So here's my goofy tribute to John Carpenter's 1978 movie "Halloween". It's just a pile of different elements from the film that I find interesting, all thrown together in one scene. Yes, I know it doesn't make a lot of sense. Obviously Dr. Loomis never rescued Lynda in the movie. But when I drew Dr. Loomis in that cool action pose, rushing down the front steps of the Myers house with gun drawn, my comic book instincts told me that he needed a damsel in distress hanging on his arm... And that it had to be Lynda (played by PJ Soles in the movie), in her "See anything you like?" scene. I immediately realized how stupid this was but found it so funny that I couldn't bring myself to change it. My apologies to the hardcore Halloween fans for my overall silliness.

Incidentally, of all the victim-girls in "Halloween", I always liked the character of Annie best. So I made her the main girl in the image. Her outfit is something else that won't make much sense unless you are familiar with the film.

Michael Myers is tricky to draw. Because he is wearing that awkward, ill-fitting mask, you basically have to draw his head too big for his body on purpose.

So there you go!

Yikes! So, we continue a series romping through the horror/slasher flicks of the last few decades. By the way, you draw grass and wood texture very well, and I love the gray-shrouded old home in the background, too. What's next? Christine? The Thing (loved that one)? How 'bout a vampire flick? Salem's Lot is a favorite, although the book was a little more freaky...

That's what she wore in the movie! Along with white undies with some kinda red and blue pattern. I know because I actually checked the movie for accuracy. Late '70's era women's fashions while being stalked by a murderer in a laundry room rock!

He seems to be everybody's favorite. I figured I'd get around to doing a Michael Myers illustration eventually, but I didn't plan on doing it this soon. Because as much as I like the movie, Myers himself was never my favorite movie maniac. I don't think he's half as interesting as Freddy or Jason or Leatherface... but after I did my Freddy and Jason illustrations a couple of weeks ago, I got a ton of responses from people asking me to do a Michael Myers piece next. So I gave in and here he is.
