Michael Myers is a fictional character from the Halloween film series. The character has appeared in seven of the eight Halloween films, as well as in several comic books and other media forms. He also appeared in the newest version of the film, made by Rob Zombie, in Halloween (2007)
One of the first slasher villains, his murders occur on Halloween, with some films depicting him active in the preceding day or so, targeting family members, but willing to kill everyone that comes in his way. In some of the later movies, Michael decides that anyone living in his old home is his family, and goes after them as well. Michael Myers is absent from Halloween III: Season of the Witch, although he makes a small appearance on a TV screen at a bar that the main character goes to.
Some fans and even cast and crew of the films sometime call the character The Shape, which is what some of the actors playing the character are credited as. This dates back to the script for the first film in which Michael Myers is referred to by name only twice, in the beginning and end scenes; at all other times, with the exception of dialogue, he is simply referred to as a "shape" due to his face not being visible.
The character was named Michael Myers after the head of Miracle Films, a now defunct distribution company that helped release John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 in the U.K.

Jason Voorhees is a fictional character from the Friday the 13th series of slasher films. He first appeared in Friday the 13th (1980) as Mrs. Voorhees' son, portrayed by Ari Lehman. Created in combination by Victor Miller, Ron Kurz, Sean S. Cunningham and Tom Savini, he was never intended to carry the series as the main villain. Jason Voorhees has also been represented in numerous novels, comic books, and a cross-over film with another horror legend, Freddy Krueger.
The character has primarily been an antagonist in the films, whether by stalking and killing the characters, or acting as a psychological threat to the lead character, as is the case in Friday the 13th: A New Beginning. Since Lehman's portrayal, the character has been represented by numerous actors and stuntmen, sometimes by more than one at a time; this has caused some controversy as to who should receive credit for the portrayal. Kane Hodder is the most well known of the stuntmen to portray Jason Voorhees, having played the character in four consecutive films.
The character's physical appearance has gone through many transformations, with various special makeup effects artists making their mark on the character's design, including makeup artist Stan Winston. Tom Savini's initial design has been the basis for many of the later incarnations. The trademark hockey mask did not appear until Friday the 13th Part 3. Since Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives, filmmakers have given Jason superhuman strength, and near invulnerability. He has been seen as a sympathetic character, albeit one whose motivation for killing has been cited as driven by the immoral actions of his victims.
Jason Voorhees has been featured in many humor magazines, referenced in feature films, parodied in television shows, and been the inspiration for a horror punk band. Several toy lines have been released based on various versions of the character from the Friday the 13th films. Jason Voorhees was awarded the MTV Lifetime Achievement Award in 1992, and his hockey mask is one of the most recognizable images in popular culture.

Child's Play
After single mom Karen Barclay (Catherine Hicks) buys the possessed doll from a peddler, she gives it as a birthday gift to her 6-year-old son, Andy Barclay (Alex Vincent). Chucky resumes his killing spree by bludgeoning Andy's babysitter, Maggie (Dinah Manoff), on the forehead with a hammer, resulting in her fatal fall through the kitchen window. Police evidence initially points to Andy, who insists that Chucky is the culprit. After Andy is taken to a mental ward for observation, Karen learns of Chucky's true nature after realizing that the doll is functioning without batteries, and the two-foot terror flees after a violent confrontation with her.
Chucky learns from his former guru (whom he then murders) that he must transfer his soul into the body of the first person to whom he revealed his true identity, lest be trapped in the doll forever. Chucky pursues Andy to appropriate his body, but is stopped by Karen and Detective Norris. After being burned alive by Andy in a fireplace and having his limbs and head severed by gunfire, Chucky finally "dies" with a gunshot to the heart.
Child's Play 2
Set two years later when Andy is moving in with a foster family, since his mother is undergoing psychiatric evaluation. According to the Child's Play comic miniseries, Detective Norris was threatened into facing dismissal unless he told the authorities that Karen was unstable.
To prove their bad publicity wrong, Play Pals Inc, the creators of the "Good Guy" toyline, decide to rebuild Chucky, who is brought back to life. Chucky resumes his search for Andy, encountering and killing Andy's foster father (Gerrit Graham). Andy is blamed for the murder, and returned to the orphanage. After killing Andy's foster mother (Jenny Agutter), Chucky takes Kyle (Christine Elise), Andy's foster sister, hostage to help him find Andy.
Chucky brings Andy to the "Good Guy" factory with Kyle in pursuit. After failing to transfer his soul into Andy's body, Chucky realizes that he is trapped in doll form. He attempts to kill Andy and Kyle, but is instead doused in hot molten plastic after his legs and right hand are severed. The enraged and mangled Chucky is killed when Kyle shoves an air hose into the doll's mouth, causing his head to explode.
Child's Play 3
Upon turning 16, Andy (now played by Justin Whalin) is sent to military school having failed to cope in several foster homes. Meanwhile, Play Pals Inc re-releases its old "Good Guy" toyline, believing that their bad publicity has abated. When workers clean up the Good Guy Factory, a crane pierces one of Chucky's severed arms, causing a lot of blood to drip out, and when Chucky's headless corpse goes over a vat of liquid plastic, some of Chucky's blood leaks out into the vat, bringing him back to life once more. Chucky cleverly mails himself to Andy's school, where he is discovered by a young private named Tyler (Jeremy Sylvers). Realizing that Tyler is the first person to whom he revealed his identity in his new body, Chucky must now use Tyler, instead of Andy, for the soul transfer. When Andy learns that Chucky is around, he admonishes Tyler not to trust him.
Chucky induces Tyler to hide in a carnival where Andy gives chase. In the violent climax of film (occurring on a spookhouse ride), Chucky's face is half-severed with an iron scythe, his left arm is shot off, and he is shot in the chest. Andy hurls him into a large fan, where the doll is unceremoniously cut to ribbons.
