- 40 years ago, high schooler Laurie Strode faced off against murderous psychopath Michael Myers, and we've been terrified ever since.
Now that we're heading back to Haddonfield, Illinois for a new chapter of terror in "Halloween" we decided sitting down with one of the OG Scream Queens herself Jamie Lee Curtis for an episode of "Unscripted" was absolutely essential. She's joined by the two people that helped bring this latest iteration of "Halloween" to life: director David Gordon Green and super producer Jason Blum.
With such a wealth of information across the acting, directing, and producing fronts, things picked up quickly. Topics discussed include a Michael Myers crossover film, what being a "scream queen" really means, and a moving story from the set of the movie.
"Halloween" hits theaters October 19th, 2018.

Wow, it is amazing to hear Jamie Lee crack emotionally as she talks about filming this. It shows it really MEANT something to her, as it does to all of us "true" Halloween fans.
Jason Lee I think this movie is the best Halloween besides for John carpenters original one
@@nopeteys2424 agree
Really sad seeing an old hag being chased by senior citizen killer. these fan boys have no talent just steal from past films and then say they don’t exist. Shameful doing this woke shit fir money at her age especially crapenter but you fans eat this shot up
Like drug addicts just because there hadn’t been a sequel in years
These three woke films will be forgotten like the last three Star Wars crap films
Love the original Halloween, and Jamie Lee Curtis!! So happy she is in the new movie!!
I could sit and listen to Jamie talk for hours
Before i saw the first trailer, I was expecting it to look campy and just a silly remake. But the first trailer hooked me. And subsequent trailers have gotten me even more excited. I believe that this is going to be a very good movie. I can’t wait!
Damn jason is fucking JACKED
Hell yeah
I saw it last night. It’s incredible
Brandon Cluff with Jamie it is not a remake at all, it goes from 2 to now 40 years later, the rob zombie's are remakes , with h2o they are cutting that out, only did that for the 20y/reunion the busta movie Is a joke ..
I wouldn't say jacked but he looks good.
9 more days until some Laurie and Michael Myers goodness. 😀
Nine more days till Halloween.
Silver Shamrock.
@@111highgh ... Idk if im happy or kinda disappointed. I love h3 so i guess it's happy.
I tell u its great Jamie is highly excited shes dont this movie ..shes done tons of promo work for this movie. This must be the most ive ever seen her promote a movie. She must be really proud to be apart of it again
Mark Hamill and Jamie Lee Curtis are two people I could listen to for hours
God that's literally my childhood right there!! Star Wars and Halloween were soooooo HUGE for me.. Luke Skywalker and Laurie Strode are ICONS and changed things for the better in their genres
I really enjoyed this interview, thank you.
Seriously I don't think anyone cares more about this franchise more than John, Jamie, and Deborah did. Their entire careers and lives came out of this franchise and its awesome to see that they still love it to this day.
Jamie has a special message about everything that is happening in politic's today. I get it
I have a feeling that, once this promotion tour is all over, somebody is going to walk up to Jamie and say “You know, ‘trauma’ is pronounced trah-muh” then she is going to be like “Ah, shit...”
Brandon Gregory lol I wouldn't lol she looks like she can still kick ass.
*Myers Vs Bughuul* That would be insane!!!
I have my ticket. I’ve had a ticket for months. I’m so excited about this film! 😩😩😩 I wish I could have been in this movie.
Very very great interview I like it a lot I can't wait to see Halloween 2018
Thank you a lot for like my comment
Saw the movie last night....it delivers the goods
I love how when Jamie says trauma she days it like trow-ma
Jamie Lee Curtis is amazing!!!! The reviews have been incredible!!! 87 percent on Rotten Tomatoes!!! A huge box office debut for the film and it could be the first Halloween film to gross over 100 million!!! I am excited and pumped. To do a film like this takes a long time to get done. Jamie loves this film. And it is so relevant to what is going on now in society and with women who have to deal with severe trauma. Jason Blum may not be the Horror King but he has definitely changed the Horror genre. Also Jason is kind of HOT!!!!
Bernie G I agree with u, due to the trailer, i believe easy over 100 million
Bernie G. I am quite excited about the film, too. But I really don't get what you mean by it being "so relevant to what is going on now in society." Maybe I'm not looking deep enough into it.
