Michael Myers to be Sans Mask for Most of ‘H2’

Hey, everybody.   Remember this pic?

When we first showed you this pic, I told you that I had my doubts as to how much what we see here was going to play into the film.   Zombie even came out and said Tyler Mane could hide the beard within the jumpsuit and behind the mask.

Well, today the truth comes out.   Ryan Rotten of Shock Till You Drop is currently doing a set report on ‘H2,’ filming in Georgia.   He spoke with makeup effect artist, Wayne Toth, and Toth had this to say:

“That’s Michael’s new look for a lot of the film. Fans will be shocked. They seem pretty responsive to it. But it’s like anything else, as long as you’re doing something cool, people get it.”

Evidently, ‘H2’ picks up two years after the events in Zombie’s first ‘Halloween.’   Michael has been living the life of a mountain man.   This is no joke.

Toth continued:

“There are a couple different versions of the mask, but none of them are the same mask from the first film. He wanted to take them a step further, even though one of them is basically supposed to be the last mask. We’ve changed it anyway. Then towards the end of the film is the current version of the mask which is a lot different from any of them we’ve seen. People are going to be surprised when they see it. It’s going to thrown the Myers fans for a loop.”

Of course, we will probably get our first glimpse of those new masks in the next couple of weeks, as the teaser for ‘H2’ is scheduled to be attached to printed of ‘Crank: High Voltage’ hitting theaters on April 17th.

This is all just more weird news from an already weird-sounding film.   My faith in Zombie and in the ‘Halloween’ franchise is holding, but it is getting more and more difficult with each new piece of information.
