Which Michael Myers Has The Best Motive For Killing? 

Michael just being a pure evil monster that the main timeline of 1978-2018-2021-2022 goes with does make him much scarier than the others indeed.

Congrats on the 500k! Well deserved, keep up the great reviews and news my man

The novelization of the 78 film had alot of the supernatural aspect with Michael hearing voices. Kid Michael was getting into fights, pissing on himself, hurting animals and threatened to kill Judith because she didn't give him any candy and drowned a girl for taking something from him . Plus his great grandfather was a killer who killed a couple on halloween night

One of the aspects of the Cult of Thorn origin that I do like is that it gives context to the scenes where both Laurie and Jamie have been able to get him to pause his rampage. Two times he's been show crying behind the mask and sporadic reluctance to kill either of them...It implies that he doesn't want to be doing this but that the curse is forcing him to against his will. I think it makes it somewhat tragic. But I do prefer the Pure Evil explanation!

I just love the idea of Michael killing without reason like in H1. I don’t necessarily mind the Laurie and Michael sibling thing but I just prefer the H1 setup where Michael was the predator while Laurie was pretty much the prey.

Me personally, since I started out with Halloween II, then later with H2O and went back to watch the original, I’d say the family ties are for me. There’s just something about having a serial killer in the family that makes it terrifying to live with because you’re their blood and it’s inescapable. I also do love the mystery behind it all and sometimes having no motive is scarier. But for me, I’m going to stick with the family connection.

I prefer the family motive, simply because it gives Laurie’s character more importance. The only issue with that being the motive is that it makes the series harder to continue without Laurie. In the reboot “Laurie” was immediately more integral to the story. And once 2018 came out the big draw was Jamie returning as Laurie. I’m not sure how the franchise can move away from this formula and be successful. The scary thing is that they retconned the sibling story line and still had success. Because of that they may believe that it no longer matters, but I’m not so sure that’s the case. If Jamie Lee Curtis isn’t in these films, how would the box office look? Only time will tell. Can’t wait for Ends.

Side note: CONGRATULATIONS ON 500K! I randomly found your channel about 4 years ago when looking up Child’s play trailers. Have loved watching this channel grow!

Is the Jack-O-Lantern supposed to be Sam from Trick or Treat? If so, than that looks great!

I enjoy Michael when it's clear there's something inside, but you don't know what. You mentioned him leaving the baby in Halloween 2018, and I personally think in the 1978 one he needs a mask as the persona he wears to kill, but why exactly is never made clear. That's when he works best, because he has no motive but there's hints of three-dimensions to his character.

i think it’d be cool to see a new Halloween Kills (2021) Review - since it’s been a year since release…it’d be interesting to see what you think about it after some time has passed…

Maybe I'm weird but I really enjoyed the realistic take Zombie introduced. Ya know, Chucky and Freddie are spirits, Jason is basically a zombie, so taking out the fantasy element with Michael was a fresh take for me that I enjoyed. Plus as a kid, the idea of Michael being a real person was way more scary than any cult or unnatural phenomenon

I always assumed that in the 2018 movie, Michael not killing the baby but then going on to kill the mother was a more twisted way to kill the baby in the long term: let it starve to death, with no mother to take care of it anymore. That’s my head cannon at least.

Happy 500k it been a real joy watching you every since 2020 I have been waiting for a new sideflick every day😅. I still remember the Wanda vision theories 👹😂😂

Halloween Ends is going to be very emotional. Also congrats on 500K Cris.

I prefer the first, second, & H2O 🎃. I like the sibling idea. That would be terrifying knowing you have a sibling out there that just wants to kill you. I definitely agree with that.

Congratulations on Chris on getting 500k subs ! Been subscribed to your channel for about 3-4 years now just crazy on how time flys. Plus I think your pumpkin carving is supposed to be Sam from Trick r Treat not too bad man. 🎃

CONGRATULATIONS Chris on 500k! Love the video, also I was wondering if you could do a video ranking your top 10 horror movie? It would be awesome!

Congrats on 500k! I’ve been here since 2,000 and it’s been a journey!

Honestly, I watch the Halloweens just to fill the hole the Friday films left. I need to see Jason on the Big screen again.

Congrats on 500k!!! Half way to a million! Thank you so much for the hard work you put in your videos and how you always try to look for the good in movies not just the bad, I have been watching you since the old days of Childs play 2019 and you 101% deserve it! I know you will make it to 1 million

Best motive gotta be Curse of Michael Myers. Tommy even states in the opening "if there's one thing you can't control, it's evil"

I love the idea of him just being a pure evil monster with no pattern to why he kills. It makes him scarier and more unpredictable.

