This Pure Evil was Headlined on October 2020. |
NOTE: This a composite profile of Michael Myers involving his timeline counterparts that takes place after the first Halloween installment but have ignored continuity between each other. |
“ | I met him, fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this 6-year-old child with this blank, pale, emotionless face, and the blackest eyes; the devil's eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply… evil. | „ |
~ Dr. Samuel Loomis contemplating his former patient: Michael Myers. |
Michael Audrey Myers, also known as The Shape or The Boogeyman, is the main antagonist of John Carpenter's Halloween franchise.
A ruthless and mute serial killer, Michael's original intention in the first movie is that he tries to kill an innocent female teenager better known as Laurie Strode; however, Dr. Samuel Loomis describes Michael's psychology best in that he is a purely evil entity that needs to be stopped at all costs.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
In General[]
- Despite being mute and catatonic, he clearly displays intelligence and sadism when it comes to killing his victims, such as by stalking innocent people, including Laurie, pinning a guy inside a closet, or deliberately ruining people's lives simply for his own amusement. Doctor Sartain claims that he is completely aware and that he is capable of speech but just refuses to speak. This shows that he has moral agency.
- His actions and traits are the reason for the horror movie baseline, with him becoming the archetype for a slasher movie villain.
Halloween[]
- Murdered his older sister Judith at the age of six.
- After escaping from Smith's Grove, he kills a mechanic to steal his clothes.
- Goes on a killing spree across through his hometown, Haddonfield.
- Killed and ate the Wallace family's dog.
- Tries to kill Laurie Strode (who is his younger sister) numerous times.
- Stalked and killed Laurie's best friends Annie and Lynda (and her boyfriend Bob).
- Stole Judith's gravestone and placed it behind Annie's body. He also positioned the bodies of the other victims in a way that scared Laurie.
Halloween II[]
- Stole a knife from Mrs. & Mr. Elrod and proceeded to murder a girl next door named Alice.
- Broke into an Elementary school in order to write the word "Samhain" in blood on a chalkboard while also leaving behind a drawing of his family with "sister" written and with a knife pinned to the drawing of his sister.
- Murdered a bunch of Hospital staff members who were protecting Laurie in many brutal ways, such as drowning Nurse Karen in a boiling therapy tub, stabbing Dr. Mixter in the eye with a needle, injecting a needle into Nurse Jannet’s temple, and draining Nurse Alves blood with an IV machine.
- Slit Terrence Gummel's throat when he was checking if he was alive after getting shot by Dr. Loomis.
- Tried to kill Laurie one final time, causing Dr. Loomis to sacrifice himself in order to kill him by releasing all the oxygen gas in the room and causing an explosion with his lighter.

Trivia[]
- Although almost all the versions of Michael are Pure Evil, the only ones that would not be qualified are:
- The Thorn Timeline version, who was being affected by the Curse of Thorn and therefore had no control over his actions.
- The version of the Rob Zombie remake duology, who was shown with redeeming qualities such as caring for his late mother as well as Laurie and having a tragic backstory of childhood abuse.
