Amazing run-down on the masks, it's always fascinated me how hard it is to replicate the original mask in both looks and feelings evoked
What’s good in the hood, my dude?
Can’t wait for another Evolution o’ Michael Myers video this month (Halloween 3 should count by now, at least talk about the antagonists like what you did with SAW)
Yeah ikr
@@Jothomas214 Haha probably gonna wait to update when the final film of the new trilogy comes out, but I would love to include more info on H3, it's my fave sequel
@@TellItAnimated For sure they will😂
HUH i didnt know u were here.
The 2018 mask is fucking beautiful.
@UA-cam are Snowflakes no
@@6ix6ean Yes
@UA-cam are Snowflakes Yeah they are top tier. Along with the rob zombie mask and 2018 mask.
F*cking yes
@UA-cam are Snowflakes Halloween 4’s mask is extremely underrated. I used to hate it because I thought it looked goofy but that emotionless dumb looking blank face grew on me as i got older. It makes it creepy which in turn makes it terrifying bc imagine your finna get killed by a dude that’s pure evil and has the facial expression of goofball 😭
"This is the first film to show Michael's face exposed" Why does nobody remember the fact that Laurie literally ripped off Michael's mask and showed his face in the original movie?
They show him in Halloween 5 too
I think he meant the first time they showed his face for a prolonged period of time instead of just one scene
And when he jumps on and steals the car from the nurse and Loomis he’s not wearing a mask
I'm pretty sure he means like exposing his face the whole movie
@Spare None Different Actors have played Michael Myers but only Tyler Mane, Nick Castle, James Jude Courtney and George P. Wilbur have played Michael Myers Twice. Only Tyler Mane and James Jude Courtney have played the role in consecutive movies. A total of Six Actors have played Michael Myers.
One thing a lot of the masks get wrong are the eyebrows, they're supposed to be white and sculpted in so they're only visible sometimes in stark lighting.
@UA-cam are Snowflakes The only masks that get the eyebrows right after the two films with the original mask are Halloween 6, Rob Zombie and the 2018 timeline films.
@UA-cam are Snowflakes 2018 was a new sculpt just like every film after 2. It's just that some of the sculpts came closer to the Shatner mask than others. I think 6 was the best mask after the orginal until 2018.
@UA-cam are Snowflakes actually other than the 2 new movies this dude is right rob zombie and Halloween 6 are the most accurate and do look similar you’re too childish to admit it
H4 was the last mask to do it right with a converted Kirk
@@JarJarBinks4ever Idk what your talking about every mask except the orignal and h6 have painted on eyebrows. H4, H5, H20, and resurrection all have them. H6 has them painted on some masks but the hero mask in the movie has white eyebrows with weathering on them to bring out the detail. The H6 mask is honestly the best myers mask since the 78 one
Personally I think the Halloween 2018 mask is the best. The way it looks, the wear and tear of it shows it’s brutal and violent history. And it has a slight sinister smirk to it. When Myers got it from the trunk and put it back on was a great scene.
And I think the Kills mask one-upped it even. The burned/charred side just adds a whole other level of pure terror. It was terrifying in Kills.
The 2018 and 2021 may have messed up the story and aren't written as good as some of the first movies but they look make up for good action.
@@kerruo2631 They haven't messed up the story at all. Its better he has no motive to kill and just does it, its more inclined with the very first one.
@@Zack_410 Having no motive is cheesy. He went from an actual character with a goal to "Bad man go stabby stab". That's flanderization for you.
@@xxxod why would pure evil need a motive?
The only masks I really like are 1978, H2, Curse, 2018, and Kills.
With my favorites being H2 and 2018/Kills (they're pretty much the same aside from burns).
Yeah agree
completely agree
I liked the Rob Zombie mask, except when it started to get fucked up in the sequel.
Same here
Nothing beats the original and how it fit on Nick Castle’s face
Agreed
I think that’s why the 2018- looks so great bc Nick Castle returned for them and his head SHAPE can’t be beat!
@@RWMendez01 Technically he was only in one scene
@@jameshughes3241 wrong. PERIOD!
Yep
still find it funny it was originally Shatner's face that they made the mask from
The Halloween Kills 78 flashback mask is my new favorite. Looked incredible
I was just at a signing in Pasadena at the original Myers home last weekend, and it was amazing to see the actual 2018 mask at Nick Castle and Christopher Nelson’s booths, the detail is incredible! I was able to get my Myers ‘78 mask signed by Nick Castle himself!
Omg so lucky !!! 😭
Thats awesome, the actual Shape.
If i am not mistaken, the whole Debra Hill kept the original mask under her bed was debunked after Nick Castle said, he kept the mask after H1 was finished & a few years later, Debra Hill called Nick to see if she could use the mask again for H2
Debra did keep the hero mask under her bed, but it was only during production, but yes, I have long debunked that myth she had it before H2 that she had the hero mask, I have a video on my channel covering just the original Hero mask with Nick stating he owned the hero and had it on his wall, that also debunks the stupid myth of Debras smoking making the mask yellow, that wasn't the case at all, Nick had it stored in the open on a styrofoam head
16:55 that wasn't the first time they show Michael Myers face in a movie they showed it in the original Halloween when Jamie Lee Curtis rips It Off
Came here to say this, leaving satisfied.
And before that his dad unmasked him after he killed Judith
@@whitesneeks4499 Right!!!!
@UA-cam are Snowflakes your mistaking fandom for obsession
That’s not what he meant when he said that, he meant that we see Michaels face exposed through the mask for the first time 🤦🏽♀️
I saw a video of Tommy Lee Wallace taking a William Shatner Captain Kirk mask and easily recreating the original. When I saw that I was like theres no excuse for all the other variations of Michael Myers mask.
The 2018 mask isn’t aged in the style of latex. It’s aged in the style of a human.

