**Halloween 2 (remake) updated**

Two weeks ago Dimenon Films made this major announcement where they revealed plans for 18 direct-to-disc sequels for release in 2009. Something interesting that was announced was that following a theatrical release of HALLOWEEN II - the sequel to Rob Zombie's re-envioning of Michael Myers' tale of terror created by John Carpenter - the plan is to release direct-to-disc sequels to the newly rebooted franchise. This might not be the case, read on for the skinny.

Bloody-Disgusting's BC was on hand at this weekend's Halloween: 30 Years of Terror convention in Pasadena, CA where HALLOWEEN Producer Malek Akkad, son of Moustapha Akkad, revealed to attendees that any-and-all sequels will be theatrically released, contrary to initial reports.

It was also revealed that the sequel will begin directly after Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN and that Tyler Mane will return as Michael.

Thats good news.

I am glad they have Tyler on board for this.

I actually liked his representation of Myers.

any news on when this might happen?

any news on when this might happen?

Rumor is they start shooting Feb. 09

cool, Id like to see a sequel but I dont know about it being direct to disc

Man, I think this is gonna suck... I don't like the remakes. H1 from Rob Zombie, for me, isn't good enough, bedes, he destroyed the real image of Michael Myers, showing him as a disturbed boy nothing but normal, that we saw every day on the streets... I hope he could fix it with this remake...
