10 Worst Horror Movie Characters Of 2022
5. Michael Myers - Halloween Ends
While it inevitably won't be, Halloween Ends should represent the unequivocal end for Michael Myers.
It seems an absolute depressing certainty the masked murderer will be dragged back to life to inflict the usual played out and unentertaining slash-fest at some point in the near future. With that being said, any rational person who isn't a Hollywood fat cat with a dollar sign where their soul and integrity used to be, could surmise that this is a character for the history books as of 2022.
Much like his aforementioned contemporary Leatherface, Myers is an intrinsically iconic horror character who should have been allowed to die organically long ago. The fact that so little cinematic justice has been done to what remains of the duo in recent years is a truly lamentable state of affairs - legitimately damaging the legacy of a pair of shoe-ins for the horror villain Hall of Fame.
The equally morbid thing about Halloween Ends is that it's not even the worst follow up focusing on Myers - merely a distinctly median offering that fails to do its lavish promotional campaign justice. At the end of the day, the latest half-*ssed Myers-centric attempt ultimately does little to dispel the notion that this is a character - and franchise, to boot - that puts the phrase "flogging a dead horse" to abject shame.
