I watch it for drunk-off-his-ass Loomis.

Cookie Woman is iconic. I hope she makes an appearance in Kills and/or Ends.

One thing Halloween 5 has that the other sequels don’t is Michael playing with his victim like in the original when he puts on a sheet and Bob’s glasses. Halloween 5 is the only other film that retains this.

I'm wondering why they cut it off at 5. Usually they only do 2 and 3 too with the exception of the boxset, so I'm also confused about the release of 1, 4 and 5. I'll take them though. I wonder if we can expect them to all come in Dolby Vision like I think all of their UHD releases have had so far. Pretty excited.

Paramount owns the other 3.

What do the rights currently look like for the entire franchise?

Be ahppy to clue you in:

-Halloween 1, 4, and 5 are owned by Trancas International with Lionsgate handling distribution

-Halloween II, III, Halloween 2011, Halloween Kills, and Halloween Ends are owned by Universal

-Halloween 6, H20, and Resurrection are owned by Miramax/Paramount

-Rob Zombie's Halloween 1 and 2 are owned by The Weinstein Company/Lantern (with latter film being handled on home video by Sony)

As for the artwork, I dig it. I was expecting the original artwork though, but this is a very nice surprise.

The two Rob Zombie films are actually distributed by Lionsgate now. The second film is up on streaming services with the Lionsgate logo in front of it and the existing Blu-Ray releases are OOP.

Halloween 5 4K Myers mask looks like Nic Cage to me. Saying that, I'm ok with the covers.

Guess then everything Weinstein is owned by Lionsgate now. Figures since there was that 25% stake Anchor Bay had with it, now owned by the company who acquired them.

If for whatever reason Scream wasn't able to convince Lionsgate to sublicense them, there's your idea for Lionsgate's October 4K releases.

Here are the covers for 1-5 without needing to go through Instagram.

[Show spoiler]

I mean... they're not the worst, but compared to the recent Steelbooks they put out for II and III?

I always had a soft spot for part 5 myself. I remember watching 4 and 5 back-to-back for the first time on cable one Halloween in the late 90s and I really enjoyed 5 more than 4. Took a few more years before Anchor Bay finally released the DVDs and I was able to give the movies the attention they deserve.

CrossRhodes94 · 07-05-2021, 08:51 PM

I actually prefer 5 as well! I do like 4 a whole lot! But I love part 5!
