Remember when Jamie Lee Curtis (Lorriane Strude i think her name is) cut off Michael’s head… if she did that, then how did michael come to life for the halloween resucretiin film… was it a remake… im only 19 so am i missing something here 
Michael switched places with a paramedic at the school, so the paramedic is the one who gets decapitated. Trust me, as silly as that sounds, its even sillier in the actual film.
ohhh… i dont remember that part
And he crushed the paramedics Larynx so he couldn’t say anything. It’s explained in the beginning of Halloween Resurrection. 
I always thought it would have been more interesting if the Michael/Shape at the beginning of H:20 (the best part of the film in my opinion) with the H6 style mask was the real deal and the one that went after Laurie in California turned out to be Danny Strode or Tommy or something (which would help to explain why that “Michael” felt so different).
Just leave it at H20, Resurrection was a bag of ass -__- Its A LOT better of an ending when Laurie chops off his head
What always gets me is how michael knows to put his hands on his mask like the paramedic did in the beginning of resurrection! Was he watching from the shadows at the end of h20 or what! Lol such continuity issues there
UHG!!! Im so glad you said that, it bothers me too! I also dunno why Laurie didnt just cut the damn rope, i mean okay i understand there were some issues because you “killed the wrong person” but come on. This man BUSTED through your door like he was walking through some hanging beads, attempted to stab your fake body and then continued to chase you to the roof -__- No.
EXACTLY wow I thought I was the only one who was bothered by this!
It’s better to just chalk up the entire beginning of Resurrection as Laurie’s hallucinations in the mental hospital. The rest of the movie can just be Harold running around as Michael.
Yeah it’s a stretch but better off that way.
You have to try REALLY hard to make me hate a Halloween film and Resurrection did that in spectacular fashion.
What a turd, what I hated about it most, aside from Busta “puke” Rhymes and Tyra “WTF” Banks, was that the film gave us a Michael without purpose, a Michael without passion, a Michael who now had no one significant to chase (and no one chasing him) so he just spends the running time wandering around his house aimlessly, killing off a bunch of kids that we, or at least I, didn’t give two shits about.
H20 suffered from that as well but at least it centered on Laurie. In the other films the cops were onto him, Loomis was onto him, he was being hunted while he himself was hunting, in HR he’s just…there.
It’s a real shame because I was really looking forward to that one when it came out when I heard that Rosenthal was coming back to direct…I can’t believe it’s the same man who gave us HalloweeN II. About the only two things I liked about it was that Rosenthal took the time and effort to recreate the original Myers house, the same can’t be said for H5 that tried to laughably pass off a gothic manor for the Myers house. 
I also liked Bianca Kajlich, she was somewhat likable and painfully hot.
I hated H8 and when it got to that scene with the black kid trying to take on Michael in what was more like a dance off than a fight it was an absolute laughing stock,quite good the way he kills the kid though and runs that monster mofo knife through him on the door but that was about the only thing in the entire movie that appealed to me.
I’m pretty sure in h20 “Laurie Strode” was in a car accident which she died in… Then had her new identity as “Keri Tate” or something along those lines to keep herself hidden from her brother!
Im only 20 and i could keep up with the best of the best (people who have been watching these since 1978 LoL)
Your biggest clue in Resurrection that it wasnt a remake…would have to be that LAURIE STRODE is actually in the movie…or the first 5 minutes of dialouge…
In H20 she faked her death, no one had anything to do with it. Just her. (Unless you get into the comics and all that) But, yes, her name was Keri Tate.
You put it perfectly into explanation, you just have to watch the films a few times and you can pick up on things like this… Although I will agree sometimes it is hard to watch resurrection it’s still a part of the franchise and will always hold a place on my movie shelf…
I’ve always despised the H:20 ending, I was p.o.'ed in the theater, it has always felt anti-Halloween to me. I mentioned in another recent thread that I felt Resurrection could have done something better, perhaps have Michael come back with no real explanation, but in an eerie and uneasy way that mimicked the ending to Halloween. Perhaps after Laurie decapitated him she sat down on the grass emotionally and physically exhausted and then later turned around and the body was missing. That or they could have used the fact that Michael in the opening segment had a totally different mask and maybe used Tommy or someone else in the series (perhaps Danny Strode if they ever wanted to connect parts 4-6 and the H:20-Resurrection realities/stories) as the killer that was eventually decapitated and the real Michael from the opening of H:20 was still out there.
I don’t think the Resurrection explanation was necessarily bad since Michael from the H:20 reality had to come back, it just felt dull and unsatisfactory, like a tv show twist instead of something cinematic.
If that wasn’t Michael (as ressurrection lead us on to believe) then why did he try to attack and kill laurie in the van?? H20 is my ending to the original trilogy because I like the fact that Laurie got her revenge on her brother for putting her through many years of terror and heartache from the loss of friends and loved ones murdered by her brother Michael.
It was actually written in the small print that they could never kill off the boogeyman from the franchise’ so not only was it a familiar line in the script but was also stamped down in the small print of the franchise JLC couldn’t believe it that she wasn’t killing him off for good in H20.
Actually, if you watch that scene in the van closely he doesn’t really do anything that couldn’t also be interpreted as a normal guy trying to get her attention and to help him.
We see him struggle to get out of the body bag, we see him move toward the front of the van to Laurie, we see him crash through the windshield (possibly survivable) and then stand up, this is something that we all would do if we couldn’t speak and were trying to get someone to help us.
The only part I find difficult to believe is that anyone besides Michael could survive getting their lower half crushed and pinned between the van and the tree, at the very least I would think, if we accept that it wasn’t Michael, that by the time Laurie got down the hill to him he would have been unconscious from extreme blood loss, no way would he have been able to move let alone raise his hand like he did.
Hell even Michael momentarily loses consciousness after he gets stabbed or shot lol.
I literally am watching Halloween h20 right now and that explanation isn’t even possible:man_facepalming:t3: At no point does it show him crush a paramedics larynx or switch places. Laurie stabs his ass up until he falls over the balcony onto the table below in the living room. She walks down there and was gonna stab him again and the security guard (LL Cool J) grabs her and says he’s dead, he’s dead. It then shows him being zipped up in a body bag outside on a paramedic bed. They stroll him into the coroners van. As they are doing this Laurie grabs the ax from the hood of a police car as she walks toward the van. She then grabs a cops gun from his holster and takes the coroner van. As she’s speeding away in the van, Michael wakes up inside a body bag and starts working his way out. She sees him in rear view mirror. As he gets out and lunges for her she slams on the brakes causing him to fly out the front window. He then stands up after a few moments and she smacks his ass head on with the van and rolls down a big a hillside where he is pinned between a tree and the van. She decapitates him with ax while he reaches out for her. If it was a paramedic he would have took the damn mask off if he couldn’t talk. That is the one of the most ridiculous theories I’ve heard:joy:
