Nothing comes close to topping Halloween in my eyes. A genuine example that excess gore does not necessarily a great horror movie make.

Ditto to what The 'pac said. :cool: One of my all-time favorite films, this one.

Part 1 all the way!! John carpenter really showed us what he was made of with this film and, set the standard for many other horror films. The Shape is one bad MOFO. Pure Evil.

My favorite is the Producer's Cut of Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers.

1,2, and 4 are the only good entries in the series. Everything that came after part 4 is almost painful to watch, with part 7 being the only movie that at least manages to be average. Anyway, here's my breakdown of the series:

Halloween (10/10)
Halloween II (7/10)
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (8/10)
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (5/10)
Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (4/10)
Halloween: H20 (6/10)
Halloween: Resurrection (3/10)

John Carpenter's original Halloween will always be my favorite. The reasons are too numerous to mention, but here's a few: great cast, great story, all a build-up of suspense with minimal gore. Great soundtrack, fantastic editing, and not to mention masterful direction.

HALLOWEEN (10/10)
HALLOWEEN II (8/10)
HALLOWEEN H20 (7/10)
HALLOWEEN 4 (7/10)
HALLOWEEN 6PC (6/10)
HALLOWEEN 6 (5/10)
HALLOWEEN III (4/10)
HALLOWEEN 5 (3/10)
HALLOWEEN: RES (2/10)

To me, 2 is the greatest. Had a bit more action, blood, and balls than part one, while keeping the creepiness contained in the original

heavy!!!
06-15-2004, 10:27 PM
Halloween 3 Season of the witch!!!!!!!

Seriously now the original Halloween you cant mess with that its the shit!!! Close is part 4 !!!

(watching it back to back with 2 is cool though direction of 2 is not up to par)

Inglorious
06-16-2004, 04:22 PM
I had to go with HALLOWEEN II. It has always creeped me out a little more and entertained me a little more too.

Based on class and originality, the first, but as my favorite in the series, the second is it.

CrazyKillah
06-16-2004, 09:15 PM
The original is my fave, though I love the entire series (the last 2 are even enjoyable as guilty pleasure fare).

!MorganOnyx!
06-19-2004, 11:09 AM
HALLOWEEN is by far the best movie but I voted for HALLOWEEN 2 because it's my fave to watch. I'm more likely to put that on than the original because it gets to the point quicker. It's easy to settle into because you know the score. Just chill out and watch. You are ready to watch the bodies pile up whilst being creeped out at the same time thanks to the wicked hospital setting!! :D

Halloween is a masterpiece and next to The Thing is Carpenter's best film, non of the sequels can hold its own up too the original IMO.

Damone

The original definately!

What I think made it work so well was that for the most part they kept him in the dark. Several scenes where the characters were going about their business and all you saw was Michael's mask in the darkness in the background. When they did show him in a day shot he was at a distance and not fully clear, like when JLC saw him standing by the car while looking out the classroom window.

I also thought Halloween 3 is extremely underrated. After watching it again I realized it's not really that bad of a movie.

I am allll the way sold on Halloween 2!

It includes that fabulous ending to part 1, and then continues itself properly.

I absolutely love the sideplots and really felt like Michael was unleashed in a real town with real people.

The claustrophobia aspect of the hospital and the sporadic stalking of the hospital employees leading up to Laurie is to DIE for...

Wow... I find it hard to believe that 'Halloween: Resurrection' has more votes than H5, H6, and H20. Not that I have a lot of love for any of those movies (although the Producer's Cut of H6 is one of the best Halloween sequels in my opinion), Resurrection was just a steaming pile of shit. I can't believe it got ONE vote, much less 5!

I pretty much expected the original to trump this poll but it is nice to see that my favorite, THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS, is in second... distant second I should say. It is interesting to note that after 104 votes not a single person has picked THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS. Even Season of the Witch, Curse of Michael Myers, and Resurrection, arguably the most hated entries in the series, managed to get at least a couple of votes. Here are my rankings:

THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS 10/10
HALLOWEEN 2 10/10
Halloween 8.5/10
The Revenge of Michael Myers 7.5/10
Halloween 3: Season of the Witch 7/10
The Curse of Michael Myers 6.5/10
H20 6/10
Resurrection 3.5/10

Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

I think a better question would have been, 'which was your favorite HalloweeN SEQUEL?'. As for me, it would have to be parts 2 and 4. 6 was pretty dam good, H20 ruined itself by not having LL Cool J get killed, and Resurrection completely lost my interest by the time Michael left that insane asylum. Hopefully Rob Zombie's version will land somewhere near the top of this list of favorite HalloweeN films.

Original Halloween...

followed by Halloween II.

I actually kind of liked Halloween III, as well. I read that orignally John Carpenter wanted each Halloween sequel to be a completey different, original movie with no continuity to the last. Obviously when Halloween III flopped, they had to bring back Michael Myers.

But yeah, I would have liked that concept as long as talented and creative people worked on each one.

Stabby McStab
09-02-2007, 02:21 PM
The first and second ones are the best. I have this fan edit that puts the two together and makes one long movie, it's great. 3 was a cool movie just for the fact they were going to try to make a bunch of films based around Halloween and not just Michael Myers.
