‘Halloween Kills’: Fresh Look at Michael Myers from the Film’s Flashback to the 1970s

It’s no secret that Halloween Kills will feature flashbacks to the events of John Carpenter’s original Halloween, with a young Michael Myers glimpsed in the most recent trailer. The film, after all, is largely about the survivors of the original classic’s events coming together to take out Michael Myers once and for all, including Tommy Doyle and Lindsey Wallace.

Also in the mix is Lonnie Elam, being played in Halloween Kills by Robert Longstreet (“Midnight Mass”). Lonnie, a minor character from the original, will return through a flashback to his childhood as well, giving us a look at the terror he endured when he encountered Michael Myers all those years ago. And some of that footage is on display in a new featurette today.

Perhaps most notably, the flashback footage from the featurette gives us a nice clear look at “1970s Michael Myers” from Halloween Kills, which should put a smile on your face.

Halloween Kills comes to theaters and Peacock on October 15.
