THE LAST HALLOWEEN
The Death Of Michael Myers
A WORD FROM CHRIS R. NOTARILE
This movie is officially my last horror fan film. I made this film for several reasons. The first being that since 1998, I had been campaigning to redirect Halloween. And in 2005 I got pretty close. But as luck would have it, a series of very unfortunate events happened and the powers that be took away my dream project. Eventually, the Weistiens bought out the rights to Halloween and tossed it in the lap of Rob Zombie and well, the rest is history. But my story on the other wasn't over. I was rooting for Rob's Halloween in the beginning, but I still don't think it's going to be a movie that I'm going to like. I feel in general that the Halloween franchise is dead and this wave of remakes isn't the brightest idea Hollywood has come out with. So in any case, I figured if I couldn't be a part of the rebirth of the Halloween franchise, I was going to put the final nail in the coffin of the old one and kill Michael Myers.
Now granted, my film is only considered a fan film and has no relevance to the actual series, but I do believe it will resinate with the fans in the Halloween community. Looking back on my previous Halloween fan films, they still to this day are widely popular and have without a doubt spawned a plethora of other Halloween VS fan film related projects. I honestly think I had a hand in all that some how. Prior to my film, The Nightmare Ends on Halloween, in 2004, there were only a handful of Halloween/horror related fan films out there. But since then, there are now countless films, and VS films.
So anyhoo, keeping all that in mind, not being able to be part of the remake etc, I felt after 3 years I should take one more "stab" at Halloween. My equipment is much more advanced, my skills are more refined and in general, I'm a much better filmmaker now than I was when I started. On a side note, the actor doing the voice over in my film is Tom Kane. You may remember Tom's performance as the Dr.Loomis voice over at the beginning of Halloween H20. I feel that because I got him, my film now has more credibility to it than if persay, I did the voice over myself. I think that even though it still is and probably will always be considered a fan film, the fact that I got such a professional voice actor who was already associated with the franchise, definitely makes my film stand apart from the rest. And that's really cool.
