Halloween: Origin of Evil

By Dark Jedi
What is it about? After being committed for 17 years, Michael Myers, now a grown man and still very dangerous, escapes from the mental institution (where he was committed as a 10 year old) and he immediately returns to Haddonfield, where he wants to find his baby sister, Laurie. Anyone who crosses his path is in mortal danger.

How to get it? via RAPIDSHARE(DL version) & TORRENT(SL version) for more info PM me or go to Fanedit.org

Your intention for this fanedit:

To make it a little more realistic,and to add some more character to Dr. Loomis,plus I just like it this way.

Additional Comment:

Personally I like ALL the Halloween movies,I am just a HUGE fan,but this version I did I like the most,some scenes just were not needed,like most of the first half,the begining story was long enough in my opinion,except for the reporter harrasing Deborah Myers,I felt this scene was needed.

Time needed for the edition: 2 weeks

Not watched this yet so I can't comment on the edit, but I'd just like to say it's good to see after all your great preservation projects you're now expanding your horizons!

What software did you use for the editing, Womble, Vegas, or something else?

I've now downloaded this, but it might be while before I get to watch it (for the reasons I mentioned in my PM to you).

Surprised that no-one else has posted feedback yet. The torrent at TPB was reasonably active, so people are grabbing it.

Thanks M,
looking forward to your comments,whether good or bad.

and I have come to expect no comments from here now,maybe there is just no interest in this title,or that it is a fan edit.

I'd have thought there would be more interest, as there are quite a few Halloween fans who post here.

Been trying to dl this from a torrent site for a week now, only at 30% - hopefully it'll pickup.  I'll give you some insight once it is finished dling.  Also, Dark_Jedi, where can I find the cover art?

Thanks for making this cut for true Halloween fans!