It’s important to remember though regarding your statement on the baby in 2018, that in the original 1978 film Richie runs right into Michaels grasp but he let’s him free. It’s like him being able to speak. He chooses not to. For whatever reason he spares people. Another example would be young Lonnie in Kills.

Halloween is as close to ending as fast and the furious when they say this the last ride im not falling 4 that😭😭

I do have a cult of Thorn tattoo.. was my second tattoo i got around age 19

I love the mysterious Micheal of the 2018 timeline. We don't know why he does anything that he does and that makes him even more scary.

To be fair, I don’t think bullied is the motive for Michael in RZ Halloween. He’s still psychotic and messed up, the bad home life is just the Cherry on top. It hints that maybe Michael’s mind is gone because he says “is everybody at home ok?” as if nothing ever happened. Just being bullied at home isn’t his motive for killing or returning for Laurie.

just noticed you hit 500k subs, ive been watching for almost 3 years and sm stuff has changed since, keep doing the great work👏congrats 3C🎉❤

The 2018 timeline is great, my favorite timeline is the Thorn timeline. Because Michael in that timeline is my favorite. He's probably the most brutal in that timeline and because Loomis is in that timeline.

Honestly halloween 1 and 2 wasn't a bad reason. I wouldn't have minded Jamie lee being his sister and he was trying to kill off his bloodline

Congrats Chris!! 500K subs you deserve them all. Now time for that Millie!!!

I love your channel and thank you for all the news! I have been a fan all these years and I hope you see this

Great video, I like when Michael Myers really has no motive

As A Thorne Cult Tattoo haver, I feel called out lol

I think they all have cool motives. 1st timeline wants to wipe out his family and has a connection to his house. Thorn timeline the curse made him do it. I would also say this version is one of the scariest because he's arguably the most powerful version. Blumhouse 2018 timeline he's just pure evil and does things because. All of the Carpenter based timelines are scary because at the end of the day he's evil regardless of the reason. Zombie universe Michael just had a sbitty upbringing, needed more love and also had a shitty step-dad and got bullied in school so he just snapped.

500K!?! I remember when you had 45k! This is insane!

I honestly think the new trilogy; only because every kill just seems extremely personal.

half a million already !!! i’ve been subscribed for like 4/5 years and im so happy to see you grow

I’m thoroughly convinced the new trilogy Michael is possessed by a demon. I lowkey would hope and wish there will be an autopsy and slight explanation to his behavior alongside cliffhanger cause EVERYONE knows Michael never truly dies.

Congrats on 500k Chris! You more than deserve it man! Awesome, awesome work here!

Great content! I’d say it’s an underrated channel but, 3C Films turning mainstream

I thought the reason for the Thorn curse was because in ancient times there was a plague that ravaged villages with death and famine. And that this curse sacrifices one family so that the rest of the village can live.

Most people don’t realize. The cult was WHY he killed in the first movie. It just wasn’t stated outright until the second movie. Samhain is hallows eve and the day that thorn (the demon of the cult of thorn) takes control of Michael to kill Michael’s family. The sacrifice is either, thorn takes control of someone and kills their family, making the tribe unable to die for a specific amount of time, or if you don’t get a sacrifice then thorn will kill the whole tribe. If you understand the cult of thorn plot line it really isn’t that bad. It’s just the made it awful from how they executed it in the movies. But overall, I do like how Michael kills for no reason in the newer movies. It is the scariest.

You carved the pumpkin into sam from trick or treat Saw that when you pull it out 😂

Is it Sam from trick-or-treat because if so you did a great job!!!!!!! Edit: You did it!!!!!!!! Congrats on 500k you deserve it!!!!!!!!!!!!

love the pumpkin! congrats on 500K subs btw, well deserved dude! 🙏

Congratulations on 500k Chris keep up the good work

The pumpkin carving is Sam from Trick’r’Treat.

I guess I’m the only one who likes the Rob Zombie motive. Okay, I’ll see my self out now.

Very informative video. Can't wait for the "Halloween Ends" 🎃🙌

Congrats on 500k lk I'm late but I also been watching you since the civil war videos and I still love your content keep it up dude.

