Michael Audrey Myers is the cursed boy who, after slashing up his older sister on Halloween in 1963, has terrorized his small home town with recurrent rampages lasting through the end of the 20th century. Throughout the mainline Halloween films, we are given bits and pieces of information about Michael's origin, his history, the cult that made him what he is and how he actually operates.
In this video I'll be going over the ORIGINAL chronological life of Michael Myers, doing a complete breakdown and analysis of the character, discussing what his true motivations are, how his human side battled against his cursed side, why he went after Laurie Strode and her family, and what his ultimate fate may have been.
This will cover the entire original timeline of the character, which consists of the Babysitter M*rders in Halloween (1978), the Haddonfield Memorial Hospital attacks in Halloween II (1981), the third coming of Michael in Halloween IV: The Return of Michael Myers (1988), the capture of Michael in Halloween V: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989) and the finale in Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995).
I will be including the lost footage from the "deleted scenes" in the made for TV version of Halloween. I will also mention the non-canon Chaos Comics: Halloween material and analyze that, with the caveat that I will not officially count that as part of Michael's canon story.
This will go over every single detail from the movies, so get ready for the ultimate analysis of Michael's life!!

Interesting fact the actor who played Michael in the gas station during Halloween 4 also played Leather-face and Jason meaning he got to play all three of these iconic characters
When did he play LeatherFace?
@@Batwing20293 he was a stunt double for him during the bridge scene in the second film
Heres a better interesting fact: The Roman Empire fulfilled the Role of The beast from the sea in Revelation 13 (Revelation 17 confirms that it is Rome). With that in mind we can conclude that A) The world leaders and governments have been conspiring together for the last 2500 years to fulfill the roadmap that is in the Bible B) Jesus is the Son of God and can tell the future or make it happen. The fact that Biblical prophecy is still unfolding (such as the rebirth of Israel in 1948 or the coming digital currency) should raise some flags. Repent of your sins now and pray for God to intervene in your life. The world as we know it is headed towards destruction. If you have any questions about scripture feel free to ask me
@@FreightmareFTW Shut up.
@@FreightmareFTW ,what a crock of shit,and you also used the word "interesting" wrong at the beginning of your sermon,because it definatly is NOT!!!!!
It must be tricky for Michael to sneak around when he has an orchestra following him around
Yez

