The first trailer for Blumhouse's Halloween revival (it's technically not a reboot, but a direct sequel to John Carpenter's original) is now online, and it really is as intense and terrifying as we'd been led to believe.
The story picks up 40 years after the first film, with Michael Myers making his escape from a mental hospital after a bit of very foolish taunting from a film crew. Then, we cut to Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) who has been waiting for the day the masked maniac made his way back to Haddonfield so she can finish him off for good.
As great as this looks, the premise really doesn't seem all that different from Halloween H2O, so hopefully there's a few originals twists and turns that aren't signposted in this teaser.
At any rate, have a look, and let us know what you think.
