Hardcore fans of Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers are surely familiar with a couple of deleted scenes that have to date never been unearthed, perhaps most notably including an alternate opening wherein Michael Myers washes up at the home of a man named “Dr. Death.” Will we ever see that scene and other excised bits? Well, it seems we might!

Compass International Pictures & Trancas International Films’ official HalloweenMovies.com account tweeted today that the search through the Halloween vaults has begun for all of the infamous “lost” footage from Halloween 5! The site’s editor, Sean Decker, notes that they’re looking for it all: uncut kill scenes, the Dr. Death opening, you name it.

If the footage is there to find, these are the guys to find it, so this is needless to say a hugely exciting development. And we’ll of course update you if/when we hear more.

Meantime, stay tuned to @HalloweenMovies for updates!

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
