There’s just something terrifying seeing Michael Myers walking around in the middle of the woods at night. Great job!
Thank you very much, we had fun exploring some new ground with The Shape 🎃🔪
Amazing job! Simple but not cheap, nostalgic but not overdone, excellent characterization and cinematography. So refreshing to know that there are filmmakers that still get it.
I truly appreciate the kind words my friend, thank you so much 🔥
You made him scary again
Okay coming from someone who is obsessed with Halloween this is too good that it belongs in 2025! I mean that in a good way. This film blew me away watching it. And the fact that it is a short film??!? Like what? This needs more views I am just purely shocked that this was this good. Great work to everyone who worked on this short film. Sorry that i'm a little late to this as I just saw it now but holy! Well done!
Hi there! Thank you so much for these heartwarming thoughts 🙏🏻 This was my first professional short film, a labor of love from start to finish 🧡 I’m really glad you enjoyed it! The sequel is coming out on March 15th, and it’s gonna be something else 🔥 A bigger production value, higher stakes, a more compelling story, but all that in the same tone and with the same care 🎃 Feel free to check us out on Instagram for more content! IG - @HalloweenStalks
The simplicity of this film is what makes it so effective. Incredibly atmospheric and very similar in tone to the original. This is so impressive for a fan film and I really hope the next reboot takes inspiration from this, because this is how a Halloween movie should feel.
Thank you so much ! I would be thrilled if the people involved in the official films actually saw our humble contribution to the Halloween community 🧡🎃

This is hands down ABSOLUTELY the best fan made Halloween film I have ever seen and I have seen so many. No Halloween fan film I’ve seen before ever came remotely close to capturing the essence and tone of the original classic the way this film did!! Everything was spot on!!! The acting, the lighting and ambiance, the mask and the way the shape was shot. The quality is so good it reminds me of what Womp Stomp films did and is currently doing with their Friday the 13th fan films the Never Hike alone series. I would even say this film would give the latest Halloween trilogy a run for its money. I truly hope we can look forward to more films like this and hopefully a feature length or close to feature length film would be awesome!!! Thank you for this and Congratulations to a job well done!!! Look forward to seeing more!!!
I don’t know what to say… wow thank you for reaching out and share these thoughts with us 🧡 We came prepared on set to pay homage to the original film, which I love unconditionally 🙏🏻 I’m so glad you could see that and enjoyed your viewing experience 🎃 I would definitely love to do another one, tho next time I will need proper funding, as I financed this one myself. If you’d like, please share the film on your platforms and invite your friends to do the same. Getting attention towards the film is essential at this point, and all help is welcome 🔥
This fan Film has no business being this DAMN GOOD !! Hollywood should take notes because this is how it's done !! The simplicity, the elegance , the small nods to the original makes this a classic. As a long time horror fan you gave this franchise back what it lost. Chapeau !👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🇨🇦
Whoa 😳 Thanks man, this means a lot to me 🙏🏻 From the start I approached this project with love and respect for the original, I’ve been vocal about it.. but the fact the the result itself reflects that mindset and really hits the mark when it comes to the Halloween fans… I don’t know what to say 🔥 I’m grateful, truly
Feel free ro share the film on your social medias if you’d like, all help is welcome to get this film more visibility 🙏🏻 Maybe it will catch Hollywood’s attention at some point 😶 I’m a dreamer haha
Halloween Stalks is a refreshing and utterly satisfying entry into the Halloween and Michael Myers universe. A skillfully crafted, cinematic experience, fulfilling a genuinely atmospheric setting, along with alluring audio that sends deep chills. The callbacks to the original 1978 film are thoughtfully and tastefully done. Effective in its simplicity as intended in its roots. Dare I say Hollywood?- Absolutely! Purely and simply brilliant! A must watch for all fans.
Thank you for these thoughtful words dear friend ! From the get go, I was inspired by the quality of your work, thank you for providing such a great looking mask 🙏🏻 Without it, I’m not sure this film would’ve seen the light of day 🧡
I got chills watching this as it was so reminiscent of the 1978 Halloween film. The cinematography was absolutely amazing! The entire way Michael Myers moved, the gait and head tilt... I wish you would make another fan film. This was so great!!! Thank you so much for making this fan film.
