HALLOWEEN (1998)

On Halloween night in 1983, Michael Myers, aged 6, murders his older sister Judith with a chef's knife in their home in Lakewood, Ohio. Michael is subsequently sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium under the care of Dr. Samuel Loomis. Fifteen years later, on October 30th, 1998, Michael, now 21, manages to escape, stealing a car in the process. Michael returns to Lakewood, killing a mechanic for some coveralls, as well as donning a pale white mask and stealing some knives from a hardware store.

Meanwhile, Dean Ambrose and his friend Renee Young are walking to school. They stop to take a look at Michael's now-abandoned home, unaware of Michael's presence inside. Throughout the day, Michael begins stalking Ambrose, to which he notices, only believing it to be some sort of Halloween prank. Shortly after, Loomis arrives in Lakewood, meeting Deputy Frank Hawkins. They arrive at Michael's abandoned home, where Loomis warns the deputy about the danger that has come to Lakewood. Hawkins leaves to patrol the streets, while Loomis remains, expecting Michael to return home eventually.

The following night, on Halloween, Ambrose invites some friends over, occasionally handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. Michael, having killed a young couple next door, sneaks in, watching as the group plays a game of truth or dare. During the game, Young's feelings for Ambrose are revealed, causing the pair to leave the game. Curt Hawkins, the deputy's son, and his girlfriend Chelsea Green are left behind. Hawkins goes into the kitchen, being attacked and killed by Michael, who pins him to the pantry door. Michael approaches Green, who mistakes him for Hawkins in costume. Michael strangles Green before slitting her throat, killing her.

Unaware of the carnage that has taken place, Ambrose reveals his feelings for Young, as they share a kiss, beginning a relationship. Assuming that Hawkins and Green left earlier than anticipated, they sit down on the couch to watch some movies. Ambrose goes into the kitchen, discovering the bodies of Hawkins and Green in the pantry. Ambrose spots Michael on the verge of attacking Young. Ambrose smashes a chair over Michael's back, stunning him long enough for Young to flee. Michael overpowers Ambrose, severely wounding him in the process.

Young retreats into an upstairs bedroom, hiding in a closet. Michael eventually finds her, smashing through the wooden sliding doors of the closet. During the struggle, Michael drops his knife, allowing Young to stab him in the chest twice. Young finds an injured Ambrose, who pleads for her to leave, wanting to protect her. Young reluctantly agrees, tearfully kissing Ambrose goodbye.

Ambrose approaches Michael, finding him still incapacitated. Relieved, Ambrose takes a moment to catch his breath, unaware of Michael rising from behind him. Loomis spots a bloodied Young fleeing from Ambrose's house, going to investigate. Finding Michael and Ambrose fighting upstairs, Loomis shoots Michael six times in the chest, knocking him off of a nearby balcony. Loomis goes to check on Michael, finding him missing. Completely unsurprised, Loomis stares off into the night, as paramedics arrive to tend to Ambrose.

HALLOWEEN KILLS (2018)

Twenty years after his initial rampage, Michael Myers, who was captured shortly after being shot by Loomis, is being prepared for transfer to a new facility. Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae, a pair of true-crime podcasters, arrive at Smith's Grove Sanitarium to possibly interview Michael. They meet Michael's psychiatrist Dr. Ranbir Sartain, Loomis' replacement following the latter's retirement. Sartain informs the pair that Michael can indeed speak, but he just chooses not to. Gargano brings out the mask that Michael wore in 1998, hoping to get a reaction out of him, ultimately failing.

Meanwhile, Dean Ambrose and Renee Young, the sole survivors of Michael's rampage twenty years prior, are now married, with a 16-year old son named Johnathan. Ambrose and Young have prepared for Michael's potential return through extensive combat training. Their paranoia has created a rather strained relationship with their son, who blames them for taking away his childhood. Johnathan believes Michael to be only a legend, a myth even.

That same night, Michael's transfer goes awry, allowing him to escape. Michael kills a nearby father and son for their car, returning to Lakewood. Michael spots Gargano and LeRae visiting his sister's grave, following them to a gas station. Michael kills a mechanic for some new coveralls, as well as killing both Gargano and LeRae, recovering his mask in the process.

Meanwhile, Loomis, as well as Ambrose and Young, learn of Michael's escape through a newscast on TV. Deputy Frank Hawkins, the one responsible for capturing Michael in 1998, reports to the gas station, discovering the crime scene. Sartain, who was injured in the crash, eventually joins Hawkins in their pursuit of Michael. Johnathan, desperate for some time away, sneaks out of the house, going to a school-sponsored Halloween dance with his best friend Tony Nese.

Now Halloween night, Michael begins roaming the streets of Lakewood, killing two residents in their homes, as well as a babysitter and her boyfriend. As word of Michael's return reaches the press, everyone is ordered to stay inside and lock windows and doors. The dance is evacuated as well. With Johnathan and Tony now roaming the streets, they attempt to take a short cut. Johnathan manages to be successful, while Tony is not so lucky. Michael appears, killing Tony by impaling him using the fence. Johnathan returns to help his friend, coming face to face with Michael for the very first time. Johnathan retreats, finding refuge at a nearby resident's house.

After picking up Johnathan, Hawkins and Sartain spot Michael, running him down. Loomis, having been nearby, wanting to meet with Hawkins, watches as Sartain betrays Hawkins, stabbing the latter in the chest with Michael's knife, killing him. Loomis arrives at Ambrose and Young's house to inform them of the treachery. Along the way, Michael kills Sartain, allowing Johnathan to escape the car, retreating into the woods nearby. Michael kills a pair of police officers nearby.

Michael arrives at Ambrose and Young's house shortly after, nearly killing Ambrose through the windows of the front door. With Ambrose, Young, and Loomis safely secure in their secret basement. Michael ultimately enters the house. Ambrose leaves, wanting to finish what was started twenty years prior, with Loomis soon following.

Ambrose encounters Michael in an upstairs storage room, throwing Ambrose off of his own balcony. Loomis appears, stabbing Michael three times in the chest. Michael ultimately overpowers Loomis, killing the latter by stabbing him in the chest. Michael, having found the entrance to the secret basement, destroys it, exposing Young in the process.

Michael goes to check on Ambrose, which is when Johnathan arrives, distracting Michael long enough, as when he looks back, Ambrose is missing. Young, having been hiding in a downstairs closet, brings Johnathan into the basement. Michael returns, being shot in the shoulder by a determined Young. Ambrose appears, attacking Michael. The trio is able to trap Michael in the basement, setting it, as well as the entire house ablaze in the process. The trio leaves the house, getting some help in the form of a passing pick-up truck. A final shot of the burning basement is shown, with Michael nowhere to be seen, indicating that he survived.