Agreed
That goes to Rob Zombie's H2.
I think they were trying to imply that the mask isn't a mask, but more of part of michael himself, the embodiment of evil
@@TyePansa i like this
First two masks and last two are the only ones that don't make me laugh, that's the true micheal myers face for me! The hair on the h20 mask always tickled me 🤣
I'm sure if Michael Myers was in youe house wearing any of these masks you wouldn't be laughing..
@@deepblue8143 at first I would laugh cuz I would think it’s a prank then my laugh was definitely go away and track me would return
@@itsdomm6016 the opening scene to H4 is creepy as hell, Michael looks extremely eerie just standing silently in Jamie's room. I love the H4 and H5 mask!!
How do the Zombie ones make you laugh. Especially the second mask is terrifying.
@@flo25merzifari exactly!! With all due respect she is lying. The opening of H4 is terrifying as hell! Say what you want about 4 and 5 but they both look scary and different. Nothing will ever beat 80s horror.
This rundown on the masks is absolutely stunning! Thank you for doing this for us
The mask in Halloween 4 is super creepy and underrated
Nah that was the worst mask out of all of them😂
@@chrisnieto3620 That would be Ends, Rob Zombies Halloween II and H20... 4 actually is unfairly judged cause it's actually the mask with the least emotion. H20 has three completely obviously different masks and they're all ugly
@@themadrapper101 the 2018 and 1978 one are the best ones
I definitely agree I can’t put my finger on it but it just creeped me the fuck out
Flashback 78 mask for the win! 🏆 A mix of the old and the new! The oily splotchy paint(skin) and greasy matted hair are great and really give it an evil look. It looks like it’s made much better than the original 78 which seems to be very polarizing. I love the OG “shape”, but give a slight edge to the flashback version. 🎃 🔪
Fantastic vid Chris. Always love seeing you talk about stuff you have a passion for mate.
Nice profile pic
Michael's mask in Halloween 6 is by far my personal favourite.
Great video.
My personal favorites are:
1.- Halloween 1978 (Beautiful mask)
2.- Halloween 2007 - Rob Zombie take (I really like the deteriorated look)
3.- Halloween 2018 (The "old", "scarred" mask is superb)
Saludos.

Fantastic video! Favorite mask is the original. The long face, black eyes and pale white color give it the mostly ghostly appearance. One thing I would have liked to have seen touched on in the video was how some of the movies hid the actor's eyes and some showed them, and what reasons went into that decision. As you said, the more you see of the monster, the less scary it is. I always though it bizarre to fully display Michael's eyes behind the mask in Halloween II while they were blacked out in the original.
the one in the return of michael myers is so botched i can’t even 😭
I appreciate this video so much. Micheal Myers is such a big part of my childhood (I’d watch the Halloween movies secretly when my parents weren’t home) and learning so much history behind all the masks is a real treat for me. Very informative video and I love it! Thank you!
What an incredibly detailed history of the most iconic mask in film!

