The Many Faces of Michael Myers

     Maybe it's me, but I just don't find Michael Myers in any of the latter HALLOWEEN sequels to be frightening, and it's definitely the mask that ruins it all. Why? Because they obviously don't use the same one, kittens.Does nobody else notice this? It was the mask that made the original so creepy in the first place. Just finding some cheap, white mask that somewhat resembles the original just doesn't cut it for me. I don't care what anybody says- it's just not the same.  The original, Shatner mask is so much more frightening.  So I've rounded up shots from each HALLOWEEN film to compare. What do you think?


     The mask that launched a million nightmares... John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN. Simple. Iconic, Terrifying.
                   

 Michael still looked like Michael in HALLOWEEN 2, and was still pretty damn scary.  

                                               
     Okay, in HALLOWEEN 4: THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS, this is where they lost me. What is this? This looks like a $5 knockoff you get at Wal-Mart. And it kinda resembles the lead singer from Sugar Ray. No.
         

     So I really hate this next one.  It looks like Tim Allen for crying out loud.  And HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS is just a terrible movie period.

Okay, in HALLOWEEN 6: THE CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS, it's closer to the original Shatner mask, but still not quite right.  But even if they had used the original mask, this movie would still suck donkey balls.

Again, close to the original, but not quite...HALLOWEEN: H20...

HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION... lol enough said...

           I'm not even commenting on these...  Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN.
                 

Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN 2.

So there you have it.  I can honestly only take the first two seriously. After that, the films are far too corny to take seriously, and the mask only makes them all the more humorous. Just me though.
