we don't know when the robbery of the store happen, just the alarm went off.we don't know id the owner trip the alarm, to get police there. its halloween .
Ive only heard people bring up the actress' ages just recently. That never stood out or bothered me at all. They dont look 16 but they could pass as seniors. Im 28 and some days i think i could walk back into high school and blend in. Girls from that era looked much more mature anyways. Jamie looks older than 19.
I agree. I never thought that Jamie was younger than the other two girls. It’s not something I even thought about watching the film. I don’t think most people care about the age differences between actors/characters anyways.
Looper:“WHY DIDN’T LOOMIS CONTACT THE POLICE?” The very next scene: Loomis in front of a sheriffs cruiser, talking to the police. This list is really stupid.
07foxmulder they said he never contacted the police regarding the the truck accident which showed the dead body. Had he done that the cops would’ve cooperated easily
The “stray” matchbook is the same matchbook that Marion used to light her match in the car while Loomis was riding with her and he clearly looks at it when she uses it.
Random matchbook and abandoned car is some how enough proof Micheal had been there. Ummm you mean the same matchbook that he saw Marion spark up with? What about the hospital gown that Loomis finds too? I bet whoever wrote this script, has seen the movie once
1:40 um, he didn't just find a random ass matchbook, it was the same one that the nurse he was literally driving with at the beginning had, and although yeah I'm sure other people could buy those too, but those white pecies of cloth loomis found are literally the robes that michael was wearing when he was at the smiths grove sanitarium, so duh, of course he knows its michael.
You should have also mentionned the fact that the movie is supposed to take place in Illinois in late October but the scenery does not look like autumn in the midwest at all. The movie was filmed in southern California in the spring.
Actually as someone from southern illinois the only problem i have with the scenery is the abscence of any colorful leaves. Otherwise it is convincing for mid to late autumn.
The one about the store robbing. That scene with Laurie watching him through the window she doesn't break her gaze and he disappears. Are we not gonna talk about how that happened.
My favorite subtle problem is when Loomis discovers the pickup you can see mountains in the background...in Illinois? Then you can see a palm tree in an early neighborhood shot. Just fun things that don't detract from the movie.
Andrea Turnquist Not only did they have to bring them in, they had to recycle them lol After one scene was filmed, the crew would pick up all of the dead leaves so they could be used in a different scene.
I watch the original Halloween II more and Halloween 4.. I watch 5 & 6 more than the original only cause I like 4 so much and 5 is the sloppy continuation but still has some awesome scenes.
The murders hadn't happened yet. The sheriffs had no idea of the severity of the situation yet. At that point they would have considered it under pending investigation. They didnt think it was a big deal, and really didn't want to bother, rather than blame Loomis. Laurie was scared shitless, and just wanted to run. In a situation like that, terrified, in shock, your not sticking around to make sure a killer wearing a Halloween mask who just killed all your friends you were just talking to, and posed them all around the house, is good and dead. Shes a high school girl, not Sarah Conner. Your points are dumb...
Which was stupid as every sequel after the original Halloween 2. This franchise is clearly a cash grab, rather than good cinema. Even if the movie is a piece of crap, they know morons will still go to see it, and buy it. And the last Terminator was the biggest flop of the series. So, so much for the Sarah Conner gimmick...
It's possible that alarm had been going off for hours. I always thought that maybe the store owner showed up much later, reported the break in and called cops. In a smaller town, most shops open later in the day.
and they didn't even mention the fact that she clearly sees him following her multiple times (even once outside her house) but apparently she didn't think that merited a call to the cops and, for some reason, didn't even believe the kid when he claims to have seen him
Loomis knows michael was at the scene of the red truck on the side of the road because michaels hospital clothes were there?? So loomis doesnt just assume it must of been michael, its obvious because michaels clothes are right there 😂😂
Halloween 1 and the Exorcist are overrated, I still absolutely LOVE! both of them.. But eh, I've watched loads and loads of horror movies I like a lot more than both of them, even some of Halloween's sequels I like more than the first, like Halloween 2 and 3.. Would watch them over the first any day.
MechaMinilla99 I respect your opinion, the reason I call it the best horror film is because of how realistic it is, in any place, someone could be being stalked and eventually murdered, there are flaws for sure, but the simple realistic concept is what sells it for me. But again, I understand you.
