When David Gordon Green got the greenlight to begin developing a new take on the “Halloween” franchise, he started by fleshing out a story that would resurrect Michael Myers and pit him against Laurie Strode once again. Initially, Green wanted to pitch two films that he would shoot back-to-back, which would ultimately serve as one complete story.
Those plans were scratched but Green still found massive success with the release of his first “Halloween” film in 2018. It didn’t take long for the studio to order sequels, which gave Green a chance to expand his idea from two films to three after realizing he had enough story to stretch across a trilogy.
The new plan involved an aggressive, action packed sequel for the second film and then what Green called a “love story” for the third.
Set four years after the events of “Halloween Kills,” Haddonfield is still haunted by the specter of Michael Myers but it doesn’t take long before the town discovers a new boogeyman in their midst…
In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we’re going to put a butcher knife in the pumpkin as we say goodbye to Michael Myers and Laurie Strode with our review of “Halloween Ends”…
