Laurie Strode, the teenager last terrorized by Myers, is taken to a nearby hospital to recover from her traumatic ordeal. But Myers isn't through with her yet, and the fright-night monster works his way through the sleepy town, leaving a river of blood in his wake. Determined to get his revenge on Laurie, he eventually descends upon the hospital -- and the dark secret that binds the two of them is finally revealed. [More]

Reviews for Halloween II
Might have been better than the first one if it hadn't been tampered with after Rosenthal shot it
While it’s nowhere near the classic that the original is, this sequel deserves credit for trying to stay on track with its predecessor and succeeding most of the way.
Had Halloween 2 not been a sequel to one of the greatest genre films of all time, it would be regarded as little more than another bad slasher film from an era full of bad slasher films -- a fate that it richly deserves.
Halloween is a classic and its first sequel is a sloppy afterthought.