Maybe I'm mistaken, but didn't the original gross over 100 million?
Try 200 million
@@SerlingPictures yeah it'll probably ALWAYS be the highest grossing film considering the budget was like 50,000$ lol so 80 million dollars in the first few years is 75,000,000$ profit! So because it's budget is TINY AS FUCK compared to the other movies and today's movies, it's GROSS earning will always be HUGE
With all due respect to Jason Blum, whoever calls him the “horror king” has quite a bit of research to do.
He's certainly built himself a little empire out of the genre. They ain't all gems, VERY few of them are, but he is "the guy" if you want to make a horror movie in Hollywood these days.
It's annoying. But the snobbery runs in every fan community. It doesn't even have to be something related to movies music or TV shows. People form a community, they'll find ways to be dicks about it. Doesn't matter if it's movies, knitting or cars. It's kind of our sad reality I guess.
Ray Major Nah. He was referencing the fact that he's been called "the horror king" because of his link to every successful horror movie since Paranormal Activity. He was relating to the pride of being considered genre royalty.
Maialeen He didn't say anything snobby. He just doesn't think Jason Blum is all that. Fair enough. Just because you like a number of movies in a genre doesn't mean you have to be endlessly supportive of the whole thing. You can have negative opinions about people's work. It doesn't make you a dick, you're the real dick for going there.
Nobody Special thank you.
WE LOVE YOU JAMIE !!!!! THANK YOU !!!!!
these interviews are so underrated
David Gordon Green always looks so worried
If you noticed she never mentions Halloween : Resurrection as if it never happened lol she must really hate that movie 😂
SAVINI JASON like everyone else in the world
Well she has flat out said the only reason she was in Resurrection at all was because she was under contract, she regrets being involved though.
That movie was awesome. I'm in the minority.
@@111highgh I agree Halloween 8 was entertaining
It's just a dog shit of a movie.
6:48 Jamie Lee Curtis "trowma" 😂.
When the crossover question came about regarding if Michael could do a ‘Freddy vs Jason’ movie and who would it be with, I was hoping that they said Michael vs Chucky. That would be gold!!!
Love the original one of top five favourite films! Looking forward to this 😊
if she say trowma one more time
You'll what?
Fart?
Dead af shes old let her be haha
Omg right?! Who says it like that 🤔
Lloyd Kauffman does
But it's actually "trow-mah"
I adore Jamie Lee Curtis.
She still looks GREAT!!!!
Four years ago..... one solid movie and HUGE hopes for the future. Kills came down a notch and Ends is abysmal. Where are they all now? I don't see them buddying up for the press on this one. I'm sure they're all mortified by what they've done.
if i close my eyes, jason sounds hella like chris evans lmao
I love the back ground creepy house lol
so angry that they didn't consider H20... it was AWESOME
Remember she has a son John from h20 and sadly he's forgotten with his girl they need to come back . Allyson n John are her last family roots with Karen dead. LL cool J should come in these are the last survivors now that they ruined Tommys chance of hypothetic lly taking over Fox Loomis intense desire to lock him up. Wouldn't it be weird to see Meyers die along with Laurie but bring get son John back ad a new Meyers...Someone who snaps like Laurie but with a rage to everyone who couldn't save Laurie . Or maybe Allyson becomes the first female Michael Meyers and kills for revenge but keeps on killing as her rage is so severe from all the trauma. Remember Jamie stabs her stepmother in Mikey's costume...Tho she stayed not evil I could see Allyson killing every Halloween like Laurie she sees her friends family slaughtered. Who wouldn't be screwed up after that. Either her or John could take over Meyers role it would be for revenge but the rag e stays and every Halloween after becomes a blood bath as either Allyson or John go home to kill. Its not about family anymore its not about revenge anymore its about the Meyer curse which Us basically the Meyer rage. In between the rage and kills they can use all the flashbacks to set the rage off. Just saying since they stupidly ended Tommy big mistake there. Tommy was a lit like Doc Loomis in the way they saw his evil. So here us John Laurie's son got away with his girl and they both were such a joy to watch. Not once is H20 in a flashback and with with she cut off the wrong mans head.They put Mikey in the van. That was another dumb idea. Just say oops I only cut his mask off that rolled