Halloween the Movie Trivia

1. In the original 1978 film 'Halloween', what was Judith Myers doing right before her younger brother Michael murdered her?

From Quiz The Night He Came Home

Answer: Brushing her hair

Michael was six years old when he murdered his sister Judith by stabbing her to death on Halloween night. She was in her room sitting in front of her vanity mirror brushing her hair. Her boyfriend had just left the house. When their parents got home, they found Michael outside with his clown costume on and a bloody knife in his hand. They took off his clown mask and stared at him in what looked like confusion while he just stared straight ahead with a blank look on his face. That's pretty much in my opinion part of what made this film such a creepy classic...the story, as well as the character of Michael, was very mysterious! There's no real explanation as to why Michael became a killer...except that he's a psychopath!

From Quiz Do You Know Michael Myers?

Answer: Judith Myers

After Judith's boyfriend left, young Michael went into the kitchen and grabbed a butcher knife out of the kitchen drawer. He went upstairs to Judith's room and pulled on his clown mask. As he entered her room, Judith began admonishing him for being there, as she was not clothed. Michael then began stabbing her repeatedly. After that, Michael calmly went downstairs and out into the front yard. He still had his mask on, and was holding the bloody knife. His blank expression was chilling. From the aspect of the film, there was no clear motive behind young Michael's actions that evening. Michael's psychiatrist, Dr. Sam Loomis, believed that Michael could not discern good from evil, right from wrong. That was what made Michael so creepy in this one. We were left to wonder what clicked in his brain to make him him commit that awful crime at such a young age.

From Quiz Who Played Michael Myers in "Halloween" Series

Answer: William Shatner

A William Shatner "Star Trek" Captain Kirk mask was purchased from an area costume shop. It was spray painted with white paint, eye holes were cut larger and they messed around with the hair. The end result was the mask that many have to come to know as Michael Myers. It wasn't until years later that William Shatner was asked in an interview what he thought about his face being used in the movie. William replied that he wasn't aware of the mask using his facial features, but thought it was very cool and joked around about it.

Answer: whole wheat

Annie was cooking egg whites for breakfast. Her dad was getting ready to leave for work. She told her dad not to forget to pick up the pizza for dinner. Annie told him to get a whole wheat crust pizza. Sheriff Brackett made a comment that he might as well get the pizza made out of cardboard. Laurie told Sheriff Brackett not to put any meat on the pizza. Sheriff Brackett brought home a pizza with meat on one side and pineapple on the other. The family was sitting around the table enjoying a meal and talking. Laurie suddenly became ill and ran upstairs to the bathroom to vomit. She was sharing some kind of mental link with Michael. Michael was eating a dog at the time and this was what made Laurie ill.

From Quiz Halloween

Answer: We never find out why

This is sort of a trick question. Michael is trying to kill Laurie because she is his sister. But we don't find that out until "Halloween 2". In the original "Halloween" it is never once stated why Michael wants too kill Laurie Strode.

From Quiz Rob Zombie's "Halloween II" (2009)

Answer: Frankenstein

Big Lou was the owner of the dance club that Deborah Myers had worked at. In one scene, we saw Big Lou dressed in the mask handing out candy to kids. He was also on the news and promoting his club. Big Lou put on the mask and was going to make love to his girlfriend, Misty, when Michael burst in the room. Lou pulled out a gun from his desk drawer and attempted to scare Michael. Michael killed Big Lou and then killed Misty. I am not totally sure, but I believe this was revenge for Michael. The club advertised Deborah Myers as having worked there and being the mother of Michael. Michael also killed the bouncer of the club.

From Quiz "Halloween": The Night HE Came Home

Answer: 5

The first time is in the original, when Laurie sticks a knitting needle in his neck, then again when she stabbs him with his own knife in the closet, then at the end, Dr. Loomis shoots him down and he walks away. The next time is towards the end of part 2, after they blast him again, he proceeds to scalpel the first guy who checks his pulse. The last time is when Dr. Loomis blows him (and himself) up at the end, Michael starts walking while on fire. He only walks for a little bit, I know, but nevertheless, nobody expects him to get up and try to walk off the explosion.

From Quiz Do You Know Michael Myers?

Answer: She was scalded/drowned in the hospital's whirlpool.

This was a very graphic scene for the early 1980s, with great makeup effects. Karen and Budd decided to take a dip in the hospital's whirlpool. When the water temperature became uncomfortable, Karen asked Budd to adjust it, but Michael showed up behind Budd in the control room and strangled him with an electrical cord. Michael then came up behind Nurse Karen and put his hand on her shoulder. Karen, thinking it was Budd, began caressing his hand and telling him she had to get back to work. When she discovered that it was definitely not Budd, Michael pushed her head into the scorching hot water repeatedly, simultaneously scalding her face and drowning her.

From Quiz Who Played Michael Myers in "Halloween" Series

Answer: Tyler Mane

Tyler Mane was chosen by Rob Zombie himself in the remake of the horror franchise. Rob Zombie said when he was writing the movie script, he wanted the Michael Myers character to be more ruthless than ever before. And having a 6'8" Michael built like a freight train made the character more scary.