Thank you for letting us know about your appreciation for our humble contribution to the Halloween fans 🙏🏻🧡 If this one keeps getting attention, I would love to make a sequel sometime
As a big Halloween fan, I just wanted to say that this film was AMAZING. I think this perfectly captured the essence of The Shape and was a fantastic ode to John Carpenter's timeless classic. The cinematography was stunning, and the music was the cherry on top. Truly an awesome film 🔥🎃🔪
I truly appreciate your kind words, thank you for taking the time to watch the film 🙏🏻
@@HalloweenStalks just subbed! Loved this
Can’t imagine all the hard work went through this making absolutely incredible 😮 🍿 you guys did amazing job, what she did is smart & gutsy to hide so happy for all of you 👏 💐
Hard work it was indeed, but it was sooo fun, I would do it all over again 🧡 Thank you for watching 🙂
@@HalloweenStalks surly will look forward for any upcoming projects 👏 hope you’re all doing very well!
OMG! This is by far the best Halloween fan film I have ever seen! Theater quality and the acting was on point. Michael was perfect. The aesthetic was amazing. More please!!
😯 wow thank you so much 🙌🏻 I’d be delighted to create more Shape mayhem 🔥 Let’s see how this one does in the foreseeable future, and perhaps a second one could come to life sooner than later
One of, if not the best Halloween fan film. The Shapes movements & mannerisms were on point. Much better acting than most fan films as well. 10/10. Part 2 when?!
Hey thanks man 🧡 I’m happy you liked our iteration of the character 🎃 I’d love to do a Part II, but it will dependnof how this one performs 🙏🏻 Feel free to share it in your social medias and to ask your friends to do the same, all help is welcome to get more attention on the film ! Take care
Here after seeing it featured on WWAM, had to show some love and give kudos to the creator/s for really doing their thing here! Excellent job! The passion behind the work is evident in the final product and you guys really nailed so many aspects, i don’t even know where to begin. lol Loved the idea of having her cover herself with all the leaves, first time seeing that in a horror film to my recollection and it’s something that would really happen. Beautifully shot, musical cues on point, Michael looks great. Great job everyone involved! Wishing everyone the absolute best and looking forward to more from you. ❤
Thank you so much for reaching and and letting us know your thoughts 🙏🏻 A real treat to read 🧡 We did this out of love, I’m glad it shows 🎃
Same here in general with your sentiments, and I also found it through WWAM. I definitely agree with you about the scene with the leaves. I really felt like that was a kind of logical, panic mode survival instinct thing to do and I don't think I've ever seen anything done quite like that in horror.
This was beautifully done! I’ve been a Halloween fan for as long as I can remember. Nothing scared me more as a kid than Michael Myers. You captured that fear the way the movies did!
Thank you so much, we did all we could to offer the fans a worthy entry 🎃🧡
@@HalloweenStalks
Tulmad
This was fantastic and felt like an extension of Carpenter’s work in 78. Thank you for understanding that you don’t always need the gore and thank you understanding The Shape! Loved this!!! Great job!!
Hey thanks man ! I’m glad we’re on the same page, less is more, right ? What you imagine is way more horrific than what you see 🎃😱
I'M SO EXCITED
Edit:
Just finished watching this and man what a masterpiece of a film truly. This will definitely be a film I'll watch every halloween🧡🎃🔪
Thank you ! It means a lot 🧡 Will you be on board if I ever make another one ? 😏
@@HalloweenStalks OF COURSE!! I'd be on board for a whole timeline if you did it🙌
FINALLY A true Halloween fan film that gets the cinematography right ✅️. Michael looks like The Shape we need! Everything fits, nothing looks over the top or goofy. Theater of the mind served WELL DONE!
Very happy to know you enjoy our take ! We worked super hard to offer the fans a worthy fan film 🙏🏻 Thank you for reaching out 🔥
Where's Cory?
@@HalloweenStalks just kidding I actually enjoyed this better than ends
@@James-fd2gg haha thanks man ! And Corey wasn’t actually born yet, this film takes place in the early 90s 🎃
You never know what your gonna get with fan films. I’m glad I clicked on this one! Hope to see more 👍🏽
Thank you for taking a chance on us, really glad we didn’t disappoint 🙏🏻
Ya'll DID THAT! The cinematography, acting, chase scene, the kills, the lighting---like WTF! AMAZING! TOP TIER! This is quality! Michael MEANT BUSINESS! 10/10!!! GIVE US MORE!
Thank you ! Can’t wait to go back to Haddonfield 🎃🔪
I have watched countless fan films hoping to come across something decent. I hadn't, until right now. This is absolutely incredible. High quality in every sense. A really good actor in the lead role. A creepy Myers whom you have kept in the shadows and who we only get glimpses of. Expertly directed and produced. Wonderful score too. Honestly, this is superb. Well done!