LOL!
👏
😂
The fact that he dressed up as bob and even used the glasses proves to me that Michael definitely has a sense of humor. Add his car to the mix and Annie would definitely love that guy
He doesn't have a "sense of humour". He obviously did it as a way of fooling with her, tormenting her psychologically before he kills her, because to her, that "Bob" moron just randomly snapped out of the blue (They both deserved to die anyway, the losers). If anything, he wants to torment them and confuse them as a way of making them suffer first.
I know the curse bit sounds silly, but this iteration of Michael Myers is absolutely terrifying. Seemingly limitless invincibility and strength combined with his lack of emotion and total disregard for life, not to mention that he has no motive but to kill his entire bloodline, makes him an absolutely horrifying foe.
Also makes him a shite character
@@bossslayergaming8937 do yk shite is a different version of shit?
But… he does, doesn’t he? The entire motive of murdering his family line is to be free from Thorn and gain his self back. This isn’t technically evil, is it? The 40 Year Timeline one is without a doubt evil, but this one… idk?
@@mul-el3657dude I thought his motive was just killing all the females in his bloodline due to his issues with his mother
Agreed
The fact the original timeline is split into 3 seperate timelines.
It's like Final Destination this series.
@@METALFREAK03 Not really the Final Destination all takes place in the same universe the original Halloween movies don't.
The only horror series timeline more complicated than Halloween is Texas Chainsaw Massacre. All the sequels to the original 1974 film are alternate follow ups to the first one that ignore each other. 4 original series continuities with the prequel to the remake and the remake itself being a separate 5th one.
Personally I really like 2003 and the prequel the most
@@nerdscore6756 lmao that’s not true, there’s split timelines in final destination
I think that when the woman said "he walks amongst us, brother. he's back and he's very angry" means that she sensed that the original Micheal Myers finally got the control over his own body (for a moment, I suppose) and he drew all his will and strength to kill those who placed a course on him in order to get revenge for making him kill his sister and all those people against his will and right after killing them, he was consumed by the curse once again ☺️
I find this very interestong so like he himself wasnt the real bad guy it was the curse
@@ghostgamingxd7881 yes because, One time when the mask was removed, his niece saw him cry even though the face is still. like you're having the emotions but can't move on your own
@@libertmooreomambatbetita9502 yeah thats a great point
I always thought it was him just going "Wait why the hell do I have to listen to you?"
Time stamp?
I always wondered if during Halloween 2, all the clues Michael left was a piece of his humanity hoping someone would catch on and try to stop him.
Jamie is one of my favorite characters in the series because she brings a fresh take to the movies. She doesn’t want to kill Michael, she wants to reconcile with him because she knows his true self is still there somewhere. She seems a lot like Michael, atleast in the sense that she can relate to him kind of, idk I just like it
Hello do you believe in Jesus?
His true self Is PURE EVIL
@@robogreek3157not necessarily true. He was normal up until the curse was placed on him.
@@sagewarren8431In the H20 and BlumHouse timeline he isn’t.
As someone that survived nearly being crushed to death, I can attest, it's genuinely one of the worst experiences. First, you get the nice bit of pain. Second you stop being able to physically breath as you can't inflate your lungs. And all that comes with it. Was horrible. I got lucky and the wind shifted enough rubble after the tornado that caused the entire thing, that I was able to breath once again. But words can't describe how terrible it was.
Damn that sounds horrible glad to know you survived. 👏🏾
@@wadepower1 Thank you. Yeah, I nearly died 3 or 4 times that night. I'm divided on if I was super lucky, or really misfortunate. But that's its own conversation.
@@NeiasaurusCreations No I got it. You're wondering if you were lucky to have survived or if you were incredibly unlucky to have had to go through the experience to begin with.
@@amyschildgamerlive4519 Not quite. I'm unlucky enough to have survived. Because of the permenant spinal damage, I'm in constant agony every minute of every day. With heavy pain meds like fentanyl and morphine cutting like 10-25% of my pain tops. And other things like pot doing nothing for me. I also deal with nerve damage to my entire right side. I can only do a fraction of the physical stuff I used to do before. So when I say I'm unlucky, I mean that I'm unlucky it didn't finish the job. Instead leaving me half-dead, in constant suffering for the rest of my life with no chance it'll ever get better. If anything this is the best years I'll have, before I get older and secondary conditions start setting in, and I become more and more resistant to the heavy pain meds I rely on for any type of quality of life. Eventually coming to a point where they'll do practically nothing, and my pain will over take any treatment options I have. I wish it would've just finished the job, saved me decades of suffering pointlessly.
@@NeiasaurusCreations Well that took a much darker turn than I thought. My apologies.
Are we not talking about how this man just came after our pronunciation of the word crayon so aggressively?!
Halloween Ends - Back Home th-cam.com/video/uptXdfr0SVY/w-d-xo.html # Isolation ...................
Incorrectly came after our proper pronunciation**
Who the fuck says "creyen" talk about sounding snooty as hell.
Lol never thought I was saying it wrong
I know right
I like to think that Michael was a normal kid before Halloween 1963. I've heard different takes on it, but to me it's more mysterious that way than that he was always a psychopath.
Just a little theory if you don't mind: did you ever think that Michael was kinda relieved that he was freed from the curse but was actually pissed off because he doesn't really have a family to go back to or he just goes back to the psychiatric hospital where he spent all of his childhood and didn't really get the actual 'normal' experience what other people have already experienced through child to adult years. I mean i'd be pissed too if I just killed my whole family just to break the curse because then that means I won't be taught what actually it means to be human being. So what was Michael really doing all this for? other than just trying to break the curse of thorn or he just has a mind of 6 year old boy and was just easily manipulated? Idk what do you think?
CZsWrold out here continuing the post Halloween season
Hello
