The problem with me deciding which is my favorite franchise is that each of them have so many hits and misses in them that I go back and forth. Something like Friday the 13th doesn't have the best quality movies, but they tend to be fun to watch as a whole for a variety of reasons! Halloween, to me, has the better quality movies that sort of struggles nevertheless with plot and the gigantic holes in said plot I don't understand. Nightmare on Elm Street suffers, and I only speak for myself, because I kind of prefer my Freddy dark and terrifying and, clearly, Freddy became a wise-cracking icon for the 1980s which I can appreciate for what it was, but I still prefer dark and scary. lol Then there are so many others - Psycho, Hellraiser, Scream, and even lesser thought of films that sometimes don't come up in such a discussion like Night of the Demons, Jaws, Child's Play, etc. I think it would be a toss up between the Halloween and NoES series. No clear winner for me.
