Now a release date has been set for late July 2005. (Which obviously never happened) Also the working title is HalloweeN: Family Reunion. A lot of people working with the script hate this title so it is proberly going to change.

David Loomis, since his father�s death has been working at Smiths grove. He took over his father�s files except the files of Michael A. Myers, which were kept hidden. When suddenly the body of John Tate is found, rumours fly that Michael has returned to Haddonfield. Loomis receives a phone call asking for Dr. Sam Loomis, the caller only to find that his son has taken over. Unaware that David has been not been told of Michael Myers infamous reign of terror, the caller tells all. In force, David finds his fathers files on Myers and discovers the last 25 years of the Myers saga. Eager to fulfil his father�s wishes, David goes to Haddonfield, to wait for Michael.

This source states to have come into ownership of a "pink" draft of Halloween 9.

Halloween 9 will go the same way as Halloween 4 as in it doesn't negate anything in the previous movies, but It's still a completely seperate entry. No Thorn, No Laurie (although she does partly drive the story) No Busta Rhymes. The story is about Judith Myers and a secret about her. The Main Character(s) are a 16 year Old Kid called Nathan, His Mom Kathyrn, His Best Friend Ashley and The Town Sheriff.

Basically a Movie is being shot in Haddonfield (there's always a movie nowdays in Horror Movies) about the Myers killings. The Director wants to shoot scenes and pick up shots in the Actual Haddonfield, and The Town, who don't exactly rake in much tourist dough, are convinced to allow them to shoot, for a price.

The Myers House is back, or rather, a setof The Myers house which they have built righton Top of the ruines of The Original House.

Expect a slightly New Look for Michael as the Mask has been redesigned for the movie with it now being white, with red streaks of Blood splatter across it. Naturally, Michael steals the New protomask and uses it in his New killing spree, but Michael now walks around the town un-noticed as everyone assumes it's just a guy from the Movie. There's also a scene where Michael comes face to face.....with Michael Myers. Poor stunt Guy!

Turns out there's A detective in Town(basically the Loomis role) who is currently investigating the Death of one, Laurie Strode, and his search has Led him to Haddonfield and Michael Myers (due to the webcam broadcast). He butts heads with The Local Sheriff, who is currently dating Nathan's Mom (which pisses Nathan off). This is where Judith comes in as The Detective say's that he can't find anything about Judith's Mysterious trip when she was 14.

SPOILER Basically, turns out Myers has got a New set of Relatives. Yep. Nathan is Myers Great Nephew as Judith became pregnant with His Mother, Kathyrn, but was sent out of the country so not to shame the Family with a 14 year old pregnant daughter.END SPOILER

This is revealed when Nathan and Ashley uncover a secret wing to The Haddonfield Police station which even the Police department didn't know about. Secret Files reveal that Kathyrn (who is killed mid-way through the movie) was Myer's Niece.

Best Thing about the screenplay is The Atmosphere of the Movie. There are a few 'Scream-esque' bits that aren't to my liking, but what sets the Movie apart (and makes it out to be like part 4,my favourite entry) Is the atmosphere of The Town when they find out Myers is actually back.

Michael slaughters most of the Film crew (they damn well better do these fucking scenes justice because they rock), Add to the fact that Nathan is running around the Town aimless SPOILER* He finds his Mother gutted in His house and runs*END*, It's raining down a flood, they're a vigalanteegroups Hunting Myers (As well as every cop in Haddonfield)and all of The Movie sets, Props, etc are still around the Town making everyone question what is real and what is not.

A Final confrontation happens at 'Smith Grove'and there is even a cute (but small) injoke to The Thorn Plot (Nathan has the symbol on his wrist, but everyone thinks it's a Tattoo) but it's a throw away reference and Nathan's response to wether he wants to be taken to Haddonfield Memorial after his confrontation with Myers is priceless.

Movie Ends *SPOILER* as Nathan walks up to his bedroom, looks out the window and surveys the Dozens of Police cars and Reporters on the street, He goes to lie in his bed, turns off the light and reflected in The long Mirror beside his bed Is Myers.*END SPOILER*

Its been reported that Jake Wadewall (Next Door, When a Stranger Calls) is currently writing the script. I guess that further verifies that the film wont come out until next year.

Latest news I heard on Halloween 9 was that Kevin Williamson, creator/writer of Scream, I Know What you did Last Summer and Dawsons Creek will be directing Halloween 9. I don't know if this is official but as soon as I hear something I'll let you know.

There's been rumors going around that Halloween 9 has stopped production and will no longer be made. I just want to clarify that these rumors are just rumors and Halloween 9 is still in production and will be made. A release date is still unknown and the July 2005 release date looks like it won't be happening.. Here is the official word from UHM.com

Creature Corner spoke with Halloween producer Malek Akkad about all these rumors floating around the net saying another Halloween isn't happening since nothing has officially been posted for a long time. He replied saying that it IS happening, and it's only delayed due to the recent Miramax/Dimension split. Either way, it still looks like it wont be out for a while.

Not sure whether any of these are true or not.

-Retribution Rumor
From the source (dark-universe.com), they say that some fresh sub-plots will be added into into the movie, along with Myers returning to his old school days stalking the babysitter. With this, it is added Loomis' son will make an appearance to investagate his father's murder. Surprisingly there is even mention some of "Evil Jamie" making an appearance, which intersting to hear. So far this is the most credible source for the new sequel; This idea is one of the best I've heard. 

-Halloween Prequel Rumor
To occur between Halloween II and Halloween IV, however, further details are unknown.

-Halloween Movie Spin Rumor
Well the word is that someone wants to base a movie off the horrors of Michael Myers and this angers Michael to the core. So what does he do? He slices himself a role as the slasher and takes care of business!
