It’s that perpetual question that haunts us all at this time of year. Family dinner tables and rows of bars will be bantering about this Halloween conundrum that puzzles so many of us, this very special time of year. I’m sure this debate follows you everywhere as it does for all of us intellectuals! If Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees were to square off, who would win? Jason, the expressive hockey lover and Michael, the melanin deficient butcher knife wielder, who just like Jason, are angry with the world. Hello!
Both gentlemen are so needy. They ruin young love and have a bad habit of showing up where they are not invited. The boys tend to be high on the violent spectrum of the scale.
It’s difficult to be misunderstood and under appreciated. These young men are products of households deficient in solid role models and proper shop class direction. If only someone had explained how household utensils were meant to be used! Maybe they are just overachievers in their field but very poor communicators, making their popularity low on the party scale.
I would say that these iconic pillars of horror flicks have more in common than that which sets them apart. They are good at scaring us.
Happy Halloween!
More of this Karl! Scary good analysis!