I always thought that why Loomis didn't report/describe the car Michael has stole, too? He drove around the town all day freely, could've been found with it's number plate. Or even with the symbol of the hospital on the car. And besides that, why Michael didn't steal that truck? Doesn't he know how to drive that or was he sure about Loomis won't give his car away? :D Anyways, still my favorite movie of all time.
This guy is nitpicking to the fullest... Other horror classics have flaws as well... The thing that sucked about back in the day is that you couldn't waste film, so if the acting was superb and little errors were caught on camera you had to kinda role with it but that destroy a movie... A whole lot of movies have plot holes till this day but you wouldn't complain about that and if you do then what's the point of watching films.
It’s not so much that they couldn’t waste film because of how long ago it was filmed, it’s that Halloween was an independent film. Its budget was less than 1.5 million (today’s dollars).
Exposing significant plotholes that make no sense such as Dr. Loomis not wanting to cause a panic isn't nitpicking. Its perfectly legitimate criticism against a stupid fucking thing.
When loomis calls on the phonebooth at the car of the mechanist, I always thought he already found that car, thats why he calls to warn the people, when he then calls to tell he is coming, and then goes to check the car out before leaving again, to do a quick check if its really possible its michael. And since marion ahd that matchcase, off course it doesnt explain why its on the ground at another car.. But i guess Loomis figures because of the asylum clothing its Michaels doing.. So it really didnt feel like a "Mistake" to me :-)
About the mask being stolen timeline back then the alarm could of been going on all night into the morning it wouldn't stop until the owner shuts it off. The night rider Michael is he could of took the mask n knifes during the night. My thoughts
What they're complaining about is the fact that Michael is wearing the mask before school (you can see it when Laurie drops off the keys at the Myers house) yet the alarm at the store is still going off after school.
I disagree about the ages. To me, Jamie Lee looked AND acted older than her compatriots. I think they pulled it off just fine, and I had NEVER even thought of their ages as having any bearing on my enjoyment of the film whatsoever. So this is artificial BS.
What about Halloween 3 Season of the Witch?! Capitalist murdering children to encourage crops to grow because he read somewhere that druids used to do it. I dare you to come up with a plot that makes more cents...cause no way it broke $1 opening night 👻
Firstly, if Loomis contacted the police early on in the movie, Micheal would just have massacred them all and if all of Laurie's friends had survived then they were wouldn't be any point in the movie. Second, when Loomis shoots Micheal, he already knows that he isn't dead because he's been his psychiatrist since Micheal killed Judith and he knows what makes him tick.
Who cares about the girls ages. For the other two girls that were older they looked really good for their age to pass for teenagers. I mean come on who wouldn't want to look younger than they are 😉
I LOVE the little mishaps you pointed out!! I can't believe I missed them. I LOVE Halloween and Michael Myers! They are my faves even with their Oppsies!! Halloween will ALWAYS be a C L A S S I C ! ! P.S. I also enjoy watching Freddy fall over the banister in front of Nancy's room onto a mattress placed on the stairs in Elm St. 1!! :)) I SO enjoy catching stuff like that in movies.
How far do they travel in car to babysit ? It is now dark , so quite some journey right ? Michael's house as a child is just over the road from where the babysitters are babysitting, because the stolen Dr Loomis car that Michael drives is parked up just across the road, so isn't this walking distance ?
