Even with Rob Zombie's sequel to his remake of HALLOWEEN on the horizon, interest in the original John Carpenter classic has not diminished! Don May Jr. of Synapse Films found a slew of original dailies from the original HALLOWEEN with tons of outtakes, alternate footage and even some deleted scenes. There's been no word on how or when us die-hard Michael Myers fans are going to get a chance to see this stuff... well, until now. There's a slight update over on FANGORIA's website today, along with a bunch of cool screengrabs of some of the cataloged footage. Check it HERE or by clicking the teaser images below:

As of now, there are no immediate plans to release a new updated DVD release of the original HALLOWEEN, but hopefully this article will help generate the interest, because I know I would want to see this stuff! Hell, checking out the alternate takes on the FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE FINAL CHAPTER DELUXE DVD was a dream come true for me as a fan. Like a lot of you out there, I've seen these movies a million times growing up. It's an incredible thrill to be able to see alternate angles and unused shots from a movie I know so intimately. Check out the full story on the HALLOWEEN "Lost Footage" on FANGORIA's site right HERE, along with thoughts from both John Carpenter and Tommy Lee Wallace. More when we hear it!
