    With every atrocious new Halloween film that comes out, Halloween 5 just gets pushed higher and higher up the rankings.
    It’s now solid mid to high tier when it used to be bottom tier. 5 bros, we’re winning the fricking long con. 5 is gonna be top percentile after this stinker drops.

          Not really. Jamie is a traumatised nutcase for the entire film and is only able to even speak again at the end. The ending of 4 factors heavily into the plot of the film.

          >doesn't build up tension well, with evenly spaced "kills" like the generic slasher formula
          I disagree. The scene with Tina in the car with Michael thinking he is her boyfriend is one of the best most well plotted sequences in the franchise.
          >over-exposes the villain too early, practically right off the bat
          I agree. Michael bobbing down the river is pretty funny to me. However this points to the strengths of the rest of the movie, as he is largely absent from the rest of it and stalking scenes always focus on the victims, not Michael.

          Every unnecessary horror sequel has to undermine the prior movie’s ending to justify its existence. Halloween 5 dampens Halloween 4’s cool ending. H4 feels stupid because of how final Michael’s death in H2 was. H2’s existence obviously cheapens the effect of H1’s ending.

            After rewatching the movies so many times out of sequence (I don’t rewatch in order I just watch a random one whenever I feel like watching it in particular) I’ve gained the superpower to just treat them as their own movies in a bubble. Watching Loomis die in 5 is so much more resonant when you don’t have it on your head that he’s going to return in the next one.

          There is Cult of Thorn content in 5. The symbol is on Myer's hand and the film cuts to a stranger in a black coat multiple times. 5 sets up the Cult of Thorn stuff in 6. Despite the cult stuff, Curse of Michael Myers is still much better than 5 because the chases, stalks, actors, cinematography, music and action is better. 5 only has one very good scene and it's the chase through the cornfield.

            Incorrect. The shit that is in 6 was not conceived of at the stage of 5’s creation, which went into production without a finished script. The man in black wasn’t meant to be anybody when they filmed it and neither was the symbol. The makers of 5 just put that in and trusted whoever made the next one to write lore around it.
            5 only suffers from the cult moronation if your for some reason allow a retconning sequel to take precedence over a prior film

              That doesn't make it any better. The cult thing is a natural extension of what they showed in 5. What else do you write? It was all unnecessary and bad but the only real solution for Curse of Michael Myers would be to completely ignore the thorn stuff in 5.

                He needs some kind of motivation despite it being hollow or pointless. There has to been some kind of end goal, otherwise the plot doesn't build up to anything. The 'final girl' being a target works very well, which is why the sister thing works even if some people don't like it. At the same time that goal also has no real purpose to it, it's still ultimately senseless.

                It's senseless because there's no motive. He doesn't know these people, doesn't care for them and just kills them because that's his nature. He also has no modus operandi or doesn't get any type of gratification from killing like all serial killers do. He just kills and then moves on.

                I do get your point about he may have a logic to his mania that we, rational humans can't see because we have souls, so to speak, whereas Micheal doesn't.

                michael being chalked up to just pure evil is potentially cope for dr. loomis' own failures in treating him but it also could be that he spoke his truth and a modern society that attempts to understand that pure evil is the one at fault. this is why the original michael myers element is very strong in the original movie because it has these layers baked in, helped out by john carpenter's strong direction and understanding of the material.

                The original mask was just a Captain Kirk mask painted white. The mask from 1 and 2 was the same, but by 1988 it was lost (or maybe just too deteriorated) and they couldn't find a matching mask from a show that was nearly 20 years finished by then. They've basically been trying to recreate the original mask since.

            You are ignoring the angle where Loomis talks about him as though he is evil incarnate and then Myers runs off after being ventilated and falling off a balcony. If Myers was just a man, then his survival and super-strength after being catatonic for over a decade is inexplicable.

        It’s possible to keep the supernatural vibe - preternatural strength, low-grade healing factor, oblivious to pain - and still keep it grounded. All they have to do is build off what Carpenter’s films suggested - that the Shape is a supernatural entity that dwells in Myers, and it feeds on misery and fear. That would explain why he doesn’t wantonly kill all the time. Killing is just a means to an end, and that end is remaining Haddonfield’s bogeyman.

          i think teasing a supernatural element is good for flavor and atmosphere in the first 2 movies but spelling it out as the later movies do was a huge mistake.

