{Aprox. amount of time spent fast forwarding}-
I in general don't like movies that start out with a recap and call that good enough in terms of plot. If this were being played as a double feature it would work. But this is another case of a sequel that starts in motion and barely slows down enough to give you the backstory. This one starts with Michael still in the middle of his first rampage. I'd like to give you the summary of the plot but there really isn't much plot. It relies on your knowledge of the first one to create suspense while Michael walks around and picks people off until he can find lil' sis. I think the reason why the Halloween series has never been as big as Nightmare on Elmstreet and Friday the 13th is because the sequels just don't have the punch of the other two respective series'.