The Halloween 6 mask is fairly good.
I really loved this! Do more prop timeline videos like this! Fascinating to hear your expertise

FOR ME H6 IS THE ABSOLUTE MOST SCARY & INTIMIDATING MICHAEL & THATS PARTLY CUZ OF THE MASK.. THE MASK & HIS MOVEMENTS ALONE WERE SCARY AF & IMO IS THE BEST VERSION OF HIS MASK & BEST VERSION OF MICHAEL IN GEN..
I do think the original is the best but I do remember seeing H6 in theaters and when Michael appears and just how big he was and the mask had that messy looking hair it was a really intimidating and scary looking Michael Myers.
Awesome job, thanks for this.. its a video that has already been sent to both my sons who love this franchise almost as much as me

This is probably, hands down, one of the best look into the iconic mask. Seriously this is great man

The original Halloween mask and the 2018 version mask are my favorites
Same.
That's the same for everyone probably
Well this is a nicely done presentation about those masks. Makes wanna see you do some more videos like this with other iconic movie props.

The mask in the end of H20 that shows a lot of the actor’a eyes is explained in the beginning of resurrection (the man behind the mask wasn’t michael)
We don't talk about resurrection.
Doesn't mean it doesn't look abysmal
They didn't had a script for resurrection when they made that, and the plot in resurrection makes no sense whatsoever. That the guy was unable to speak doesn't explain why he didn't just removed the mask or how he survived being thrown through the windshield, hit by the ambulance and then pinned by it against a tree. The video guy might be biased against the Rob Zombie mask all he wants, but the H20 is objectively much worse.
@@lukedavis1436 😂😂😂
A great video. Hope you keep it up for years to come. My favorite masks as far as the movies are the original from the first two films and the 2018 mask. The only one I care to own is the 2018 one. However the scariest mask has to be the original Shatner mask pre-Myers.
I enjoyed that! halloween is iconic, so is the mask. Cool to see the appreciation of it. Hope the new movie is good.
Wow. I’d always heard about the Shatner mask but never saw the resemblance until you showed the screen shots of Halloween 2. Looks exactly like Shatner! 😳😳😳
Great video!... Justin Mabry is a name I remember back in 2004 when i was a big myers mask collector. The original and Halloween 2018 are by far my favourites, although I did like the definition in Stan Winstons for H20, which I had a Silver Shamrocks version ways back.
Thank you, Chris! I've been following for years and love all the cosplay/superhero content, but it's so awesome to see someone like you make an in depth horror video like this, especially with how knowledgeable you are on this stuff

Thanks for this! 🎃
Great Doc.Info Video on The Great, Michael Myers 👍
I think the Stan Winston H20 mask has a great sculpt. It was just lit too flat much of the time, and Miner wanted the giant eyeholes because he wanted to show Myers's eyes a lot, for whatever reason. So that throws it off a bit.
The video is amazing! And your doctor Loomis impression was accurate
Super video love it. One thing I believe is wrong is the fact the original 78 mask was not kept in a shoe box under a bed. Smoking wouldn’t have had an effect on it due to the fact it was under a bed in a box. I read and seen an interview the original mask was kept on a fire place mantle. The heat and smoke just killed it
There are several facts wrong in this video, sorry Chris. For starters, the Hero mask was kept by Nick Castle after filming H1 and he had hung the mask in his house above his fireplace on a styrofoam head, which caused the mask to yellow, there is even video of him saying so himself, which I have cut together on my channel, Debra asked for the mask back, cause nobody knew where it was then Nick gave it to her for H2, where she kept it stored under her bed after each day of shooting H2, when Dick Warlock was cast, he had eventually added Velcro to the back of the neck, cause he hated the neck flaring out which is why the stretch is so extreme, he actually said that himself, cause I had that question sent to him by Nick Mulpagano. During H2, when Warlock would pull on and pull off the mask, he would grab the hair and then pinch the nose as well as pull the eyecuts, which is why all those markings are on it, from the streaks and tips that was sprayed in the hair for H1 and also why the blonde shows through more. now as for H4, the masks were cast off a an 84 "The Mask" with kirk lineage, yes, but several backups were made, because the masks were very tiny on George Wilbur, which is why the neck extension was on it, the one that had the most detail, was the one Tom wears when he impales Kelly with the shotgun. And lastly H5, it had a nose appliance put over the original nose, not just due to Don having his nose broken, but because of how Greg Nicotero had modeled it off his face, on Dons lifecast, also the H6 mask that was used in H20, is owned by Sean Clark, TonyMoranFan on Michael-Myers.Net, is Darren Hughes as well, that's his username
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! You Nailed it!!! Halloween 1978 is the Greatest mask ever made!! Clearly my favorite!!!!
Great video my man!!!
always found how the mask looked in II to be the creepiest one growing up
Halloween Kills 2021 Theme : The Shape Official Video ( Remaster) Exclusive Uploadua-cam.com/video/mU9saXmrh2U/v-deo.html.....,
Yeah me too. Since it was weathered it looked the scariest to me.
This man or movie will NEVER be Old
@ 6:40 when you talk about going to the old video stores and even just being scared of the covers. Dude. You just took me back. SAME!!!
"I would put this in my top three, maybe even top four." Whut?
Was thinking the same thing….wt😀🎃😀🎃
Awesome run down!
Ok seriously, just subbed. Sending my TOTS '78 to Simon...f**k if this isn't an exciting gd time for Halloween fans! Keep up the good work and spirit, man. Happy Halloween!
I love these history videos!

