The hook of the movie blends the new wave of true-crime documentary case solving (so popular on streaming platforms now) with the classic aesthetic of John Carpenter’s original.
In the process of researching and filming their true-crime doc, they encounter Michael in the high-security hospital that has detained him since the events of the first movie.
We meet a documentary crew who is heading back to Illinois to profile Laurie and her family 40 years after the attack by Michael Myers.
And, in the yard of the facility, they present Michael with a gift… his original mask.
