September Something, 2018
We are less than a month away from the theatrical release of the David Gordon Green-directed continuation of John Carpenter's (and Debra Hill's) 1978 All Hallow's Eve horror classic: SHATNER NIGHT HALLOWEEN and I already got my Magic Ticket!
(Bask in it's glory.)
To get all hyped up for the spooky película...I went diggin' around like Bugs Bunny...(though I didn't get lost & end up in Albuquerque)...and I's tells ya I's founds us a whopper! You see, son...co-writer Danny McBride of Frankenstein recently spoke about how, at first, this frightening flick wasn't going to be a direct sequel...but instead...it was going to possibly use all the sequels in it's backstory! The Eastbound & Down star said that this idea was seriously considered at one point!
(Writing a cool Halloween sequel requires a gorillion hits of acid.)
Jeesh...wouldn't you have liked to been a not-so-average-bear at that picnic? Anyways, if reading that didn't get your imagination runnin' wild like Hulkamania...then perhaps some sweet visuals will hit the spot? That IS why you clicked the link to this article, right? Alrighty then...let's eagerly anticipate this frightening new film together by staring endlessly at these cool sneak peaks & ultra-rad posters!
Let's start out with an archaic print media format that people from olden times called a "magazine." Apparently, like talking M&Ms and Santa Claus...they do exist. This particular periodical, Entertainment Weekly, (not to be confused with Brainwash Monthly) has Jamie Lee on the cover and some cool photos inside. Click the images to order this collectible single issue.(Thought this was Jamie Lee Curtis doing an Olin Mills-style dual head shot gimmick with a special mirror that showed what she looked like under all the years of make-up but then I realized it's Michael Myers.)
("He's behind me again...isn't he?" Yes, yes he is.)
(This what the aftermath would've looked like had they hit a superplex off the balcony.)
