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. 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. This Michael mask and costume includes everything you need to become one of the most brutal murderers this Halloween. Get ready for a genuine horror look with our official Michael Myers workwear, and of course, this frightening mask. The Curse mask received a much better reaction, with praise for how similar it looked to the original one.

Originally, the prop department had to locate the perfect mask for Michael Myers. Without putting too much thought into it, they chose a Captain Kirk mask based on actor William Shatner and painted it white. Interestingly, the mask had actually been made from a cast of William Shatner’s face that was used in another horror film – The Devil’s Rain from 1975. As such, it seems that Shatner’s face was always destined to become an iconic piece of the horror genre.

Halloween Ends, which takes place four years after Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills, features the same mask from the preceding films, but it is now covered in mold and mildew. 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. Looking to other Michael Myers face masks and costumes ?

However, not all of the masks are built equally. As the Halloween series progressed, various redesigns would cause a Rise and Fall and Rise of sorts, and if you’re the kind of person who deeply cares (the right kind of person) you’ll notice each one gives Michael a distinctly different vibe. Halloween (1978): The Classic Image: Compass International Pictures The CGI Mask appears in the scene where Charlie encounters Michael, which could not be reshot with the Stan Winston mask. It is widely regarded as the worst mask of the entire series. 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.

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: 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. At the end of the film, after Michael is burned, he is shown still wearing the charred remains of the mask.

The Resurrection mask is often regarded as one of the best sequel masks along with Curse, save for some criticism that its sharply defined features resemble makeup. 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. Halloween Resurrection (2002): The EVIL One Image: Dimension Films The Halloween franchise is perhaps best remembered for its most recurring villain – The Shape, aka Michael Myers. The character is normally portrayed as the epitome of evil, and one of the best ways of getting that concept across to the audience is with his iconic mask. As fans of the franchise likely already know, Michael Myers first dons the iconic white mask in the original 1978 Halloween. Once he appeared on screen in his proper full attire, a cinematic icon was born. But where exactly did the mask come from?