Also...how can a 5 or 6 yr old repeatedly stab his much older sister.Judith she could have kicked the crap out him after the first stab.thus maybe not dying.......but guess hiding the boobs was priority lol.....also when the Meyers come home and see Micheal with a bloody knife...you think they would rush inside to see who got knifed...nope they stand there and stare at him for a long time.kinda dumb....but still luv the movie hahahaha
This is my boyfriends favorite movie series. He showed this to me for the first time recently. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a classic movie that was absolute crap. Boring - the first 2/3 are just a creepy guy watching her. Stupidity - as you say, the girl gives the guy every opportunity to kill her and he does not succeed by only dumb luck. But seriously, if you look at each scene where she is getting attacked, every single one she sees where he’s coming from or is, purposefully turns her back to him, drops the knife repeatedly, even dropping it RIGHT next to his hand in the last scene. She even just cowers stupidly with her back to him in the hallway when she obviously knows he’s getting up and about to kill her. Even for older movies, this stands out to me as very poor writing. No one would be like this. The only explanation is she is suicidal and happy to let the kids she’s babysitting die along with her. Overall plain infuriating to watch and just way too many bad decisions. Common for horror movies I know, but come on this is in its own category it’s so bad. 1/10 would not recommend. Don’t let “classics” get away with poor writing because everyone else likes them. I’ll have to keep watching these movies for my boyfriends sake and in exchange he’ll sit through the ghibli movies for me (he hates anime)
This list is absolutely rubbish. 1. A vast majority of films and tv shows have always had 20+ year olds play teenagers. That’s not even a glaring issue. Also Jamie Lee didn’t look that much younger than pj and Nancy. It wasn’t a glaringly obvious issue or “distracting” at all. 2. This one is the absolute worst. You say he brings his concerns to the “police” but is brushed off, then you show him talking to Dr Wynn at Smiths Grove Sanatorium... “Somehow surmises that the abandoned car and stray matchbook are solid proof Micheal was there” Ummm gee maybe also the hospital gown that you failed to mention but even showed Loomis finding it in the clip, also the “stray matchbook” is the exact same as the one Nurse Marion was using in the car that was stolen by Micheal. Also he was just on the phone with the police, and warned them that Micheal was coming to Haddonfield, just finding evidence Micheal was there isn’t enough to call the police again since once again Loomis knows where Micheal is headed and knows they still won’t believe them. 3. Loomis doesn’t want to create a panic in Haddonfield, and so far Brackett is just entertaining Loomis but hasn’t seen enough evidence to believe Micheal is even in Haddonfield besides a dead dog at the Myers house, so definitely not enough to warrant a manhunt for a person in an area 250 miles away from where he was last seen. 4. This is the only fair one. But also it’s just implied it was Micheal that busted in and stole the stuff, but it’s never stated specifically that it was him. Now I have no doubt in my mind it was intended to have been Micheal that broke in and they just kinda fudged up the timeline a little, but again, it’s not that big of a deal and not that noticeable until it’s pointed out. 4. Laurie is in shock. She just found her friends murdered and was almost just murdered herself. The first “didn’t know he was still alive” is completely acceptable. The second, well again she’s in shock and had just stabbed this man in the neck, jabbed an eye and stabbed him with a kitchen knife in the sternum and he laid on the ground not moving even as she walked passed him. Again perfectly acceptable for her to think that know he’s dead or at least unconscious due to the severity of the injuries she’s inflicted. “Her and Loomis decide to have a conversation” are you kidding me? Laurie is absolutely shook to her core and just witnessed Micheal get shot 6 times at close range and fall 20 feet. Any normal human being would be dead at that point. And all she does is ask a single question. And Loomis was rightfully answering and seeing if she was ok, before looking to where Micheals dead body should’ve been. Even if they decided to go make sure he was dead. They still would’ve had to walk down the stairs and he would’ve been gone by the time they got there 5. A majority of these are unnoticeable and PJ stumbling over the camera track just added more to the scene because she had been drinking at that point. Whoever wrote the script for this, obviously has only seen the movie once and googled “mistakes from Halloween” to make this video.
Ive been harping that mask robbery time frame for years and have been called an idiot by detractors, including my wife, who say "No, Michael wasn't the robber that's just coincidental" but if that's true: why steal a mask, knives and rope? Plus, as Loomis is talking to sheriff brackett in front of the store, Michael just drives by unnoticed, clearly being at the scene still
The matchbook in the truck wasn't random. It was the matches the nurse had in the car when Loomis and her were parked at the hospital . So its showing Michaek stole the nurses matches while he was escaping in her car at hospital.
It always frustrates me that it took her so long to break the glass door in the kitchen to escape. She spends what feels like an entire minute trying to twist a locked door knob on a glass door, then when he's five steps away she finally breaks the glass.
So....what about the fact that Lorrie & Annie were smoking a fat doobie in the car with the windows up and Sheriff Bracket miraculously didn't notice the smell
imagine back then smoking some weed paranoid and you high as hell and Michael appears out of the bushes on u just staring at u. You will be beyond scared.
