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.
