Because It's Ridiculously Confusing, Here Is Every Movie in the Halloween Franchise

With Zombie again producing and directing, the sequel strays from Carpenter and Hill's plot. Instead, it focuses the story two years after the events of the first rather than immediately following, with a Loomis who is more concerned with promoting his new book than finding Michael and a Laurie who shares hallucinations with her killer brother. The movie also devotes more time to the character's inner self, focusing on the psychological connection between Laurie and Michael.

McDowell, Taylor-Compton, Harris, and Mane all returned to reprise their roles. Though audiences enjoyed the movie more than the critics did, the film's box office revenue took another dip.
