John Carpenter’s Halloween, Halloween 4 & Halloween 5 Return to the Drive-In (List Updated 10/9/2020)

by

You’ve seen Halloween, but have you ever experienced it as many first did in 1978, at a drive-in? Well, now you can, because John Carpenter’s seminal 1978 classic is returning to drive-ins through October 31, along with Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers and Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, and here’s how you can request your local drive-in to screen them!

Speaking with HalloweenMovies.com, Halloween (2018) and Halloween Kills producer Ryan Freimann offered of the news, “Trancas International Films and Compass International Pictures have partnered with CineLife Entertainment® in order to bring Halloween to audiences safely during this time of pandemic, and drive-in theater owners seem excited to be booking it as the Halloween season is right around the corner.”

Having premiered in cinemas and on drive-in screens on October 25, 1978, John Carpenter’s Halloween changed the landscape of horror cinema, stunning audiences worldwide and inspiring countless films in the genre. For the 2020 drive-in engagement, the digital print of Halloween has been restored and remastered under the supervision of cinematographer Dean Cundey.
