## Plot

On October 31, 1988, Michael Myers is shot and falls down a mine shaft. Sheriff Ben Meeker, the lynch mob of Haddonfield's truckers, and state police toss down dynamite to finish him off. Escaping into a nearby creek before the dynamite explodes, Michael stumbles upon a local hermit and falls into a coma, placing himself in the hermit's care, and being nursed back to health. One year later, on October 30, 1989, Michael awakens, stabs the hermit to death with his knife, and returns to Haddonfield to find his niece Jamie Lloyd again, who narrowly avoided being killed by him the year before.

Jamie has been admitted to the Haddonfield Children's Clinic, having been rendered mute due to psychological trauma, suffering from nightmares and seizures and being treated for stabbing her foster mother with a pair of scissors under Michael's influence, though her foster mother survived. Jamie exhibits signs of a telepathic link with her uncle. Dr. Sam Loomis becomes aware of Jamie's psychic link with Michael, and tries to convince Meeker that Michael is still alive, nearly being choked by the sheriff when he brings up Kelly's death by Michael's hands, infuriating Meeker. Meanwhile, Michael stabs Jamie's foster sister Rachel to death with a pair of scissors in retribution for trying to kill him previously, and begins stalking their friend Tina, also killing Tina's boyfriend Mike by stabbing him with a rake and then poses as him, wearing a mask that Tina had given to him earlier. Tina never finds out about Mike's death.

Later that night, Tina and her friends Sam and Spitz go to a Halloween party at a farm. Sensing that Tina is in danger, Jamie, having regained her ability to speak, goes to warn her. While Sam and Spitz are having sex in the barn, Michael impales Spitz with a rake and decapitates Sam with a scythe. Tina finds the bodies, and goes to warn nearby police deputies, Nick Ross and Tom Ferriah, but finds Michael has killed them. Tina flees, but Jamie and her friend Billy Hill from the clinic arrive, and Michael begins chasing Jamie but crashes into a tree. Michael gets out of the car, and Tina sacrifices herself to allow Jamie and Billy time to escape. Loomis arrives, and Jamie finally agrees to help him stop Michael for good.

With Jamie's help, Loomis and Meeker has create a set up at the old Myers house to lure Michael back to his abandoned childhood home. Suddenly the police receives a call saying Michael has broken into the clinic which causes Meeker and most of the officers to leave. But it's only a diversion. Michael appears and kills the officer sitting in the car, before entering the house where Loomis tries to reason with him, but Michael slashes him and throws him over the stair banister. Michael kills officer Bloch who was protecting Jamie before chasing her throughout the house, where she finds the bodies of Max the dog, Rachel and Mike in the attic. Michael finds Jamie and attempts to kill her when Jamie respond by saying uncle, which cause Michael to remove his mask. But when Jamie touches his face he goes into a fit of rage, Jamie heads downstairs only to find Loomis has re-appeared and using her as bait, and lures Michael into a trap to weaken him with a tranquilizer gun. After beating Michael unconscious with a wooden plank, Loomis collapses from a stroke.

Michael is then taken into custody, with Meeker showing Jamie him chained in a cell, awaiting transport to a prison by the National Guard where he'll serve a life sentence until he hopefully dies and never threatens anyone again. But Jamie isn't sure he will die, but as she's about to be taken home by one of the officers, a mysterious man in black arrives and launches a surprise attack on the police station with an explosion then shoots the place up with a machine gun. Jamie goes back inside, and find the bodies of Meeker and three other cops shot to death. Jamie finds Michael's cell empty and the prison's exit broken open, and she breaks down in tears.
