Jamie Lee Curtis Interview – HALLOWEEN KILLS and the Legacy of Michael Myers

Jamie Lee Curtis Interview – HALLOWEEN KILLS and the Legacy of Michael Myers Jamie Lee Curtis is an icon in the horror genre thanks to her memorable role of Laurie Strode in the Halloween movies. If you’ve been following my work over the last decade, you know that Halloween is my favorite scary movie of all time. I’ve been obsessed with this franchise since I was far too young to be watching scary movies. I had the great honor to sit down with Curtis to talk about the latest in David Gordon Green’s new trilogy, Halloween Kills. We talk about having some of the originalRead More →

Movie Trailer: HALLOWEEN KILLS

HALLOWEEN KILLS Word started racing around Film Twitter on Thursday, June 24 that the new Halloween Kills trailer was attached to The Forever Purge. This lead to leaks from people who already saw that trailer and the teams at Universal Pictures and Blumhouse decided to release it ahead of schedule. I’ve watched it a few times now, and it does NOT disappoint! I will say that it looks pretty spoiler heavy in terms of explaining how Michael Myers gets out of the house that’s burning down as we saw at the end of Halloween (2018) and we get shots of some brutal kills. We getRead More →

I’ve done many write ups and a podcast episode about it over the years, and the recent sequel met all of my high expectations.

HALLOWEEN KILLS – WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR

HALLOWEEN KILLS – WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR Halloween Kills has officially started filming and we’re getting more insider news about casting and some of the themes writer/director David Gordon Green will be covering. The last time I wrote about Halloween Kills was with the news that Anthony Michael Hall will be playing Tommy Doyle, one of the original kids Laurie Strode and her friend Annie were babysitting on that original night they met Michael Myers. I’ve read a few tweets by original Tommy Doyle Brian Andrews that he’s not too pleased about being passed over. With the news of the return of Tommy Doyle,Read More →

ANTHONY MICHAEL HALL JOINS “HALLOWEEN KILLS”

ANTHONY MICHAEL HALL JOINS “HALLOWEEN KILLS” Halloween enthusiasts are rejoicing with the news that the character of Tommy Doyle will be appearing in Halloween Kills. Blumhouse Pictures announced that Anthony Michael Hall will now be playing the character who first made his appearance in the original film as the little boy, then played Brian Andrews, that Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) was babysitting on that fateful night. They carved jack-o-lanterns, and she rolled her eyes at the fact he hid comic books under the couch. Audiences would go on to see Paul Rudd (yes, that Paul Rudd) play  the character in the sixth film, Halloween:Read More →

Here’s their statement: In response to the global fan enthusiasm for last year’s Halloween, starring Jamie Lee Curtis and directed by David Gordon Green, which went on to become the highest-grossing installment in the classicRead More →