Thank you a thousand times for these kind words my friend 🧡 Crafting a film ain’t an easy task, it’s actually very, Very difficult. I have tremendous respect for every single filmmaker who committed to make a Halloween fan film and put themselves out there. Sure, the quality ain’t consistent throughout all those fan films when it comes to the technical aspects, but one thing that is consistent is the love all the creators have for the source material 🔥 These fan films inspired me to make my own 🎃
10/10 great work.
This film captures the feeling of the original movie really well. The stalking and the kills were very effective as well. A lot of other people would just complain that there aren't really any on-screen kills but the implication/discovery of the kill is done just as effectively as it would be if the kill was on-screen. The pacing is perfect, the Halloween vibe is very good as well.
The mask was really good as well.
Thank you ! Yes it was a risk we took, not showing the kills on screen, but it was a calculated one. I always thought that true horror ain’t what you see, but what you imagine 😱
@@HalloweenStalks Exactly! Some people just don't get that premise nowadays.
Been a while since i've seen a fan film that gave me chills! Simple and effective. Thats what always made Halloween work and you guys nailed it. The Shape was presented/shown perfectly. The actor who played him did a fantastic job. Everything in general felt very cohesive. On a technical standpoint, very well done. The sound, music, editing, etc...Great. Look forward to seeing what you guys come up with next! :)
That is a fantastic review, thank you very much for reaching out and letting us know what you thought of it 🙌🏻🎃
Out of the dozens of fan films I've watched, this is one of the very few rare ones that was actually good. Great job.
Thanks 🔥 I really appreciate it 🎃 Have a great day !
Man whoever played Michael had the walk perfect! H2”81” vibe good job!
Great shots too! Wish it was longer
Really glad you enjoyed our take on The Shape ! We had a blast crafting the character in a suitable way 🎃
Probably one of the best Halloween short films out there. Absolutely loved this. Please make more in the near future! :)
Thank you dear friend 🔥 I would love that ! So glad you enjoyed the film 🙌🏻
Kick ass job ! I really enjoyed it! Hope to see more from you
Thank you so much for watching our humble contribution to the Halloween Universe, I’m glad you had a good time watching 🎃🔥
I've watched A LOT of Halloween fan films on UA-cam over the years. This one easily made it to my top 3 favorites. I'll be rewatching this one every Halloween from now on! Great work here!
That’s very sweet to read, thank you man ! 🎃🧡
100000% better than Halloween Ends. Good job guys!! Please make more Michael Myers movies!!🙏
I would love to ! Let’s see how this one does 🔥 Thank you for watching !
This was very well done! Love the atmosphere! The Shape was captured great! The music was perfect! 🤙🏼🔪
I truly appreciate you taking the time to watch my humble contribution to the Halloween Universe man 🙏🏻 Thanks 🎃
This is truly incredible! It feels like 78' and the score is brilliant and not to mention cinematography! Well done, seriously! This is up there with Colemans Halloween Inferno series in my opinion, fantastic!
Thank you so much ! This a quite a compliment, I particularly enjoyed Inferno 🔥
Hands down the best Halloween fan film I've ever seen. I loved the entire production, but some things you nailed were the lighting, the acting, the sound and music, the chemistry between your two leads, and most of all the subtlety of the entire production. You NEVER went over-the-top with anything! You were completely subtle and you kept your production reigned in. Feather in your cap! Compliments to your two lead actors for their great acting and realistic portrayal.
Again, you 100% nailed this!
Thank you so much, your words are truly heartwarming 🧡 We worked so hard on every single detail to make this as close to perfection as we could 🙏🏻 So glad you enjoyed the result ! We’re currently working on a sequel, feel free to follow @HalloweenStalks on Instagram to keep up to date 🎃
Easily THE BEST Halloween fan film I've seen. Wonderfully done.
Very kind of you to say, thank you 🙌🏻🎃
Great work! Nailed that spooky atmosphere needed for a Halloween Film! 🔥
Thank you 🙏🏻 A great deal of attention was paid to every single detail 🔥
These was eery and had the feel of the original amazing job!
Thank you ! We had a blast paying this homage to John Carpenter’s masterpiece 🧡
High 5. This is a scary ass film. Myers looks on the money. Great acting, camera work. Dialogue believable and realistic. Congratulations
Hey thanks for your kind words! Stick around, part 2 drops this friday and it is, in my opinion, a way better film than the first one 🔥
This was an EXCELLENT film! This was clearly done by people who love the franchise right down to the little nods and easter eggs from previous Halloween films. Great shots and atmosphere as well. I would love to see another one!
