First look at Michael's new mask for H2.
Rob Zombie updated his MySpace blog with a sneak preview of Michael Myers' new mask. Keep in mind that this isn't the finished product.
Wondering if the huge hole on the side (temple area) is where he was shot?

Re: First look at Michael's new mask for H2.
Has anybody ever said why the mask is different in every sequel/remake?
Why didn't they keep on using the Shatner mask throughout the series?

Legal reasons mostly. Don Post made the original Shatner mask and apparently he got into a legal battle with Trancas about the use of the mask in the films.

Re: First look at Michael's new mask for H2.
The only movie that makes sense for there to be a new mask though is "Halloween 4" because it is a new mask. Maybe "H20" too since we assume it is new since he "blew up" in Halloween II.
But in all the other sequels, it is supposed to be the same mask as the previous movie. The dumbest looking mask so far is the one in "Halloween 5".

I don't like this design. It looks too much like a real monster rather than a mask. I really loved the sterile, emotionless look of the original Halloween mask. This one tries to hard to be scary.

I've felt that the original mask was perfect. It had no emotion at all. Which was perfect because there was no motive (original concept) as to why Michael escaped and decided to go "trick or treating".

Yeah, the mask in the remake had kind of an "angry" look to it. I liked when the original because it had a "blank" look toit which made it much scarier.
