Halloween (2018)

With the new Halloween movie less than 3 weeks away, it's all starting to finally feel real. From the chilling first trailer to the intensity of Jamie Lee Curtis in the second trailer, fans of the franchise have much to look forward to on October 19th. If this isn't enough for you, EW has just released the first clip directly from the movie showing a scene featuring Laurie Strode battling it out with Michael Myers.

Terror is real in this new footage and it's got all of the trademarks of a classic Halloween installment, from the John Carpenter soundtrack to the raw intensity of The Shape's brutal attack at the end. YouTube channel The Shape Lurks has helpfully uploaded the new clip so we have that embedded above for your viewing pleasure. Check it out if you haven't already.

Halloween sees Jamie Lee Curtis return to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago. The film also stars Judy Green (Ant-Man, Jurassic World), Andi Matichak (Replicate, Orange is the New Black), Will Patton (Armageddon), and Virginia Gardner (Runaways), with Nick Castle (Escape From New York) returning as Michael Myers.

The film is directed by David Gordon Green and will release on October 19th.
