A Halloween Tribute to Dr. Loomis

Anyone who is a fan of the Halloween movie franchise has got to be a fan of the character Dr. Loomis, played by the late Donald Pleasence.

I have always been a big fan of Donald Pleasence and his work in the Halloween movies and I always though his character was super cool. Dr. Sam Loomis was a psychiatrist who cares for 6 yr old Michael Audrey Myers, who had murdered his older sister Judith one Halloween night. Loomis becomes convinced that the boy is pure evil and tries desperately to get him committed to a maximum security facility. He appeared in Halloween, Halloween II, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers,and Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. Sadly, Donald Pleasence died on Feb. 2, 1995 at the age of 75 from heart failure complications following surgery. Let's remember the great Donald Pleasence and the character Dr. Loomis on this Halloween weekend!

Check out a highlight video below featuring a character tribute to Dr. Loomis with some of his best scenes.
