Halloween: The Face of Michael Myers “Prelude” trailer is now available on YouTube-Indiegogo coming soon!-Fitz of Horror Sneak Peek
Bryan Fitzgerald (Fitz of Horror) October 24, 2018
With an extremely intriguing “Prelude” trailer, Halloween: The Face of Michael Myers, Directed by Stephen Wolfe, looks like a very well done fan film. From the looks of the trailer, Michael Myers is more of an apparition that takes hold of a host body to wreak havoc once more. This sounds a lot like where Adam Marcus took the Friday the 13th franchise 25 years ago with Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday. Luckily Marcus has paved a road where this kind of premise will be more accepted than it once was, giving Wolfe a great opportunity to create a new and uncharted territory for Michael Myers.
With the talented and menacing Vincente DiSanti (Never Hike Alone, The Spirit of Haddonfield) playing Michael Myers and producing, this is sure to be a slashers dream!
This trailer is just a peek at what this film can be so be sure to check out the upcoming Indiegogo campaign to help make it a reality either by donating to or just sharing it!
