Movie Review | Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (Little, 1988)

This review contains mild spoilers.

Dwight H. Little’s Marked for Death struck me as an action movie enlivened by horror movie excess, martial arts and shoot ‘em up action spiced up by eerie voodoo elements and bone crunching brutality. This feels like the flipside, a horror movie that goes big and loud whenever it approaches anything resembling action. There’s one particularly action-packed scene where Dr. Loomis fires a gun and then jumps out of the way to avoid a careening pickup truck driven by Michael Myers, a series of events which leads to an explosion, which is bigger and louder than what you usually get in a slasher movie. Of course it’s worth noting that Donald Pleasance looks substantially older and more frail than he did in his previous appearance in the series, so the use of stunt doubles is noticeable. If the real Pleasance tried some of what his character did, pretty sure he’d keel over right after.

There’s also the scene where a group of trigger happy good ol’ boys blast away at someone they think is Michael Myers, which has a lot more firepower than you normally get in a slasher movie. If anything, this scene presages the misguided mob violence in David Gordon Green’s Halloween Kills. (Although for my money, the best mistaken Myers scene is the rather explosive one in Rick Rosenthal’s Halloween II.) And thankfully this doesn’t feature any scenes where the townspeople spout obnoxiously that the more Michael Myers kills, the more he transcends into something impossible to defeat and that the true curse of Michael Myers is fear. Or that Michael Myers isn’t a soundbite, spinoff, tie-in, some kind of celebrity scandal, but is in fact a killer shark in baggy-ass overalls who gets his kicks off of killing everything and everyone he comes across. Oh wait, that was Halloween: Resurrection.

I think it’s obvious Green was taking notes during this one, as it also features the kind of blunt force trauma that he gleefully trots out in his instalments, and attempts some statement about the effect of such trauma on its survivors. Although to be honest, the development at the end feels cheap and poorly presaged, and I think Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter pulled off something similar but with enough ambiguity to not twist the knife in the audience.

Anyway, this ranks below my favourite Halloween movies, although the mix of painful looking violence and stylish lighting means that it rallies pretty well in its third act (until that final stinger, that is). And there’s even some fog, meaning that it’s better than an otherwise similar but fog-free feature.
