Terrible ending
"nnooooooooo, noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" If you wanted a turning point where this movie series went completely downhill, this is it.
shareNo (Pun intended). The franchise went downhill with 5, psychic links, clown cops, man in black, crying and super Myers house.
How is the fact that Jamie became the new Michael and Loomis reacting to that bad? In the original, he already did the "I knew this would happen" look. Here, after setting him on fire in II, having Michael shot all to hell and buried, where he belongs, just for Jamie to pick up the knife, how else was he supposed to react? And keep in mind up til then she was an innocent 7 year old girl, not a murderer (as the writers of 4 intended, til 5 retconned it).
Yes, he could've reacted differently, but it's strictly your opinion what is better or worse. Take it or leave it, it was what it was. When in truth the franchise nosedived a year later. You don't get to be the #1 movie in America 2 weeks in a row off a bad ending. Word of mouth would spread too fast and the drop would've been the following week.
"He came home." - Dr. Sam Loomis from the original HalloweeN
I actually like 5 even though they should have gone with Jamie as the killer.
Poorly Lived and Poorly Died, Poorly Buried and No One Criedshare
I disagree. Jamie as the killer is one of the most laughably bad ideas I have ever heard. It would have been utterly rejected by fans just like Friday The 13th Part 5 was, which led to Jason returning next time around. Nobody wants someone else being the killer in the Halloween franchise anymore than they did in the Friday series. And if they made Michael and Jamie a team, it would have been even worse!

I am not a fan. I just happen to enjoy movies. Fans are embarrassing.
I think Jamie should have not talked and been in a state of shock or just sit there like how Michael did as a child..then maybe later come to her senses.
Would have been cooler if it was like part 2 and years later she's at the institution and a teenager and she freaks out and attacks a staff member or Michael shows up and goes on a rampage like in part 2. Jamie escapes with another patient sure Billy and they are attacked by Michael who kills Billy and Jamie ends up still in her hospital dress and at a Halloween party and Michael starts to kill people there.
Okay I'm tired it's 1 am. Lol.
Mmm, not necessarily true. Take into account when it was made. Word of mouth wasn't as speedy as today.
