Sam Loomis’ Psychiatric Evaluation of Michael Myers Revealed

by

Following the arrival of detectives Fitz and Matt to Marion Crane’s ransacked office in Steve Miner’s 1998 hit Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later, the subsequent opening credit montage features shots of the items which adorn its walls: newspaper clippings, sketches of escaped murderer Michael Myers, and a psychiatric evaluation of the same, written by deceased Dr. Samuel Loomis. But what was in that medical report?

According to the fine print in the screen-sued evaluation, Loomis had initially requested shock treatment for his young ward in the Warren County Sanitarium document, in addition to lamenting that, “It is extremely unfortunate that this boy was not given treatment in infancy. It would be regarded highly unlikely that any such treatment would be of minor significance.”

A Look at Trick or Treat Studios’ Officially Licensed Halloween Merchandise for 2019!

by

Sometimes the caliber of Halloween product development gets us truly abuzz here at HalloweenMovies.com, and such is the case with the awe-inspiring 2019 catalog recently released by Trick or Treat Studios (which marks their first time releasing product in connection with the original 1978 film Halloween and its sequels, 1988’s Halloween 4 and 1989’s Halloween 5). And while we can’t reveal everything they have in store for the year at present, we can give you a look at some products currently available for pre-order, and a few that aren’t!

Chock full of Officially Licensed Halloween franchise goodness, Trick or Treat Studios product for this year includes a new Halloween ’78 inspired Myers mask (sculpted by legend Justin Mabry) and a bevy of costumes from the film, including affordable takes on the Young Myers Clown, Adult Myers and Ghost Myers, as well as Dr. Samuel Loomis and Laurie Strode getups. Joining them are props, enamel pins, and even a life-sized poseable Myers (just to make sure you scare those trick or treaters come October).

Also currently available for pre-order are brand new Myers masks stemming from the entire film franchise (including the “The Brute” mask from Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers – deep cut, guys!), new costumes (Jamie Lloyd’s Clown costume, anyone?) and so much more.

Because in keeping with the theme, Trick or Treat Studios has also developed Halloween franchise wall décor through the beloved prism of Vintage Beistle (you know, the company that manufactures those amazing and Halloween decorations from the 20’s through 50’s), and while it’s not available just yet for pre-order on TOTS’ website, you can get a peek below.

All we can say is, “There go our paychecks.”

“It Needs to Die!” Halloween ‘True Crime’ Clips Come Home

by

“My suggestion is termination. There’s nothing to be gained by keeping evil alive.”

Ahead of this Friday’s release of David Gordon Green’s feature film Halloween on October 19th, Universal Pictures has released a couple of compelling ‘true crime’ clips heralding the film’s debut – one of which contains a dire warning from Dr. Sam Loomis. Read on for a look.


The eleventh film in the franchise, co-written by director David Gordon Green, Danny McBride and Jeff Fradley, Halloween is intended as a direct sequel to John Carpenter’s 1978 classic of the same name, and thusly disregards all of the series subsequent entries. Trancas International Films’ Malek Akkad, Blumhouse’s Jason Blum and Bill Block produce, with McBride, Green and star Jamie Lee Curtis serving as executive producers, along with Ryan Freimann and series originator Carpenter, who also serves as the film’s composer.
