Plot

The film begins with Michael Myers falling into a mine shaft and being shot at, like at the end of Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, but Michael climbs into the river, where a Hermit keeps him healthy. About a year later, Michael reawakens, kills the hermit and returns to terrorize Haddonfield, where his long-lost niece, Jamie Lloyd (played by Danielle Harris) lives. Jamie, who has nearly lost her ability to speak since attacking her foster mother, has developed a telepathic link with her evil uncle. Dr. Sam Loomis realizes that this link exists, and plans to use it to put an end to Michael. Michael begins stalking Rachel's (Jamie's foster sister) friend Tina (played by Wendy Kaplan), and Jamie lets them know where Myers is. Michael escapes the first time, but the second time he succeeds and unfortunatly kills Tina. Jamie agrees to help Loomis and With Jamie's help, Loomis brings Michael back to the old Myers House. Michael makes many attempts to kill Jamie, and when he finally has the chance, Jamie says "Uncle." and Myers pauses and takes his mask off. Jamie sees his face, but soon Michael begins to attack, and he pulls his mask back on. Loomis comes to the rescue and attacks Michael, knocking Myers out. They take Michael to a sheriff's station. However, a stranger has come to Haddonfield. The film ends with an explosion at the sheriff's station, after which both Michael and Jamie have disappeared.
