Nah that wouldn't work because Micheal is pure "Evil" he would just stab the sun to death.

I actually liked the first five films in the franchise........I know my taste is horrible.

But I agree with the people who think they need to re-imagine the franchise as opposed to making another sequel. Actually I think John Carpenters original Idea to make the Halloween franchise a totally different story each time out would have been awesome.

I say they make Halloween in Space have NOTHING to do with Michael Myers. Instead, have NASA buy some fancy new spacesuit helmets from a little company by the name of Silver Shamrock. Then, right as they are getting ready to take off, over the speakers we hear "10 more seconds 'til lift off, 'til lift off, 10 more seconds 'til lift off, til lift off...SILVER SHAMROCK".

Craziness follows.

Friday the 13th part 6 is really the only good entry in the series. Why? Because it's the only one that realized how stupid these films are, and plays almost more like a spoof than a serious jason film. It is entertaining and it works. Jason X is pretty lame by the way.

I remember reading an interview with Doug Bradley about ten years ago. And he brought up his fears on a Myers vs. Pinhead movie since the same company owned both characters. Yet he keeps doing every damn hellraiser film that comes his way.

I didn't even know they were up to a Hellraiser 7 or 8 until I was in Target the other day and saw Hellraiser: Deader. Talk about squeezing money out of a franchise.

Why don't we just finally have Ash vs Michael vs Jason vs Freddy vs Leprechaun vs Pinhead vs Leatherface on a space station with a bunch of scantily clad teenaged astronauts.

How about Alien, but in space?!!
um... sorry

This is a horrible idea. In my opinion Halloween 1,2, and H20 are the only good ones. I would have liked it though if they did do Carpenters idea to do a different story each time.

Akkad has just buried Halloween with his stupidity. Halloween should have ended with the first sequel. But having said that, even the bad Halloween films are better than the Friday the 13th garbage. I honestly have never enjoyed a single Friday the 13th film. Even though Halloween has sucked of late, it's art design, production values, and acting has always been a notch or two above the Friday series, though that's not saying much.

At least Halloween can claim the classic original and the good first sequel. The 4th Halloween film was pretty good with some very good atmosphere. Friday can't claim much period.

It can claim a higher body count.

Why did they still want to milk this franchise?
Why don't they just make him part of the cast of the next Surreal life?

It would be nice to have one set in the 1700 or 1800s. Maybe with Johnny Depp in it as an opium-addicted detective who has unconventional means of detective work so he goes to a sleepy upstate New York town where people find him to be a possibly gay pirate.

Man I hope that's true. Just for the inevitable creative gore. Though I've yet to see a Japanese director that was able to get good acting out of english actors. But being this is Halloween > 1, it'll work either way.

David Mamet? WTF

That IMDB listing is bogus -- David Mamet? That's like when they had Uwe Boll listed as the Halo director.

Even crazier is Miike as the director. There's no way.

Hell, they could do no worse than they've done with Friday the 13th. Every single film in that franchise is sh*t. But they keep on making them.

It's actually somewhat believable to me, since his English-language directorial debut premieres on Showtime in a few weeks.

It's not real. They previously listed Oliver Stone and "Mike Hunt" (OMG LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!) as directors. The IMDb has become absolutely useless for info on upcoming films -- any halfway-anticipated film that's more than a year or two away is practically guaranteed to fall victim to the new sport of choice among IMDb users, "see who can get the dumbest and/or most unlikely credit past the site's nonexistent screening process."

Am I the only one here who loves bad horror movie sequels?

Halloween 9 in Space?? YAY! I can't wait!

some people take this stuff too seriously

I tivoed part 4 and 5 over the weekend. Boy they should have stopped after part 1. They were horrible.

I actually liked 4. I thought at least with that film, they tried to get back to the style of the original, with the creepy atmosphere. Halloween 5 was pretty much a remake of 4. Halloween 6 and 8 stunk to high heaven. Halloween 7 was pretty decent. Season of the Witch also stunk, and shouldn't have even used the Halloween name.

I think they should have stopped with Halloween II. I felt the sequel was a very worthy follow-up that finished the story well.

Halloween 4 & 5 are notable only because they were filmed in the neighborhood I was living in at the time.

Not even Carpenter liked the second movie and thought it was boring.
I liked Season of the Witch.
Here an interesting link about all the Halloween movies....

If true, which I don't agree, then he has only his writing to blame--he penned the script.
