I brought this up in the Halloween preservation thread, but for those of you that don't read the preservation board, Halloween Producer Moustapha Akkad was killed in the Jordan hotel bombings, along with his daughter.

He was resonsible for bankrolling John Carpenter's original Halloween, and kept the franchise alive all these years.

If you've ever watched a documentary on the films, you will know who he is.

Sucks, doesn't it?
