Halloween’s Michael Myers Needs Facial, Settles for New Mask

Posted by Adam Sweeney (adam@filmschoolrejects.com) on January 5, 2009

Rob Zombie has his hands on a second Halloween film, and we have our hands on a picture of Michael Myers’ new mask.

Take a peek at the extremely distressed mask Tyler Mane will be wearing for Zombie’s H2 above, courtesy of ShockTillYouDrop. It definitely doesn’t have the cleaner look of the original, but getting shot in the face at point-blank range will do that to you.

There were many issues I had with Zombie’s re-imagining of Halloween, but one part I enjoyed was how Myers’ obsession with masks developed. Judging by the picture he hasn’t had much time for mask maintenance.

In Zombie’s blog he said, “”If you thought Michael was fucked before, you ain’t seen nothing yet! He is bigger, meaner and more psycho than Dr. Loomis ever thought possible.” That might be harder to envision a bigger Myers than in the first of Zombie’s Halloween installments. The guy was as big as Yao Ming. Anyway, Zombie looks to begin filming in March and we will give you the scoop on H2 as it develops.

What do you think of the mask? Are you up for a second helping of Rob Zombie’s Michael Myers?

Rob zombie fucking ruined Halloween.

Now now, six directors before him did a pretty good job of running the series into the ground.

I thought that last Halloween was one of the best ones in many years. Of course it was far from perfect but he has done more with it than anyone else has in a long time. I give Zombie credit for at least trying to do something different and refresh this franchise, he must be doing something right or he wouldn't be heading up this sequel.

I enjoyed Zombie's take on Halloween and even though I'm surprised he's signed on for a sequel I'll be there to see what he's put together.

I watched a directors cut that had hit the internet a couple weeks before the movie came out and really enjoyed it. When I took a date to go see it, it wasn't the same movie. Not even close. I ended up walking out when he starts to drown Danny Trejo. The DC bootleg was Way better.

jeff, u mean the bootleg where they shoot up myers at the very end!?!? ya that cut?!

it was really freaking lame, and lets not ferget the part of how he escapes.... (two workers at the jail open his cell and rape a chick on his bed and tease him about it) wow very clever, the version that came out to theatres was way better and way more delivered.

i think he did something with it that all the others (minus one) could not do, deliver a story about a killer and make it suspenseful.

how hard is that?!?! well they failed the last 20 frickin times haha
