8. Michael Myers (Halloween)

One of the most exciting things about 2018 is that we'll see the return of a baddie who's proven he can dish out the pain on numerous occasions: Halloween's Michael Myers.

The eleventh(!) movie in the franchise, 2018's Halloween will act as a reboot of sorts, ignoring every other sequel and only acknowledging John Carpenter's original 1978 masterpiece.

Little is known about Michael's big-screen return, but one thing we do know is that Carpenter would not bring back his most iconic creation without good reason, since he never wanted to make sequels in the first place.

Expect Michael to be as creepy, menacing and merciless as he was in that very first movie (without the apparent invincibility and character-ruining backstory that many of the sequels gave him), a pure force of nature that cannot be reasoned with, and a horror icon designed to do one thing, and one thing only: kill.

This is the way Michael was portrayed in the original film, and this is also the way he'll be portrayed in his 2018 return. How do we know? Well, Nick Castle - the guy who played Michael in Halloween 1978 - will be donning the pale white mask once again.

Be ready for nightmares.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