in the grass. H20 was on point. Well written cept for the end beheading. Face it Laurie n Mikey grow old we need new blood pardon the pun. But no more stupid stuff like Tommy acting big like always and making him so weak one swing and gone is Tommy. The sexy nurse shoots herself not epic not a real Mikey kill just him kicking the door so her gun gets her. Tacky killing. Maybe he tortures her before he outs her n hubby on the playground ride which we don't see. All in all its a keeper and I still watch Halloween 6 despite people downing it. For Donald Pleasance and Paul Rudd and Kara n Danny. Tho they are not a Meyer the Strode name irks Mikey. Which is why I wanted Kara n Danny back and John ll cool J little Julian from 2018 they write him off with a one liner.I thought Cameron would make it to Halloween Ends his kill was too soon in my opinion. So I've summed up pretty much the dumb stuff in Kills yet it Delivered. I'm betting Sheriff Hawkins dies in Ends but was glad he cane back. Too bad sheriff Hunt from Hallween 2 was not brought back. He was so handsome and at least understood Doc Loomis hunting Mikey. So in kills The Tommy Cameron kill was not good IMO. And the sxy nurse kill was dumb. You would think a more horrific Mikey style. I'll have to deal with it. No more cool Tommy and a lousy script for him. Thankfully I've got Halloween and Halloween 6 to satisfy my Tommy n Loomis team ups. I cant vision Ends with everyone dead but the last 3 or 4 I should say I see no storyline left except maybe one dies. If blumhouse bring back Halloween with a whole new story after Ends it better be good and it needs to bring the final survivors in from Allyson to Lindsay Hawkins if he survives Kills. And Laurie's son There was a reason H20 was a hit who even knew Laurie had Jamie John Allyson back in the day
I really enjoyed watching this, 3 very interesting people I'm such a huge fan
12:36, jason blum, "who doesnt want to be a queen?".............ummmmmmmm......................................
we could say a lot of nobodies with meaningless opinions but Im not getting political....
“unscripted. sounds dirty”.
LOVE jamie Lee Curtis!🎃
I'm from Charleston and will be seeing this movie on opening night. Hope I recognize some places in the movie . Also, I haven't been this pumped for a movie in a while
H40 was the best horror of 2018. And one of the best horror movies ever.
Jamie is legendary
Love JLC!💕💕👏🏾👏🏾I don’t like scary movies but I always seen the Halloween’s 😳😳😳😳☺️
Jamie's life really mirrors alot of Laurie Strode's I love her story "we are Laura Strode" I guess we've all met The Boogeyman I hope more ppl remember that before we rush to judgement
She’s such a queen I love her
I think it would be neat to see Jamie Lee Curtis, Adrienne King, & Dolly Parton all do a comedy movie together. Lol
Blumhouse is the Olive Garden of the horror genre
I love Jamie Lee Curtis as an actor but real life she seems big-headed and wordly. I don't know her so I can't really know but she gives off that vibe by her actions and way of talking. She is one of the best actresses of our time though professionally and she is sexy just very big-headed. Can't wait to go see this movie.
perhaps you should get to know her before you make false judgements and accusations. your comment here makes you appear snobby and egotistical
Dane Logan i believe it’s because she’s so confident in who she is and what she speaks of. She’s a very intense individual.
This is a great fun interview I like it a lot and a lot of fun too this is one of the best Halloween movies ever
Michael V Leatherface
I think they should of just shown the first Halloween in the movie theatre as a anniversary of the 40 years, I will see though because I am a big Halloween fan
You're gonna be mind blown this movie will be incredible
Agreed the more they add films to this franchise the worst it gets
they will in my country! (:
Erica J they were playing John carpenter’s original Halloween last night and this whole week at several theaters near me
TheHorrorAnthem that’s not a big accomplishment, outside of the original, 2 and H20 all the other movies are shit
Thank you ☺️
My name is Karen Barragan am the chief marketing officer of blumhouse
Are you a fan of my boss Jason Blum?
I can't wait 🤤
I tell you what I'd like to see? And that is, I'd love to see Jamie Lee Curtis & Adrienne King both star in Michael vs Jason. I think that would be awesome. I think it would be cool to see Jamie fight Jason & Adrienne fight Michael.
She is a wonderful person.
I just lived jamie lee curtis's voice
Jaime Lee 💯💯👌🏼
what do they mean the audience doesnt care about logistics ! it's so fun hearing logistics !
