The Dimension
Films site has been update with a synopsis that confirms
the film is based around a group of students that set up camp
in Michael Myers house and broadcast their experience over
the internet. The site also states that the film is due 'Summer
2002'.
We've also had a couple of emails from a scooper named 'Lee',
who has provided us with some major plot spoilers for Halloween
8. Some of this we already know, but some we haven't heard
anywhere before.
LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ HALLOWEEN 8 PLOT SPOLIERS!!!
"I know very rare information
about Halloween 8, at the end of H20 Michael [Myers] is stabed
and thrown off a balcony but that should not stop him so near
the end of the film the FBI and paramedics get there and put
him in a body bag (etc etc), well Laurie chops his head off
and thats the end of that. Well that's what everyone thinks
- well this is what really happened".
"When
he is thrown off the balcony they collect him and put him
in a body bag but just as one of the paramedics is putting
him into the ambulance he attacks the paramedic (how he
recovers from his head being hacked of is revealled by Lee
in the last paragraph) and knocks him out, Micheal then
put's his mask on the paramedic that has just been killed,
zips the body bag up and puts the paramedics clothes on and
waits for Laurie but she drives off in the van, as she drives
away the one paramedic that walks away is Micheal, so in number
8 Laurie is now moved on and the film focuses on four teenagers
which set up a web site and a internet broadcast about Micheal's
house but as the project gets more and more famous, there
is a murder out side of town, it turns out it is Laurie Strodes
body, they officially stop broadcasting over the internet
but that wont stop Micheal so he hunt's them down and kills
them one by one".
Lee then goes back to the first scene of the movie and describes
how Myers recovers from his head being chopped off at the
end of halloween H:20.
"1st scene: It takes [follows on from] the end of
Halloween H20, you see when she chops his head off. [In Halloween
8], you also see how Micheal Myers escapes from the scene.
It then goes to the saniturim where she is staying then a
police officer tells her that she killed a paramedic instead
of Myers, she panics, the officer leaves to go back to his
car. The next night she dresses her self and goes to escape
out the hospital and rings her son to warn him, as she out
side of town she is being followed by someone but she does
not know who it is".
'Thanks to Lee'.

As we haven't updated for a little
while, here's 'Marc' who has the latest on Halloween 8.
Here is a bit of news ruffling a few feathers at the moment.
According to http://www.horrormaniacs.com/, Halloween 8 is
in more than a bit of trouble. It has supposedly been put
back once again, now being released in Summer 2003. Rick Rosenthal
has been sacked because of the hack job he has made and Steve
Miner (H20) brought in. Akkad is also reported to be so angry
at what this series has turned into that he has said this
is absolutly the last part (that bit just sounds weirder than
the rest). Obviously this is, at the moment, speculation as
there is no offical confirmation as of yet. (Thanks to
Marc).
8/8/01
There are rumours now circulating the
web that the film may have to be pushed back following the
first cut of the film being finished. Dark
Horizons today reported that Moustapha Akkad let slip
on a Canadian talk show that he was unhappy with the rough
cut and that the released may be pushed back. Meanwhile, the
site that broke the above news, Website
Of The Bogeyman have posted a couple of pics of the new
mask. (originally appeared
at Dark Horizons).

There's a lot of information posted
on an About.com
Forum regarding Halloween: The Homecoming. The author
has a chat with Thomas Ian Nicholas about his role in the
film and also reveals more details about the films plot, "We
have six college students that have all been selected by Busta
Ryhmes and Tyra Banks, which theyre really, really fun
people. Bustas really funny. Anyway, weve all
been selected to stay overnight in Michael Meyers original
house with live on the internet [broadcasts]. So, unbeknownst,
Michael Meyers is back." Follow the link

Horizons today posted details of the official release
date of Halloween: The Homecoming. The film will hit US theaters
on September 21st.

Jamie Lee Curtis has finally opened
up on her involvement with Halloween 8 and why she has chosen
to do the eight movie.. Talking to the Vancouver Sun, she
said; "[For] me that's an oddity, and it's certainly in
a genre of films that I don't particularly like, but there's
a very strong audience for that genre of film. I certainly
don't look down my nose at it, I'm proud of the work that
we do and I commit myself 100 per cent. But it's bizarre to
me." Check out Cinescape

Well the first week of the shoot is over and the Halloween
Movies official site reports that "Jamie Lee Curtis has
proven to be fun to work with for crew members, adding a great
deal of input into the overall plan." They also posted a picture
of the sanitarium location (see above). The second image (right)
is of the films production logo.
18/5/01
It seems that in an interview with Kevin
Williamson over at AICN, the whole Jamie Lee Curtis rumour
that she had already filmed her role for the eighth movie
was true. Now, whether she'll return to do more scenes remains
to be seen, but apparently there is footage filmed two years
go. Maybe they're gonna ditch what they did back then or maybe
even refilm the same sequence? We'll keep you posted.

Page created. The eighth Halloween movie!!! Michael Myers
returns once again. The announcement that the movie has been
green-lighted follows the recent sequels to Friday The 13th
(Jason X) and those spoof horror flicks Scary Movie, Shreik
and the Scream series.
Back is Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode and new additions
to the cast include rapper Busta Rhymes, the currently hot
Sean Patrick Thomas from Save The Last Dance and Jacinda Barrett
from MTV's The Real World London.
The working title for the film is Halloween 8: The Homecoming:
MichaelMyers.com. The shoot is currently underway having started
back on May 14th (just two days ago). It could even just go
by the title of Hall8ween: The Homecoming. Nothing is set
in stone.
AICN
today posted news that Jamie Lee Curtis has already completed
her part in the movie. The following contains SPOILERS! The
scooper over at Aint It Cool is saying that Jamie Lee Curtis
filmed scenes for Halloween 8 after wrapping Halloween H20.
And to get around the fact that she killed Myers in that movie,
the scooper had this to say; "Curtis has somehow cut the
head off of the wrong guy (!) and Myers is actually driving
the ambulance. Within the first two minutes of the film, Curtis'
character is killed by Michael. This was intended to shock
audiences in much the same way PSYCHO did when Janet Leigh
- Jamie Lee Curtis' mother - died early in the film. In fact,
Steve Miner directed the opening scenes of HALLOWEEN 8 after
wrapping H20. So, in short, Jamie Lee Curtis is not do any
new scenes". Since posting this story the official site
emailed AICN to say that Curtis has not even begun work on
the movie yet, so all of the above could just boil down to
a rumour. Lets wait and see. Anyway, read
the full article over at Aint It Cool.
