Frankly, what I’m hoping they do with this movie is take it back to the style of the original, with suspense, not gore. Also, realistic, likeable characters that you actually care about. Also, I hope they bring back the class and style of the original, along with the atmosphere, with the lighting and music. The original proved less is more, and it’s simplicity works wonderfully well. In fact, I just watched the original this past weekend for the first time since last Halloween, and I just noticed something else I never have before, how realistic and believeable it all feels. It legitimately feels like it could actually happen in your own neighborhood, it felt like Halloween and you felt the threat of Michael being out there somewhere, yet no one really knows about it, which makes it even creepier, just like in real life if an armed and dangerous criminal is on the loose in your area, you feel the threat of that, that’s what I get from the original Halloween, and I love that. With John Carpenter on board, I can see it being possible.
So pumped. For sure didn’t expect that,however I hope it does retcon H20 and Resurrection as much as I do like parts of H20,picking up from H2 is best.
No idea, but since that photo has Jamie Lee in Laurie’s Halloween 1 trademark outfit it is quite safe to say that this mask isn’t an officially definite mask they are using in the film. I’m really hoping it will turn out that the mask indeed is the one they will use or another one from the same mold looking more aged and/or just weathered because this mask does in my opinion look terrific.
Hoping for the best. I hope they don’t go all H:20 with this and have it be some survivor drama though, I think Carpenter won’t let that happen if he’s a more hands on producer than he has been in the past.
