I liked George P. Wilbur's Michael Myers because I kicked his butt for a while there! Don Shanks was a sweetie, especially during the death scene which was less than pleasant.
[on Donald Pleasence] Donald was a consummate pro, soft-spoken with a wonderful, quiet sense of humor, which you need during night shoots!

[on Halloween 5 (1989)] Obviously, what I took away from the Halloween experience was under Dwight H. Little's direction. I still get a kick of Rachel running through her yard in Halloween 5 wrapped in a towel, and getting Mr. Cornish to help her. I always think of Cornish Game Hens!

Acting was something I knew I wanted to do even before I started kindergarten. It just kept being a reoccurring theme throughout my school years; it became part of my personal identity. I was never, however, a musical comedy gal. I remember being in a one-person show in grade school called "The Last Flower" about being the last living thing on Earth; it felt so cutting edge at the time and was such a privilege to do something so enjoyable and seemingly edgy!
Ellie took her daughter to see the semi-finals of American Idol (2002) and while waiting in line they approached Carrie Underwood for an autograph, who immediately recognized her and exclaimed "Oh, my God! You're in Halloween 4: Final Cut (2001)!" Ellie's daughter was extremely impressed.

During the famous rooftop scene in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988), Ellie accidentally slipped and her torso was cut by a large nail. Even after losing a large amount of blood, she went right back and finished the scene a few minutes later. Co-stars said, "It didn't even faze her."
