Crypt TV put a small makeshift room on Universal CityWalk with the Halloween logo on it and dared tourists to open it. When they did, inside was a Michael Myers lookalike. How did they react? Same way moviegoers will this weekend. First, they say it, then they do it.
On October 25, 1978, Halloween was forever changed thanks to Michael Myers and Jamie Lee Curtis. Nearly 40 years later, on October 18, 2018, they get to tell their story one last time in Halloween’s final chapter together because it is being billed as Laurie Strode’s final confrontation with Myers. What does that means, we will find out in a year, a month and 4 days.
This the 6th time she has played the part in the franchise and let’s just hope she goes out as brilliantly as she came into the Horror movies. Since the legendary director John Carpenter, who started it all, is consulting on the upcoming feature, you know it will be better than Halloween III: Season of the Witch.
This is the 9th film (not including the Rob Zombie reboot and its sequel) in the franchise and the first one 15 years.
If it is done well and does good at the box office, hopefully Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street will get the sequels that they so rightfully deserve.
Danielle Harris did the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and the Halloween Scream Queen did it completely nude. She did it in her birthday suit to get her message out there. What it is was only revealed after General Hospital’s Kimberly McCullough poured the ice water on her.

Thirty-five years ago Halloween was forever changed thanks to man by the name of Michael Myers. To celebrate his anniversary Anchor Bay released a special anniversary Blu-ray edition with never before seen features that available for you to own now.
The scary tale has been transferred to HD with the help of from the movie’s cinematographer, Dean Cundey. Along with the visual update director John Carpenter and star Jamie Lee Curtis lent their voices for a brand new audio commentary track. Curtis also participates in an hour-long featurette where you get to really know her as she meets some of Laurie Strode’s biggest fans. She lets the cameras in and we get to see what finally got her to attend the function, personal stories from her life after Halloween and her interaction with the fans. One of the most fascinating reveals is that she is not a fan of horror movies even though her mom and her such a big part of the genre.
The special features also include an on-location feature for the 20th anniversary and you hear why they chose the locations that they did. We get a tour of the Haddonfield, Illinois that really is in Pasadena, Ca and West Hollywood.
The original trailer and radio spots are included. After you select those special features you will be surprised the movie did as well as it did. Unlike today trailers, the movie is so much better than the trailer.
Finally if this is not enough for you, the Blu-ray comes with limited-edition book-style package (available only for the first printing) with 20 pages featuring archival photos, an essay by Halloween historian Stef Hutchinson and specially commissioned cover art by Jay Shaw.
This is a must own for any fan of the Halloween franchise, so what are you waiting for? Run out and get it while supplies last.

Rob Zombie the horror movie director and writer who brought us House of a 1,000 Corpses, The Devil’s Rejects and the first two Halloween remake films to name a few is cleaning up his act because he did a commercial for Woolite. When I read that he was doing an ad for a detergent, for some reason I thought it was going to be all happy and colorful like all the others, but what I saw was a beautiful nightmare come true. Seriously that is one of the most brilliant commercials I have ever seen! He needs to win the Cleo for it because it is so spot on.
The only problem I have with the advertisement is that when I came up with ads like that in college my teachers told me I would never make it in Advertising. I guess that is why “they say those who can do and those who can’t teach!”