Bro how does this guy not have 1,000,000 subscribers he is such a good RU-vidr also congrats on 500,000 hundred thousand 🥳

The no motive/pure evil is my favorite too. I'm so excited to watch Halloween Ends in IMAX this weekend!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS ON 500K CHRIS LOVE YOUU

Congratulations on 500k Cris. LETS PARTY😂🎂

All Of The Stories Are Great👍🏻. Can't Wait For Ends

Dude congrats on half a million subs!!!!!

Congrats on 500k bro

500k what? you were just at 60k when I subbed, Keep up the great work man!

I personally think the secret sister motive was pretty cool

congrats on 500k!!!🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉🎉🎉

5:26 In the 4-6 continuity Michael goes from evil incarnate to a puppet. I don't like that timeline's implication that he's an innocent man forced to do evil by Thorn either.

your jack is supposed to be Sam from Trick r' Treat, I heard the second Trick r' Treat has finally been green lit, can't wait!

Even the Thorn trilogy basically said that Michael was pure evil cause he ended up killing everyone in the cult, he can't be controlled

Knowing that he’s just pure evil is so intense

That jack o lantern looks like Sam from Trick ‘r Treat 🎃

Congrats on 500k Chris 🥳🎉👏

Family was favorite motive, loved Mikey and Laurie being siblings.

Still can’t believe that Halloween ends is the last film. Thanks for the videos

Congratulations on 500K subscribers absolutely well deserved and earned🎊🎊🎊

The family and the cult go hand in hand in motive in my opinion, which the third movie implied that that cult was responsible for the shape's purpose.

500k Let's Go!!! You completely deserve the success.

The Pumpkin you carved is supposed to be the kid from Trick or Treat!!!

I love Rob Zombie’s Halloween 1. Since I love serial killers it felt so real:)

HAPPY 500K CHRIS! I can’t think of anyone who deserves it more!☺☺

If one thing that micheal should have a motive *puts sun glasses on* is family “OoooOOO!!!!”

“It’s a lot scarier when there’s no motive, Sid” - Billy Loomis.

so hyped for ENDS and also 500k Congrats dude

If you’re a horror/slasher fan you know they never end

For me, the Rob Zombie movies were always the most brutal yet they had somewhat understandable motives for Mikey

The carving of the pumpkin is jack from the night before Christmas and W vid

I just watched trick r treat for the first time yesterday!! I recognize a Sam pumpkin 🎃

Congrats on 500k!!!

Chris. I feel like when Michael didn’t kill the baby in 2018..I honestly wondered wat if….wat if and this is gnna sound dark but make sense! Wat if Michael felt that baby will be some sorta bad person when it grows up and that is why he chose not to kill it? Makes sense and kinda makes it more scarier and definitely makes that moment darker lol…but they could easily say technically that baby was not in his way? Lol

Congrats on 500k subscribers!!!

Sam doesn’t look bad compared to what I would’ve done to the pumpkin if I were doing it

Congratulations man🎃 500k🎉🥳

Also CONGRATULATIONS ON 500K CHUCKY BOY

It looks like Cris's pumpkin is a mix of Jack Skellington and Sam from Trick R Treat.

3:05 Because bad childhood backstories for villains are mostly done badly. To do it right you have it explain their actions but not justify them. But most of the time bad writers say the bad childhood made them do it and justifies their actions when it doesn't.

Congrats on 500k subs dude!

The Pure Evil motive makes sense as the best if Laurie is no longer part of the movies cuz there is no bond between them to make them want to fight each other. For him she is just there and people have to bring him to her for him to actually want to kill her. The Family motive is the best and scariest cuz he is just after you like It Follows but he will kill anyone who gets in his way to get you. Laurie being scared and prepared makes sense and the bond completes to reason for them to face off. Michael in the new movies feels like a puppet being led by others to Laurie.

Hopefully we can probably get a review for Halloween III: Season Of The Witch since we didn't get one last yeaf

was just binge watching your halloween reviews

Evil obviously exist in smaller forms in the new timeline, but like Loomis said Michael is THE EVIL, imo the personification of pure evil, and the fact the Laurie got over on him, I think it hits the ego pretty hard, that’s how I see the new Michael

The best explanation Is no explanation

Ok my guess on the pumpkin is Sam from Trick r’ Treat! My favorite Halloween movie 🥰

It Sam the pumpkin kid from "trick or treat"

The Jack-O-Lantern looks like Sam from trick R treat. I figured it out by looking in the background of your set up
