Blacked out eyes or visible eyes ?

Visible eyes. Makes it scarier for me. I’m probably one of the only people who actually liked how much of Michael’s eyes we saw in H20.

Same. I don’t see the logic in the argument that the scary thing about Michael is that he’s human and could be anyone off the street, but somehow not want to see his eyes because that makes him seem human and not like a ghost. I’ve never once bought into the idea that Michael Myers is anything more than an individual with a behavior disorder.

I agree, to a certain extent. Yes, Michael is a human man, but in order for him to survive the punishment he receives even in the first movie (stabbed in the neck, eye & chest and SIX bullets pumped into him, falling from the 2nd storey of a house onto his back), there’s a little more going on there than just a cold blooded psychopath. It’s like John Carpenter said, he’s just a man but with a bit of a supernatural undercurrent. There’d have to be, really.

Carpenter also said he’s unknown and a force of nature

Blacked out eyes all the way, though, I will admit, it can be creepy at times where you can see his eyes. For example, when he kills Alice in H2 and you can see that crazed look in his eyes. Creepy asf.

Blacked out hands down. It’s just scarier. We saw his eyes too much in H2 but luckily the mask looking so terrifying made up for it. That’s the one thing I really liked about H6 and it just makes Michael more mythical and creepier. And that’s the biggest reason why Michael in H20 was a joke. He just looked downright silly.

Those 4 scenes in 2 actually work though, and Carpenter directed the scene where Warlock stabs the girl in the throat

Blacked out eyes…by far…the scariest.

Blacked out through lighting or fabric or whatnot 100%. Lends credence to Loomis’ blackest eyes speech and seeing the eyes in H:20 and many scenes in Resurrection with the visible eyes are terrible looking.

H6 had very good lighting and camera work overall. The fact that they didn’t use fabric like H4 or H5 and just good lighting puts it alongside the Cundey lit films.

Couldn’t agree more! The H20 & H8 eye’s look goofy.

The Resurrection mask looks great in the shadows with blacked out eyes. This is a promo shot from the film.

The Resurrection mask itself didn’t have blacked out eyes, they just gave Brad Loree “Batman eyes”, by applying black eye shadow around his eyes, making him look almost like a raccoon.

I know Im saying this is what the mask looks with natural shadows blacking out the eyes, imagine if the whole movie he looked like that

Shapeless86 · January 31, 2020, 11:23am

I honestly think that look is really silly. I’m an advocate of being able to see the eyes normally. I don’t like it when they’re being hidden.

Dr.loomis78 · January 31, 2020, 1:03pm

That is cool looking

Dr.loomis78 · January 31, 2020, 1:05pm

So your saying you dig the H20 look?

Shapeless86 · January 31, 2020, 3:16pm

I actually do.

Dr.loomis78 · January 31, 2020, 3:54pm

I like his look but only in the dark shady scene’s.

Blackest Eyes for sure, it totally makes him more supernatural and frightening while showing no remorse for anything. But, seeing a visible eye here and there ain’t bad either like when he kills john in part 6 on the fuse box and the lights flicker on and off showing his eyes was very creepy.

Think this pic with eyes almost distorted looks pretty damn creepy.
