Shout! Factory has announced a spectacular lineup of new 4k releases of HALLOWEEN through HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS available as stand-alone discs or a boxed set with exclusive vinyl. HALLOWEEN 4: THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS and HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS feature the commentary tracks featuring my discussions with director Dwight Little (4) and The Shape actor Don Shanks (5) that first appeared on the 2012 Blu-rays of each. These were early productions for me when Reverend Entertainment was new, and a blast to be part of. Such great conversations with Dwight and Don. I am delighted to see they continue to live on in new releases. Pre-orders are now open at ShoutFactory.com. All are available September 28.
HALLOWEEN 4: THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS
Synopsis
He Changed The Face Of Halloween. Tonight, He’s Back …
He butchered 16 people trying to get to his sister. He was shot and incinerated, but still the entity that Dr. Sam Loomis (the legendary Donald Pleasence) calls “Evil on two legs” would not die. Tonight, Michael Myers has come home again … to kill! This time, Michael returns to Haddonfield for Jamie Lloyd (Danielle Harris, 2009’s Halloween II, The Last Boy Scout) – the orphaned daughter of Laurie Strode – and her babysitter Rachel (Ellie Cornell, Halloween 5: The Revenge Of Michael Myers, House Of The Dead). Can Loomis stop Michael before the unholy slaughter reaches his innocent young niece?
Michael Pataki, Sasha Jenson and Kathleen Kinmont co-star in this smash sequel that marked the long-awaited return to the original storyline and remains infamous for its startling twist ending and graphic violence.

But Dr. Loomis (the legendary Donald Pleasence) has a new plan to destroy The Boogey Man in his childhood home using Jamie as bait.