I don't know if I agree with everything. I knew the actresses where in their 20's but they looked young enough and did well that I didn't realize they were nearly 30 years old. And while Loomis wasn't seen reporting every or any particular incident I would say for a movie it wasn't necessary to go into that much detail. Missing clues things going unreported for whatever reason are realistic things. Not to say these things are being complained about but generally speaking some nitpick movies looking for them to be perfect but life isn't perfect. And that's what makes these fictional stories even somewhat realistic as they aren't polished to perfection as to what should happen in any given situation. If I had a dollar for everything I've seen that people should do in a situation and don't I'd be rich lol.
This was a reply to someone else, but I feel it needs to be its own comment. He very well could’ve robbed the hardware store earlier in the day. Up until the 2000s, there were still fire alarms that weren’t on a network and just made noise as a deterrent. Meaning that it could’ve been hours before anyone heard the alarm to call the police.
You can also see a local citizen stand up on the porch looking over the hedge as the two girls walk away from the puff of smoke scene. If you forget about Halloween 2, you do have to ask why Michael decided to pick Laurie and the girls to stalk.
He just must picked somebody.Maybe he choose these girls by randome. Or maybe he didn't likes they hair or shoes. How know? Or maybe he decide when one of these girls insulted him.
i think its because Laurie showed up at the Myers house to drop off the key and Michael saw her there, that mustve kinda just piqued Michaels interest i suppose and the other girls were picked simply because they were close to Laurie who seemed to be Michaels main target
@@endy7432 Good point. Probably its most important reason. It,s one frome slasher rights if you broke rules/taboo because you want show like brave and independent you are you will be punishment. So Laurie fated his mates.
This is my favorite horror movie of all time. However, one goof in my opinion stands out more then all of these. Michael is oviously incredibly strong. When Laurie is hiding in the closet , why didn't Michael rip that closet off the hinges. I could have pull that thing off the track.
Pretty sure the worst one was it was fall and all u see is green grass and no leafs on the ground . Lol some scenes u do tho. Apparently they used like one bag of leafs
I don't know about dumb, but disturbing certainly. Bob & Linda getting out of the van Bob suggests in addition to ripping their own clothes off for sex, they RIP Lindsey's clothes off too. Lindsey's like 8 years old.
How do we know the crime was never reported? It doesn't need to be fleshed out because it is not vital to the story that was told in the movie. And the 3 girls walking home from school and their age type is something that was a common practice in films during that time period that got even worse as the years went on. It never once bothered me about their age. But we gotta have that snappy daily content i know 😊
I know, just look at Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and Nightmare on Elm Street. All of those films had actors in their twenties playing teenagers.
Looper not having a clue about things yet again. The match book isn’t random. Loomis has worked with Micheal from him being a young child, he knows everything about him, inside and out. When he saw the abandoned car, he found Michaels whites from the hospital, he’s put 2 and 2 together as the car is abandoned with the door open, it’s obvious what Michal has done. Can you not look into the films that you are making content about, just makes you guys look daft to be honest.
This might be awkward...the scene were Linda and her boyfriend were ...er..in the bedroom...Bob rolls off of Linda and you can see the blanket was between their two bodies.
The fact that he wasn't dead, and u still think it was dumb they didn't check his pulse. And if u stab someone in the neck, and again in a random spot and he gets back up twice as if nothing happened, r u really gonna stick around or get the fuck outta dodge! Lolz
It seems as though this channel is basing the nitpicking of the film on his own personal opinions and odd and untrue observations. The so called "flaws" in this movie are pretty much all in his own mind.🔪🎃
Congrats on your list for the sake of a list. Other than the timing of the mask theft, everything you said was either stupid, inaccurate, or has already been pointed out for 4 decades.
Have you ever seen the “The Original” ? I mean , before the name of the movie was HALLOWEEN?? Please, look it up.. a lil research never hurts, and it will answer questions put forth here. Good day.
it definitely seems as though it's all over the place at times, but when you learn how to differentiate the timelines, it makes much more sense and is easier to understand. the best part is, there's so many that you can just choose which one you like best. though, we all know most of the older ones are pretty much total trash ngl.
Despite all that, Halloween is pretty amazing, right?
Definitely
we don't know when the robbery of the store happen, just the alarm went off.we don't know id the owner trip the alarm, to get police there. its halloween .
Matchbox was from the nurse car, that one was ok, how he learned to drive or know to get to his home is the real mistery
Looper no.

Strangely enough, Curtis looks the OLDEST to me.

