Halloween with michael myers games
To date he has left approximately unfinished screenplays in his wake, the majority of which have thankfully been deleted entirely from our plane of existence. He currently resides wherever his head happens to lie. His hobbies include eating Doritos, playing Atari games, avoiding eye contact and drinking excessive amounts of coffee.
His all-time favorite movie critics are Pauline Kael, Manny Farber and of course himself. According to him, the way Michael follows girls around and watches them contains a subtext of repressed sexuality. Farrands theorizes that, as a child, Michael became fixated on the murder of his sister Judith, and for his own twisted reasons felt the need to repeat that action over and over again, finding a sister-like figure in Laurie who excited him sexually.
He also believes that by making Laurie Michael's literal sister, the sequels took away from the simplicity and relatability of the original Halloween.
Nevertheless, when writing Curse , Farrands was tasked with creating a mythology for Michael which defined his motives and why he could not be killed. He says, 'He can't just be a man anymore, he's gone beyond that. He's mythical. He's supernatural. So, I took it from that standpoint that there's something else driving him. A force that goes beyond that five senses that has infected this boy's soul and now is driving him.
Michael does not speak in the films; the first time audiences ever hear his voice is in the Rob Zombie reboot. Michael speaks as a child during the beginning of the film, but while in Smith's Grove he stops talking completely.
Rob Zombie originally planned to have the adult Michael speak to Laurie in the film's finale, simply saying his childhood nickname for her, 'Boo'. Zombie explained that this version was not used because he was afraid having the character talk at that point would demystify him too much, and because the act of Michael handing Laurie the photograph of them together was enough.
Describing aspects of Michael Myers which he wanted to explore in the comic book Halloween: Nightdance , writer Stefan Hutchinson mentions the character's 'bizarre and dark sense of humor', as seen when he wore a sheet over his head to trick a girl into thinking he was her boyfriend, and the satisfaction he gets from scaring the characters before he murders them, such as letting Laurie know he is stalking her. Hutchinson feels there is a perverse nature to Michael's actions: 'see the difference between how he watches and pursues women to men'.
Hutchinson describes Michael as a 'monster of abjection'. When asked his opinion of Rob Zombie's expansion on Michael's family life, Hutchinson says that explaining why Michael does what he does '[reduces] the character'.
That being said, Hutchinson explores the nature of evil in the short story Charlie —included in the Halloween Nightdance trade paperback—and says that Michael Myers spent fifteen years 'attuning himself to this force to the point where he is, as Loomis says, 'pure evil'. He surmises that Michael embodies a part of everyone; a part people are afraid will one day 'snap and knife someone', which lends to the fear that Michael creates on screen.
For Michael, he had to kill to find some inner peace. As he took his sister's life, the police found a silent boy dressed as a clown at the scene. Sending Michael to a mental institution was a feeble attempt to save the child. Unsuccessful therapy and nightly screams just made him even more introvert [ sic ] and deranged.
It was published in the Journal of Media Psychology. In the survey, Michael was considered to be the 'embodiment of pure evil'; when compared to the other characters, Michael Myers was rated the highest. Michael was characterized lending to the understanding of insanity, being ranked second to Hannibal Lecter in this category; he also placed first as the character who shows audiences the 'dark side of human nature'.
He was rated second in the category 'monster enjoys killing' by the participants, and believed to have 'superhuman strength'. Michael was rated highest among the characters in the 'monster is an outcast' category.
John Carpenter, serving as an executive producer and creative consultant for the sequel to Halloween , expressed his disagreement with Rob Zombie's portrayal of the lead slasher, 'I thought that he took away the mystique of the story by explaining too much about [Michael Myers]. I don't care about that. He's supposed to be a force of nature. He's supposed to be almost supernatural.
I want to be scared by something that I really think could happen. I think it's much more horrifying to be scared by someone standing in the shadows while you're taking the trash out as opposed to someone who can't be killed pursuing you.
Myers is evicted from the house, and takes off his mask to reveal himself to be the comedian Mike Myers, and utters his Austin Powers catchphrase, 'I feel randy, baby, yeah!
