Michael MyersHe sports a white kabuki mask, a blue almost janitor like jumpsuit, and wields a kitchen knife. The first glimpse of Michael Myers that we get in the Halloween series is of him as a child stabbing his older sister to death on a Halloween night. Michael’s parents then send him to a children’s psychiatric hospital because after he killed his sister, he was in trance like state of some sort. Michael is moved to an adult psychiatric ward once he turns 21, but while he is being moved, Myers steals a car and escapes.
Through out the series of movies, Myers is tracked down by Dr. Sam Loomis who was his child psychiatrist at the child’s ward he was at. Loomis eventually came to the conclusion that Myers was nothing than pure evil. Loomis is the one who tracks down Myers at the end of the 1st movie and ends up shooting him six times right as he was about to finish off the heroine of the movie.
Michael Myers is one of those types of characters that I believe is interesting. His age progresses as the movie series goes on, but in the first movie he is 21. He has been in a psychiatric hospital for the past fifteen years because of what led him to kill his older sister when he was six. He picks random victims and isolates them from everyone as he did in the first film by killing off all of the heroine’s friends and cutting their phone lines.
He also never seems to die. I know it is a movie but I think that if a man got stabbed in the chest with a kitchen knife, stabbed in the eye with a wire hanger, got shot six times, and fell off a balcony on the second story of a house that he would be dead. I guess that the feeling that he can never be killed just adds to his horror factor because a)If you assumed he was dead and he wasn’t, you would put your guard down and then be a goner and b)He always seems to disappear, so you will never know where he will strike next.
All in all, Michael Myers has added to the fun that this country has on Halloween by giving us a series of movies to enjoy as well as a character to sleep in fear off as we think back on the films we have just watched.
