Halloween (2018)

[OneWayFilms]

For me, MY Halloween cannon films are Halloween (1978), Halloween 2 followed by this new Halloween (2018).

I don't feel the events in Halloween 2 take anything away from this film. The story line about Michel and Laurie being related in part 2 is explained in this film as simply a rumor. That works for me.

I can even handle seeing Michael burn at the end of part 2 and somehow, surviving and end up in prison for this last installment. If I can see Jason die at the end of every Friday the 13th and somehow accept his return in the next film, I can certainly accept that Michael somehow survived being burned in pt.2.

Perhaps the ONLY thing neglected about Halloween 2 is the body count because in the new Halloween, they only reference the body count from the first film. I can just go ahead and overlook that as a continuity blooper.

Seeing the terror that Laurie continues to experience at the hospital in Halloween 2, really helps to explain her 20+ years of trauma in this film. For me....it works.

However....all the OTHER Halloweens.....I have officially deleted from my reality. LOL. They simply don't exist in MY world of Michael Myers.
