- Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer, Andi Matichak, and David Gordon Green discuss the legacy of Halloween.
Scarred by the events that took place 40 years ago, Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her family once again face off with escaped serial killer Michael Myers, in David Gordon Green’s (Stronger) electrifying follow-up to the 1978 classic.
Horror's most iconic boogeyman returns in a direct continuation of John Carpenter's seminal slasher, under the auspices of Blumhouse Productions. Shirking the sequels, this latest terrifying iteration instead picks up exactly 40 years after the night serial killer Michael Myers came to Haddonfield and embarked on a killing spree that nearly claimed the life of Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis).
A profoundly traumatized Laurie has never ceased anticipating the day Michael might return. This all-consuming paranoia has left her estranged from her family, particularly from her daughter (Judy Greer, also at the Festival in Driven), whose childhood she co-opted into her obsessive rituals of preparation, and who has been determined to shelter her own daughter (Andi Matichak) from her mother's disturbing proclivities. But when a prisoner transfer goes awry the night before Halloween, Laurie's greatest fears become justified and horror comes home once again.
Much in the way Jordan Peele's comic sensibilities proved electric when applied to horror with Get Out, the keen comedic experience of writer-director David Gordon Green and his co-writers Jeff Fradley and Danny McBride similarly contributes to this film's finely tuned structure and anxious rhythms. Every nod to the series' legacy satisfies, every shocking reversal thrillingly surprises, each line of dialogue either drips with dread or crackles with fantastic wit. Most importantly, the filmmakers profoundly appreciate the ingredients that made the original so infectiously frightening. They've made the scariest slasher in years.
Sown with an affecting social undercurrent that sees three generations of women coming together to confront their abuser, anchored by Curtis in an outstanding performance that redefines and eclipses every prior permutation, and enveloped by an iconic score created by John Carpenter himself along with son Cody Carpenter, Halloween is the greatest treat the season has given horror fans since 1978.

The only person missing from this interview is Michael Myers himself.
Jamie Lee Curtis has a connection to Laurie like Sylvester Stallone has to Rocky
Lmao she acts like she wasn’t in half the series.
"pretending to be Laurie Strode again", Jamie you are Laurie.
RIP Donald Pleasance
I really don’t like this new director
I think idea shape picked Laurie randomly is so much more better and cooler thing than brother sister clichee. I think John Carpenter was pressured create some motive . This movie respect John original idea. No motive, no explanations, just pure evil.
Maybe Micheal is mad because Lori father was selling his house 😁
Their comment about Final Girls and trauma, I think Scream did it first with Sidney Prescott.
Andi Matichak is gorgeous...
Honestly, Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger and Jason paved the way!
Andi Matichak is stunning.

The reason Laurie was so scared in H20 was because she was dealing with the events of not only Halloween 1, but also Halloween 2 when she was in Hospital recovering. Even if they took away the sibling aspect, being stalked while you're in hospital recovering would mess you up for life, so her fear in H20 was more than justified. Since this only takes place after H1 which was a traumatic event alone, it would definitely scar someone, but nowhere near the degree of H20 Laurie. I absolutely loved the final act in H20 when Laurie is basically like 'No More' and lets her son drive away while she finally chases Michael down. That 'MICHAEL' line of dialogue where Laurie shouts his name is still one of the best lines I've ever heard in a Halloween movie.
The girl playing Allyson is so fine
Jamie OMG thank you for being in this movie. It can’t be Halloween with out you. Ya the queeen.
It’s such an honor, to hear Jamie Lee Curtis and the Director speaking so well about horror.
Jamie Lee Curtis Should be in the Hall of fame of horror
Halloween 2018 is one of the very best Halloween movies ever
Is that the carpet from the Overlook Hotel from The Shining?
