Happy Halloween
I absolutely love H20 I was 15/16 when the movie came out and I loved it. Josh Harnet was my crush at the time 😂. Probably the Halloween film I re-watch the most and I love that version of Laurie.
I loved this version so much!
I had a major crush on josh hartnet too, in fact I still do 😂
I also was 15 years old
So, I just recently discovered you and immediately subscribed because we seem to have very similar tastes in horror. Just watched Triangle for the first time this week and wowowow. So, I had a feeling we’d have the same favorite Halloween movie. I LOVE H20.
Finally Finally Finally!! Someone else put some respect on Resurrection!! I do understand the quirks with it but I feel like most people rank it so low just because everyone else does.
your ranking is so accurate (according to me) AND im so glad someone else appreciates the campness of resurrection LIKE thats a top tier halloween movie to me
i know halloween 2 (the OG) is objectively silly and kinda ridiculous but i love it so much it's a comfort movie
Halloween Ends was the least fan service friendly movie until the ending where two senior citizens fight in a kitchen. It’s still my favourite of newer Halloween movies, not necessarily because it’s less fan service but because it wasn’t afraid to have weird new ideas. It genuinely felt like less producer involvement (apart from the ending) and more freedom to the writers.
Lmbo. I hope they had their Life-Alert..
I know I’ve seen the first Halloween YEARS ago, but since you ranked a 70’s movie so highly I think I’ll rewatch it tonight! I had no plans for this halloween other than maybe carving a pumpkin or watching something spooky, so I appreciate this rec 🖤
Halloween H2O is also my favorite. It’s always a vibe because of the 90s and the location. Love it so much!
Not a popular opinion but I do enjoy watching Halloween 6. Not for the story, but for the small town Halloween aesthetic it gives off. It's definitely a comfort Halloween movie for me 😁
That's an interesting point. I always felt they got that part right. I was disappointed that they set the finale at the cold, sterile looking hospital. But the parts in the neighborhood looked great, as you say...and the earlier part in the barn, as well...
My defining timeline is HALLOWEEN 1978 , H II , H IV , H V , and H VI PC . It makes the most sense. H 1978 is a good stand alone. H II continues the story. I like H III , but it's unrelated. H IV picks up the story. H V hints about a new danger. And VI PC reveals many new elements. That's all I care about.
Yesss!! Here for this! I love both Laurie and Jamie. I surprisingly like the Rob Zombie ones too but kinda really hate the new trilogy. 😬 it felt so unnecessary to me. Here’s my ranking:
Halloween
Halloween 4
Halloween H2O
Halloween 2
Rob Zombie’s Halloween
Halloween 5
Rob Zombie’s Halloween 2 (upon recent rewatch I bumped this up a bit)
Halloween Resurrection
Halloween 2018
Halloween Kills
Halloween 6 The Curse of Michael Myers
Halloween Ends
I don’t rank Halloween 3: Season of the Witch in this because it’s really just it’s own entity! I love it as a stand-alone film!
Here's my ranking worst to best
Halloween Season of the Witch (never seen it)
Halloween Ends
Halloween Rob Zombie
Halloween 2 Rob Zombie
Halloween Resurrection
Halloween 6
Halloween 5
Halloween 4
Halloween Kills
Halloween
Halloween 2
Halloween 1978
Halloween H2O
You are like me. I love H20! My favorite way to watch them is: (1) Halloween - 1978, (2) Halloween 2, and (3) Halloween H20! That is my preferred trilogy.
SAME! That’s the trilogy for me too.
Yess BUT i would throw 3 in there and literally go 1, 2, 3 for 1 thru 3 if I wasn't thinking of only the ones where Michael was the killer. Halloween 3 I grew to love the older I got. I think I like 3 far more than H20.
I've seen your bottom 3 pics and I'm shocked that Halloween: Resurrection hasn't popped up yet. Lol That's MY worst... then, part 5. Ugg I LOVE Halloween Ends... The entity possessing Michael, trying to pass to a new host because Michael has taken too much damage... Michael refusing to let go.i loved it.
I think the most fun aspect of the Halloween franchise is the multiple storylines. It really gives you the option of picking what you like and leaving the rest out. In most cases though, it's best to know when you stop, none of them really wrap up clean.
I too have such a soft spot for H20 and Laurie's character arc in that one (Resurrection pissed me off naturally lol). But I was 17 when H20 came out so it was the first Halloween movie I ever saw in a theater and the energy in that theater was electrifying (especially coming after the first two Scream films re-invigorated horror).
H2O is my favorite Laurie Strobe especially towards the end. It’s #2 in my rankings. Happy Halloween
I love your tv with the VHS player, I had one as a kid and been on the lookout for one! ❤
I agree with your top 3 Halloween films of the franchise! I’ll only switch the order of your number 1 and 2 picks lol
Yay. So glad you enjoy the franchise ☺️😘
I’m not watching a horror movie this year, had to take a break cause it made me so paranoid. A Sarah video is the perfect supplement 😊
I have been watching your videos from the beginning pretty much and I cannot express how happy I am that you now understand the greatness of this franchise! 🖤🖤🖤 Happy Halloween! 🎃
I 100% agree that Rob Zombie should have remade Texas chainsaw! (But love the Texas remake as it is) Although I like his take on Halloween (I prefer part 2. I actually think it’s amazing!) his aesthetic would have been so suited to it! Was really looking forward to hearing your ranking 💙🎃
I feel like his writing would fit TCM much better than Halloween, in Halloween it felt forced but the people in TCM might actually talk like that😂
I feel Rob Zombie should've done Friday the 13th, since House of 1000 Corpses was basically a Texas Chainsaw reboot.
A shame because he openly turned it down and said “that movie is perfect as it is!” I think he was too close to that film to even want to remake it, with Halloween he probably felt enough distance to be confident in mostly doing his own thing
I love all of them, each brings its own special charm. 4 was the first I saw in the theatre so soft spot there-it was magical seeing a Halloween on the big screen for the first time. The audience went crazy. H20 handled the idea of trauma quite effectively and Jamie gave her best performance out of all her entries. It was originally supposed to take place in Maine, which would have given it the perfect atmosphere but it’s still a good time and gotta love the cast. 🎃
Great content, just love the narrative. Thanks so much 😊
H20 was the first Halloween movie I watched and back then I was pretty new to horror and honestly had no idea who Michael Myers was. I loved it so much, that I watched it almost every single day after school. The Curse... was the second movie I bought on VHS, and Ressurection was the first Halloween movie I bought on DVD. So these three hold a special place in my heart and now so many years later my partner bought me all three in 4k with this Scream Factory Collection. :D So I understand why you ranked The Curse last, but it is so nostalgic to me, that I love it even being so bad of a Halloween movie :)
Thanks for the post Sarah.Love the Halloween series 🎃🎃🎃
I’m so happy you love the franchise, certainly one of my favorites! Solid ranking as well. One thing I particularly love is the variety of style and feel throughout the franchise. Every movie is unique to its era and specializes in a particular tone. And I agree HKills rocks! Happy Halloween 🎃🔪