Yeah, I am just looking at this saying what? I couldn't tell there was any age difference.
Apparently Michael didn't need driving lessons either.
Rob K. That's no huge thing and they actually mention it in the movie

This list is really stupid.
07foxmulder they said he never contacted the police regarding the the truck accident which showed the dead body. Had he done that the cops would’ve cooperated easily
The list is right
Alex Fuentes The hospital contacted the police as soon as Myers escaped. Loomis and Dr. Wynn talk about this.
The age thing is nothing new. They do that all the time. They will have a woman play the mother to an actress that she is only 10 years older than.
christi crenshaw I've seen a movie where a parent is younger than their kid in high school 😂
Or Shirley Henderson playing a teen when she was in her 40s.
Sean Connery is only 11 years older than Harrison Ford, and they played father and son in The Last Crusade.
The “stray” matchbook is the same matchbook that Marion used to light her match in the car while Loomis was riding with her and he clearly looks at it when she uses it.
Exactly
Random matchbook and abandoned car is some how enough proof Micheal had been there.

C L A S S I C ! ! P.S. I also enjoy watching Freddy fall over the banister in front of Nancy's room onto a mattress placed on the stairs in Elm St. 1!! :)) I SO enjoy catching stuff like that in movies.
The only one that counts is the hardware store one.
The matchbook was in the station wagon in the beginning with the nurse
This video really was a reach.
How far do they travel in car to babysit ?
It is now dark , so quite some journey right ?
Michael's house as a child is just over the road from where the babysitters are babysitting, because the stolen Dr Loomis car that Michael drives is parked up just across the road, so isn't this walking distance ?
Also...how can a 5 or 6 yr old repeatedly stab his much older sister.Judith she could have kicked the crap out him after the first stab.thus maybe not dying.......but guess hiding the boobs was priority lol.....also when the Meyers come home and see Micheal with a bloody knife...you think they would rush inside to see who got knifed...nope they stand there and stare at him for a long time.kinda dumb....but still luv the movie hahahaha
This is my boyfriends favorite movie series. He showed this to me for the first time recently. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a classic movie that was absolute crap.
Boring - the first 2/3 are just a creepy guy watching her.
Stupidity - as you say, the girl gives the guy every opportunity to kill her and he does not succeed by only dumb luck.
But seriously, if you look at each scene where she is getting attacked, every single one she sees where he’s coming from or is, purposefully turns her back to him, drops the knife repeatedly, even dropping it RIGHT next to his hand in the last scene. She even just cowers stupidly with her back to him in the hallway when she obviously knows he’s getting up and about to kill her.
Even for older movies, this stands out to me as very poor writing. No one would be like this. The only explanation is she is suicidal and happy to let the kids she’s babysitting die along with her.
Overall plain infuriating to watch and just way too many bad decisions. Common for horror movies I know, but come on this is in its own category it’s so bad.
1/10 would not recommend. Don’t let “classics” get away with poor writing because everyone else likes them. I’ll have to keep watching these movies for my boyfriends sake and in exchange he’ll sit through the ghibli movies for me (he hates anime)
This list is absolutely rubbish.
1. A vast majority of films and tv shows have always had 20+ year olds play teenagers. That’s not even a glaring issue. Also Jamie Lee didn’t look that much younger than pj and Nancy. It wasn’t a glaringly obvious issue or “distracting” at all.
2. This one is the absolute worst. You say he brings his concerns to the “police” but is brushed off, then you show him talking to Dr Wynn at Smiths Grove Sanatorium...
“Somehow surmises that the abandoned car and stray matchbook are solid proof Micheal was there” Ummm gee maybe also the hospital gown that you failed to mention but even showed Loomis finding it in the clip, also the “stray matchbook” is the exact same as the one Nurse Marion was using in the car that was stolen by Micheal. Also he was just on the phone with the police, and warned them that Micheal was coming to Haddonfield, just finding evidence Micheal was there isn’t enough to call the police again since once again Loomis knows where Micheal is headed and knows they still won’t believe them.
3. Loomis doesn’t want to create a panic in Haddonfield, and so far Brackett is just entertaining Loomis but hasn’t seen enough evidence to believe Micheal is even in Haddonfield besides a dead dog at the Myers house, so definitely not enough to warrant a manhunt for a person in an area 250 miles away from where he was last seen.
