HALLOWEEN: Revisited "Fan Film" ( 2006) Even More of the Night He Came Home

"THE FAN FILM THAT ALMOST WAS" ... ...This is a Fan Film I shot and co-directed with John Slade back in 2006. We shot this for $500 on one of JVC's very first 24P HD cameras, well before the DSLR/ RED revolution. This film along with four other "Fan Films" were slated to be attached ( As Extras) to a "NATIONAL" Re-Release of H1. This idea was spear- headed by Halloweenmovies.com and we had to sign releases for everyone and everything. The studio, in the end, unfortunately opted to go with the typical interviews (as extras)- that we've seen a million times before instead of showcasing what the die hard fans were doing ??? WTF??? We had a blast for a budget of $500 and a lot of help by current industry Pros. Over the years other fans have given us HUGE props to what we did and we even got into the Cucalorus Film Festival in 2006. http://www.cucalorus.org NOTE: This is Heartbreaking !! The Mask that I used in the Title Intro was a "Shatner 98" mask that I had converted years before - Unfortunately that mask was lost/ stolen right after we shot that sequence ( on a real Pee Wee Dolly-NOT A ZOOM!!!) I had to resort to a hand made mask "Samhain" from Mask Maker Productions that I further modified with more weathering and totally different hair. Considering the Rush / Panic to get a decent mask for the shoot, it turned out decent enough and looks totally bad ass in some shots! Also Note: We scanned parts of this HD footage on to a 35mm Film Print to see how well the camera held up on the big screen--It looked amazing !! The film stars Ashley Novasad, and Michael Harrington and Co-Director John Slade, who put his best “slash” forward to nail down “The Shape” a.k.a Michael Myers.
