To this day, the 1st 2 Halloween films are my favorite of all time.
My rankings would be:
H1 H2 H4 H3 H5 H20 H6 H8
I always thought of the first two as perfect films. There isn't one thing I don't like about them.
Your thoughts on the series?

I too always loved the first two. I wish they would make a special Halloween movie with 1 and 2 combined into one whole movie with all the added TV scenes included too. That would definitely be worth the three hours time watching it.

I agree with you, Brandon. Merging H1 and H2 into one film would be truly awesome! ;D
I always thought that H3 was underrated. Like i've said in the past, if they just called it Season of the Witch, and left the Halloween moniker out, it would have found it's audience back then. It's a shame, because it is a good film.
H4 is also really good. They showed that on AMC recently. I'm without any DVD's right now, so I had to watch it on TV. H4 is actually watchable on network TV. Other than the few curse words, everything was pretty intact.

1 and 2 are untouchable. 2 of my favourite films EVER.
I'm not a big fan of the rest of the sequels. 4 is ok I guess.

I've gotten to the point now where I like BOTH H1 and H2 equally.
But after H4, I don't really like any of them.
Does any you guys have the soundtracks? I have the soundtrack for the original Halloween. Are the others out of print?

I've never really liked H4 - H6 with the whole Man in Black and Thorn thing going on. Some of the kills in H6 were just not the kind of Myers kills he would do. Michael is the use a knife or my hands killer not stick someone's head through a spike, or chop someone up on farm machinery, or electricute someone till they explode killer.
I was interested with The Man In Black character in H5 until they ruined it in H6 by revealing the Man in Black to be Dr. Wynn, that I thought sucked.

I never liked the whole Man in Black/Thorn aspect either, Brandon. I thought it was a bit too much. I hated the fact that they felt they HAD to explain Michael's motives. They were saying he was being controlled by Thorn. But I always thought of Michael as being a motive-less killer.....to me, that's alot scarier than being controlled by some cult.
H4, IMO, is the last great Halloween movie.
I used to like H5 ALOT more when I was a kid. But when I started getting older, I starting disliking it more and more. I can barely watch it now. Same thing with 6.

I also enjoyed H20 it was great to see Jamie Lee Curtis back in what should have been the ending.

Like in all other cases with me, the original is what I like the best. I do like the first six movies a lot though. Many people feel that Michael is de-mystified by the thorn story, but I think it mystifies him even more, because it means he is a part of something much larger then even mankind. He is a part of a force of ultimate evil.