4. This is the only fair one. But also it’s just implied it was Micheal that busted in and stole the stuff, but it’s never stated specifically that it was him. Now I have no doubt in my mind it was intended to have been Micheal that broke in and they just kinda fudged up the timeline a little, but again, it’s not that big of a deal and not that noticeable until it’s pointed out.
4. Laurie is in shock. She just found her friends murdered and was almost just murdered herself. The first “didn’t know he was still alive” is completely acceptable. The second, well again she’s in shock and had just stabbed this man in the neck, jabbed an eye and stabbed him with a kitchen knife in the sternum and he laid on the ground not moving even as she walked passed him. Again perfectly acceptable for her to think that know he’s dead or at least unconscious due to the severity of the injuries she’s inflicted. “Her and Loomis decide to have a conversation” are you kidding me? Laurie is absolutely shook to her core and just witnessed Micheal get shot 6 times at close range and fall 20 feet. Any normal human being would be dead at that point. And all she does is ask a single question. And Loomis was rightfully answering and seeing if she was ok, before looking to where Micheals dead body should’ve been. Even if they decided to go make sure he was dead. They still would’ve had to walk down the stairs and he would’ve been gone by the time they got there
5. A majority of these are unnoticeable and PJ stumbling over the camera track just added more to the scene because she had been drinking at that point.
Whoever wrote the script for this, obviously has only seen the movie once and googled “mistakes from Halloween” to make this video.
LOL Loomis actually starts a lynch mob in the 4th, but in this he doesn't want to
Michael had massacred the police station in 4 hence to Loomis saying “you haven’t got a police force!”
Ive been harping that mask robbery time frame for years and have been called an idiot by detractors, including my wife, who say "No, Michael wasn't the robber that's just coincidental" but if that's true: why steal a mask, knives and rope? Plus, as Loomis is talking to sheriff brackett in front of the store, Michael just drives by unnoticed, clearly being at the scene still
The matchbook in the truck wasn't random. It was the matches the nurse had in the car when Loomis and her were parked at the hospital . So its showing Michaek stole the nurses matches while he was escaping in her car at hospital.
Loomis knew it was Michael who took the truck then.
It always frustrates me that it took her so long to break the glass door in the kitchen to escape. She spends what feels like an entire minute trying to twist a locked door knob on a glass door, then when he's five steps away she finally breaks the glass.
So....what about the fact that Lorrie & Annie were smoking a fat doobie in the car with the windows up and Sheriff Bracket miraculously didn't notice the smell
Cuz they aired it out dumbass. Plus, who said he didn't smell it? Even Laurie suggests he smelled it.
imagine back then smoking some weed paranoid and you high as hell and Michael appears out of the bushes on u just staring at u. You will be beyond scared.
The lack of blood is what bothers me.
I'm sorry, but other than the store bit, this list made no sense.
He found the hospital gown on the truck thats how he knew, no six sense
Female age didn't never bother me I knew they was at least 22 but it doesn't make me look at it any different
I don't know if I agree with everything. I knew the actresses where in their 20's but they looked young enough and did well that I didn't realize they were nearly 30 years old.
And while Loomis wasn't seen reporting every or any particular incident I would say for a movie it wasn't necessary to go into that much detail. Missing clues things going unreported for whatever reason are realistic things.
Not to say these things are being complained about but generally speaking some nitpick movies looking for them to be perfect but life isn't perfect. And that's what makes these fictional stories even somewhat realistic as they aren't polished to perfection as to what should happen in any given situation. If I had a dollar for everything I've seen that people should do in a situation and don't I'd be rich lol.
PJ Soles was 29?
Wtf
This was a reply to someone else, but I feel it needs to be its own comment.
He very well could’ve robbed the hardware store earlier in the day. Up until the 2000s, there were still fire alarms that weren’t on a network and just made noise as a deterrent.
Meaning that it could’ve been hours before anyone heard the alarm to call the police.
The age thing never bodered me
I never even noticed the age difference is new to me. LoL
When he falls out of the second story, that looks so stupid.
Can anyone tell me where the puff of smoke is please?
5:56-5:57
Check the top of the bush. It takes a couple times to see it.
You can also see a local citizen stand up on the porch looking over the hedge as the two girls walk away from the puff of smoke scene. If you forget about Halloween 2, you do have to ask why Michael decided to pick Laurie and the girls to stalk.
