Here are a few things that took me THIS long to notice;
In H2, the kid that went to Haddonfield Memorial had a razor stuck in his mouth.
In the 2009 H2 Poster, Mikey is using a knife that was never in the film.
James Carter’s “Elrod” knife was named after the knife of the old couple in the beginning of 81’s H2.
Maybe not factual, but this stand out to me;
Halloween & Halloween II- The Originals
Halloween III & Halloween 6- The Let-Downs
Halloween 4 & Halloween 5- The Extensions
Halloween H20 & Halloween: Resurrection- The Re-Hypes
Halloween & Halloween II- The New Breed
Just seems that they can be grouped together.
Things I Can’t Figure Out
How does Michael come back with a new mask EVERY film? (Excluding RZ H2) I know a few films showed him obtaining the mask, but not all.
What was the purpose of giving Michael green coveralls in 1981’s H2?
Why is Halloween III such a great film even though Michael’s not in it?
What in the HELL in Halloween 3 going to be about?
Will we ever see a clash between Michael and Freddy/Jason/Pinhead? (Hope not)
Would’nt it be funny if Michael got ahold of a Silver Shamrock mask in the next film?
Hope I did’nt waste too much of your time,

I’ll let the others answer about the originals but the knife used on the RZ H2 poster is used in the film. It’s in the beginning when he stabs the nurse. Also I believe the razor in the mouth was to say check your candy before you eat it. Well hope that helps.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the knife he uses in the beginning looks to be the same knife used in H9. Therefore, it has a slant at the bottom of the blade. Where as the knife on the poster has a Lamson-style blade.
the knife used in the remake (h9) is suppose to be the same one in the begining of H2…he doesnt get the hunter style knife til later in H2…never had a slanted blade in H9 either…?..have you seen H9?<<thats an honest question all together your questions are quite confusing
this is yet another reason i feel the Halloween series was safe in the hands of rob. at least we know he would never have Michael squaring off against another horror icon. leave the UFC out of horror films!!! it doesnt make the least bit of since. retarded i would venture to say.
and yeah it took me along time to realize that was a razor blade in the kids mouth. crazy to think people have actually done that
I never said anything about the Bowie knife. I know that it’s SUPPOSED to be the same one from H9, but it’s not adding up to me. I see screenshots of him holding a regular bladed knife, and then shots of him using the H9 knife that James Carter reproduces with the slant at bottom. I’m going to see what he says. Oh, and nice try at humiliating me.
The knife in the beginning of RZH2 is not the same knife from RZH1 (it’s just a knife he has in Laurie’s dream).
As the for mask questions, the mask in H1 and 2 are the same mask, the second is a continuation of the original. We see Michael get his new mask in H4…the masks in H5 and H6 are supposed to be the same mask as H4. We never see him obtain his mask in H20, although we KNOW he had to, since H20 is a sequel to H2 (his mask burns up at the end of H2). And we also do not see him obtain his mask in H8. Again, we know he had to get a new one since he used the mask in H20 to stage his escape. So we’re left to assume he acquired the mask in H8 sometime between 1998 and 2002. Whew.
The mask in H1 & H2 is the same exact mask (not looked after in between filming and worn by diferent actors = different look), H4 is a new mask as the original mask was supposed to have burned with Myers at the end of H2, the H4 mask was aparently misplaced after filming the movie (turned up a few years ago and now owned by Crofader) and a new one made for H5 (supposed to be the same mask despite not looking a thing like it), H6 could easily have been a replacement mask as 6 years pass between H5 & 6, H20 ignores H4-6 so this would have had to have been a new mask (as original burned in H2 and 20 years have passed between movies) and Resurrection would also have to be a new mask due to H20’s mask remaining on the head of the paramedic in the flashback (again, several years pass making this very plausable)
Myers had green coveralls in both the original movie and H2, then (if memory serves correctly) blue in H4&5, grey/blue in H6 and charcoal/blue in H20/Resurrection?
This is a matter of opinion and although I liked it I wouldn;t go as far as to say it was a GREAT film, enjoyable yes but far from being great (although the score by Carpenter & Howarth was brilliant!!)
No idea… since it’s on hold for the time being it’s anyone’s guess as they may even option an entirely new script before it’s back on schedule?
I doubt it but never say never in Hollywood… I think the novelty of VS movies wore off pretty quickly (with FvsJ being half decent but both AvsP movies being awful) and is no longer an attractive option to studios (remakes seem to be the current lazy trend rather than ceative writing!)
you needa do some research boah!!!
