Dimension Films has selected "House of 1000 Corpses" & "The Devil's Rejects" director Rob Zombie to inject new life into its long-running "Halloween" slasher film franchse reports the trades. Zombie will write, direct and serve as music supervisor on the film due out next Halloween, some 29 years after John Carpenter unleashed the original story of Michael Myers.
A prequel/remake of sorts rather than another sequel, Zombie aims to return the core tale of Myers and explore the origin of the pale-masked man who massacred his family and pursued his sister through a number of sequels. The purpose is to essentially make the story scary again in the vein of the original film which Zombie, and many film fans and critics, hold in the highest of esteem.
To that end Zombie met with Carpenter before signing on and apparently the director was very supportive of what Zombie is planning.
