“Ten Times the Kills”: ‘Halloween Kills’ Officially Rated R for “Strong Bloody Violence Throughout”!
David Gordon Green had recently promised that Halloween Kills will feature “twice the thrills and ten times the kills” of Halloween 2018, and that promise is indeed reflected in the MPA’s official rating that’s just been turned in. It of course comes as zero surprise that next year’s sequel has been rated “R,” but it’s interesting to note that it’s a bit harder than 2018’s “R.”
Whereas Halloween 2018 was rated “R” for “Horror violence and bloody images, language, brief drug use and nudity,” Halloween Kills has been Rated “R” for the following…
“Strong bloody violence throughout, grisly images, language and some drug use.”
You can check out this past October’s latest teaser trailer below, while we wait for more.
The cast includes Jamie Lee Curtis, Judy Greer, Andi Matichak and Robert Longstreet, with original Halloween actor Charles Cyphers returning as Sheriff Leigh Brackett.
Anthony Michael Hall also stars in the new film as Tommy Doyle, with the returning Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace and Nancy Stephens as Nurse Marion Chambers.
Gordon Green wrote the script with Danny McBride and Scott Teems.
The current release date for Halloween Kills is October 15, 2021, only in theaters.
Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.
THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”
You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.
The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.
More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
