I have my hubby's uncle fresh in mind. I was a girl of 17 at the time and was going to my boyfriend on the weekends and stayed with him as he lived some ways from me. Now my hubby's landlord, a man of over 80 made a pass on me, he was very insistent and very lewd and I was young and I do have Aspergers syndrome so I got rather upset, this made my boyfriend very upset as well so he called his uncle who lived near by and who is a policeman, not to rapport the man as he had not broken the law, but to give me some hints on security and how to handle people who behaved as morons. Now I said I was not afraid of the old man, he was small, thin and frail, and I am very strong for a woman, I just found the social part of it uncomfortable as I did not know what to say, what to do. Then my boyfriend's uncle said to never judge a person by looks and size to evaluate threat, for he had seen little 12 year old boys skilled in Martial Arts take down grown, top trained men. That sort of stuck with me.
However yes I do agree, the new Michael Mayers do have a more imposing figure, I think the difference between the two characters is about the same as the movies themselves. The original Mayers are silently imposing, it is his eyes, it is that you do not know where he is. He have a otherworldly feel to him, that even if he is human, he is this evil force that can not be stopped. The new Mayers had a more of a in your face way of scaring you, he is a killing machine. Both are scary, but in very different ways. The new Mayer smake you feel small, you have this powerful man who can rip you to shreds, the old one did not make you feel small, but he made you feel like there is no where you can hide for I am more than a normal man.
I think it vary from person to person which one of the two would be most scary.
