[@dylanrea6728]

The flashback mask in Halloween kills is the best one they’ve made.

[@Stefan_Gerards]

by far the best recreation of the 1978 mask! my second favorite already, right behind the OG mask

[@Zack_410]

I think I like the regular Kills mask. Just how charred it is I really love it.

Facts

[@magethegamer7655]

I honestly think Halloween Kills is one of my more favorite Halloween movies, although it's probably more of a guilty pleasure. There are LOTS of problems script wise, but I think some of the moments in the movie in terms of acting are pretty golden. And this is imo the best Micheal Myers we have ever seen, and with a kick ass mask to go along with it!

[@2easy2hard56]

I think its the best Halloween movie,who cares about a story in a slasher movie,its all abou the kills and that movie delivers

[@magethegamer7655]

@@2easy2hard56 exactly!

[@Zack_410]

Yeah in the middle it gets a little weak but the opening and end i have no complaints about. It goes for brutality over suspense which I like since it makes sense. I think some of the hate from fans might stem from that fact.

I would've been happy if Mikey wore the bandages and hospital gown all throughout Halloween 4.

[@JazziG59]

He should’ve done that, maybe donned the mask again at the end to set up the next movie.

[@BareBandSubscription]

That’s become a pretty popular observation of this movie in recent years, at least in regards to the bandages. I happen to agree on that part, largely because of how badly they botched the mask they went with. Not to mention, with how safe Halloween 4 plays things, it would have been pretty bold for the time to bring back the iconic villain that the series was famous for, without the visage that makes him iconic. Surely, people wouldn’t have appreciated it at the time, but whatever.

[@jamieward3260]

Same looked way more intimidating.

[@danielrierson6683]

The mask was data from Star Trek lol

[@GingerZombie29]

I would say no to the hospital gown, but the bandages? Yes.

[@izzym5165]

I agree, I love James Jude Courtney’s Michael. He’s basically pulled all the best parts from past portrayals into one performance.

[@3twelve206]

The 2018 mask is awesome and amplified by the awesome portrayal by James Jude Courtney. He kills it as Michael and closest to the original. I really think that his acting has a lot to do with how awesome that mask is.

[@cxrrupt1]

The original (CLEAN VERSION) of the shape’s mask in Halloween 2007 was a really good mask too

[@NPS2204]

My personal favourite is either the Original 1978 mask or the updated 2018 version, the burnt variant is Halloween Kills would probably be third.

[@MrImastinker]

I agree, the bandaged-face look in Halloween 4 has really grown on me. If he'd spent like half the movie wearing it, then we get a scene of him donning the classic white-face mask again, that would have been so cool.

[@Xehanort10]

[@balor325]

Something about the mask in Halloween 4 not only looking incredibly cheap but being picked up by Michael at a store called The Discount Mart is hilarious to me. I don’t know if that was intentional but it sure is funny

[@Xinityxx]

From what I know The masks in 4 are the same as the one in the original just not altered as well that's why the pink one shows up too its just an un altered shatner mask

[@Xehanort10]

9:50 That image would probably be Michael's reaction to watching Resurrection. "What? You're telling me in the next film Busta Rhymes will karate kick me through a window?"

[@christianthomas738]

Man the first Rob Zombie mask scared the hell out of me as a kid. Still my favorite

[@BareBandSubscription]

Zombie’s “Shape” is just underrated, in my opinion. Regardless of what anyone thinks of those movies, Tyler Mane as Michael, in _that_ mask, is genuinely really menacing and intimidating.

[@Gottico69]

@@BareBandSubscription actually my favorite look is the one for the first movie of Rob Zombie and I believe the 2009 movie is Among the better ones.

[@thebogeymaniscoming]

@@BareBandSubscription I wouldn’t consider Rob Zombie’s Michael Myers “The Shape”. He’s not in the shadows, he’s not an emotionless person, etc. In RZ he’s just a tall serial killer.

[@jasonvoorhees310]

Fun fact: the H5 mask was actually a mold of Special effects artist Greg Nicataro. Most famous for K&B effects and TWD. So thats why the mask looks the way it does.

[@genxgaming6881]

That intro 🤣 made me spit out my water. Great review as always!

[@Tom-tk8qp]

I think the HKills mask is my favourite because i loved the 2018 mask but I like the new one a bit better because of how the burns and the bullet hole show what Micheal has endured since the 2018 movie, just as the 2018 mask shows how it and Micheal have both aged since the 1978 movie. Awesome video btw 🎃

[@Maniax7517]

Hands down my favorite intro ever 🤣

[@EricOlson496]

see just as you hate it for the same reasons, i personally love the H4 mask. i think it may be nostalgic for me..as it was the first Halloween movie i saw. despite some scenes where i feel it’s actually the mechanic suit or the actors portrayal ruining it, i love how blank this mask is. pure emotionless

[@Bobbywoodhogan]

That opening 😂😂😂😂 loved it Cody, you’re awesome dude

[@Xehanort10]

19:51 It was probably kept in an evidence locker for decades explaining the aged look making it seem like it aged with Michael himself showing the connection. Like Aaron said it's part of him.

[@RushStriker9]

The Halloween Kills Mask is far and away my favorite. I thought it captured the spirit and atmos with a almost half and half look. Fantastic

[@damianmlinar2074]

I love the 2018 one and 2021 burnt mask, but you cant beat the original classic mask

[@PM-AM]

Halloween RZ,2018,and H2O Michael Myers masks were the greatest.

