Biography

Halloween

6-year-old Michael stabs his sister Judith to death on Halloween night, 1963 and he escapes 15 years later from Smith's Grove Sanitarium where he begins stalking a babysitter named Laurie Strode on Halloween and killing off her friends. Michael is ultimately stopped from killing Laurie by his psychiatrist, Dr. Samuel Loomis who shoots Michael six times off the house balcony though he escapes into the night.

Michael Myers (Nick Castle) — Michael Myers in *Halloween* (1978).

Halloween II

The film explains that Laurie and Michael are siblings and it's why he is stalking her. Picking up where Halloween ended, Michael finds Laurie at Haddonfield Memorial Hospital where he begins killing various staff members who stand in his way. In the end, Loomis blows himself and Michael up in a gas-filled room while Michael collapses in the hallway engulfed in flames.

Halloween III: Season of the Witch

Michael does not appear in this film as at the time, Michael was canonically dead at the end of Halloween II as John Carpenter wanted to move Halloween into being an anthology film series with this film taking on a more supernatural plot. However, due to the negative reception of Halloween III by fans, Michael was revived to appear in every film that followed.

Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers

Michael learns that he has a living niece named Jamie Lloyd and escapes from the ambulance he is in to find her while Loomis, who also survived the explosion, does what he can to protect Jamie. Michael is ultimately shot several times by police officers, where he falls through a mine shaft.

Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers

Michael survives but is comatose where a hermit takes care of him. Michael awakens a year later and begins to hunt down Jamie who seems to have a psychic connection to Michael. Michael is arrested after being knocked unconscious by Loomis but manages to escape after the police station is attacked by a mysterious man wearing black.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers

This film establishes the Curse of Thorn, explaining Michael's invulnerability and the reasoning for having to kill off his bloodline. Michael kills Jamie and goes into the pursuit of her child while Tommy Doyle, Kara Strode and Loomis attempt to protect the baby from Michael. After injecting Michael with drugs, Tommy beats Michael several times with a lead pipe. Michael manages to escape without his mask and presumably kills Loomis who is heard screaming off-screen.

Halloween H20

In this film, Michael finds Laurie's location after faking her death and relocating to California under a new name twenty years after his original killing spree. After another bloody killing spree, Laurie faces off against Michael and finally defeats him by decapitating him as he is pinned to a tree by the ambulance she was driving.

Halloween: Resurrection

Michael survived as revealed that he swapped places with a paramedic prior to the ending of H20, the paramedic being who Laurie really decapitated. Michael kills Laurie at a mental institution and heads back to his home where a bunch of college students participate in Dangertainment, an internet reality show taking place in the Myers home. Michael is left in the burning house after being knocked into cables by Freddie Harris and is later seen alive with his eyes open at the morgue at the end of the film.

Halloween (2018)

In this film, Michael has been incarcerated at Smith's Grove following his murder spree 40 years ago. During a transfer, however, Michael escapes during a bus crash and heads back to Haddonfield to begin his killing spree anew. The film ends with Laurie locking Michael inside of an inescapable basement trap that she sets on fire with a flare and leaves with her daughter Karen Strode and granddaughter Allyson for safety. Michael's fate is left unknown as his body is not shown and his breathing can be heard during the credits.

Halloween Kills

Michael survives the house fire and kills the firefighters then he goes back to killing Hattonfield residents. However the town is also trying to kill Michael Myers and use "Evil Dies Tonight" as their slogan. At a bar Macus and Vanessa see someone in their car and tell the rest of the bar to come outside and attack Michael. The person in the car speeds away and crashes the car. Later at a hospital, a man nammed Tivoli enters and people think that he is michael so they chase him. Tivoli tries to run away but when they break open the doors, he commits suicide. Karen goes to Michaels childhood house and stabs him in the back then she takes his mask and runs away to a street. Karen lores him into a trap were the towns people attack him. Michael kills them by stabbing and slicing them. As Karen looks out of Michael's window, Michael sneaks up behind her and kills her.

Halloween Ends

Following his latest killing spree, Michael spends the next four years living in the Haddonfield sewers. One day, he meets Corey Cunningham, who became an outcast in Haddonfield after accidentally killing a little boy he was babysitting. Michael begins strangling Corey, but stops for unknown reasons. The encounter leaves Corey fascinated, and, sick of being a pariah in his community, he is soon inspired to become a serial killer like Michael. The two kill a few people together, but Corey is driven to full-on insanity and steals Michael's mask one night so he can wear it as he kills several other people, including his own mother. He then visits Laurie Strode at her house and attempts to frame her for his own murder by stabbing himself in the neck, but Corey survives long enough for Michael to arrive at the house and kill him after taking back his mask.

Death

Screen Shot 2024-10-21 at 6.13.31 pm — Michael's body being shredded

A tense fight breaks out between Laurie and Michael in the kitchen, which eventually ends with Michael being pinned to the table and stabbed several times. Laurie then slits Michael's throat, and whilst Michael attempts to strangle Laurie to death, Allyson arrives and stops him by breaking his arm, after which Laurie slits Michael's wrist and he falls unconscious from blood loss. In order to ensure that Michael stays dead, however, Laurie and Allyson take Michael's body to the local junkyard as the rest of the town follows her in a midnight procession. As the residents of Haddonfield watch, Allyson turns on an industrial shredder, and Laurie tosses Michael's body into the machine, shredding his body to pieces and finally ending his reign of terror.

James gave his death the Golden Chainsaw because it was satisfying to watch after seeing Michael survive through so much.
