Dude, honestly I think the whole conversation is cancer. John Carpenter doesnt fully know what Michael REALLY is. Like you said, its the mystery of Michael that makes him scary. This post was bound for conflict as everyone has different opinions. Ultimately though, it doesnt mean jackshit as there is no real meaning of defintion as to what Michael is (which is what I love about him).
throughout the whole movie loomis explains how he isn’t human, not sure how you got the idea the movie was trying to tell you he’s human. he phases in and out places like the bush, laurie’s yard, the wallace house he also gets stabbed in the neck and eye and keeps on coming, pretty sure that would give you an idea he isn’t a normal human, he’s simply a man driven by a force.
by the way I appreciate you editing your post to something more civil than what you originally wrote to me
Loomis says hes not human metaphorically. Oh god you make me cringe so bad. Getting the stabbed in the neck and gut are all things one person could realistically survive. The fact he keeps going without pain is part of that supernatural edge, that thing that makes him that much more more than a man. Youre a total noob.
you’re just assuming its metaphorical, I guess the famous evil speech loomis gave was just metaphorical lol okay sure you can think that. ‘‘Getting the stabbed in the neck and gut are all things one person could realistically survive. The fact he keeps going without pain is part of that supernatural’’ getting stabbed directly in the neck with a knitting needle would kill a normal human. you claim i’m the one over analyzing…Again what are you arguing with me about I’m the one saying he’s much more than a man the entire film and hes part supernatural! you’re the one saying he’s a mortal man! ‘‘michael myers was a normal mortal human throughout the first film’’ how delusional can you get
no, not asking for help… I just want the mods to do their job, witch is to get rid of arguments like this.
(edit: and quite honestly you should be banned for a week for being so disrespectful with all the rude unnecessary name calling…
After reading the article it just kind of suggests MrBride is out of touch with the original movie. Suggesting he was human in that movie makes no sense as others have pointed out in the thread, humans don’t get their eye gouged out, stabbed multiple times, shot 6 times point blank, and finally fall from the second story of a house and live…let alone get up and disappear.
I’m expecting they will probably just portray Michael as just a psychopath in a mask. Which in turn will take away the mystic of the character and bring him down a notch from other movie monster/slasher icons.
