Halloween is for watching horror movies, and what is better to watch on Halloween than scary movies set on the holiday? John Carpenter’s Halloween franchise is without dispute the pumpkin king of All Hallows’ Eve. The Halloween franchise has 13 entries across at least four timelines. Originally, the plan was for the franchise to tell a different story set on Halloween with each sequel. The second film moved forward with Myers returning, and when the franchise tried to go back to the anthology concept with the third entry, Season of the Witch, audiences rejected it, and Myers would be brought back for ten more films, including a remake by Rob Zombie and a ret-conned legacy sequel trilogy from David Gordon Green.
