* Tommy Doyle, after spending much of his life tormented by the memory of Michael's original killing spree, beats him repeatedly with a pipe and then, in possibly the best subversion of a horror trope ever, BEATS HIM MORE when he's down.
* Dr. Loomis, after finding Jamie's stabbed body, in the Producer's Cut:
-->'''Jerkass Sheriff''': You people don't have any business in my town.
-->'''Dr. Loomis''': Michael Myers... IS my business.
* "[[CallingTheOldManOut I see only ONE bastard in this house.]]" Granted, she gets smacked for that comment, but this, along with the YourHeadAsplode death he got is pretty much an awesome form of retribution for John Strode's stupidity.
** Followed by Danny pulling a knife on John for smacking Kara.
* A villainous example, but in the theatrical cut of the film Michael personally teaches the Cult of Thorn that EvilIsNotAToy the hard way in the form of a brutal rampage where he kills anybody in his path.
** Even better is the way he starts it off. After coming upon the operation room where the cult is in, Michael sees a medical tray full of operating tools. At first, it appears as if he's gonna grab a scalpel like in ''Halloween II'' only for him to grab something else. That something? ''A surgical machete.'' Michael's gonna make it ''very'' clear to them.
* When Tommy's trying to break Kara out of her room in the sanitarium, Michael appears in the hallway and the two finally lock eyes. At first, Tommy is understandably stunned with fear. Then he cracks a crazed smile and appears to mimic Michael's QuizzicalTilt, as if daring him to BringIt. Of course, Michael obliges and Tommy goes back to frantically trying to free Kara as the boogieman advances down the corridor.
* Loomis is certifiably fantastic in this film, a phenomenal return for a character who the previous film did so dirty. His acting here is some of the best he gave in the entire series, with special mention going to the sheer, deadly-serious conviction in his "You...are...a madman," line. It's even more impressive when you learn that he was gravely ill during filming and died shortly after production wrapped up.
* Beth's RousingSpeech to a crowd of fair guests about how it is time to put Michael behind them and start celebrating Halloween again. Granted, she's wrong about him being gone for good, but she still delivers it with a lot of power and emotion.
--> '''Beth''': We are not going to allow the powers that be tell us what to do anymore. For years Halloween represented everything wrong with Haddonfield, but Michael Myers is gone. There is no Boogeyman.
* The music in this film is easily the best ''Halloween'' soundtrack since John Carpenter stopped composing for the series.
* As much as people hate on this film for the cult aspect, this film had the job of explaining and wrapping up the hokey cult stuff set up in and hinted at throughout 4 and 5 (and even a bit in II with Michael scrawling "SAMHAIN" onto the school's chalkboard), and considering what it had to work with, it did a stellar job. It makes the cult seem genuinely scary and threatening.
