RANKED: The 'Halloween' franchise
What started as an independent film full of tension, suspense, and dread quickly blossomed into a lucrative, decade-spanning franchise that has since undergone a remake, and a sequel to the remake.
As the series progressed, the films moved further and further away from the spirit of the original until they reached a breaking point.
They got so bad that the writers of the later films literally had to un-do all the egregious errors set up by the truly terrible ones.
The history of the "Halloween" franchise is one riddled with production horror stories, differing opinions of what the films should be, and, of course, a bunch of dead teenagers.
Scroll down for a full breakdown and ranking of each film in the original, pre Zombie-fied "Halloween" universe.
For the sake of consistency, I've included the numbers in each title, even if they are not actually there.
