Carpenter has given his official stamp of approval to Green and McBride’s Halloween, and will even compose the movie’s original score.
It was revealed in Halloween 2 that Laurie was actually the sister of Michael Myers, which perhaps explained his eagerness to destroy her.
Laurie Strode doesn’t even know that Michael Myers exists until the last minutes of the movie.
John Carpenter also objected to Zombie’s version of Michael Myers, saying he thought Zombie gave Myers too much backstory, and ruined the character’s mystique.
