Blumhouse’s Halloween Kills had its first test screening this past Thursday night for an audience of around 200 moviegoers. And today we have some non-spoiler details.
We can’t guarantee the following info via Dark Universe is 100% legitimate, so keep that in mind.
Here are a few talking points:
- The eerie blue lighting is back.
- One major character returns.
- Michael Myers is ultra-violent and brutal.
- The flashback scenes are incredibly well done.
- The movie is like Halloween on acid. It’s balls to the wall crazy.
- The movie has some great callbacks to past Halloween films but remains original.
- The mask used for the Halloween 78 flashback scenes is going to have fans going bonkers.
Also, a Dark Universe source said: “The flashback sequence (it’s beefy, but never overstays its welcome – about seven-ten minutes) genuinely impresses, adds to the original in a meaningful way while contextualizing its place in the H’18-Kills cannon. It’s surprisingly emotional.”
