Like H20, Jamie Lee Curtis got involved, and then it’s like “Okay, now the movie’s off the ground.” The original Halloween 7 was supposedly going to be a direct to video sequel about Michael attacking girls at an all women boarding school. Then Jamie Lee Curtis got involved, and saved the franchise from going to direct to video with H20.

This film probably didn’t have anything to do with Laurie, maybe she’d be mentioned in passing, or perhaps she was asked for a cameo. But, considering she’s kind of got no project that I can think of that she’s doing at this point, and considering John Carpenter came back to cash in on this beaten horse as well, she probably figured “why not?”, and got a role in the story.

Hell, I’ll speak for myself when I say I wasn’t too sure this film would’ve seen the light of day, considering how many attempts at a film has happened since the RZ films. Even with John Carpenter involved, I thought back to Texas Chainsaw 3D and Terminator: Genisys, where both creators have their names attached to these films, and say they’re proud of the final product, even though it’s a complete turd. But when Jamie Lee Curtis was involved, I knew it would be like H20: a competently made movie, but a mediocre script.

I never liked the brother angle in the second film, it made Myer's into something human. So I am not against the reckoning they are trying in regards to the sequel. Laurie isn't as important in my mind as Myers, she could be good or bad depending on how they pull it off. The idea of a completely unrelated story involving Michael Myers, Haddonfield and Halloween is very interesting.

Wrong, wrong, and laughably wrong again.

He's not remotely the Rob Zombie version, dumbass. He's the JOHN CARPENTERS HALLOWEEN version! Get a clue.

You have no idea, I think. They are going right back to the first film, retconning it. This could be a new direction for the franchise. They are making a point of ignoring the other sequels and the R Zombie reboot.
