EVERY Halloween Death RANKED By Stupidity

Ismael Cruz - Rob Zombie's Halloween

Dimension Films

Much like Judith's boyfriend Steve, Ismael Cruz - as memorably played by Danny Trejo - is one of the few sympathetic characters of a grimy, disturbing movie.

Smith's Grove staff member Ismael is one of the few friendly faces towards Michael, having looked after him for 15 years, from a ten-year-old boy to a 25-year-old hulking beast of a man. While many of his co-workers may have wronged Michael and treated him badly during those years, Ismael always treated him like a human being.

Unfortunately for Ismael, those 15 years of kindness are thrown out of the window on the night that Michael Myers decided to bust out of Smith's Grove. With various security guards and Smith's Grove staff dead, Ismael, despite his pleas, is brutalised, nearly drowned, and then has a TV dropped on his head to finish the job.

As Ismael desperately says to Michael, "I was good to you, Mikey," with this death further hammering home that Michael was now completely devoid of any emotion or reasoning.

Judith Myers - Rob Zombie's Halloween

The first victim of John Carpenter's Halloween, Judith Myers is actually the fourth victim of Rob Zombie's Halloween.

With her abusive stepfather Ronnie having been killed, and then her boyfriend Steve beaten to death, it's Judith's turn to bite the bullet when young Michael heads up to her room, collecting the classic William Shatner mask along the way.

Initially thinking Steve has come back into the room, Judith slaps Michael when she realises it's him. In turn, Michael stabs his older sister in the stomach, then watches her stagger out of her room and down the landing, before eventually stabbing her a bunch more times to seal the deal.

Alan Hooks - Rob Zombie's Halloween II

Dimension Films

While Gary Scott was a victim of Michael's, Alan Hooks is the coroner who was driving that van as it ran into a stray cow.

Hooks edges out his buddy here in the stupidity ranks, as while both are guilty of spewing some horrendous dialogue, it was Hooks who was so engrossed in that dialogue that he took his eyes off the road, being totally unaware he was about to smash into that cow.

As for his death, rather than being at the hands of Michael, Hooks is killed by the impact of that crash.
