Who was the Man In Black?

Michael-Myers.net General Discussion

OK I have a simple question this time and it has nothing to do with if Michael ever went to Walmart or target. :laughing:

Who was the man in black with the boots that busted our man out of jail in part V?
:finga:

2

Dr. Wynn. This was revealed in Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers.

However at the time of Halloween 5 noone knew. The idea of (and this isnā€™t a joke!) it being Michaelā€™s twin brother was even entertained! :open_mouth: :laughing:

Benny is correct. Furthermore, he is apparently who takes care of Michael. The leader of the cult, Thorn. (In which Michael is apart of)

This is all according to part 5 and specifically 6. In order to explain Michaelā€™s purpose and ability to kill his family.

:sunglasses: :rock: :stuck_out_tongue:

5

:laughing:

The REAL man in black! :rock:

6

OK I need to go back and watch VI as for some reason I was vored and reviewed IV & V over the weekend as was lost. I was also amazed he still had the mask on in his jail cellā€¦Weird.

Thanks

Pffft!! Sorry I had to quote.lol

On the side note, wouldā€™ve been cool if the man in black were Conal Cochran :slight_smile:

8

This is why H-5 H-6 is at the bottom of my listā€¦ :confused:

9

Yea, Iā€™m not too fond of the whole Thorn aspect, but H6 is easily one of my favorite installments. Mostly because GPWā€™s look and sheer brutality.

10

Thats the reason its even on my LISTā€¦ :laughing:

11

Donald Shanks played the role as well as Myers if Iā€™m correct.

12

Well, weā€™re doinā€™ mighty fine, I do suppose,
In our streak of lightninā€™ cars and fancy clothes,
But just so weā€™re reminded of the ones who are held back,
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.
Ah, Iā€™d love to wear a rainbow every day,
And tell the world that everythingā€™s OK,
But Iā€™ll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, Iā€™m the Man In Black.

Yes I had heard that this was originally planned out to indeed be Michaelā€™s twin brother (ahem cough :blush: ).
It was a stretch to reveal TMIB as Wynn but better than the original idea by far.

Whilst I do like H4, 5 & 6, I have never liked the notion that Michael is cared for by the Thorn community, Michael is and always will be an Unstoppable Shape that cannot be reasoned with or housed, no matter who you are.

I always had a bit of an issue with the Thorn symbol burnt into the stack of bails too, Is Michael suppose to have does such a perfect design inbetween his frenzied killing or did the MIB come along after and create this??

Also, Is Jamieā€™s baby suppose to be her Uncles handy work while she stayed imprisoned by Wynn? Ewwwww!!! :open_mouth:

14

I always felt that it was the Thorn cult that burned that symbol to announce that Myers was back. Just cant see Michael taking time out to throw up gang signs. :laughing:

15

Agreed!!! Whats ya take on Jamies Baby too???

16

I canā€™t remember where I read thisā€¦either Fangoria or Gorezone I think. Wasnā€™t Myers supposed to give birth to a new baby in part 6? That is why George Wilbur is ā€œFatterā€ in the movie? (Myers is pregnant [NO JOKE!] and was supposed to cut his belly open and his spawn was supposed to fall out and a ā€œnewā€ Myers is reborn or something like that.)

17

Probably :laughing:

18

I really dont want to think about the possibility of an incest storyline, but I honestly remember reading ā€œsomewhereā€ that Michael was supposed to be the father. Part 6 isnt one of my regular watches so maybe who has more knowledge can answer that one.

19

Words fail me right now :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth:
Thats the most lame idea everā€¦ Cant believe they would even consider this?? :unamused:

20

Hey Billy, if youā€™re referring to this issue of Fangoria, Iā€™m pretty sure that wasnā€™t in there! haha, I would have remembered that for sure! :laughing:
