Michael Myers is the face of the Halloween II continued the story right after the events in the first film and revealed that Michael and Laurie were actually siblings.
The third film in the franchise, Michael Myers – but there was a good reason why it took a different route far from the previous films.
Halloween 3, but the audience already linked the title of the film to the character, which is why it wasn’t well received. Halloween 3 had a witchcraft theme, where Dr. Dan Challis and Ellie Grimbridge’s investigation of a mysterious murder led them to Conal Cochran, the owner of the Silver Shamrock Novelties company, who was attempting to resurrect the ancient aspects of Samhain and planned to kill children through his Halloween masks and a TV ad.
Although he wasn’t part of Halloween 3, Halloween was deemed non-canon in the recent reboot of the franchise.
After a rough initial reception, Halloween 3 has become a cult-classic outside the Halloween/Michael Myers storyline. Carpenter and Hill’s anthology idea would have been interesting to watch, and while many other films have taken the “Halloween anthology” concept (such as Trick ‘r Treat and Tales of Halloween), a whole saga in this style could have been the home of many potentially memorable villains and stories, aside from Michael Myers and Laurie Strode.
