The Halloween franchise is somewhat unique among slasher movies in that it has numerous continuities. All of the movies take place after the 1978 original, though not all of them are canon with each other. Thus, it can be confusing to keep track of which movies are related to one another, especially when some of them were released in such quick succession. Such is the case with a somewhat infamous sequel from 2002.Halloween H20: 20 Years Later wasn’t canon with most of its predecessors, only building upon the first two movies. Thus, some might believe that Halloween: Resurrection does the same. There are a few reasons to believe this, but the reality behind the sequel and the H20 continuity is sadly fairly disappointing.Until the release of Halloween H20, the series had a mostly uninterrupted continuity. The main exception was Halloween III: Season of the Witch, which was a completely unrelated story with no connection to Haddonfield or the killings of Michael Myers. This was part of a failed attempt to turn the series into a horror anthology, and its lack of success saw the story return to the pre-established continuity. Thus, Halloween IV: The Return of Michael Myers is a sequel to Halloween II. Together with Halloween V: The Revenge of Michael Myers and Halloween VI: The Curse of Michael Myers, these movies make up the “Thorn trilogy.”RELATED: Blumhouse’s Halloween Trilogy Gets New 4K Steelbook Set
