Quotes:
|
-
Dr. Loomis: You talk about him as if he were a human being. That part of him died years ago.
-
Sheriff Meeker: Oh, yeah... I catch you groping my daughter, I'll use that shotgun on you. Understand?
-
Security Guard: You never get used to the faces. Never!
-
Sheriff Meeker: I got a town full of beer bellies running around in the dark with shot guns! Who's gonna be next?
-
Jack Sayer: You're huntin' it, ain't ya? Yeah, you're huntin' it alright, just like me!
Dr. Loomis: What are you hunting, Mr. Sayer?
Jack Sayer: Apocalypse, End of the World, Armageddon. It always has a face and a name. I've been huntin' the bastard for 30 years, give or take. Came real close a time or two. Too damn close! You can't kill damnation, Mister. It don't die like a man dies!

Trivia:
|
- Dwight H. Little did extensive research on the history of Halloween and many of its harvest images were put in the creepy opening sequence.
- Mike Lookinland (Bobby Brady) of "THE BRADY BUNCH" was the production assistant. His wife played the dead waitress.
- After viewing a rough edit it was decided that the movie was too soft, so they brought in special effects wizard John Carl Buechler for one day of extra "blood" filming. The thumb in the forehead and the redneck's head getting twisted were both done by him.
- Alan B. McElroy wrote the script in 11 days and beat the writer's strike by mere hours.
- The gaffer (Garlan Wilde) was seriously injured during the filming of the Michael and Brady confrontation. Garlan was putting up a light and fell and cut his wrists; he was quickly rushed to the hospital.
