It was everywhere, and some of the dream sequences were so LSD induced and the BEST part of the movie was a dream. I hated that Laurie was no longer innocent and a victim but rather a slut and a bitch who whines and drinks.
But, what I hated above all was that Loomis was a dick and that all he cared about was money when the REAL Loomis understood Michael and wanted to help Laurie with or without money. He ruined Loomis' character.

Plus, why do I need to know Michael's back story? In the immortalized words of Mike Dougherty... the less you know about your killer, the more frightening he is.
I'll agree. This one was actually worse than his first attempt. I know which part you're talking about and I was highly disappointed when that turned out to be a fucking dream. At that point, the movie immediately started going down hill.
I really thought he took the Laurie character in a very weird direction. One thing that usually never works in a movie is when someone gets drunk for the first time or if they have to act like they're completely hammered. When Laurie was acting all drunk and stupid it was.... Well, stupid. It was unbelievable and stupid.
Loomis' character was annoying as fuck. I don't even know why he showed him so much. I mean, he didn't really do anything significant. MOST of his scenes we could have done without. Hell, the we could have done without him for the whole movie.