I wanna go on that set
Jason Blum likes to pet himself. Weird.
Lol
@Renji Ripon how does that even connect
I do the same thing. Im pretty damn good looking as well. It's only natural with fine specimen human beings.
"Get off your knees, Louis!!"
so i'm super curious why they didn't use this set or the myers house in the new film???? I hope they add it to the new films
Laurie strode is my hero!!
This a Halloween movie! They are really overthinking it!
this movie was amazing . it felt like it was the next chapter from the 78 movie .they did an awesome job . jamie nailed it and michael was on point .and david you made a great horror film.
I am very hesitant about seeing the new Halloween movie but I will give it a chance. The Halloween franchise is my very favorite horror franchise of all time. Every year I watch the Halloween movies in a marathon during October. The trailer seems so much like Rob Zombie's trailer of Halloween. I hope it doesn't disappoint. I mention this because I became a big fan of the SAW movies and then Saw 7 happened and it felt rushed to me and questions unanswered. Then they followed up with the prequel which wasn't so bad but it needs to continue from SAW 7.
Well i think you dont have anything to worry about because as i am a big Halloween fan also with John Carpenter on board i think we will be ok because he didn't like Rob Zombies movie's at all and he has never really been this involved since the first masterpiece
Omg I do same thing every October and on Halloween Night am usually on the last couple of Halloween movies.. Part 4 was the first one I remember seeing when I was younger.
OPEN THE DOOOOOR
I don't think Jamie liked the crossover universe question 🤣 I don't either, that'd be so ridiculous.
it looks like the dudes are trying to talk Jamie into something! I would love to meet her!
🎃, Halloween 2" , Halloween ( The Return Of Michael Myers & H2O yrs. Later " are to me the best of the 🎃 trilogy franchise & now Halloween 2018" will be Jamie Lee Curtis( actress) her last in the franchise & Donald Pleasence( Dr. Lomise) are the ones who started the 🎃 franchise. 💉🎬🎶🚨🚑🚒🚔🇺🇸🔦💣🚬🚪🚒🔪🔫🔫📞💻🎥🚬💀😱👿💻🔥👽🎃
Thank you David Gordon Green. Fucking love Halloween (2018).
Dear David, you should never be allowed to make another Halloween movie. I saw Halloween End. Thanks!
David Gordon Green did "Pineapple Express"
We are Negan
How many Halloween movies are their ? I lost count 🤣 and when did laurie died🤦♀️
11
The script for this trainwreck was garbage. Saw it on opening day and it was horrible. Jamie's Activia commercials were scarier than this crappy movie.
I want to date Jamie Lee Curtis. She's intoxicating.
in a way she is like carol from twd!!!!
No you got that wrong..you must be 15.. you mean Carol is like HER! That's JAMIE LEE CURTIS.. the SCREAM QUEEN so put some respect on her name..this queen is A LEGEND
i didn't realize that Jason Blum and Karl Urban are the same person
Yep .... id still jump jamies bones!
Man, there really should be worldwide public service announcemens on tv, on billboards and before TH-cam videos that tell you and finally teach you that you shouldn't constantly tell the world about your penis feelings. Please. Just do less.
Rather jump David
@@dirty06maggot 😂😂😂😂
mr jump scare Jason Blum will beat you to it.
The only movie I've seen Jamie in where I'd smash is Christmas with the Kranks, most specifically the tanning bed scene.
Micheal vs the Terrifier
Jason Blum is kinda cute ...?
We are venom name tags
also David Gordon Green has a David Lynch haircut
I still don’t understand why they called this one Halloween! It’s a sequel, not a remake!
I'm not sure what Jamie means when she says the scene where she watches Michael leave the prison is sort of unscripted, because I have the script, and that scene is in it.
xxoxia she meant her reaction to the scene and how she played it, and it’s the name of this series
she means her reaction
She's willing to do anything to protect her family. Learn self-defense, bars on doors, secret rooms, flood lights, target practice, etc. She'll go to any length and do whatever it takes... unless that means being politically incorrect of course. The most popular rifle for home defense and most popular rifle used and owned my millions of Americans for defense, the AR-15, or any semi-auto rifle whatsoever for that matter, completely absent from her gun rack. That killed believably in her determination and character immediately. A couple of shot guns, mostly bolt action hunting rifles, and a lever gun. But I'm to believe she's not capable of using one of the easiest rifles to use but more capacity and ability than a lever gun and she wanted to be, instead, sensitive, to gun ban efforts. What a crock of PC stupidity.
