Laurie grew a wig. And it was a lot bloodier than the first one.

Scared shitless even before it started. Once the film did begin, it didn't disappoint.
Hadn't seen the first at the time and I was in a cinema, lied about my age to get in and was scared someone would jump from behind me and attack me.
H2 is in my top favorite early 80's slashers.

It wasn't overly gory, but it was sharp and pointed and metallic like and this quality gave it a disturbing edge. I felt like I could almost feel what the victims were feeling.

First time I had a glimpse of the ending on TV when Michael got shot in the eyes. Pretty cool.
I sat through the whole movie on TV again right after the original, and thought it wasn’t as good but still enjoyed it.

It is actually My Number 1 Favorite "HALLOWEEN" Movie out of all of them.

I was creeped out and intrigued the entire time. Such a criminally underrated sequel film imo.

A lot of TV versions are like that anyway. |

Doesn't have the tone or feel of the first one, is much more gruesome but not as scary, while it is I think the best of the Halloween sequels, which is not a huge achievement, it's nowhere as good as the first.

It was nowhere as good as the first film. In the first film, there was a pattern of violence, but here, almost everybody gets killed in a gruesome way. Laurie Strode, who was a headstrong heroine in the previous film, is reduced to being a screaming damsel in distress.