Halloween 2 had the best and Scariest Michael Myers mask out of all the other ones for sure
0:41 wow the new mask looks AMAZING!!!!
Awesome presentation!
That Dr Loomis impression was so good. It actually kinda sounds like the late Donald Pleasence.
An awesome video!
Different type of video, I love it
Cool video & I agree with your ranking.🤘
the rob zombie one will forever be the best
wow u do an awesome Loomis impersonation xxx
Great video!
I personally thought Halloween 4’s goofy mask was creepy af
I now have to say that the Halloween kills mask is more scarier than the other mask, so of course it will be number 1, and I do like the 2018 mask. the original mask is good too, especially it was scary when Michael was stalking lourie. The scariest mask in my opinion now, is the Halloween Kills mask with the burn marks.

There are the 3 Silver Shamrock masks in the playground scene.
This is an interesting new content format
This was a nice way to spend my lunch. Thank u sir
The recent photo of the original mask is more disturbing now than it was in the movie.
You think with all the money these movie companies have they could duplicate the original mask and use it as it keeps getting the #1 nod when compared to other masks. Who's to say Halloween stores don't still sell this mask in the movies as that's where Michael Myers supposedly got it from (hardware store) in the original Halloween 1978
2018 mask and the 2021 mask were utterly terrifying.
Sweet video bro!
Awesome video very cool😎
The Rob Zombie 2007 remake and the 2018 sequel remake is obviously my favorite Michael masks
👍🏾 Subscribed; wonderful content!!
Awesome video 👍
AMAZING. I cannot wait for halloween kills!! Only 9 days until its out!!

There’s just something about the 2018 that feels more like Micheal Myers than any of the others. Just the sculpt and paint it just has that feel.
I agree man, that shits dope
@@joshcapa2901 for me H2018 feels like a watered down Rob Zombie michael myers.
@@xxxod in fairness that’s like saying that all masks are just reshaded version of the original.
The good ol warlock stretch . Always fun if you ask me
Great video bud.
I liked this video before I even seen it!
Unpopular opinion the 2009 mask is personality my favorite. The way it looks dirty deteriorated, just looks beautiful. I I didn’t mind the rip part either since Tyler mane face itself looked intimidating with his long beard and angry face. Then to top it off he’s by far the most brutal Michael.
I agree but tied with 1978. Zombies Portrayed an image of brutality as much as horror.
2007 one beats it for me
@@k9m42 Zombie Michael Myers would kick the ass of the Michael we got
Am I alone when I say I love the H4 and H5 mask? Maybe because I grew up with those ones but I find H4 to be particularly unsettling an eerie. The opening bedroom scene in Halloween 4 is so creepy! What of my favorite scenes of all time.
They're definitely both guilty pleasures for me
Me too omg !!!!
Here before this video goes viral!! Let’s GO!! I’m ready for Halloween kills!!
The freddy prop on the left is straight out of the movie poster, that is awesome!

Very cool!
Great video mate
Funny thing is that the cover of Halloween 4 has one of the most iconic images of the mask ever, almost better than the original. He looks absolutely narly in that image but that mask isn't anywhere in the movie. 🤔 Oh, and the 2018 looks like my grandmorther about to burst out crying.
It is in the movie. Sort of. They didn't do a good job converting the Kirks they received. All they had to do was rip the sideburns off and get rid of those dumb brows-- maybe add some weathering too, and it would have looked somewhat like the original 78 one. The round eyecuts also make it look friendly, unfortunately.
Give the Resurrection mask the rough 2018 treatment and we could have the best of the best.
Happy Thursday 😁 Chris.your well rounded COSE play teacher and great 👍 inverter i like your Tutorial making of the Halloween 🎃 kills hand 👌. Couldn't asked for anything else. It goes really good with my Halloween kills 🔪 costume. Good day mate 😊
New subscriber! 🧡🖤
For me the best mask is the current one from the last few films, on display on your desk. Definitely going to be my next Halloween costume. The worst mask for me is the one from Halloween 4 followed by 5.
What an amazing video. and yes, original mask is still the best.
That was a great video holy crap
Incredible video and loved your behind the scenes story for each of the mask! Simply awesome!!! Thank you Chris!
I have that same Steven Rhodes shirt, Chris! You got great taste! 😆