We need a Michael Myers Vs Jason Voorhees
David Gordon Green resembles David Lynch.
um they’re hot
Trowe mah
The movie was not that good to be honest
Laurie Strode V Carol Peletier (lesbian death match)
Jamie Lee Curtis is the sexiest old woman ever.
Idk why they would skimp on the budget for a movie like this. They are gonna make a killing, no need to skimp on the budget.
Bc thats Blumhouses whole M.O.. they believe in quality filmmaking on a budget.. and it works! This is gonna be their 4th straight horror/thriller release (Get Out, Split, Upgrade) thats made on low budget but blows the audiences away. Upgrade was really underrated, IMO.
@@drewharry88 I wouldn't say all that lol My favorite of those three is for sure Upgrade. I really enjoyed it. I think Get Out is extremely overrated and thinks it way more clever than it actually is. It's not bad it's just way over hyped. I'm not gonna get into why I think it's so over hyped but that's my opinion. Theres others I much more prefer. Original Paranormal Activity, Insidious (first one), Hush was very good. And a movie that I think had a much better twist than Get Out was The Visit. Creep 1 and 2 are cool aswell.
@@chriswilson1968 I forget they did the Creep films... I would 100% disagree with you on Get Out, though, lol. I think its clever for sure but I can see why people wouldn't enjoy it. But still youre kinda proving my point for me.. their first successful film was obviously Paranormal Activity which broke records with the profit it made against it's ridiculously small budget.. but I think that set off something in Jason Blums head about how you can find ways to make really good horror films on relatively small budgets if you just find the right directors and writers and give them the creative freedom they cannot get from a lsrger studio with a huge budget. Its worked very well for Blumhouse so far and honestly.. I hope they keep doing it. Big budgets can complicate things bc when that much money gets involved, studios tend to worry more which leads to executives controlling the film over the directors.
And despite your personal opinions.. all 4 of these movies HAVE blown audiences away when merely based on critical reviews and what not. I think Get Out, Split and Upgrade were all fantastic movies and Halloween sounds like its going to be as well.
@@drewharry88 My point was Halloween is a huge franchise and deserved a bigger budget than the other movies.
I've already seen enough of Jamie. She will probably go back to Hollywood as soon as this makes money. The hype for this movie is laughable considering they are merely making another Halloween movie with Jamie basically remaking H20 no wonder why horror is in a rut. Have fun.
David Gordon Green > rob zombie
I have a small crush on Jason Blum.
she is so attractive
A new film maker will destroy the original classic and wreck the original classic, don't go there.
This was a great interview but 80 drafts of a script? That just seems like David doesn't know what he's doing lol.
It's called process buddy.
If anything, it shows that he knows exactly what he is doing. He has vision and wants it to be perfect.
@@joshwilliams6517 80 drafts isn't "process", it's excess! You supposedly have a great idea for a Halloween movie yet it takes you 80 tries to get it right? HA!
@@TheMiloDavis If anything it shows the exact opposite lol. Vision means you have a set idea and you follow it, like lightning striking the brain. I can understand wanting something to be perfect and of course rewrites and tweaks are a necessary part of the process, but I've never heard a writer say in so many words, "I had this great idea for a movie but it took me 80 tries to find it". That doesn't even make sense; you either have the idea to start with or you don't!
Have you never heard of revisions? You clearly aren't a writer.
so this new halloween is supposed to be continued from the original one?we the the fans are suppose to forget the other halloweens .in other words laurie strode suppose to give us a happy ending by taking her brother michael myers out?
Would you rather have a messy confusing sequel to h8 or h6 or would you like a clean timeline where Michael is actually scary?
Im a true fan and the others films after part 2 were a joke.. Curse and H20 were decent but based off reviews so far.. this is the best since the original and it def looks that way from what Ive seen.
Making Michael Myers her brother made him less scary anyway. The fact that he has no motive for killing makes him even scarier
Laurie and Michael were never brother and sister in this movie.
Jake Montouro I liked that they were brother and sister. Now it’s just dumb. He just chooses a random woman just cause
C'mon Jamie, it's only a movie 🙄
