What would Michael do if he killed Laurie?


Just wondering if Michael had killed Laurie before Loomis showed up, just choked her down like he does with Annie after stabbing her, maybe carries her body across the street.

Would Michael pretty much just give up his murder spree right there? Almost wish he got Laurie and came home, then maybe the police find him at the old Myers house and shoot him, he kills some cops and vanishes or is shot.

Would he really live in the basement/sewer area underneath his old house for decades like Resurrection implies? Or would he just stand in a trance and get captured like he does as a kid?

The movie is great but there seems to be no endgame for Michael, either he gets captured after his successful murder spree recreation, or he goes into hiding for decades and murders every single woman that reminds him of Judith Myers, while living in or near his old house.

That itself would be creepier than him escaping and getting blown up in Halloween 2, having Michael kill Laurie along with everyone else and not getting caught, just killing young teenage girls and their boyfriends for years and never being caught again, the police would only slow him down over the years but not ever kill him, Haddonfield would become a living hell.

Too bad Michael never moved on to a big city like Chicago or New York City and started stalking women that reminded him of Judith, thousands of young women would be killed by him, but a lot of them and their friends and boyfriends would fight back, Michael would have himself a field day, and the huge numbers of urban Police would be powerless to stop him too.

If you go by his original motivations in the first film, he'd continue to stalk babysitters. Even if you go by his need to kill family, he'd still probably kill people, babysitters, etc. I don't think he's the type to retire to Florida once his work is done. The need to kill, to survive is just in him. He's evil, no rhyme or reason. Maybe people would try to move into his house, which is both his hiding place and sacred to him. Then those people would be looked for and so on, bringing a lot of attention to himself and his surroundings.

Much like Jason or Freddy, once you run out of original victims you find another reason to kill, it's just who they are.

i'd like to see him be a stalker/killer in a big city. see how long he could get away with it before being caught or killed

He seems to be okay going around unmasked in crowds. It's the night time you'd have to worry. Subways, dark alleys, the Boogeyman lurks in every corner.

I think it ends with him killing Laurie.

He retired to put his feet up in Hawaii.

There's no explanation needed. That's what makes it scary.

Probably Loomis would had defuse the whole situation, defuse Myers. Provided him a little gap and let him slip through it...In a couple of weeks probably the cops would had pick him up in Seattle or someplace, working in a car wash...There'll be no fight and nobody else will get hurt.

Always remember...Don't be a sucker.

Maybe he would go have a beer or go to Disneyland because his work is done.
