ALL ABOUT MOVIE - A SYNOPSIS:

Laurie's Final Fight:

The film opened with the voice-over of Laurie Strode speaking about a 'death tunnel'. As the camera tracked along a sanitarium hallway, she talked about a door at the end of the corridor, to either "Heaven or Hell." The camera continued into the round window in the doorway, where a Raggedy Ann doll sat on her room's pillow and she sat nearby, staring off and looking heavily sedated. In 2001, she was a patient, in lockdown, at the Grace Andersen Sanitarium, a psychiatric care facility in California, where she had a reputation as the sister of notorious serial killer Michael Myers.

A nurse on duty described - as the film flashed back to the concluding events of the previous one - three years earlier, on Halloween 1998, she had shockingly decapitated a man. It was "twenty years after the first murders" when Michael finally found his sister at the school where she worked, and attempted to murder her. During the confusion, an innocent paramedic had discovered the 'dead' body of Myers in the school's dining hall. Whilst trying to unmask Myers, he regained consciousness, attacked the paramedic and crushed his larynx (rendering him appropriately mute with inoperative vocal chords) and Michael switched clothing with him. When Michael's mask was removed from the decapitated head, it was discovered that Laurie had beheaded the wrong person: instead of Myers, she had beheaded the paramedic, a father of three. As this happens the real Michael Myers slips off into the woods, escaping police custody.

Appearing in a vegetative state, Laurie was suffering from "extreme dissociative disorder" and had been mute for years. Doctors considered the guilt-ridden patient a suicide threat (she was often discovered on the hospital's roof poised to kill herself). After two nurses gave the haunted-looking Laurie her medications and left her locked room, Laurie (faking illness) removed the pills from her mouth and stuffed them (along with many others) into the insides of her rag-doll. As she looked out her window, she saw Michael Myers, standing and looking back at her from a grassy area.

A sanitarium security officer named Willie Haines, checking on an open outdoor chain-fence gate, was spooked by a clown-masked patient named Harold Trumble, known for posing as notorious serial killers (this time, he was John Wayne Gacy). Willie brought Harold to his room, but then another guard named Franklin Munroe noticed a similar figure on a surveillance monitor roaming in the basement's corridor. The two guards went to check out the situation, and as Willie paused at a snack machine, Michael Myers decapitated Franklin in the laundry room. Willie heard a scream, and then a thumping noise when he investigated - and then discovered Franklin's bloody head wrapped in sheets and revolving in an institutional laundry machine. Behind Willie, Michael lowered himself from the ceiling, and as Willie stepped backwards, he tripped over Franklin's beheaded body (in a pool of blood) on the floor, and then had his throat slit with a butcher knife.

During his exit from the institution, Michael gave Harold his butcher knife - as a memento of his status as a famous serial killer. In voice-over, Harold recounted Michael's history (a flawed account): "Michael Myers. Born October 19, 1957. Killed his older sister October 31st, 1963. Killed three high school students, October 31st, 1978 (Halloween). Also killed three nurses and a paramedic, same night (Halloween II)’’. Actually, Michael killed 12 people and two dogs that same day and night: a neighbor, an unnamed citizen, a security guard, a 2 paramedics, a doctor, four nurses at attendance, and a Marshall, Lester, and a female dog that was eaten by Myers. ‘‘Was believed to be dead, then killed four students, Hillcrest Academy, 1998” (Halloween H2O: Twenty Years Later). Michael killed only two students at the academy, plus a guidance counselor, he killed two other students in Illinois and nurse Marion Whittington. "Has been missing, unheard of, last three years. (Laughs) And now he's back."

DANGERTAINMENT:

The next scene was set at Haddonfield University, where Professor Mixter was lecturing in a classroom about famous psychologist Carl Jung, who said that in everyone, there "lurks a dark malevolent figure - a kind of boogeyman if you will." One attentive, smart female student, Sara Moyer was shown twirling her hair, and answered his question about "the shadow." Narcissistic bleach-blond Jennifer Danzig told her friend Sara and university cafeteria worker Rudy Grimes, that all three of them had been selected as "chosen few" cast members of the Dangertainment team, to "explore the deep dark recesses of the human psyche." Sarah was reluctant, although aspiring network TV broadcaster Jen was excited about the publicity and the paid scholarship. Weird classmate Aron warned them not to participate: "That's the house where it all started. He walked its hallways, hid in its closets, dreamed in its bedrooms, helped his mother in the kitchen, watched TV in the living room with his Dad, played in his sister's bedroom. Then one day, he picked up a knife and he never put it down again."

On Halloween eve October 30, the six selected students attended a meeting at the 2400 Court Motel, where they met fast-talking, trashy reality-show media promoter (and kung-fu aficionado) Freddie Harris and his business partner Nora Winston, representing the Dangertainment.com website. The twenty-somethings were to "explore America's worst nightmare" on Halloween night, and "to enter the birthplace of evil in its purest form - the childhood home of our most brutal mass murderer, Michael Myers." During a live Internet broadcast, students were to spend an MTV-like Real World night in Myers' childhood home.

Entering The Myers House:

On Halloween day 2002, in preparation for the live Internet show, the students were given a clip-on mini-camera to wear above one ear, through which Web viewers would be given inter-active clickable images (via split-screen), with the choice about which student (or camera) to follow. Freddie suggested that they act "very interesting" so that it would be "worth the while of the viewers." During the day at the boarded-up Myers house in a state of disrepair, Spielberg-aspiring, Long Beach State graduate and cameraman Charley Albans was positioning DV cameras everywhere. Suddenly, the serial killer grabbed the tripod leg of his camera and spiked Charley through the neck.

The broadcast was enjoyed by costumed college students at a Halloween party, attended by Sara's under-aged cyber-geek friend Myles Barton (screen-name Deckard), and his friend Scott, who were dressed as the Samuel L. Jackson/John Travolta characters from Pulp Fiction. Deckard had promised Sara that he would support her during her ordeal ("exploring the house of a mass murderer, live") via a hand-held technology PDA gadget (wireless Palm Pilot) and e-mail. During the party, he began watching the live event on a wide-screen TV screen hooked up to a computer. As darkness fell, the group lit candles in the dining room, and searched in the house with flashlights. Jen and Bill went into Judith's bedroom while Donna explored in the shadowy basement with Jim. She theorized that Myers' killing spree was based upon "impulse control disorder" and an uncontrollable rage: "Kind of like a klepto or a nympho or a pyro."
