For 40 years, his mask was kept as archival evidence, eventually making its way to an attorney general's office until the day it came into the hands of journalist Aaron Korey, who, along with his colleague, Dana Haines, was making a podcast about Michael Myers. Upon Michael's escape from custody while en route to a new facility, he managed to meet up with Korey at a gas station, where he retrieved the mask he had not worn in four decades, and went on his second murder spree. After a six-year hiatus, the Halloween franchise would return with a mask that’s a little better than the one in the previous two installments. This one has scruffy hair and a blank expression, but that expression doesn’t exude pure unreasonable malice; instead, it’s a puppy-dog innocence that looks like Michael Myers is having trouble with a trivia question at all times. The confusion makes sense, though — at this point in the franchise, the Halloween lore had spiraled out of control, losing the original intent of faceless, unexplainable evil and instead having Myers transform into an incestuous bull stud for a Celtic-themed doomsday cult. Halloween H20 (1998): The Mixed Bag Image: Dimension Films Halloween (2018) is a direct sequel to the original Halloween (1978) thus the mask in this film is meant to be the very same one from the first. In this timeline, Michael was recaptured shortly following the events of the original. In reinventing Michael Myers during the horror remake arms race of the mid-aughts, director Rob Zombie layers his Myers mask with dirt and blemishes. It’s the result of having been left under some floorboards for 15 years, and it doesn’t look so bad — at the very least, it appears to be the product of an actual artist and not a frantic dash to a Spirit Halloween. We get to see a close replica of the original, too, in the film’s first act — a brief nod to fans of the series before Zombie goes and does whatever he wants with it.

Michael awakens from a ten-year coma covered in gauze bandages from Ridgemont Federal Sanitarium. As soon as he reaches Haddonfield, Illinois, he goes to Vincent Drug Store where he steals another "Shape" mask. Take your Halloween look to the next level this year with the Michael Myers 1978 costume, available exclusively at Horrifiq ! Stand Out and Turn Heads with the Michael Myers 1978 Mask The Stan Winston mask is the one seen for the majority of the film, replacing the KNB mask. Though praised for looking more similar to the original, it was still mostly panned since Michael's eyes are plainly visible, and for the hair appearing frizzy.

Halloween: Resurrection establishes that Michael put his clothes and mask on a paramedic who was mistakenly beheaded by Laurie at the end of H20. Since Michael left said mask behind, it is again assumed that he stole a new one from another store. You can easily see through the eye holes and comfortably breathe through the nostrils. If you’d like to make the mouth or eye holes a little bigger, simply use a scissor. This will not compromise the overall look of the mask. Halloween H20 is a direct sequel to Halloween II (1981) in which the original mask was destroyed in the fire at Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. The film does not explain how Michael obtained a new mask, but it is assumed that he stole it from another store.The Curse mask received a much better reaction, with praise for how similar it looked to the original one.

The romantic ideal of the Michael Myers mask, the original works so well mainly because the director of the film, John Carpenter, is so adept at knowing where shadows are supposed to be. The cheekbones provide a little underline in dark close-ups so it doesn’t look like Myers is wearing a mayonnaise container on his head, and very rarely do you see Michael’s actual eyes, lending him that inhuman quality of “The Shape.” Combine that with the slight tussle in his hair and you have a grade-A maniac mask, one that totally alienates the audience from any sort of human connection or empathy. Halloween II (1981): The Dye Job Image: Universal Pictures We are thrilled to present the official Michael Myers 1978 face mask, a perfect replica of the iconic mask worn by the famous movie serial killer. With its white and expressionless appearance, the Halloween Michael Myers mask has been one of the most popular Halloween masks since the release of the original Halloween 1978 movie. Returning the franchise to its roots, ignoring the past four sequels, and reintroducing Jamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode character to the series definitely made for a sleeker experience. If only the mask could keep up. There are multiple masks used throughout H20, including CGI ones. But if we had to grade it on the main Myers mask, the one that appears during the iconic scene where a horrified Laurie gets face-to-face with Michael through a tiny window, the results are pretty uneven. The mask detail is there, but without Carpenter’s shadows (being able to see his wide eyes so clearly all the time does no favors for Michael’s mystique) and with an onion-tuft of hair, there’s little in the way of results.

Michael Myers first acquired the white mask in 1978's Halloween after he escaped from Smith's Grove Sanitarium. He stole a few items from the local hardware store including a Halloween mask. This white mask became the face of the franchise. Michael wore a version of the original mask for all installments of the franchise, except for Halloween III: Season of the Witch, which didn't feature the crazed killer. Minor adjustments to the mask were made as time went on but the pale, humorless visage was always the main goal. For all horror fans, there’s no denying that the perfect Halloween appearance as Michael Myers is the ultimate choice. Unleash your inner horror fanatic with our Halloween Michael Myers mask! This official Michael mask and costume will make you the center of attention at any Halloween party. The H20 mask was ultimately disliked by audiences, due in no small part to the fact that four masks were used in production: the Buechler mask, the KNB mask, the Stan Winston mask, and the CGI mask.
