Sci-Fi Bulletin: Exploring the Universes of SF, Fantasy, Horror and Spy-fi!

The rebooted Halloween franchise is getting a belated third entry, with Dimension Films and Trancas International Films starting production in July on Halloween Returns.

Producer Malek Akkad noted, “The legacy of Halloween is something that Trancas is very proud of, and I look forward to working together again with Bob and Dimension to continue that tradition.” Reboot director Rob Zombie won’t be involved with this movie; Saw franchise veterans Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton are penning the script, with Dunstan directing.

As yet no details of the plot have been revealed, although it is highly unlikely that it will follow the route of the original movies and feature a very different take on Halloween for its third entry.
