Looks good, the teeth dropping part was something a bit different. Always liked these movies though the rebooted ones were a bit hit or miss, first one was ok second one may as well have been a Jason Voorhees movie with his mother telling him what to do, plus having him be that tall didn't suit the character really.

Ahhhhh cant wait, By far my favourite horror movies, the missus hates the look of him so it will be nice to take her to the cinema to watch this 
That looks surprisingly good, I had my reservations when this was announced.
One important thing that most folks won't be aware of is this is a sequel to the first Carpenter movie and ignores all of the sequels and the Zombie reboots.

Well that was pretty obvious seeing as it says in the trailer he's been in prison for 40 years
Nick Castle is again playing Myers but only in a few parts of the movie, another actor is doing most of the myers acting, never realised Castle is 70.

Huge Halloween fan here. The original is about as good as it gets in respect of pure horror.
Some of the sequels were also enjoyable.
So yeah pumped for this....if they manage to bring it back to its roots.
Halloween 2 was pretty good but to go with the new storyline here it's hard to put Myers in prison after had the living **** blown out of him at the end of it. So yeah I understand why they have gone with this one.

Re-watching the trailer it looks like they've reset the whole thing so Halloween 2 onward never took place - in the opening part of the trailer the guy says he killed three innocent teenagers and was shot by his psychiatrist before being taken into custody "that night". Nothing mentioned about being blown up or any further deaths. They also explained away how he survived the gunshots (the doctors medical notes seems to show entry wounds nowhere near vital organs, like in the shoulders - which isn't exactly what happened in the original movie) and those other teenagers debunking the "myth" that Myers was Laurie Strode's brother.
That said - I liked the trailer and looking forward to seeing it.

Most of that was already mentioned above in regard to what the movie ignores, this is a sequel to the first movie that ignores the original sequels. Laurie Strode being Myers Sister was also something that was put in place in Halloween 2 so that's also no longer a factor in this.

yup, hairs stood on my arms soon as it started to playThat music is still as chilling as it ever was

Looks good, better than Ghostbusters 3
A movie about someone getting a boot in the knackers would be infinitely better than gb3.
yeah, he played it live on his tour, takes on a totally different power, absolute classic of a piece of music.That music is still as chilling as it ever was

I watched the original on release alongside The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue, another classic horror film . I don't think the original Halloween has been matched for the tension it creates and, along with the score, makes it one of my favourite films.

What do you find wrong with this trailer exactly? Its been well received by even the hardcore fans from what ive seen.
