Actual Mike Myers is the Scariest Michael Myers of Them All

Since Halloween lands right in the middle of the week this year, there’s a good chance that a lot of people are going to be celebrating by cozying up on the couch to watch horror movies. For horror-film junkies, Halloween may be a classic, but it also might not be the first thing they run to if they’re looking to really their hearts pumping. What could we do make the original Halloween more scary? The Screen Junkies think the movie would be much more disturbing if iconic slasher Michael Myers were played by the real Mike Myers.

After watching this prototype trailer, I’m inclined to agree. Myers’ performance in The Love Guru proved that he has the ability create truly terrifying characters, and I have no doubt he that his take on the role would continue to haunt my nightmares for years.
