10 Dumb Decisions In Horror Movies That Got The Villain Killed
6. Dr. Sartain Orchestrates Michael's Escape - Halloween (2018)
In 2018's Halloween, Michael Myers breaks out of Smith Grove's Psychiatric Hospital 40 years after his initial killing spree, tormenting the Haddonfield residents once more. Myers' psychiatrist, Dr. Ranbir Sartain, tracks down Laurie Strode, believing the masked killer will make contact with her.
After Sartain teams up with Deputy Hawkins, the pair are assaulted by Michael. Just as Hawkins is about to shoot the mute maniac, Sartain attacks him, revealing he orchestrated Michael's escape. Sartain then delivers a typical evil monologue, explaining how he grew weary while studying his imprisoned patient, believing he could only assess Michael by releasing him into the wild.
Almost immediately after Sartain divulges his convoluted motivation, Michael smooshes his head to paste. At this point, the only thing viewers can think of is, "What did you think was going to happen?" Also, did Sartain think this decision would benefit his career? He just told everyone he was the mastermind behind Michael's latest massacre!
Considering Sartain has worked with Michael for decades, he should've been well aware that unleashing him into the real world would've had disastrous consequences - at least for himself.
