Deleted HALLOWEEN Scene Takes Inspiration From Hitchcock Classic
Ahead of its home video release, a deleted scene from Blumhouse’s Halloween has been released and it pays homage to Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic and groundbreaking film Psycho, long thought to be the first slasher film ever released. I won’t spoil anything else, so you’ll just have to watch the clip above to see for yourself what it’s all about!
“Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.”
Halloween was directed by David Gordon Green, who co-wrote the film with Danny McBride. It starred Jamie Lee Curtis, Nick Castle, Will Patton, Andi Matichak, and Judy Greer. John Carpenter acted as composer, alongside his son Cody and musical partner Daniel Davies, as well as executive producer.
