I met him, fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this 6 year-old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and the blackest eyes; the devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply… evil.

We didn't need all that backstory on screen during the Zombie remake as you say. Monsters are scarier in the dark, when they have an unknown quality. Michael Myers, Darth Vader, Hannibal Lechter, and the Alien xenomorph were all scarier without the expanded backstories of later films. This 1 minute (at most) speech makes Michael more terrifying than Zombie's 40 minute boring exposition.

If the others fumbled with the ball in trying to do this, the remake completely dropped it within the first nanosecond. I don't know why new horror movies try to make us see the villain as a "person of circumstance". What happened to the Evil person being evil just because they wanted to? That they love to cause evil? It reminds me of a scene from a movie I had scene years back. The title eludes me, and I know it wasn't new, it was old. There was a woman talking to the heros, while looking at the monster, literally being Infront of it. She was spouting off how, "it was misunderstood" or "it's like this because of this/that" and the monster just hauls off and decapitates her before running after the heros who turn tail.

And this scene alone makes Michael Myers much scarier character in the original version than in 2007 remake. In Rob Zombie version Myers was simply a neglected and abused child who holds a grudge against the whole world based on his treatment as a child. In the original version Myers didn't need any excuses to do things he did. And while it might sound lazy to write the villain as pure evil, it really works in the original Halloween. He is scary and he kills because he wants to, not because he needs to only because he is a angst-ridden character with a cliched exposition, like in the Halloween remake.

This film plays a lot with shadows and darkness and it allows the viewer to fill whatever scary thing that could be in it. Seeing that Michael could literally be anywhere in that darkness confirms that fear

R.I.P Donald Plesence

Essentially, Michael Myers is the modern day Grim Reaper on every October. Walks in dark clothes with a pale eyeless face, carrying a elongated blade to kill innocents. Always becoming the shadows as the shape. Jason kills for vengeance and Freddy kills for pleasure but Michael (at least in the original.) kills for no reason and that's what's makes Michael scary, he's just this thing that appears for no reason without any signs whatsoever like Death coming to it's prey. And it's certainly scarier when we don't know who he is or why he can't die. Not knowing how a monster is made is scarier than knowing.

Soma Julius Cruz brought me here. 😂😂

Came here after watching the official Halloween kills trailer just to rejoice and wish Dr. Loomis was still alive to be in Halloween kills to make it even more bad ass.

The way he delivers this is amazingly creepy but satisfying all in one. I love this whole speech, Loomis knew and warned but no one listened but they try to blame him instead. 0:18 is favorite part, the way he stops looks up and while looking the short but somewhat timidly scared gasp or sigh he gives us is a bone chiller to see this 6 year old child who would grow to be this. I'm only 21 but what makes me unique is that I go deeper into context and clues. I'm only 21 and I gotta say John Carpenter thank you without you there's no Jason or Freddy. But Halloween is the greatest. Michael Myers has a whole different fear he displays, Freddy is too playful and Jason is just to OP to me, not at all scary suspenseful but not scary

Easily the most chilling scene in the movie. It set the mood of the film perfectly.

Now THIS is real acting!!!

Catching the imagination of the viewer. That's what it was all about ! I alway though Michael wasn't about the physical being but rather his soul. And the way Loomis describe the young boy... gosh, if we could see a soul, i alway imagine michael myer one as black as a destructive black hole...

This alone is what makes me a Halloween fan

This scene alone is horrifying

This little spiel by Loomis gives me chills, EVERYTIME! Michael is the epitome of evil! Loomis was always determined to find him, and to get him, dead or alive! I love his dialogue in Halloween IV, when he is talking to the sheriff, and his boisterous, frantic description of the gas station outside Haddonfield, where he said the place was in flames. Then, at the end, when Jamie was holding the knife after killing Darlene Carruthers, he was screaming in horror, saying "no!! no!! noo!!!! noooo!!!!", and almost shot her with his gun. Donald Pleasance was AWESOME as Sam Loomis!!! May he R.I.P.

This line alone is enough to make you like this movie

I would have loved to seen what went down if Michael came back while Loomis was there

Donald Pleasance=Legend.

"He's been here once tonite..I think he'll come back..I'm gonna wait for him". What ballz to wait for Micheal in the old Myers house Halloween night.. Loomis is a dogg
