"You can't kill the bogeyman," the children insist to a terrorized Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) in the original Halloween. How right they are. Laurie is gone, but guess who's back in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers? Acting as if the third entry never existed, this installment picks up 10 years after the original, with mad maniac Myers in a coma and moved to a new facility. But wouldn't you know it that as soon as a loose-lipped orderly lets slip that Myers has a surviving niece he springs back into action, leaving a bloody trail of corpses on the road to Haddonfield. Donald Pleasance returns as Dr. Loomis, scarred and crippled from his last encounter with Myers and seething with a fanatical zeal to stop the freak from repeating his previous rampage. Pleasance is the best thing about the film as an aging hero seemingly on the verge of madness who drags a bum leg in his manic rush to save little orphan Jamie (Danielle Harris), the 10-year-old waif terrorized by her homicidal uncle. Director Dwight Little has managed a generic if professional slasher picture, rife with improbabilities and dominated by a killer whose superhuman powers reach near-mystical dimensions, but he delivers the goods: shocks, stabs, and cold, cruel killings. --Sean AxmakerCustomer Review: You've really got to be kidding me...
Suddenly, as the film opens in Halloween 4: The Return of Micheal Myers, we as the viewer are subject to some odd little facts that just suddenly happened. Jaimie Lee Curtis is nowhere to be found, she suddenly has a daughter, Loomis is at his looniest and SOMEHOW survived the explosion in 2 (impossible) and on top of THAT, he lived threw it all with only a few visible scars on his face... Need I mention that Micheal was shot in both eyes in 2, but has them back (but some strange turn of events) in 4... I know a lot can happen in "10 years", but i mean some of this stuff is just ridiculous... While i respect the attempt made here...it was a terrible attempt... and yet, they went on to make 2 more terrible follow up movies... no good...
Customer Review: HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
I thought it would be awesome to review this movie on this day! Ten years after Michael tried to kill his sister, and six years after Dan Challis saved the kids from dying from the Silver Shamrock masks, Michael comes out of his coma and wants to kill his niece, Jamie Lloyd. Dr. Loomis tries to stop Michael from doing that. Jamie lives with the Carruthers family. Her step-sister Rachel has a big date on HALLOWEEN, but the babysitter broke her ankle at the ice rink, so Rachel has to babysit Jamie. When Rachel takes Jamie trick-or-treating, Rachel sees her boyfriend with the Sheriff's daughter. Soon, Michael comes after Jamie. Some rednecks try to stop Michael also. Jamie, Rachel, Brady, and Kelly all get stuck in the Sheriff's house with Michael inside. If you love the HALLOWEEN series, you'll love HALLOWEEN 4: THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS!!! p.s. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
This time of the year there is something magical in the air. Jingle Bells fills the air wherever you go and your social calendar is filled with events and parties from friends and family. To ensure that this year your holiday baking will be the best it's ever been we've decided to share some of our best baking secrets.
1. Start out Fresh: Last season's ingredients just won't cut it. Stock up on fresh holiday cookie baking ingredients and start out fresh. A holiday cookie that tastes likes stale flour just won't do it. Sugar might be able to keep for quite a while, put products like, baking soda and flavored extracts can quickly become stale and dull-tasting.
2. Easy on the Oven: Overbaking will result in dry hard cookies. Follow the recipes time for baking closely, and remember to pre-heat your oven before sticking the cookies inside. Most cookies should be removed from the oven while they're still soft and just lightly browned around the edges. They should be moist & chewy and will firm up after cooling. Be sure to store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
3. Keep the Cookies Handy: Fresh cookies are the best cookies, so when baking, make an extra batch or two. Tightly covered containers is perfect for storing cookie dough in the refrigerator for when you need it.
4. Keep it Clean: For easy clean up, grease a tray or dish with margarine without getting your hands dirty: put your hands inside a small plastic sandwich bag. Just turn the bag inside out when you are done and throw it away!
5. Don't use Guesswork: Baking is not like cooking. Cooking allows you to improvise ingredients and alternate easily with various quantities and mostly you can still cook up a perfect meal. You need to ensure that the recipe ingredients and measurements are spot on as baking takes a lot more precision. There are however exception, if you want to change the flavour of a cookie recipe dough you can easily exchange it for another and still come out with a perfect batch.
6. Freezing to Make it Easy: If you are not going to be serving your cookies in the next three days, freeze them. To freeze, cool the cookies thoroughly before wrapping them well. Good packaging keeps cookies in prime condition and prevents dry freezer air from drying them out. Freeze cookies in layers, separated by a sheet of waxed paper. To thaw, let the cookies stand for 15 minutes in the container at room temperature.
7. Tasty Nutty Treats: Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees and spread the nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake 5 to 7 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Or, toast in the microwave by spreading nuts in a single layer on a microwave plate and microwave on High for 2 minutes. Stir nuts, then continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes longer, until nuts are fragrant and toasted to taste.
8. Chocolate to Top it all Off: To create the ultimate garnish for baking use something sweet, smooth and decadent like chocolate. Make small curls by drawing a vegetable peeler across the narrow side of a chocolate bar. To make large curls, draw the vegetable peeler across the wide side of a chocolate bar. Milk chocolate is the easiest chocolate to use for making curls.
