Cuts removed/added/extended :

The following changes are from changes from my first Halloween: A Night in Haddonfield. Unfortantaly, this first version is no longer being offered.

1) The biggest change is that I fixed the format, now it is in 16x9 and it doesn't look sretched.
2) The opening/credits has changed (again), but only slightly
3) I used the the extended movie (uncut) up to where we see Jamie Lee is school. There I switch to the original movie.
4) I removed the ended where we see the different places that Michael has been, and jumped right in to Halloween II.
5) Here is where the main edits come from. I have removed the first death scene of that girl in the house talking on the phone. I felt there was no need for it.
6) I have removed the scene of that little girl and here mom haveing the cut in the mouth (slowed the movie down)
7) I removed all scenes of Jamie Lee and that EMT, execpt the last one near the end in the car.
8] A new ending (different from my first edit) this ending fits the triolgy better. I used the ending from "Halloween: Resurrection" of Michael in the morgue.

Extras: No room for extras

Conceptual improvements/advancements of edit over original:

I am a big fan of the Halloween movies. And I have always wanted to have a long version of Halloween. Seeing what ADM did, and after trying out my editing skills on my DS9 edit, I think this edit is the best I have done! I have found no errors in it at all. And everything flows together. Now, since I got these two "practice" edits out of the way, I am going to start on my Star Trek: Borg edition