1.Halloween (1978)
2. Halloween II (1981)

whenever people criticize you for being negative, show them THIS video. You talk about all the movies with so much love, even though some of them are soooooo trash and not worthy haha. I always love your perspective! xoxoxoxo
Been waiting for this for soo long so glad you’ve done it 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!
Always makes me happy to see someone get into some movies I love and for them to like them too. Halloween is probably my favourite movie franchise and I hold these movies very close to my heart. Who cares which one of the franchise is your favourite and which one is your least favourite? You like the franchise and you are talking about it which is awesome and all that matter to me. Great video and I’m so glad you have finally gotten around to watching through this series!
i’ve been waiting for this day 😩 the ranking yea… but i’m talking about you being a certified halloween fan 😅
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! 🎃 Hope you’re doing well!!!!
Yessss! I was so looking forward to seeing your ranking! Even better it’s on Halloween! 🎃 👻 🧡
Omg!! I can't explain how much i love watching your videos❤❤
i love this!!
H20 is my favorite, not my favorite mask tho but its the best. I love the backstory of how it was made. I think our personal ranking is almost the same.
happy halloween!! 🎃🥰
Great video!!!
I’m currently watching all the Halloween movies for the first time myself (I’ve watched 8 so far) so I’m gonna wait to watch this video but I can’t wait to see your rankings!
Ty for reviewing the Halloween movies. It’s my very favorite franchise and it was great to see ur opinions ❤
this is a fantastic ranking omg
I’ve recommended it before but it always comes to mind when you mention your love of reality TV! There’s a cheesy low budget movie called Kolobos with this premise, but i actually reallllllly love that movie! You can tell that although there’s a low budget it was made with a lot of care.
I'm a Halloween fan since I was a child. Girl love this video and your ranking! 100% agree with that
Happy Halloween 🎃
Aside from the terrible dialogue, the worst part about Rob Zombie's Halloween is that he gave Michael Myers a backstory. The reason why Michael is such a great horror villain and what makes the original movie so great, is the fact that we don't know why he snapped. It's the unexplainable evil that's so effective about the original movie, and providing a backstory dissolves all of that mystique.
Well it’s also very unbelievable that most all characters are bastards so Zombie wants us to root for an intentional sympathetic slasher villain Myers because he’s killing awful characters the audience hates.
Good ranking and cool video Sarah!👉😃👈
Happy Halloween!🎃
I'm so glad you enjoyed the franchise!!! The classic long franchises like this are so hit and miss. I didn't watch the whole franchise until I was in my mid 20s, so I didn't have the nostalgia for it either. But it still wormed its way into a special place in my heart lol.
My top 4 are: Halloween Kills, Halloween (1978), Halloween (2018), Halloween H20 🎃
As someone who doesn’t really like this franchise (I’ve only seen the first 6 so far), I was very shocked to hear that the Halloween fans hate 6😅 it’s the first one I actually enjoyed, though I guess that makes sense bc it was so different, that’s why I liked it though
You didn’t enjoy the first 2?
@@shannonblegh1919 sadly no:( they were just too slow for me I think, but I watched them before I really started getting into horror, so when I finish all of them I’ll probably try to watch at least the first one again and see if I like it more with time
The Halloween series is amazing 🎃
Ranking is solid as hell 👏👏👏
As someone from a small midwestern town and with two sociology degrees, I LOVE Halloween Kills! Yeah it was a little goofy but the angry mob and chaos does it for me every time.