Halloween Ends - Back Home th-cam.com/video/uptXdfr0SVY/w-d-xo.html # Isolation ....................
Halloween is every day if you believe
I know this is nitpicking but I've always wondered how Judith, a 15-17 year old, couldn't overpower Michael when he was just 6 years old?
He was cursed by the curse of thorn so that made him stronger which is also why he’s unrealistically strong once he’s an adult.
If i remember correctly, Michael attached her form back
@@VergilEdits He attacked her front on. She could've kicked him in the stomach and push him to the ground and escape.
@@robtz759 Personally, I would've aimed just a little further south. That'll stop damn near *any* male in his tracks. 😆
Whether you follow the Curse of Thorn and/or MM being purely and simply Evil, he would be capable of overpowering her and others
There is a comic series that reveals what happened to Michael Myers after. Michael found out that Laurie faked her death, similar to the H20 timeline, and he went to find her again. This time, she beheads him, similar to the ending of H20. But unlike the H20 timeline where it was revealed to be a paramedic under the mask, Laurie in the original timeline truly does succeed in killing Michael. However, with Laurie being traumatized, she puts on Micheal's mask and becomes just like him. Laurie would later be caught and sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium. All what Laurie ever does anymore while there is just stare out her window just like Michael used to do when he was there.
Really?
That's dope
Halloween 2 (1981) is actually my favorite in the franchise. For me they got everything perfect. From the atmosphere to the music to the creepy factor everything was hitting
H2 is #1!
Nothing tops the original.
@@robogreek3157 I disagree. Halloween 2 certainly tops the Original. It's certainly scarier anyway.
Dick Warlock plays Micheal Myers he also plays a killer robot in Halloween III Season Of The Witch.
Halloween 2 is my 2nd least favorite lol. But i get why someone would like it.
Here's a little theory: I think that after Michael killed Jamie, the curse took over that final human part of him. Turning him into pure unfiltered evil. The cult believed that after Michael killed his bloodline, he would be relieved of the curse.
(this theory has a lot of holes so bear with me.) But instead it drove him to pure evil, in effect turning him into a demon/pure evil.
Here is something that is not a theory: The Roman Empire fulfilled the Role of The beast from the sea in Revelation 13 (Revelation 17 confirms that it is Rome). With that in mind we can conclude that A) The world leaders and governments have been conspiring together for the last 2500 years to fulfill the roadmap that is in the Bible B) Jesus is the Son of God and can tell the future or make it happen. The fact that Biblical prophecy is still unfolding (such as the rebirth of Israel in 1948 or the coming digital currency) should raise some flags. Repent of your sins now and pray for God to intervene in your life. The world as we know it is headed towards destruction. If you have any questions about scripture feel free to ask me
Belief in Jesus alone does not give you eternal life, you have to obey Him and become born again John 3:3, John 3:36
I don’t think so, mainly because he never killed Jamie’s baby. That baby continues his timeline. I think it would be him under the influence of the curse, or fighting back against it going savage. He’s been cursed his whole life so Michael Myers. If he was not ‘cursed’ for even a second he probably is still a very angry man with a knife. He knows nothing else. Cool theory tho!
@@FreightmareFTW bruh stop trying to force people to believe in God
@@angelothehorrorfan5013👍
@@FreightmareFTW da fuck does this have to do with micheal meyers?
Consider this Michael is severely traumatized by what he's been forced to do. Hence, why he never speaks and is so introverted. It was the demon that forced him to kill all those people but Michael is still inside fighting it. That would explain why he doesn't kill some people and times. You could argue that the picture and writing at the school were actually warnings from Michael trying to fight back. What other purpose would there be for him to do this? This even explains his slow pace.
What if in the new movie they uncurse him somehow and he realizes all that he does and he finally talks or soemthing
@@pg_krampus5489 finally someone who thinks like I think.
Some people have made the claim that he is an insensitive autistic man, incapable of any genuine feeling but somehow loves the feeling of flesh being either cut or flayed by him. Which has some sort of weird sense he was purposely stabbing someone in this latest movie over and over again.
@@Andromeda1741 yessir
@@pg_krampus5489 the new movies have nothing to do with the curse or any of the other movies after Halloween 1987
I like the theory that there still related in the new timeline, but I think it’s better to leave them as non-sibling because it makes it more scary, because now Michael has no mortal and has no reason to go after Laurie and that’s what makes it realistic because it could actually happen to someone.
Lmao he was still trying to kill her!
No not related. John carpenter himself said he absolutely hated the idea of he and Laurie being siblings. He said it was too non sensical. They actually reiterate this later in I think Halloween kills when it's revealed thar micheal was never hunting Laurie she just kept interfering
Not really. Michael is kind of just brought to her in H18. She goes into full lockdown to try and avoid him. However it is clear once he meets Laurie again that he does in some manner want revenge for the injuries she inflicted onto him. If Michael had just been set free he'd have likely rampaged until some other force stopped him again.@@kaitlynlindsay6265
@@robogreek3157interfering with what🤨
@@robogreek3157what??
I still think everything he was taught starts at Smithsgrove from driving to being very aware of his surroundings, because he actually did know who Laurie was because the hospital had the family files hidden away, and when he got old enough they let Mike go so he can terrorize his town, but the thorn possession sounds very credible also to his not being able to die because of it
The cult thing /demon thing bothered me I liked it better that he was just this unstoppable murderer who just killed to kill. But when you make so many movies you gotta add more stuff so I get it.
It will be fun to cover the other iterations of Michael so I can talk about the key differences.
@@CZsWorld ooooooooooooooooooooooo
They got the cult idea from the Halloween novelzation plus carpenter never intended for Michael to be immortal just to be a man with some supernatural powers controlled by an evil spirit and carpenter truely intended for Myers and loomis to die in h2 but h3 doing terrible and carpenter selling the rights Akkad made him immortal h4 and on

