I'm sure by now most of you have heard the news that Rob Zombie, director of House Of 1000 Corpses and The Devils Rejects, has written and will be directing the prequel/re-imagining of one of horrors most famous movies Halloween. Rob Zombie has confirmed that all the remaining key characters will stay and that Michaels mask will not change. One of the most noticable changes is that Michael Myers is 10 years old when he murders his sister (we all know it'll happen) and he is 27 when he breaks free from the asylum he is comitted to, to stalk and try to kill his other unknown (maybe to the audience?) sister Laurie Strode. Zombie has stated that he wants Michael Myers to be the main character in the movie, not the usual sub-character in the backround, the movie will focus upon him form his early years until the fateful Halloween night he escapes. Two cast members has already been announced Daeg Faerch will play Michael Myers at 10 years old, he will most likely have more screen-time than Young Michaels in the original which lasted approximatley 9 seconds! Malcolm McDowell will play as Michael Myers' nemesis Dr. Loomis! Rob's wife Sheri Moon has announced she will have a part in the movie, but she says she will NOT play Laurie Strode, so i assume she might play Dr. Loomis's assistant nurse. Filming Is due to begin 29 January 2007 and with a release date of August 31 2007 (Not Halloween because of the Saw III horror movie battles in 2006), now I know a lot of people are going to say "Hallowen doesn't need to be remade..." or "It will suck", but lets be honest, nothing can be worse than Michael Myers Big Brother, Halloween Ressurection

and it will be interesting to see another take on the classic horror movie.

There has been a trailer that is floating around the internet claiming it's the real teaser trailer, I doubt it but either way it's pretty effective. Yuo decide for yourself!