[@acrophobe]

Can't forget the role of the cinematographer in lighting all these masks, as well as the editing and scene blocking so that it's always seen from the best angle. That's why the reboot trilogy mask and the original look so good. They lit, shot and edited them appropriately to keep the eyes hidden or in shadow at almost all times in a natural looking way. A good looking horror movie mask requires a team effort, research and development, and trial and error to pull off correctly. But most of all it requires the people in charge of the movie to give a damn about their art and not just racing to get the cameras rolling to churn out a piece of crap product to cash in on an established horror IP.

[@mantrafishing]

So I’d like to say, love the reviews and rankings man but special shout out to the intro song haha love it🤘thanks for the great content dude

[@FaithStarLight28]

That intro has made my day! Cody, you’re brilliant!

[@1000000man1]

The story of the Pink mask is basically that they ordered a bunch of masks to paint white and darken the hair etc.. but they only did it with one and they briefly Lost it. When they found it, they had already done a couple of shots with the Pink mask. And the CGI one, apparently they used the wrong mask in the scene so instead of reshooting it or even Just leaving it as is, they put CGI over it.

[@oblivion31]

[@AlexTVFortitude]

that was the single best intro you have ever done and i have ever seen & it’s NO competition. 🤣🤣🙏🏻

[@MAMoreno]

I'm ranking the Shatner-style masks only, and I will sort them differently than you did. 1. The 1978 mask (Halloween, Halloween II, Halloween Kills flashbacks). While the mask does look a little different in the first sequel due to aging, and though the mask in the flashbacks of the newest film is a replica and not the original prop, these three versions are similar enough that I will treat them as one entity. It's the standard look by which all of the others are judged, so it's inevitably the top spot. 2. The Halloween Kills mask. While the design in the 2018 film felt like little more than a revised version of the 2007 mask, this one has more personality to it. I prefer a pristine mask in most cases, but it if has to be damaged, this is the way to do it. (An honorable mention also goes to the burned version of the Resurrection mask, but it never had a chance to feature in an entire scene, let alone an entire film.) 3. The Halloween Resurrection mask. Of all the attempts to make a genericized version of the Don Post Captain Kirk mask, this one was the most successful. It's clearly recognizable as Michael Myers, and it is perfectly unremarkable. That might not sound like a compliment, but the point is that it doesn't draw attention to itself. With all of the other sequel masks, I find myself taken out of the film a bit. 4. The Halloween 2018 mask (pre-burning). The sculpt is the best one ever made for a Halloween sequel, which is why I've ranked its clean version alongside the mask from the first two films. But the artificial aging makes the Shape's face look too busy. And then there's the fact that Rob Zombie had already gone in this direction two films earlier. The whole concept of the mask feels derivative as a result. 5. The Stan Winston H20 mask. This mask suffers more from the cinematography than it does from the sculpt, since it's almost always overlit. The features on the face are just about perfect, even if the eyeholes could stand to be slightly smaller. As with the Halloween 6 mask, the hair is teased out too much, but when it sits flat, it looks quite good. It's a solid mask let down by the filmmakers. 6. The 2007 mask. Again, I'm not a fan of the aged latex look for Michael Myers, but this mask gets credit for doing it first. As I said with the 2018 mask, I find the look too busy. I haven't ranked the clean version of the mask separately, but I might be inclined to put it between the Halloween Kills mask and the Resurrection mask. Then again, it looked silly on the head of a child, so that knocks it down a bit. 7. The Halloween 6 mask. Unlike the Halloween 5 mask, this one at least looks more or less like Michael Myers. And if its H20 variant were used throughout that film, I might have ranked it higher, as I think it looks better on Chris Durand than on George Wilbur. However, there's something about the texture of the mask that doesn't quite do it for me, and I don't care for the nose on it, either. Yeah, it's nitpicky. 8. The 2009 mask. For what the film was doing, it was fine. In fact, I was tempted to rank it above the 2007 mask for the same reason that I ranked the Halloween Kills mask over the 2018 mask: it has more personality to it, which makes the decision to depart from a clean look more justifiable. However, it's too far removed from the 1978 mask at this point, and I don't really see the Shape when I look at it. 9. The Halloween 4 mask. This one might be the greatest tragedy in the series. Unlike every mask after it, it's a genuine Don Post mask, so it should be up near the top of this list. However, the conversion job was done so poorly that it loses all of its defining features and ends up looking more like Commander Data than Captain Kirk. Even the unconverted pink-faced mask looks better than the finished one! 10. The Halloween 5 mask. The first of KNB's two Michael Myers masks establishes why they should've never been brought back for H20. This thing looks like it was made for a movie that was trying to imitate Halloween while staying legally distinct enough to avoid a lawsuit. The hairline is all wrong, the face is completely off, and the neck is far too big. But it might make for a good Brion James mask... 11. The KNB H20 mask. This is the mask that's so bad that it required the filmmakers to do reshoots. This is the mask that's so bad that it required a hastily-made CG replacement for a closeup shot. This the mask that's so bad that it acts as a constant distraction in the second act of a film that is otherwise the best Halloween sequel. This one mask nearly prevented Michael's comeback in 1998.

I agree with your top two for the same reasons but my third is the new one, even though I haven’t seen Halloween kills I saw the mask in the first trailer and fell in love with it immediately, the 2018 mask plus the burns just make it look like Myers is not fucking around and from what I hear the kills say the same

[@TheNightmareMan81]

Actually smoke rises and and nick castle kept it on top of a fire place and that’s what caused the mask to look that way. The best way to store laytex masks is actually in a box under a bed and out of the light.
