John Carpenter intended this film to mark the end of the Michael Myers story, and [[Film/HalloweenIIISeasonOfTheWitch the next film]] in the franchise did something completely different altogether. Two of the ''Halloween'' sequels pick up after the events of this film: ''Film/Halloween4TheReturnOfMichaelMyers'' serves as a direct sequel to the events of this film with a new protagonist, while ''Film/HalloweenH20TwentyYearsLater'' ignores ''Halloween 4'' (and its two sequels) to continue the story of Laurie Strode.
