#i wish corey lived so he could be the new shape but it's better this way i think. i guess.

[oldmyths]

Actually i have more to say

the whole idea of michael seeing something in corey, maybe that same darkness that came for him when he was a child, and letting him live is such a good fucking concept. or maybe corey sees something in michael and he falls into that pit arms outstretched to be comforted by the only person in haddonfield that would get it, from his perspective

the way they almost parallel each other is so fascinating too. it's not 1:1 but the way michael had his childhood ripped from him by his own hand to the way corey is essentially infantilized by everyone, even after the accident, and how that caricature of youthful innocence pushes him toward that darkness. how both of their lives were corrupted by the death they inflicted. the way evil is a disease, an infection. michael's mask and his face underneath scarred by burns. the way corey just takes the mask off of him in the sewer and says that michael's just a man. but he wears the mask when he's killing because it just feels right. i'm going to eat my hands
