Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) saves Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) from Michael Myers (Tony Moran) by shooting him, causing him to fall out of the window, and apparently to his death. As Loomis consoles Laurie, he notices that Myers' body is missing.
Factual error: There's no way that the knife that killed Bob was long enough to go through his body and impale the wall behind him. And a butcher knife cannot "pin" a human body to a wall and just stay put, they aren't strong enough.
Trivia: Michael Myers' mask is a Captain Kirk mask painted white with ruffled hair and a few other tweaks. William Shatner has said that he's never received any royalties from this franchise for using his likeness.
Question: I have wondered this for ages. Laurie went over to the Wallace house because she thought they were all playing a prank on her. So when she found the bodies in the bedroom, why did she never assume that this could all just be a practical joke set-up? How did she know straight away that it was the real thing?
Chosen answer:Because it was too graphic and elaborate for her to think it might be a prank. Not to mention that there was probably a very distinctive smell to the room.
