First Official Photos from ‘Halloween’

We recently announced that the trailer for David Gorgon Green’s Halloween will drop this Friday, and with that day looming ever closer, USA Today have scored some official photos from Halloween which reveal the terrifying Michael Myers and Laurie Strode who now appears to be bringing the fight right to Michael. Check out the goods below.

In addition to the photos, we have a few more details pertaining to the plot as revealed by USA Today;

A British documentary crew comes to the States to visit Michael in prison for a retrospective of the maniac’s night of terror — “Someone has to bring a modern audience into a 40-year old movie,” Curtis says — but their project becomes way more interesting when Myers escapes custody, retrieves his signature mask and seeks revenge on Laurie, with others naturally being part of his impressive career body count along the way.

In the decades following the fateful Halloween night that forever altered the former babysitter’s life, Laurie has armed and prepped herself for Michael’s inevitable return — to the detriment of her family, including daughter Karen (Judy Greer) and granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak).

“We’re being very honest and truthful about that, how it would affect the upbringing of her daughter, who has a lot of conflicts because of her mother’s obsession with this incident, and her granddaughter, who’s trying to connect” with Laurie, Green says.

Look for Halloween in theatres this October 19th.
