*****************************************************************************
Opening Remarks: I wasn't a fan of the Halloween series, but I had seen the first film many years ago on television. I decided to buy this DVD partly because it was only $9.96 and partly because I wanted to see it.

*****************************************************************************
Movie Quality: Quite frankly, Halloween II is awesome! This is one of the scariest films I have ever seen. This movie is much better than Halloween: H20, which I saw after I saw this film. Anyways, this film picks up immediately after the first film ended. This is an excellent idea that is rarely utilized. Anyways, Michael Myers is still trying to kill Laurie Strode. We find out why in this film. Anyways, this is one of the scariest films that I have seen without being overly gory. It's just a blast!

Video Quality: This disc looks awesome! The film is presented in all of it's 2.35:1 Widescreen glory. The video is super crisp and clear and it just plain looks awesome!
*****************************************************************************

*****************************************************************************
Sound Quality: The sound has been remixed in Dolby Pro-Logic Surround and it sounds great. You will be scared on certain occasions because of the rear sounds. This disc just sounds awesome.

*****************************************************************************
Extras: The only extras on this disc are subtitles and Production Notes. There are English, Spanish, and French Subtitles. The production notes are like 4 pages long and are pretty cool to read.

RIYL: Other Halloween films.(I have only seen Halloween, Halloween II, & Halloween:H20)