He just must picked somebody.Maybe he choose these girls by randome. Or maybe he didn't likes they hair or shoes. How know? Or maybe he decide when one of these girls insulted him.
i think its because Laurie showed up at the Myers house to drop off the key and Michael saw her there, that mustve kinda just piqued Michaels interest i suppose and the other girls were picked simply because they were close to Laurie who seemed to be Michaels main target
@@endy7432 Good point. Probably its most important reason. It,s one frome slasher rights if you broke rules/taboo because you want show like brave and independent you are you will be punishment. So Laurie fated his mates.
Most horrible are dumb and not worth watching. I use to love the horror genre but as I've gotten older I realize how pathetic these movies are.
This is my favorite horror movie of all time. However, one goof in my opinion stands out more then all of these. Michael is oviously incredibly strong. When Laurie is hiding in the closet , why didn't Michael rip that closet off the hinges. I could have pull that thing off the track.
I think that Michael stole the mask, but the store owner or worker could've got there later in the day and called the police
Pretty sure the worst one was it was fall and all u see is green grass and no leafs on the ground . Lol some scenes u do tho. Apparently they used like one bag of leafs
I don't know about dumb, but disturbing certainly. Bob & Linda getting out of the van Bob suggests in addition to ripping their own clothes off for sex, they RIP Lindsey's clothes off too. Lindsey's like 8 years old.
How do we know the crime was never reported? It doesn't need to be fleshed out because it is not vital to the story that was told in the movie.
And the 3 girls walking home from school and their age type is something that was a common practice in films during that time period that got even worse as the years went on. It never once bothered me about their age.
But we gotta have that snappy daily content i know 😊
I know, just look at Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and Nightmare on Elm Street. All of those films had actors in their twenties playing teenagers.
Looper not having a clue about things yet again. The match book isn’t random. Loomis has worked with Micheal from him being a young child, he knows everything about him, inside and out. When he saw the abandoned car, he found Michaels whites from the hospital, he’s put 2 and 2 together as the car is abandoned with the door open, it’s obvious what Michal has done. Can you not look into the films that you are making content about, just makes you guys look daft to be honest.
Interesting
Didn’t see any smoke on screen for the hedge scene
99.9% of movies have problems like these!!! Really? This is stupid even for looper's standards...
So is looper saying they would rather them have real high school kids getting nude? Maybe looper needs to recheck themselves
They still do that today have people in there 20s. Play teens in movies
This might be awkward...the scene were Linda and her boyfriend were ...er..in the bedroom...Bob rolls off of Linda and you can see the blanket was between their two bodies.
The fact that he wasn't dead, and u still think it was dumb they didn't check his pulse. And if u stab someone in the neck, and again in a random spot and he gets back up twice as if nothing happened, r u really gonna stick around or get the fuck outta dodge! Lolz
Music to all the videos?
Every movie has flaws, and they all look the same age lol
This is so stupid, half of these are completely wrong and were explained within the movie.
How did Michael even get a License? He obviously can’t use his peripherals under that mask🔥
I the Anomaly That just made my day😂
Yay flawed movie logic!
It’s was the 70s what in the fuck do you expect ?
It seems as though this channel is basing the nitpicking of the film on his own personal opinions and odd and untrue observations. The so called "flaws" in this movie are pretty much all in his own mind.🔪🎃
Congrats on your list for the sake of a list. Other than the timing of the mask theft, everything you said was either stupid, inaccurate, or has already been pointed out for 4 decades.
Have you ever seen the “The Original” ? I mean , before the name of the movie was HALLOWEEN?? Please, look it up.. a lil research never hurts, and it will answer questions put forth here. Good day.
SMH did you people even watch the movie?
This list was poorly done.
The whole series is a complete mess.
it definitely seems as though it's all over the place at times, but when you learn how to differentiate the timelines, it makes much more sense and is easier to understand. the best part is, there's so many that you can just choose which one you like best. though, we all know most of the older ones are pretty much total trash ngl.
I don't see any mistakes..just some Brit knit picking
It was the nurses matchbook and he went to the police you are awful
Zero mention of how Bob was talking about taking Lindsey's clothes off. Ya know, the 10 year old girl Annie was babysitting.
Cuz that isn't dumb, it's A brilliant joke.
You missed quite a bit
