the one scene from the original 1978 halloween movie that even today this day still makes me jump and scares me. is that car scene in the garage where annie goes to it. tries to open the door. realises its locked. so she goes back to get her car keys.. then when she gets back to the car.. she forgets to put the keys into the car door and instead just opens it up.. gets in.. then notices all of her car windows covered in condensation and then bam.. out of nowhere michael appears in the back grabs and holds her then cuts her neck. that scene even now still makes me jump. even though i have watched the movie at least probably 10 - 15 times and youd think id know when to expect it but no matter how many times i watch it and see that scene.. i always jump... oh and then there is the scene where he appears from behind the couch and laurie stabs something in his neck.. those two scenes without fail make me jump every time.

He totally gets the reaction fans of Halloween have towards him but doesn't act like he cured cancer or anything. Very genuine guy.

I like how they included Nick who was the original SHAPE from the original 1978 John Carpenter’s Halloween to return as THE SHAPE again in the new trilogy reprising the roll again. That’s cause John, Tommy and Nick are still good friends even though their careers over the years went separate ways. They were once THE COUPE DE VILLES a musical group too. That’s EPIC!!
@TheTruth-pl3mk2 жыл бұрын
Yes it's cool that he's back and involved, but 75% of the scenes for Michael Myers are played by the stuntman James Jude-Courtney. To be fair, he does a rather good impersonation of Nick Castle's 1978 "The Shape".

Come to think of it, the whole head-tilt thing is kinda the only peek we ever get into what's going on inside of this person's mind. More so than we ever get from the mask itself coming off (of either adult or kid Michael). The only time we get to see him expending the slightest bit of energy for something other than terrorizing and killing the next victim. The only time he ever just stops and takes a moment for himself. In a very strange way, it's the most humanizing thing he ever does.
@ceeleewal12572 жыл бұрын
How true that is can be the most bothersome aspect of The Shape given the fact that for most of the film he's barren of emotion but for a split second it seems as if he's either annoyed at the current situation or he'd retreated inside his mind in search of a new form of my punishment to exact.

i have to disagree, he is looking at Bob like my dog looks at something he has never seen before. He is looking at him like ohhhh that's interesting look what i did, i get what you're saying but imo there is nothing human about that head tilt it's more of an animal instinct.

I'm a 56 year old woman and on Halloween night, I return to my childhood and am scared to death of the holiday because of a guy named Nick Castle. If you showed up on my door step dressed as Michael, I'd probably, seriously die of fright! I'm not even half joking!