@@CZsWorld please can you do Laurie Strode history?
@@CZsWorldcan you rob zombie halloween episode
I feel like in the first movie he doesn't get them immediately because in the killing of his older sister he watches them from the shadows first (particularly when they are doing something intimate) then kills them. Which makes sense in character because he is trying to mimic it.
Bro, your videos have literally been getting me through my week. Thank you for doing such a great job. The care you put into each of these videos is absolutely commendable.
I don't like the "kills because he's a cult assassin" or "kills because of an abusive upbringing" timelines that much. The thing that makes him so scary is that he kills for no reason.
YES!
There has to be a reason and I feel like they'll explain it all in Halloween Ends. It's somethin about that tower that everybody keeps starin' at from out of Michael's sister's room window( Michael, that cop in the 70s scene, Laurie's daughter). My theory is that it's givin off some kinda mind warping signals and may also have somethin' to do with the Thorne curse on Michael. His random killing has to be explained! What's the source?!
I like the conspiracy theory twists and turns. It makes it a little more interesting. Hated the Rob Zombie movies though, too realistic.
I agree. What makes these types of horror movie villains the scariest is that they don't really have a motive or reason to kill. They do it just because they can.
I love the cult lure because it explains the invincibility
All aboard the Halloween Express! 🚂🎃🎃

