I don't get why some people tend to think Michael was "just a guy" in the original then was made out to be more than that later on. How many regular dudes do you know can lift a full grown man with one arm, relocate a large tombstone by himself without any equipment, get stabbed in the neck, stabbed in the gut, shot 6 times, fall out a window and just walk away? Not to mention Loomis flat out told us he isn't just a man, he's purely and simply evil. The way I see it he was just discovering his capabilities as time went on.

I saw Halloween II (1981) as a kid when it first aired on cable. I actually saw it before I saw the original but there were so many callbacks to the first film I was left wondering "what the hell happened in that other movie?"

It can definitely be argued that Devils Rejects was his best. Of his worst: gotta say Lord's of Salem

[@carybeweary7209]

The cowboy kid that Micheal walks into in the original Halloween 2 is Dick Warlock’s son

I've always 100% justified Michael's acting in Halloween II as him being EXTREMELY injured lmao. I've always found H2 '81 to be extremely eerie, and I still do. I do have a tough time picking between that and Halloween 2018 as my favorite Halloween II. Zombieween II is the worst movie I have ever seen.

If you keep going with this you’ll get to “best 5th movie in a Halloween timeline” and the only option will be Halloween 6

[@JoeMama-tl4tr]

1981 is the only good Halloween sequel. The Ben Tramer scene is the greatest moment in slasher movie history

[@darrenhood4033]

It was interesting to be a kid in the 1990s because Halloween II was out of print for much of the decade. It wouldn't be until 1996-1997 when Goodtimes released their budget VHS of the film when I saw it. The local video store also only had Halloween, Halloween 4-5 and the current Curse of Michael Myers for rent. So it doesn't surprise me that a lot of people wouldn't see Halloween II until their teenage years, because by the time we were that age, Halloween II was readily available by Universal on DVD and it became a streaming favorite as well.

[@doctorsleep1980]

Great vid! I love seeing Tony with Sean and Joe. Halloween II is definitely my favourite of the franchise next to Halloween III. I read the reason why Dick Warlock moved slower and like a robot was because Debra Hill told him he was doing good and to keep doing that. Then years later she said that was all him which pissed Warlock off, I dont blame him for being pissed at that

[@ryanspengler4877]

Joe as Donald Pleasence is something that makes my life better... Also, "Hack the Movie Dumpster" needs to be a thing. Add Johanna to this lineup and there's the show, then rotate in all the regulars. Perfek. And @ 01:02:00 Have these guys NOT done Hard Boiled and Stranglehold?!

Personally I enjoyed the original Halloween 2…namely the beginning and end. It’s a guilty pleasure but not much really happens to warrant the movie sequel…more like a long, fun epilogue.

[@Dohsoda]

I still think the "Halloween III" horror anthology movie was the best way to take this series. The franchise could have been much more creative than it ended up being.

[@Assimandeli]

Great episode, great cast too! Always cool to see the dumpster guys in hack the movies

[@themadpancaker]

The original Halloween 2 is my favorite, and probably my favorite of the Michael Myers sequels. While I enjoyed 2018, Michael doesn't seem to follow the same cat and mouse approach methodically stalking his victims like he did in the original, which hurts its premise in my eyes. I can certainly appreciate the gore and spectacle of it, but they wanted to ignore the other sequels and then turned him into Jason Voorhees again with just wanton slaughter for no reason. Plus, the film is a waste of Toby Huss. The man killed fifty men and his major contribution to the film was a crouch joke. 🤦‍♂️

[@backforblood3421]

Halloween II 1981 is my favorite movie in the franchise, with only Season Of The Witch possibly tied with it.

[@kevinclark5802]

I've always wondered about Halloween 3. People act like it's such a great movie but people hate it because Michael Myers isn't in it, but the fact it has the Halloween 3 name has immortalized it forever, if it had just been called Season of the Witch, it would just be another B level horror film from the 80's that nobody remembers. So that is the best example of a positive/negative effect on something.

[@Zebojr2kool]

I disagree, I think if it had been called Season of the Witch, it would have achieved “cult” status. I means it’s got that same carpenter vibe that makes a good cult film. IMOOC

Hands down Halloween II '81. Although a bit slow at times it is a worthy sequel with the look and feel of the original that adds to the original storyline..........in '81, they got rid of the Michael driving around nonsense and the cheesy dialogue...

[@foroneanotherwinningtogeth1142]

[@legendary.super.shannon9699]

@01:12:45 I've heard several people say they didn't like the scene in _2018_ w/Michael dropping all the teeth over the door of the stall while that Podcaster girl is poopin', but that was probably my favorite thing they did w/him in _2018._ I was honestly a bit disappointed when there weren't more instances of Michael fucking w/people & being super creepy in _Kills_ nor _Ends..._ I love that aspect of the character; as they portray him in a way that he's not just a _"shark"_ (as Carpenter has called him) nor a mindless killing machine. Instead, he gets off on causing panic, terror, & grief & implements a level of theatrics/artistry w/in the murders, & it fits into the vibe of that film particularly well.

[@douggherkin]

I really like all 3 movies. ...but the best of those 3 is Halloween 2018. It is the best because it has stolen and tweaked several key scenes from some of the previous movies as well as adding in some great new scenes of its own. ....The best scene in the 2018 movie is without doubt the opening at Smith's Grove which automatically breaks into Carpenters new updated Halloween theme tune.

[@Hero11170]

The original

[@andrewz732]

Definitely Halloween 2018 because it stays the closest to John Carpenter’s original and makes Micheal scarier when he doesn’t have a motive and just kills anyone he come in contact with

[@UFAPAN199X]

Actually in Halloween Ends, the bully that gets his face set on fire, is supposed to be Ben's grandson or a relative. In the book it goes more into details.

[@jemofthe80s18]

Since Dr. Loomis is literally my reason for watching ALL of the movies WITH him, NOT Michael or Laurie...I only TRULY care about the ones with him anyway, and the original II has his great Samhain speech, his look into the night after he touches the blood on the grass, and how he shoots Michael while Laurie cowers in fear behind him;) I'd care more about the supporting characters in all of them if they were HIS family since HE'S the actual hero. In Zombie's, he actually made Laurie a lot like me, and I really cared about what she went through, but he took EVERYTHING out of 2 that was about her trying to get through life and focused WAY too much on Michael and fodder. The new trilogy totally fails by not taking advantage of the new timeline to rewrite old characters now that Laurie is part of it, especially that it wasn't Jamie faking Michael out when she shot him...not to mention that all of Dr. Loomis from 2 to 6 and his willingness to lay down his life to save others has been WIPED OUT and they turned Laurie into him instead. BAD MOVE:/
