I just picked up Halloween on Criterion LD, and I'd like to get the others on DVD. Which are the "definitive" versions...I see there have been a few different releases.

Thx in advance...

Get the Special Edition of 1,and the Extended Edition(TV version).Which is what makes up the 2-disc limited edition.
The Universal version of Halloween 2(If anamorphic isn't a concern,get the goodtimes version for about $5).The goodtimes version of 3 you should find for a bout $5 also.
Anchor Bay's Halloween 4&5(make sure 4 is the rerelease)
And so on.
2,3(Goodtimes),6 and H20 are non-anamorphic,though.

The main ones that I'm concerned with at the moment are 4 and 5...both of which seem to have LE releases. Are they worth it?

The only extras in the LE tins are a booklet and the tin packaging itself. The discs are exactly the same. As Esten suggested, though, make sure you go for the anamorphic re-release of Part 4.

Just a reminder: Anchor Bay is working on yet another version of the first Halloween, to be released next year to mark the film's 25th anniversary.
