Quotes:
|
-
Sheriff Meeker: Oh, yeah... I catch you groping my daughter, I'll use that shotgun on you. Understand?
-
Dr. Loomis: We're not talking about any ordinary prisoner, Hoffman! We are talking about evil on two legs.
-
Security Guard: You never get used to the faces. Never!
-
Dr. Loomis: Why wasn't I informed?
Dr. Hoffman: About what?
Dr. Loomis: You know damn well about what... You let them take it out of here!
Dr. Hoffman: For Christ's sake, spare me the speech - I've listened to it for a decade! The fact is, Michael Myers was a federal patient and a federal prisoner, therefore he is subject to federal law!
-
Dr. Loomis: The state police will be here soon.
Jamie: And then we'll be safe?
Dr. Loomis: Yes.
Jamie: You don't believe that, do you?
[checks door, then pauses]
Dr. Loomis: No...

Trivia:
|
- Dwight H. Little did extensive research on the history of Halloween and many of its harvest images were put in the creepy opening sequence.
- After viewing a rough edit it was decided that the movie was too soft, so they brought in special effects wizard John Carl Buechler for one day of extra "blood" filming. The thumb in the forehead and the redneck's head getting twisted were both done by him.
- The gaffer (Garlan Wilde) was seriously injured during the filming of the Michael and Brady confrontation. Garlan was putting up a light and fell and cut his wrists; he was quickly rushed to the hospital.
- Mike Lookinland (Bobby Brady) of "THE BRADY BUNCH" was the production assistant. His wife played the dead waitress.
- Leaves had to be imported and squash was painted to look like pumpkins.
