  I think-one of the best descriptions of the fear of Michael I&apos;ve seen accurately sums up why the finale of that movie is so terrifying. You know that feeling when you find a spider in your house, and you look away for five seconds and it&apos;s GONE?? And you can&apos;t find it again?? That&apos;s the kind of paranoia this brings out in me. THAT is the horror of Michael Myers, to me.

  What creeps me out about Michael Myers is how dispassionate he is about killing. He doesnt seem to enjoy it, or be fearful of consequences or filled with rage. He doesnt seem to care that he is killing people, and yet it is all he does.

  The ending to the first movie with all the shots we were used to seeing him but he isn’t there with the breathing is such a great way of making myers linger in your head and panic. Truly worthy of the name “the shape”

  Michael Myers has that living uncanny valley to him, which makes him so creepy

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CD6tzO7OWI&amp;t=2428">40:28</a> Allyson has better luck when she&apos;s screaming for help in 2018 because some people let her in and gave her some water. But the neighbours Laurie asked for help in 1978 thought she was Halloween pranking them.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CD6tzO7OWI&amp;t=616">10:16</a> I definitely agree that the mundanity is really creepy but his real slasher name &quot;The Shape&quot; is so terrifyingly ominous I love it

  The main thing I think 2018 does better than the og is the fact that it actually FEELS like Halloween with the neighborhood trick or treating and celebrating with costume parties.

  Myers was the ultimate &quot;Land Shark.&quot; &nbsp;A black-eyed predator that was triggered by things only he could perceive. &nbsp;Mixing metaphors only slightly, that would make Loomis Captain Ahab. &nbsp;Loomis&apos; speech is right up there with Quint&apos;s in Jaws; and for the same reason.

  Michael &nbsp;will always be the best and my favorite of the horror icons.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CD6tzO7OWI&amp;t=1756">29:16</a> They try to convince Laurie they want her to go and see Michael to confront her fear and move on with her life but it&apos;s clear they think she&apos;s the one who&apos;ll finally get him to talk hoping they&apos;ll be able to understand why he kills.
