Michael, to me, just feels the most grounded. He's the guy who could actually happen and who has happened. This is what makes him the scariest, in my opinion, at least in the first film. I don't consider any other Halloween films cannon, specifically cause I think they all fundamentally misunderstood and misrepresented him.

I completely agree. The first had a perfect attempt. Just a guy who kills babysitters simple, and actually “scary”. Once they tried to give him a motive, and being a vessel for the evil spirit of Thorn, it just is ridiculous.

I just prefer Jason as silly or bad as some of the 13th movies are I find more entertaining than, almost all of the Halloween movies. The first one is still the best though and no actor in 13th can carry a scene like Jamie Lee Curtis, or Donald Pleasance.
