How in the heck did Sarah pull her leg and foot out of the dumbwaiter, with her leg injured, the weight of the dumbwaiter, plus the weight of her boyfriend but she couldn't pull her uninjured leg out from under her dead boyfriend's leg? wtf really?
shareOuch! Is all I can say.
shareYeah that tiny bit always bothered me, his leg wouldn't be that heavy(he was a small guy). She would have been out from under him in not time, it would have been better if he was still slightly alive and wouldn't let her go or something.

yes, great idea and such a logical and simple fix to what was filmed.

She should have been in wild pain considering how crushed it was to even think about Michael coming. And she really didn't seem to be in that much pain.
shareShe wasn't that great an actress and if I remember correctly from the making of, she wasn't all that into it, tired, late, she even went back to the hotel looking like that and it freaked the front desk out.

In the time it took Michael to cut the rope you would think he wouldn't waste the time. It reached the upper level, and in the time it took to cut, he should have assumed she made it out. How did he know she was stuck to something and could not get out.
shareHe didn't, he just stalked her like he did Marion, and after Sarah, John and Molly. Not being sexist but teen age girls don't have the best success rate against Michael. Even young adults. Halloween and Halloween II proved that.

What? I do not understand, how does jabbing her with a knife and cutting the rope of the dumbwaiter considered stalking? I was saying that the dumbwaiter made it to the upper level long before he started cutting. Unless he is an special vision he would have just turned to go upstairs. Did he think she was just sitting in the dumbwaiter with her dead boyfriend instead of immediately getting out to run for safety?
shareStalking was meant that he didn't just cut the rope and hope for the best, he went upstairs to finish the job. Which is what he did. He knew she was hurt, by the actions he took and her screaming, so he knew she'd be easy prey. He knew her leg was injured, so he knew she couldn't easily get away. Which she did not.
A similar chase scene was in 2 when Laurie shut the elevator on his hand. He didn't just give up, her followed her. Same thing here.

Well, again, it's not like he hasn't waited before. It's his MO. He waited to chase Laurie after she failed to get into the neighbor's house in the original. He waited until Laurie was hobbling toward the hospital doors in the 2md. Maybe it was written that way on purpose, to increase tension I don't know. Here again, we don't know (and he doesn't know) a lot of things. Out of line of sight will do that. Who knows how long it actually takes to get from where he was to the part where Sarah was, we only saw the dumbwaiter, no stairs, anything. And even then, John and or Molly could've been there and it's harder to kill 3 people than just one. Which is why he isolated and waited on both Annie to lose Lindsay and Bob to leave Lynda in the original. One could always run. Running leads to problems.
Cat and mouse. He likes to do that too. He's not bull in a China shop Jason. He thinks.
So that's why he waited. He's done it before, there's a logic and reasoning to it.
