At the end of the day, its a fucking film. People think too much into it. John Carpenter changes his answer on what Michael is all the time as he doesnt give a flying fuck as much as you lot would like to think. Believe it or not John isnt a fan of the movie like all of us are. Its just a film he made which hes proud of, if that. Its a film. YOU decide what Michael is. There is no definitive answers. I didnt have this mindset but from the replies I received to my last reply on this post, either all of you are children or grown full men with an attitude that stinks like my dogs ass. So how about stop whining about what Michael is and decide for yourself. No right or wrong answers. bunch of jackasses.
As has already been conveyed here, playing this facade that he started as a “regular human” is silly as many scenes in H1 itself, and ESPECIALLY the ending, made it quite clear he was not normal, and Loomis sold that the entire movie. People actually debating this or trying to argue around it is silly. I would argue that point being hammered him is what etched Michael in history as the quintessential boogeyman in films.
I think the remake humanizing him, while interesting, was part of what largely killed the mystique of the character.
I understand that you have to do new things over time, but this is part of why attempts at prolonging Michael’s story has been problematic.
‘‘michael myers it a mortal human being’’ is what you said, now you are saying he’s part supernatural, witch is exactly what I said so i don’t see why you are arguing
he’s a man with supernatural FLAVOUR? …what? I’ve said manny times that he is part man part supernatural what are you arguing? in your original post you made it sound like myers is a normal human also show me when john carpenter just referred to him as just a man.

mammer:So I guess john carpenter was just wrong when he said michael myers is part supernatural force
So I guess John Carpenter was wrong when he also said and has said multiple times that he is a man. Hes a man with a supernatural FLAVOUR. Like a force of nature. Not LITERALLY supernatural…

Carpenter has referred to him as a man with a supernatural edge. If you want to bring me up on every little thing I have said then we can talk about your english if you want? Witch? You do realise thats those people who fly on broomsticks right?

Yh thats what Michael was, until the end when it makes you question the whole thing. You know nothing about film making do you? You’re just a 10 year old Michael Myers fan boy probably who loves every other film in the series which is actually a pile of trash and ruined the original idea of Michael Myers IMO.

I guess that means I know nothing and I’m 10 years old and I’m also a fanboy of every movie. It’s sad people like you stoop so low, act so childish and resort to name calling when someone calls them out on their bs.

People overthink it too much I think.
Michael Myers is/was without a doubt a mortal human being. Throughout the whole film of Halloween 1978, Michael is a psychopath and just that. The end where he is getting stabbed in the neck and gut, are realistically things one could survive. Not saying you could just carry on without being in pain like Michael did (or maybe he was in pain but hes just so mentally F-ed that hes also become disconnected from pain as hes just so emotionless). At the end when he gets shot and then disappears, was simply for the film. Like a cliff hanger. Hes a man but he just walked off after getting shot right after dr.loomis said that he was in fact the boogeyman. So was he the boogeyman? Was he a man? Those are just questions ment to be asked by the audience and never to be answered. That was John Carpenters idea and thats exactly what the film managed to do. But ultimately, Michael is just a man. The fact he survived 6 shots was simply for the end of the film. To scare you. Its simple and pure genius at the same time.
If however, you include the Halloween films from 4-8 then yes Michael is just immortal pretty much. But as for what Michael Myers originally was and what John Carpenter created him as, he is just like you and me but completely gone, mentally. He is disconnected from reality, pain, fear and sanity which I suppose makes him almost supernatural in a way because if you were to be disconnected from all the things you are pretty much a dead person. Hes like a dead person walking the streets among us, and dead those will be who are unfortunate to cross his path.
he phases in and out of areas, i’m pretty sure he’s more than just a mortal man

Hes half and half. The point I was trying to make. Satan didnt cum him out. He was born normally and is a man BUT has some sort of supernatural thing going on but still a man. People want to over analyse my comment like they do with Michael Myers too. John Carpenter dont give a damn really what Michael is. Everything was for the effect of the first film ( not knowing it would grow to be what it is now ) and simply that.

I mean i can kinda agree with you there, although I’m more for just keeping it ambiguous. While saying he kills because of a cult or that a witch cursed the Myers name (i didn’t like Halloween Reflections) makes Myers less scary, saying that he is a mortal man doesn’t really work either. It’s supposed to be a mystery that leaves the audience asking questions that will only lead to more questions. To me, The Shape is an intangible force but really there is no way to be sure. Like I said earlier it’s meant to start discussions such as this one, one of the reasons why it’s my favorite movie.

I didnt change my mind at all. Michael is a mortal human being for all intensive purposes. Thats what the film leads you to believe right until the end when he disappears making you question where did he go? What is he? So no one knows what Michael is. This topic shouldnt even be up for debate.
