If you've been following our recent coverage, you'll know that John Carpenter's Halloween will return to theaters across the country this October. We have a new trailer for you to watch and confirmation that a new transfer will be screened.

"This October, John Carpenter's immortal classic, HALLOWEEN, will be making a return to theaters nationwide. This will be the biggest run the film has had since shocking audiences in 1978, and makes for the perfect early kick off to next year's 35th Anniversary celebration.

Screening before the film will be YOU CAN'T KILL THE BOGEYMAN: 35 YEARS OF HALLOWEEN, a new mini documentary written and directed by our own Justin Beahm, focusing on the undeniable impact the film (and series) has had on culture and the genre. The documentary will run at all screenings coast-to-coast."

We've been really curious about the transfer/presentation and an answer has been provided. It has been confirmed that the screening of Halloween will be a brand new digital transfer that will be presented with a new 5.1 audio mix.

Dozens of theaters have already been announced and to find out if there is a screening in your area, visit: http://www.screenvision.com/cinema-events/halloween/
