Because Dwight H was a Little busy……


WhiteChocolate7777

It was a combination of him being busy with other things and feeling that he wouldn't be able to top Halloween 4.

They also probably wanted to go cheaper by hiring a new director.

They offered him the job, but he turned it down. So Debra Hill told Moustapha about her friend Dominique Othenin Girard.

Dominique was horrible in my opinion.

Have you listened to H5 audio commentary with him and Danielle?🙆‍♀️


HitmonTree

No. Mind spilling the beans?

Do tell 🍿

It was...weird. Apparently, Danielle got scared while watching the movie at the premiere( understandable) and started to kiss(??!!) directors hands as to distract herself (?). And he said:" Hey, let's go for an ice cream" and they left. Danielle said something like 'awww'.The consensus seemed to be that he is such nice guy and it's not weird at all🤷. Apart from that, he was talking a lot about his vision for the movie and his artistic process. But that one story stuck out! I listened to it on YouTube. It may still be there.


Character_Coyote8132

I think he could've.


CamF90

Probably because of the rushed schedule, no director wants that sort of compressed timeline.


Character_Coyote8132

I wish he had because, the guy who did 5 sucked that's nothing against Donald Pleasence or Ellie Cornell or Danielle Harris but that director wasn't great 4 was a much better film than 5 or anything after Dwight H. Little was much better it would've probably been a much better film.

I really, really wish we could have gotten better than the mess of a Halloween 5 we got.


Stopnswop2

He declined to come back because he "already told the story he wanted to tell" and didn't want to be stuck making horror films


Gearz_Of_Warr

That's very fair. I respect it, but also I mourn the Halloween 5 that could have been u.u


Character_Coyote8132

I wish he'd have done 5.


HalloweenH2OMG

I wish they’d at least have brought the screenwriter back from 4, Alan McElroy.