Not to mention, just look at what was happening in real life while they were filming that movie. Remember the "summer of 'love'"? We literally had ridiculous people with mob mentalities doing ridiculous shit in real life. So, I personally didn't see the mob aspect of the movie as being unrealistic at all. And thought it was good commentary on how a mob mentality and acting on pure emotion instead of critical thinking is always a bad thing and leads to chaos. I took something completely different from that aspect than most people, so I actually kinda liked it. I think the "evil dies tonight" chant was SUPPOSED to feel a bit obnoxious, because mobs in real life tend to be pretty obnoxious.
i love that today we’re wearing the same shirt i just got it from spirit halloween and i love it
Happy Halloween 🎃
im pinging it now, H20 is gonna be top two
edit OMG IT WAS HIGH UP BUT WILL NOT SPOIL LESSGOOOOOO THAT MOVIE IS SO GOOD definitely your style!!!! i just watched Halloween 2018, happy halloween!!! super happy to see you enjoying the franchise
H20 is one of my favorite sequels sad to see it getting treated a little more negatively 😢
It's so good! I saw it in theatres, and just loved it.
I did enjoy Resurrection, but I hated what they did to Laurie in that movie.
Halloween H20 is the absolute best! I didn't know people disliked it so much until after I watched it recently.
I think that movie is a two pack of ass but im glad some folks enjoy it
Love love love that Halloween H2O was your number one, it’s my fave! Soooooo good! Such a fun watch! 🎃
Adorable cat! Happy halloween!
Halloween resurrection is always dead last lol. That one is wild! Love you though
Awesome ❤❤
Happy Halloween 🎃🎃👻 👻 x
Halloween kills, resurrection, and h20 are fun, people hate fun. Ha
Halloween Ends is really well made. I think it’s a matter of accepting the story being told instead of wanting it to be something else.
I also got a black cat he’s called Onyx he gives me good luck
Halloween I&II (78&81) are my all time favorites!
Best Halloween treat 🎃🎃
I highly recommend giving Ends a rewatch. I hated it on first viewing and now it's my 2nd favorite of the franchise.
Absolutely agree with most of your list! Especially #1 and #2 🖤🧡
i am 48 now and i remember watching Halloween on tv in an around age 6 , by that time Halloween 2 was on tv, then finally we got a VCR which was a BETA max , so i rented Halloween and Halloween 2 , those two are hands down the best of the franchise, so i would always have H78 ranked #1 and part 2 ranked at #2 , they are basically side A and side B on thee old Laser disc format ,
Took you long enough. 😉. Glad you get it now. I love Resurrection, it’s my guilty pleasure film in the franchise. I will have to do my own ranking. I think you did a good job overall.
Thanks
I haven't even gotten to you talking about the movies yet. This already earns a like because of the adorable cat.
Fun list! I don't like H20 or Resurrection but it's cool seeing those rank higher for some.
Happy halloween, H20 is my fav too. I loved SMG’s Scream cameo within it and being so like Scream hahaha. Scream is my fav horror franchise.
Happy Halloween yall !

this checks out haha
I knew you were gonna love H2O! It's my fav as well! Now, about Resurrection...
I need to get all the halloween movies still. Working on it
Hell yeah glad to see some regard for Resurrection!
Totally agree that Rob Zombie should've done TCM. Idk who made the decision to have him do Halloween instead of TCM.
I like that your ranking is different because you don’t have the nostalgia of watching them when you were little🖤 my favorites are 4&5 because I remember watching them vividly when I was a child. Love Danielle Harris I also love the Rob zombie movies they are very gory and hard to watch but I feel have more action than the original movies. 😊
HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃🖤💀✨💜🌙

The way I watch them is 1,2,4,5,6.
I love how 80s cheesy slasher part 4 and 5 is. The ending of part 4 shocked me. Love that twist. However, I enjoy the other movies too, except Halloween Ends and the Rob Zombie part 2.
I agree with you on Rob Zombie doing Texas Chainsaw Massacre, we need that movie! And I love House of a 1000 Corpses.
we have the exact same top 5 however my order would be
1. H20
2. Halloween 2
3. Halloween 1978
4. Kills
5. 2018
OMFG... this is hard!
I didn’t expect to see resurrection so high

my favorite horror franchise!! 🔥
