His Halloween 2 was pure trash though.

My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, 'If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.'. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- 'Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your post gave me cancer anyway.

as long as you ignore halloween 6, the reason for his actions is that he just snapped one day. maybe his sister getting porked was the trigger.

I don't think there's supposed to be a reason for him. He's just evil and likes to kill people. Even as a little boy.

I know the sequels tried to give more of an explanation but fuck them.

It didn't imply anything. The reveal that it's her younger brother is meant to be a shock. The psychiatrist says he isn't someone or something you can understand.

he means the patients as the asylum. figured they were out because either
A) myers let them out to make it easier to steal the car.
B) it fit the insane asylum theme.

I'm a frequent guest on a podcast about movies, so I had to rewatch ALL of the Halloween movies this month.

This week we're finishing with Halloween H20 and Resurrection (and then seeing the new one), but of the ones I've watched:

1> 3> 6 > Halloween II (Zombie one) > 2 >>4 > 5 > Halloween 1 (Zombie)

I think he means the patients at Smith's Grove. And I think the answer is that Michael let them out. People forget that he's very smart. Quite methodical.

One of the biggest criticisms about the Zombie reboot was that he tried to humanize Myers, giving him a back story to give a reason reason why he snapped. Carpenter intended for Myers to have no reason or purpose to why he was the way he was. Thats the true horror of the story...a seemingly normal eight year old just decides to butcher his sister on Halloween night.

Just going off how I enjoyed them (and 6 being better than 2/4/5 is definitely inflated from watching the first 5 in a short time span). To note, I'm not inherently a slasher fan, so the staleness of the formula got to me.

1 is obviously the most well made of all of them. 3 was very entertaining, because of its convoluted plot and stuff (though almost shouldn't be in the ordering). 6 tried to actually change up the formula a little by adding some more elements to the story (not just Myers vs people and police) and was better paced than 2,4,5. Halloween II (Zombie, director's cut) gets the closest to the ideal Halloween movie, which is exploring the actual ramifications of the aftermath of Myers.

2,4, and 5 are essentially the same movie. 2 at least tries to liven it up with the Friday the 13th style "guitar solo kills", but 4 and 5 are just fairly dull and all three of them have the same pacing problem, where about an hour in it just suddenly drops off. 4 versus 5 is sort of not important, I might waffle back and forth between those.

Lastly, Halloween I (Zombie) has Rob Zombie taking two movies he wanted to make (Michael the younger years and a remake of the original), taking about half of each of them and cramming them together. The only good stuff is the first half, and that's not even that good.

Just my opinion though, I imagine that people who are big fans of horror movies enjoy other aspects of the films that change the ordering.

the backstory was stupid, but the more emotional myers was interesting. you could see his anger while he was doing his killing, he was less of a zombie.

TBF, he was trying to have him be (as Malcolm McLoomis says in his presentation) "the perfect blend of nurture and nature". His home life contributed, but Zombie also takes steps at various points to show the nature side of him as well. When he kills Danny Trejo despite being very friendly to him and defending him, it's supposed to subvert our expectations.

Its supposed to be a misdirect, nothing more. Youre expecting it to be a jealous stalker or a lover whos been cheated on, but it ends up just being a bloodthirsty six-year-old.

I'm a big fan of the original two, but I still say the first Zombie remake is better than all but those two. Admittedly I haven't seen 3 since it doesn't have Mike, but the rest were terrible with the thorn cult bullshit. It ruined the mystique around him since he was just supposed to be a bogeyman. The only reason Carpenter was even involved as a producer after the original was because his agent told him they were going to make the movies with or without him so he might as well make some cash.

The second Zombie movie is ass though. Not as bad as Resurrection, but that bar ain't high. I'm looking forward to watching the new one tomorrow.