Choo choo
if you look on your left you can see pennywise getting beat up
Man these guys should have their own series on a streaming service… I would pay 💰 for the subscription.. the amount of research and efforts and marketing is just mind blowing
been addicted to this film series ever since i started liking michael instead of being terrified of him!
very cool take on the films and the insights we get during the movies. Ive always done this in my head and with friends but have never seen such a well put together video on michael! thank you for making this video! subbed
I love how this is like an actual documentary which nails everything about Micheal Myers. Good work!
“Suddenly, having blonde hair for some reason.” This made me laugh harder than it should have. What a bizarre continuity error. Thank you for the laugh!
Sounds like your saying crayon like “cran”
I have to applaud everyone involved with making this video. You all did a great job analyzing this confusing franchise.
Never once in my life have I heard anyone call a "Crayon!!!!" A cran
Quite a random thought but if Michael was cursed by Thorn to murder his entire family, why didn't he attack his parents when they found him standing outside of the house?
Maybe that was the start of catatonia, the realization of him being caught shocked him so much that he couldn't react.
@@ChrisTheGamer123YT could be
I think it's the mask being taken off forces him into a catatonic state because the mask is like the demon's face while he himself is seperate which is why he's shocked in part 1 when it gets taken off the actual micheal was taking over but the demon pushed him back down when he put the mask back on
Yeah I was asking myself that all the time but I guess idk I suppose he was in shock
They ripped off the mask; he needs it.
They laughed and mocked loomis ,but Loomis knew what was up lol
I am such a fan of this franchise and love how you explain it! The Halloween express is perfect and simplifies the timelines. It shows how every timeline, he is still our favorite slasher Michael Myers. Whether he just snapped one day as a kid, if Laurie is actually his sister, if he was cursed… He is still exactly what Loomis said he was in the original. You’re awesome!
I think the reason why he didn't kill his sister straight away is because he still has a small side of him that's still human. That's why he wants to go back to his childhood home and just watches his sister instead of killing her, like he has a internal conflict between Michael as a child and the rage from the curse. If he wasn't human at all he wouldn't want to go back to his home because he wouldn't have any memories or attachment to it
The thorn is actually lifted from runic writing, which was pointy rather than rounded. Runes were made of straight lines and not curves because they were chiseled into stone and carved into wood, which makes curves more complicated and difficult. The thorn was carried over by Latin and French speaking scribes to denote a sound that doesn’t exist in either source language (th). This is also why there weren’t many written records-they mostly used stone and wood rather than paper-and why English doesn’t seem so phonetic. The sounds are represented by a foreign script, not the native runic one.
Small note from a word nerd!! Love your videos.
Yep. In the Norse culture, it was the rune used to represent Thor.
This. Thank you. You wxplained it bwtter than I would.
I honestly wished they used Ogham. Even if it's Pictish and not Irish. Would've made more sense. Could still be handwaved as cross pollination between Germanic and Celt cultures in antiquity as we know so little about both groups other than biased Greco-Roman propaganda.
I remember you mentioning in another video talking his 40 year timeline, that he was an outcast and how that’s part of what started the curse of him! I’m still convinced that that’s still part of the reason he is so hateful and psychotic in the whole series.
Who tf says crayon like crarn
I think the cult offered Michael's soul and body to Thorn. Thorn first took the soul, the possessed the body. I think Michael is legitimately dead, and the reason the curse doesn't disconnect when it's not Halloween is that part of Thorn stays in the body until he's done, then the body drops dead.
Odds are likely the body stays in a catatonic state because Thorn only gives it one purpose. It can't speak, feel emotion, or think. Thorn isn't human, it can't understand humanity. The only reason it wants the sacrifices is likely that Halloween, the day when the barriers are loose is the only time he can get a hold of them, is because he is a spirit of harvest, and harvest means killing. Whether it's plants, people, or animals. He likely also probably gains power to influence the world without a host. Which the way he uses autonomy is beneficial to life. Perhaps as an ethereal thing Thorn simply wants to exist, given it has no life of its own this is the only way it can remain. It has to kill to have power, it has to have power to effect change. This Thorn is more idea than being.
Otherwise couple notes, perhaps Thorn is trying to understand the human body. Hence why acts of affection confuse him. Next is the truck at the end of Halloween 3 had a clutch pedal and auto shift lever.