            Completely agree.

            Also checked.

            To elaborate, I’m not saying that we have some exposition dump from some mystic/occult expert or something, just that the writers need to keep that in mind when writing the character. For instance, the abominable final scene in the last one plays out totally differently if Myers enters the street, sees the mob, then just goes totally inert, because killing all those potent sources of fear would be counter to the Shape’s purposes. He gets beaten to “death,” the meat wagon picks him up, then the following morning, residents of Haddonfield wake up to the news that the ambulance never reached the hospital and Myers is nowhere to be found.

              >it’s another anon writes a better script than Hollywood episode
              but tbh I found that situation dumb in the first place that he would even be around those people. in the first movie, it’s just a random mask that he picked up at the store, and he gets a little flustered when Laurie pulls it off him. In kills the hack writers have him literally fricking abandon someone he’s been following for 2 films now to go and chase someone through the neighbourhood for his beloved mask. she should have tempted him with the mask and he should have ignored it.

        Michael was A L W A Y S supernatural. There's a reason why he's credited as "The Shape". When Loomis talks about how he's the embodiment of evil and the boogeyman you're supposed to take him literally, he's not waxing poetic

      F13/Jason movies don't have the legacy that the Halloween series has hanging over their heads. The series sticks to formula, throws in a gimmick, and just delivers on Jason. In those regards its a more consistent series than most horror series.

      Only the Thorn lore is bad and that's because it's necessary and fricks over the mystic of the unknowable evil. Everything else about Curse is good except for the culmination of the final confrontation. 5 is just a much inferior rehash of 4 with a different babysitter and every element of it aside from cornfield chase is inferior. The script, casting and music is horrible.

        >Only the Thorn lore is bad and that's because it's necessary and fricks over the mystic of the unknowable evil.
        No. The Thorne storyline is fine. It was initially a great way to give the series some sort of deeper meaning and a tool to drive the plot. The problem was that it wasn't done correctly and wasn't thought of ahead of time. As a result, they had cliffhangers but no idea where they were going with with cliffhanger.
        >Everything else about Curse is good except for the culmination of the final confrontation.
        No it was a popcorn film with strictly inferior characters to every other movie.
        >5 is just a much inferior rehash of 4 with a different babysitter and every element of it aside from cornfield chase is inferior.
        No it was a pretty good movie up until the cornfield scene that obviously was too long. 5 only suffers from being rushed and making really questionable decisions. Meanwhile 6 was nearly a franchise killer.
        The script, casting and music is horrible.

      I like this one the most. It actually ties the plot into Halloween and its origin extremely tightly. Halloween is when the barrier between the material and spiritual is thinned and things can cross over for a time. An unknowable evil possessing someone at this time checks out. The first killing is of his sister, so trying to kill the other sisters is basically ritual reenactment. That relates to cycles, like the Celtic calendar, yearly coming of Samhain, the end of the year, the slaughtering of animals before the oncoming winter, the bloodshed of the culling. The unknowable evil reenacting bloodshed deeply relates to Halloween. It's tight as frick, mythgays know.

      His notive in the first one is by far the most terrifying, but it's only inferred from Loomis's conversations with the sheriff. Michael is doing precisely what he's been fantasizing about doing for his entire imprisonment.

      It's not killing his family and the sexy teen bit is incidental. He just picked someone, followed them through their day, then killed everyone in their circle that he could easily get to. He then drove that target to the house where he'd displayed them all for her to discover. Michael had no intention of killing her until she'd seen that. And it had nothing to do with finding her sexy ordome sort of familial connection.

      He killed the dig because he was hungry. He picked Laurie because she was convenient. It could have been anyone; she just won the lotto.

      the part with kid Jason in the first film is a dream. 6 months later in part 2 he’s a grown man so there’s no real way to place that part in any other context than as a dream. in part 3 someone has the same kind of dream but about ms voorhees (who she’s never met or seen) so we can only conclude that they are supernatural in nature. like visions or something.
