Check Out This ‘Halloween 6: Producer’s Cut’ Poster for Upcoming 35mm Screening

Published

There was a time when you had to buy a bootleg if you wanted to see the so-called “Producer’s Cut” of 1995’s Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers, which includes 70-minutes of alternate, unedited footage as well as an alternate ending. But that changed in 2015 with Lionsgate’s official release of the Producer’s Cut on Blu-ray.

Now, Halloween fans in New York can see the Producer’s Cut of Halloween 6 on the big screen later this month, as Retro Picture Show is hosting an incredibly rare 35mm screening of the alternate cut at the Cinema Arts Centre in Huntington, New York on Friday night, September 29!

To promote the screening, an event poster, t-shirts and even temporary “Cult of Thorn” tattoos have been whipped up, and can be purchased even by those unable to attend the event. All the swag can be purchased through the Retro Picture Show website, while event tickets can be grabbed through Cinema Arts Centre.

Check out the event poster below, designed by Kyle Crawford!

Halloween 6 was directed by Joe Chappelle and stars Paul Rudd and Donald Pleasence.

‘The Invisible Man 2’ – Elisabeth Moss Says the Sequel Is Closer Than Ever to Happening

Published

on

Universal has been having a hell of a time getting their Universal Monsters brand back on a better path in the wake of the Dark Universe collapsing, with four movies thus far released in the years since The Mummy attempted to get that interconnected universe off the ground.

First was Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man, to date the only post-Mummy hit for the Universal Monsters, followed by The Last Voyage of the Demeter, Renfield, and now Abigail. The latter three films have attempted to bring Dracula back to the screen in fresh ways, but both Demeter and Renfield severely underperformed at the box office. And while Abigail is a far better vampire movie than those two, it’s unfortunately also struggling to turn a profit.

Where does the Universal Monsters brand go from here? The good news is that Universal and Blumhouse have once again enlisted the help of Leigh Whannell for their upcoming Wolf Man reboot, which is howling its way into theaters in January 2025. This is good news, of course, because Whannell’s Invisible Man was the best – and certainly most profitable – of the post-Dark Universe movies that Universal has been able to conjure up. The film ended its worldwide run with $144 million back in 2020, a massive win considering the $7 million budget.

Given the film was such a success, you may wondering why The Invisible Man 2 hasn’t come along in these past four years. But the wait for that sequel may be coming to an end.

Speaking with the Happy Sad Confused podcast this week, The Invisible Man star Elisabeth Moss notes that she feels “very good” about the sequel’s development at this point in time.

“Blumhouse and my production company [Love & Squalor Pictures]… we are closer than we have ever been to cracking it,” Moss updates this week. “And I feel very good about it.”

She adds, “We are very much intent on continuing that story.”

At the end of the 2020 movie, Elisabeth Moss’s heroine Cecilia Kass uses her stalker’s high-tech invisibility suit to kill him, now in possession of the technology that ruined her life.
