9 Insulting Ways Characters Were Killed Off Between Horror Movies

1. Laurie Strode Is Hit By A Car - Halloween 4

Laurie Strode is undeniably That Bitch. She’s strong, determined, clever and survives the nightmare that is Michael Myers time and time again. She even survives the ridiculously complicated Halloween timeline, coming out on top once again in the recent 2018 Halloween.

This wasn’t always the case, however. Halloween IV brought The Shape back into the frame after the disastrous attempt to do something new with the franchise in Halloween III. Viewers were excited to have him back and were perhaps even more excited to see how his battle with Laurie Strode would develop this time around.

Well, about that…

Prior to her return in Halloween H20, Laurie Strode was killed off from the series, but not via a death at the hands of Myers, which could really be the only way for her end to be satisfying for audience members.

Instead, it’s an off-screen car crash that gets her. For a character so badass, this is such a boring and arguably pathetic death. Let Laure die all guns blazing, I beg!!

Laurie does meet her maker a total of three times throughout the Halloween franchise, so there were shots at redemption, even if some of these on-screen deaths were just as insulting...
