If you\u2019re like us here at JoBlo, at some point over the spooky month leading up to Halloween, you dipped into the classic Halloween franchise (check out our Halloween movie rankings <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/halloween-movies-ranked\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a>). There have been a baker\u2019s dozen of Halloween films, but of course, one must also acknowledge that this has been an inconsistent franchise, to say the least. John Carpenter\u2019s 1978 classic is one of the greatest slasher movies ever made and a horror masterpiece. But one of the things that made it so scary was just how evil Michael Myers was. We had no idea why he wanted to kill, and that made him all the more terrifying. Of course, Hollywood being Hollywood, when they decided to make this series into a franchise, they opted to make Michael Myers\u2019 Laurie Strode\u2019s brother. Carpenter himself even took part in revising Myers\u2019 origins when he shot additional scenes for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/halloween-once-got-a-strange-tv-cut-with-newly-shot-footage\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">movie\u2019s TV premiere in 1981<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that was all undone when David Gordon Green opted to make a legacy sequel, Halloween, which ignored all the previous films, except the first. But even then, its own sequels, particularly Halloween Ends, proved to be divisive. Yet, there are good sequels too, with many of us here at JoBlo having an exceptionally soft spot for Halloween III: Season of the Witch, which didn\u2019t feature Myers and told its own spooky Halloween story. And then, of course, there were the Rob Zombie Halloween movies, with the first a remake of Carpenter\u2019s original, which received a controversial sequel of its own.<\/p>\n<p>So, with all those Halloween movies available, we want to know which one is your favorite. We made this a \u201cfavourite sequel\/ remake\u201d list, as including the original Carpenter movie is too unfair to the other movies. So take the poll below and let us know which one is your fave!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Well, another Halloween is over and done with.
