At the very end of the first film, Loomis arrives just in time to stop Michael from killing Laurie in the upstairs bedroom of the home. The doctor shoots him a number of times and Michael stumbles backwards through the room's glass doors and right over the balcony outside, falling to his "death." Of course, when Loomis peers over the edge to get a look at Michael's body, the killer has miraculously disappeared. The same thing happens in the new film, only in reverse — Michael attacks Laurie in the second floor of her home and sends her flying out the window, crashing into the yard below. But in a great wink to Carpenter's film, Laurie's body disappears a few seconds later.