Thank You for putting all of this together🎃 Halloween 6 is something of a dark horse in this series, but one of my favorites. So, it’s a cool watch seeing someone connect it to explain Myers’ bizarre power
This is the best Halloween break down videos I've seen. I love that you included the Druids. Well done
I believe Michael killed Nurse Alves before he killed Bud and Karen, because we see some blood dripping on a black floor during Laurie's dream sequence (that looks identical to the floor of the room that Alves was killed in) right before Michael kills them
Good call!

I had actually liked the idea of the curse of Thorn, but what started off as interesting became too much of the focus towards then and really just seemed to dilute the character of Myres. The Jamie character was a pretty good route with her connecting to Michael wish they did more with that connection, and played more with how the bloodline can inherit the curse
I feel it would have been more interesting to have him be freed from/break the curse but still go on killing. Showing that despite being freed from it he was no longer human.
Jeez dude you watched ALL of these movies and got so much detail! You are the man!
The Thorn character is a rune that looks exactly like the character used in the movies. Straight lines and sharp corners were easier to carve into wood or stones than curvy lines, or at least more consistent.

I don't know if maybe it's because I love the Halloween movies, but this seriously seems like the best video you've put out in a while. It was so informative and funny, and I was genuinely disappointed when it was over. Seriously amazing, and I can't wait to see what's next!!
Its good only problem I have is yes in the orginal timeline michael is immortal bout in the first 2 movies carpenters intent was for him to be a man with some supernatural other wise michael was just a vessel for evil at the end of Halloween 2 they where supposed to die after h3 and carpenter and hill sold the rights to Akkad Akkad made him immortal so michael can’t die on screen

Such great coverage of the whole timeline!!
Just wanted to say whoever edits these videos did a wonderful job
This was really interesting . I have learnt more about Druids and their Rituals from You than I ever knew .
If there is a three year age gap between Michael and Laurie, there's a chance Michael remembered he had another sister or at least another sibling even if Laurie couldn't since he was six years old when he killed Judith. Long term memories start developing in the brain after the age of five years old, That's why its rare for humans to remember before they were five no matter how old they are.
you can also make the observation of how when it was mentioned Michael stole some rope from the hardware store, it was used to hang bob’s swinging dead body later BUT however in Halloween Kills when Michael attacked the police officer in the 1978 flashback - he was choking him with a rope. cool thing i noticed.
hi
Really really good planning

Absolutely loved this! Halloween is my all time favorite horror movie and it was great having everything explained, especially since the Thorn concept did always confuse me a bit. I loved the length of it and explaining everything in detail, as opposed to a 10 minute recap of what everyone already knows about Michael Myers.
I’m sorry but who pronounces crayon like cran 💀
You just earned yourself a subscriber. You, James A Jenisse from Dead Meat and and 616 Entertainment have a very unique way of analyzing our favorite horror movies. Much appreciated
I don't know if it's just me, but the clips of Loomis coming in with the incorrect Samhain pronunciation is hilarious each time.
I don’t get why people don’t like the original timeline with The Cult of Thorn. It makes total sense of why Michael Myers kills, he doesn’t do it for no reason, he does it because he’s been possessed! I’m sorry but I like it when things are explained and showing the true story of why people turn into murderers.
@@singer4life-nx9um Thank you
One thing I've always hoped for was that they reveal Jamie Lloyd's father, you know, a backstory of sorts. For years I've been speculating that it's Jimmy, the EMT in Halloween 2 that appears to have a crush on Laurie. Not to mention the father of Jamie's baby. Over the past few years I've heard some real nasty, morbid theories about that. But I don't wanna post what I heard on TH-cam. Thanks so much CZsWorld for this incredibly detailed timeline about Michael Myers. I commend you as well for going almost an hour on this. Kudos to you for soldiering through it. Bravo! 👏
It always disappointed me how this series wasted Jamie. She could’ve had a great arc where she grows up to ultimately face her evil uncle whose actions ruined her life before she was even born. It’s just to bad they dropped the ball so badly in H5 and H6.
Focus on God instead of the things in this world. Check it out: The Roman Empire fulfilled the Role of The beast from the sea in Revelation 13 (Revelation 17 confirms that it is Rome). With that in mind we can conclude that A) The world leaders and governments have been conspiring together for the last 2500 years to fulfill the roadmap that is in the Bible B) Jesus is the Son of God and can tell the future or make it happen. The fact that Biblical prophecy is still unfolding (such as the rebirth of Israel in 1948 or the coming digital currency) should raise some flags. Repent of your sins now and pray for God to intervene in your life. The world as we know it is headed towards destruction. If you have any questions about scripture feel free to ask me
Belief in Jesus alone does not give you eternal life, you have to obey Him and become born again John 3:3, John 3:36
Dr. Loomis needs to stop correcting you since he’s the one pronouncing words wrong. This video might be my new favorite. That’ll likely change when your next one drops. I also liked the video you did with Halloween expert Jimmy Champane. It’s always awesome when Horror TH-camrs collaborate.

