Halloween

In the originalHalloween, we see6-year-old Michael Myers in 1963when he murders his older sister.

We see nothing of Michaels time in the Sanitarium until Rob Zombies remakes.

Why is Dr. Loomis so obsessed with Michael Myers?

Shouldnt an elderly psychiatrist have better things to do than chase a predator around town?

We know basically nothing about the Myers family.

Were never told when Michael and Dr. Loomis meet, we justassumeits at Smiths Grove Sanitarium.

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers

Its entirely possible they met before that.

What if Michael had behavioral problems and his parents had him seeing the doctor prior to the events ofHalloween?

Or, what if Judith was seeing Dr. Loomis and he preyed on her?

She was 15 when she died, meaning Dr. Loomis could have lost his whole career.

Its a trained psychiatrist vs. a 6-year-old, its really not that far-fetched.

The Myers parents would want to grieve quietly in private.

I would consider Dr. Loomis the true killer of Judith Myers.

Now, weve all seen Michael Myers go on a killing spree or two with our own eyes.

We know that he becomes a murder machine.Eventually.

You have to remember this isafterDr.

Loomis had constant access to Michael Myers for 15 years.

An adult can break down a child during 15 years.

Its entirely possible Michaels hulking frame is a direct response to the abuse inflicted on him by Dr. Loomis.

Tired of being victimized, he could have focused on bulking up in lockdown.

When Michael breaks out he is older and bigger, free for the first time in his life.

He hates what the world has made him become.

Where does he go to take out that anger?

The home of the family that refused to protect him.

Michael was six when he committed the original murder of his sister.

That means Loomis must have gotten to him very soon after the child became a ward of the state.

We just saw for ourselves what Michael looked like when he was that age.

Does that image match up with Loomis speech?

I think Michaels origin story is more sinister than we have been led to believe.
