A true force of nature (it measures 2 meters!), it never runs after its prey and is content to walk. Cold, silent, methodical, he likes to hide in the dark corners of rooms to better attack his prey. Despite multiple gunshots, a half-burnt body, a knitting needle stuck in his neck, defenses, etc… he remains indestructible. Except for being the reincarnation of absolute evil.
After reading the above, you will surely recognize the legendary boogeyman: Michael Myers. With Halloween Kills entering the top 10 movies watched on Netflix this week, he returns for the 12th time (!) since his first appearance in John Carpenter’s 1978 masterpiece.
In 2018, David Gordon Green’s Halloween was presented as a true direct sequel to John Carpenter’s directorial opus 40 years earlier, erasing all others from the timeline. Still backed by Jamie Lee Curtis, who reprises her role as Laurie Strode, the director has stepped it up even further. Halloween killsReleased in 2021.
The film also invokes other characters from the saga. Like Marion Chambers, the nurse who crossed paths with Myers when he ran away. Smith’s Grove Sanitarium. Lindsay Wallace and Tommy Doyle, the children in the 1978 film, and Dr. Samuel Loomis, another of the Boogeyman’s enemies, whose psychiatrist he was.
If this bloody opus has not, as it should, won all the votes of lovers of the indestructible bogey, he will look at it with displeasure. While I await the completion of the final installment of Myer Myers’ (un)adventures, Halloween, which came out with us last October.