I think Cochran from Halloween III was the only character who pronounced it right.
That's the joke
I laughed every time Loomis corrected CZ😭😭

The fact that their are 4 universes in these series is pretty impressive halloween already had a multiverse before it was cool..haha
Spot on analysis. You've done your homework. Well done!
This is my favorite movie series of ALL TIME. Never thought I’d find anything about this series that I liked from a commentary standpoint but I found this. Great video!!!!
There are more, and more to come!
Michael killing those kids in the comics could be the Thorn Demon ("The Shape?") acting up and wanting human sacrifices as it's buying time (maybe waiting until Laurie was closer to Judith's age), or it could just be that Michael is a demented psychopath himself, and the Demonic curse was just a match made in heaven, and they both fed off of each other. Maybe the Thorn Demon is in all three timelines, but it just likes to let Michael do his thing, from time-to-time while aiding him with some invulnerability on occasion.

I think the latter could be accurate. Like his murders he committed while possessed left him numb to the idea of taking a human life so he would do it when pissed off on top of the possessed kills.
He has to be a demon in all 3 as he is supernatural in every single film.
@@mcl7353 yes he is
Damnit!!!! Original Halloween is one of my favorite movies. But, now I have to watch all of them again in one night because you made me think more about them. 🥺😱🤯👍
I do think the mask plays an important part bc the mask give his a sense of power. The mask hides his face giving him the confidence that he needs, without it he may become less successful due to his insecurities and vulnerabilities from being picked on as a child and burnt face. I think he becomes stronger with each person he kills which builds up his immortality which requires him to need less down time when he get injured. So..eventually Michael realizes the strength gained by each kill and MAYBE the amount of strength he receives is determined by the age his victim and that's why be didn't kill the old folks. His victims do tend to be on the younger side, I'd say child to age 35 and seems to only kill older people when be finds it necessary to remove them from the equation to simplify his ultimate goal.
Dude, you used an actual express 6 train as the Halloween Express. That makes my little New York heart so happy.
This is your masterpiece, man.

Fantastic video, I love you attention to detail.
I just came across this video on my suggested videos.. so glad I came across this video. Thanks for the knowledge
Me and my husband would talk hours about this stuff. I know he would have loved this channel. I miss him so much. Thank you for doing this. From a person who is grieving: this has helped me so much.
Im so sorry for your loss may god bless you with the strength and may god be with you💯
@@johnedward6123 thank you for your kind words
My condolences. I'm sure he was a great man. I'm sorry for your loss
I'm sorry I hope you're feeling OK today
The Thorn symbol used looks very much like a Nordic rune, which actually makes sense when you see the similarities between Celtic and Nordic mythologies
This was so amazing I need the next part
IN MICHAEL'S DEFENSE....
When Lori shoots him somewhere though the eye holes of his mask, his motions are actually pretty accurate. Now to a person who's never been in a fight, it may look silly.. But when your eyes have blood running in them, you cannot see.. And after taking a big blow to the head, a loud ringing noise fills your ears and that's all you can hear. Now im only referring to a good puch from another man, compared to Michael being shot twice in the head lol, i think he recovered pretty quick. You can verify everything i just said by asking any person who's ever competed in combat sports. They'll know exactly what im talking about.
Never participated in a fight but I know what you’re talking about.
Dude, you do an amazing job not only the Halloween series, but all of the others I have watched. Just wanted to thank you for your dedication and hard work. 👊🏼
I love how you use B.C.E. and A.C.E. You really make the connections so interesting.
Great video! very entertaining and answered some of my questions. Your theories also make up for what I though was bad directing or acting lol
I was confused at the middle name Audrey because I remember his middle initial being M in Halloween 4 on his patient form. I looked it up to be sure I was remembering correctly. Seems that a crew member mistakenly put M as the initial
The M stands for misinformation
🤔 i was told it was for Milhouse

