Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers - Production

Production

"Drunk off the success of Halloween 4, we began production on Halloween 5."
— Moustapha Akkad on Halloween 5.

The success of Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers that had jump-started Michael Myers' fame as the '80s slasher movie craze had begun to subside. Film franchises like Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street were also declining. While the previous film was still in theaters, Moustapha Akkad had already laid out plans for Halloween 5. The producers wanted to screen the film in October 1989, just one year after the previous sequel.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    “The development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    “The production of too many useful things results in too many useless people.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    “Constant revolutionizing of production ... distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)
