![]() ![]() Halloween 2: Rob Zombie's Biggest Mistake Was A Talking Michael Myers Fans had no problem with this, but apparently Rob Zombie did. ![]() Still, once in adult serial killer mode, Michael doesn't say anything. Michael's silence was finally, kinda sorta broken during the first half of Rob Zombie's 2007 Halloween remake, as more time is spent with young Michael both before and after he murders Judith, and he does speak during this period.

However, he never actually speaks during this sequence, as he's next seen escaping from Smith's Grove Sanitarium 15 years later, as a grown man. When it comes to silent slashers though, the two big kahunas are Halloween's Michael Myers and Friday the 13th's Jason Voorhees.ĭebuting in 1978's original slasher masterpiece from director John Carpenter, Michael Myers infamously made his first kill as a child, stabbing his sister Judith to death as seen from his own point of view. That's what makes a charismatic joker like Freddy Krueger, an eloquent demon like Pinhead, or a verbose psycho like Ghostface stand out from the pack. One thing most slasher villains have in common is that they don't talk, or at the very least do it sparingly. ![]() After several weeks in a coma and a complicated brain surgery, Faerch has now recovered.There were a lot of things wrong with Rob Zombie's sequel Halloween 2, but the biggest was having Michael Myers speak for the first time ever. Faerch has also spoken candidly about some of his struggles as a teen, including his overuse of drugs, and a traumatic experience having his head stomped in a mosh pit which brought on a seizure. Then Rob came in and said 'That's good, that's good, but maybe change this.'"įaerch began his acting career in 2004, and has continued to act to this day, having most recently appeared in an episode of "Euphoria." He was not able to appear in the 2009 sequel "Halloween II," as he had grown too tall. Luckily, Faerch had a script, a director, and a parent who were all willing to guide him through the process. "I had some ideas. It would be up to Faerch to essentially invent Michael, a tall order for an eleven year old. He was merely, as the series repeatedly stated, the boogeyman. Prior to Zombie's "Halloween," Michael Myers had appeared in seven other movies, and never had much of a personality in them. More complex was delving into Michael as a character. Then just go out and do something else." Faerch wouldn't be allowed to see the R-rated "Halloween" without a guardian until the year 2013. It's still kind of horror, but no killing. "I'm going to watch maybe the first 10 or 15 minutes where there's no killing. The young actor was also forbidden from attending the film's premiere. "I am going to be kept away. "And then my mom read it and said, 'You're not gonna read that.'" Mane seemed playfully miffed that Faerch didn't get to read his scenes. ![]() Mane only revealed that he studied Faerch prior to shooting his own scenes, but their meeting was nothing more than a hello. "I only read my part," Faerch said. He was only allowed to read his own scenes, and didn't get to work with Mane to ensure the child Michael and the adult Michael matched. In a 2007 video interview with Movieweb, Faerch even revealed that his mother wouldn't allow him to read the entirety of the script. Ironically, Faerch was too young to see a movie like "Halloween" in theaters. ![]()