"Cran" is by far a more "yee haw, fuck literature" saying than Cray-on.
Nah, it's obviously spelled Craaaan.
So, The Name Michael Myers Alone Poses No Threat, But The Name Michael Audrey Myers is the one we should fear.
Great and entertaining explanation of Michael Myers history.
This was such a great wrap up of the original series, loving this material! Thank you and the team for all the time and energy ya'll put into each video!
You are right I'm agreeing with you all the way from Baton Rouge Louisiana 2021 please be safe and careful 🔥🔥🔥😔
CZ always does an amazing job with his videos!
I'd like to see you do a timeline for Jason eventually. I'm always curious about him too.
Same!
You didn’t mention the Halloween novel by Richard Curtis. All those comics are just really derivative of the novel. It’s the novel that first mentions the origins going back to the Celtics. Which doesn’t have Michael as being a descendant of a Druid but as being possessed of a cursed dead one. I find the origins in the novel to be a fascinating one.
It’s in the novel that we read of the time of Michael’s time at Smith’s Grove and all the stories of the mysterious deaths. I wish they introduced that origin story into the franchise.
The Cult of Thor never really got to control Michael like they thought that's why Michael showed them at the end and took them out
Hilariously the rune they call Thorn is an actual Norse rune, also called Thorr/Thorrn, which in old English is of course Thorn, and that rune *does* act as a symbol for a being...but that being is Thorr/Thor - a *protector* of men, who had an epithet that translates to 'friend of Midgard'
they probably just picked a random symbol but the situation is funny to me
And Wynn was also a rune, the rune of Odin.

I'm just imagining Michael picking Thor's hammer Mjolnir and killing people with it.
@@Xehanort10 Honestly, I'd watch that
"friend of Midgard" is also, or rumoured, friend of the land. Man is not a friend of the land, we are a virus of the land. We use the land to make ourselves better, it CAN be said that the thorn protects the land from man.
The original Halloween is basically the Ocarina of Time of the 80s horror genre at this point with all the timeline splits
Yes, but Ocarina of Time has an in-game reason that the timeline splits whereas Halloween is a series of what-if scenarios.
@@CZsWorld it'd be pretty neat if there was an in-canon reason, I'd watch that movie lol

‘How bout that” made my whole day. ❤
Rockin that tie bro!!
They should have transported Michael in a car with a manual stick shift instead of an automatic transmission. Michael would have bunny hopped and stalled, and then have to walk to Hadonfield.
I wonder who showed him to drive in the first place.
Because he steals stick shifts too because they'd have more common then automatic at the time.
my question is how did he learn to drive in the first place? lmao imagine michael in a drivers ed class😭
Fun fact: You can play as Michael Myers in Call Of Duty Ghosts in the Fog map. It's in the onslaught dlc
Amazing Chanel I'm glad I stumbled upon this me and my sister has been huge fans of horror movies since childhood
New follower, love your videos, whether I've seen the film you're talking about or not! Great job
Just found your videos and I can't stop watching! Very indepth information along with funny writing but goddamn the editing!! Chef's kiss!! You're killing it! Don't ever stop 💜🙌🙏

I always preferred my theory as to why Michael was stalking Laurie before pursuing her with such determination. My theory was they're not related at all, and when he first caught sight of her he fell for her, and his stalking in the day was a visual representation of a massive battle taking place inside of Michael where his heart is fighting against his natural instinct to kill and in the end, his body come to the conclusion that the girl he fell for will be his ultimate victim that he has to take before he can stop killing
Halloween Ends - Back Home th-cam.com/video/uptXdfr0SVY/w-d-xo.html # Isolation ...................
That’s an interesting theory. Perhaps, it’s some kind of violent reaction to sexuality, a la Norman Bates. That would explain why many of his victims are killed after intercourse. And there’s a precedent for that, Carpenter himself even said that the reason Laurie was able to fight him off, was because she was a virgin and all that pent up energy that could’ve been spent on less wholesome activities, was instead used to defend herself. I think the stalking may also be related to a psychological need to kill them at night. Even if it’s not due to the Thorn, it’s possible he’s also developed a need to do things in a pattern. His first kill was at night after all.
You have the same name as me
This is so well done. You speak hella fast but, you're very easy to understand. I feel like I'm getting thorough knowledge of Michael Myers and Halloween! Thank you
Great work . I love Halloween and Michael Myers.. definitely subbing to your channel and will be watching more vids when I get the time!
My head canon for why he always walks or misses Laurie with his attacks is that Michael is actually fighting the Thorn Curse.
