Summary

In this sequel to the original HALLOWEEN, Jamie Lee Curtis returns as Laurie Strode who is still struggling to put her past behind her. Living under an alias in a small town with her 17 year-old son, John (Josh Hartnett), she works as the head mistress of a private school. Twenty years have passed and Michael Myers is suddenly back in her life with a vengeance and its not just Laurie Strode he's after. The terror begins for a whole new generation. When a small group of students ditch the school camping trip to have their own Halloween fun, they find that blood is thicker than water. Once again, Laurie Strode must endure a Halloween from Hell.
