I feel the same way about the mainline Halloween movies. Just put the escapee down, c'mon.

I mean, at least in Halloween it is HEAVILY implied that Mike has something supernatural going on with his durability.

"implied" doesn't he get stabbed and shot repeatedly and just walk it off?

The Shape gets shot and stumbles out a window in the first movie and he's gone before Loomis can check on him.

Yeah "implied" because it's never actually explained why he survived that stuff. There's lots of hyperbole with characters saying "He's not human!" and similar, but there aren't any actual answers. It could very well be that he's just the luckiest murderer alive with basically no pain reflex.

Easily shakes off being hit by vehicles multiple times.

Like his ability to drive a car with that mask on 😂
