HALLOWEEN: HOMECOMING (RESURRECTION) FAN CUT | RELEASE DETAILS<br />
Hey everyone.<br />
So some of you might remember my previous Fan Cut (ROB ZOMBIE'S HALLOWEEN FAN CUT) from back in 2018/2019. This Halloween I'm back with another, this time, for HALLOWEEN: RESURRECTION.<br />
This project has been a passion project of mine for the past 13-or-so months and is probably my most ambitious in terms of changes made, Visual Effects work and sound design. The goal of this Fan Cut was not to discredit the hard work of the original filmmakers, but try and make Resurrection more of a scarier movie, and much less of a comedy. Literally. There's ZERO comedy in this Cut from Busta or anyone.<br />
The Cut itself has MANY changes, but just to name a few…<br />
ALL of Michael's Eyes have been blacked out with VFX CGI.<br />
"Night-Vision" has now replaced all the web-cam night-time footage to give those shots a new coat of paint and fresher feeling.<br />
Fixed all the bad, choppy 24-FPS slow motion shots to be normal-speed.<br />
A ton of Busta Rhymes' scenes have been cut completely or trimmed due to their comedic nature (He's also credited by his real birth name, not his stage name BTW).<br />
Useless "Deckard" character and the party of people watching has been cut completely, making the narrative more simple.<br />
Whole new soundtrack from the likes of Danny Lux, Alan Howarth, Tyler Bates, John Carpenter and more…<br />
New colour grade in some sections. More blues, less purples. More vibrant too.<br />
New SFX/Foley work. 5.1 Surround Sound supported.<br />
Additional Remastered scenes (Deleted/Alternate Scenes from Resurrection and TV Scenes from HALLOWEEN 1978).<br />
Wholly original opening pumpkin sequence including the Myers house. 100% CGI.<br />
Over 120 VFX Shots for Michael's eyes alone, not including original VFX work or extra which was created and added by me.<br />
The project itself was primarily under development within Adobe products. But external software from Autodesk and Epic Games was used.<br />
Thanks for your support and I hope you check the Cut out and give me your thoughts/feedback when it releases tonight. Stay safe!<br />

Synopsis:<br />
Halloween Resurrection came after the success of Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later, where it appeared that Laurie Strode had once and for all destroyed infamous serial killer and her brother, Michael Myers, aka The Shape. Therefore, trying to explain away just how he could have survived such a definitive and crowd pleasing ending, was always going to put the film makers involved in another sequel in a very difficult position. That aside, Resurrection decided to kill off Laurie Strode in the first 10 minutes of the film.<br />
The rest of the film played with the concept of a media company, Dangertainment, inviting some lucky teenage entrants to try and spend a night in the house of Michael Myers, on Halloween no less. This concept, with all the web cameras etc was actually quite an intriguing one to bring to the series. However, annoying characters such as Freddie (played by Busta Rhymes) reduced the film to a bit of an embarrassment, especially when it came to poking fun at Michael and having Freddie defeat him by using his kung fu no less.<br />
Intention:<br />
Halloween Homecoming is an attempt to recut and slightly restructure the film, to give it more of a "Halloween" feel, to ensure The Shape is more terrifying and that he is never seen as a joke. Character scenes are trimmed to try and make them more likeable and Laurie Strode no longer dies at the start of the movie, ensuring that a new finale unfolds here in this edit. New music is added, there is an "alternate audio track" as well, and a brand new title sequence has been created.<br />
Happy Halloween everyone!<br />
