Halloween Timeline

I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another
Seven trying to keep him locked up for I realized what was
Living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply...evil

Oh, I did this already. :p

My newest list has H20 behind 4. I made the list I quoted after rewatching the franchise. But I tend to remember 4 in a better light than H20.
Maybe you dig H20 so much because it would blend in with CW shows like Supernatch.
I tend to not remember Supernatural so well, just as I do H20. :p

in the excitement of seeing Halloween (2018) I put it in 2nd place. After multiple viewings, I've moved down to 3rd after the first two.

That whole therapist sub-plot of Halloween (2018) just felt so off to me. Just couldn't dig it nearly as I wish I did. Still great movie, but nowhere near top tier.

yeah, that was predictable and lame. Especially when he kills the cop. Too far.

Still 2nd place for me, but the original part II is still on its ass.

Bumping.

Looking forward to reranking and where the two newest Halloween movies land. They are both so even that they'll fall in right next to each other on the list. But where?

About to fire up Producer's Cut of part 6.

So I'll just rank them to the best of my ability, from best to worst:

1) Halloween (1978)
2) Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)
3) Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
4) Halloween II (1981)
5) Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)
6) Halloween (2018)
7) Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998)
8) Halloween Kills (2021)
9) Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995)
10) Halloween: Resurrection (2002)
11) Halloween (2007)
12) Halloween II (2009)

There is definitely room for movement around 8-11. Also important to note is that while Halloween (2018) might be better than Halloween 5, nine times out of ten, if I was told to watch one of them, I'd go with Halloween 5.

After last week, my Halloween timeline is just like my zip drive for my Blu Ray player. Halloween 1978, Halloween 2018 and Halloween Kills. How amazing would it be if someone super cut the HK Halloween scenes directly after Halloween 1978, then 2018 and the present day HK stuff. One big seamless movie experience. 40 years of terror!

i was actually planning on writing a fan story of a redo on Halloween 6 which still has the thorn storyline in it BUT which gaves Jamie a longer role & which reveals that laurie actually Did fake her death in that timeline and which ties all the movies together in the same timeline (not sure if i explained that right)
but i was planning on typing it into a script and filming it with the sims 2.
