predictably. Onto Halloween 5!
neutral · AI labelView post →I can't remember if I love Halloween 4 or Halloween 5 (I used to think they were the same film haha) so I guess the only thing to do is rewatch them both. 😁

neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve watched a horror movie practically every single day this month and its been fun as hell. Even the “bad” ones (looking at you, Halloween 5) can be fun to watch if you have the right mindset!
neutral · AI labelView post →It's not the worst movie because at least it's fun and sometime entertaining! Halloween 5 still exists after all
neutral · AI labelView post →So, I'm watching Halloween 5, and for some reason, there's fade-in cuts like I'm watching a TV version of the movie even though I'm watching it on a streaming service. I'm using a free trial for Shudder.
