I meant to mention this yesterday but forgot to bring it up in my "Mikey's Revenge" post for the first Halloween film. Beau Starr was noticeably absent most of the film in the sequel to Part 4 which I found rather surprising considering he is a decently developed character in "Mikey's Return". As Sheriff Ben Meeker, he just seems to be restricted to a few minutes in "Mikey's Revenge". Not sure why, but perhaps during the script-writing and directorial process of Part 5 there just wasn't room for his character. And speaking of the Haddonfield police. Something right out of The Hitcher or The Terminator, Mikey was able to wipe out an entire police department...twice! Well, the second time with a little help. Rather ludicrous, but I often use the word *ludicrous* when describing these kinds of films.
