Synopsis

October 31, 1963, Haddonfield, Illinois. Possessed by an unfathomable urge to kill, six-year-old Michael Myers butchers his fifteen-year-old sister, Judith, on the night of Halloween. Precisely fifteen long years later, on the anniversary of the brutal murder, Michael escapes from Smith's Grove Sanitarium, a mental health facility for the criminally insane, and returns home. And before long, Michael becomes fixated on blissfully unsuspecting high school student Laurie Strode and her friends, Annie and Lynda. In the meantime, Myers' psychiatrist, Dr Samuel Loomis, and sceptical Sheriff Leigh Brackett comb the town to ferret out the mentally unstable inmate. However, the shadows are thick, and the silent killer is always one step ahead of them. Has Michael Myers returned to pick up where he left off?