Thank you very much for this fantastic feedback 🙏🏻 This film was made for people just like you, who can appreciate those little details 🎃 Thanks for reaching out
Great work! From Michael being on point, to the score, to the acting, to the suspense, and even paying some homage (behind the tree shot and the stab through the wall kill) amazing work all around. The things I loved the most were the lighting, atmosphere and cinematography. I truly hope that the next Halloween movie/remake/reboot (or maybe even a Halloween Stalks II 👀) looks and feels something similar to this. Awesome job and I can't wait to see what you and your team do next 🎃🧡🔥
Thank you so much for such a heartwarming review 🧡 I truly hope I get to make a follow up 🔥 or if Hollywood wants me at the helm of the next one, I’m in haha !
Pretty interesting

Very interesting, loved the cinematic look and hope for a part 2 if is possible!!! cant imagine what you guys could make with a high budget 😮
Thank you so much 🧡 This is my first professional short film ever, and I opted for something short, but well executed so I could develop my filmmaking skills. It was auto-produced and self-financed. Now that this one’s out, let’s see if it gets enough attention. If it plays out well, I could launch a GoFundMe campaing at some point to finance the next one !
Un chef d'œuvre!!! J'avais tellement hâte de visionner ce « Fan Film » et wow, j'ai été vachement impressionné. Les plans de vue, le jeu d'acteur, l'utilisation du hors champ... rien à dire, c'était parfait. Un très bel hommage au film original sorti en 1978. Toutes mes félicitations pour ce magnifique projet! Et en plus, c'est filmé au Québec!! J'adore!
Ben voyons 😯 C’est vraiment gentil, très content que vous ayiez apprécié 🔥
As a huge Halloween fan I have to say this is fantastic! Very atmospheric in the woods, I almost forgot it was fan made, well done!!
Thank you for your kind words and for giving our humble fan film a chance 🙏🏻 It was my first professional short film and I deep dived into it in hope of making something memorable 🧡 I enjoyed every minute of it, and I’m even more happy with the second one, which is set to be released on March 15th!
Nice job mate. Very interesting
Thank you so much ! 🎃
This was so well done for a small cast, 👏 I'm feeling more motivated to do my own this Halloween now, I just always overwhelm myself with plot ideas, places to film, casts etc but this made me realize that not always is a huge cast needed to make a masterpiece like this. Just patience and proper planning. Absolutely one of my favorites.
Hey thank you for your kind words 🧡 Let me know when you make your own fan film, I’d be happy to see it
Definitely will brother! Truly appreciate it! I have a few parodies I've done over the years with my little brother, he plays a young Loomis and me as Michael always stressing him out lol this year though we want to do something more serious, hopefully it can be close to being as good as your masterpiece. 🖤🎃🔪
As long as you put love into the making of it, it will be fantastic I’m sure
Will do brother, thank you so much for the motivation.
You got this 🔥 take care
You guys get it man that's all I can say y'all understand I want a Netflix series HBO Max or something just like this I don't think it would need too many seasons heck maybe even just 1 but stories like this muuaaahh perfection this captures exactly what John Carpenter was saying about the character thank you guys!
Big thank you man ! Glad you could sense the homage we tended to pay to the original movie 🙌🏻
Everything is pretty perfect, the Music and Atmosphere in particular capture the original flawlessly. The execution is straightforward, a bit overused, but well done. I love the fact that The Shape moves *exactly* like he should, I do wish we could've gotten to see a death scene but the muffled attack at the end was nicely mixed. I don't know why she ran back to the house, for a second I thought it was a neighbor, but I would've ran to Crystal Lake before back home in that scenario.
Thank you very much for your feedback ! Glad you enjoyed the film ! And yes, I get what you say about her running back to the house. In my mind, The Shape knew all along she was in the ditch, but he was toying with her. When he walks away, she runs in the opposite direction, towards the house. Therefore she thinks she’s safe to go back in, to grab car keys and get the hell out of there or something. But The Shape knew better.. 🎃
@@HalloweenStalks Michael is the master trickster, and I like how clever he is in the og so that stays within character and this approach. thanks for the explanation and I hope to see another project from the same team, this was stellar work!
@@mega6836 My very pleasure ! And yes stay tuned, we might come up with something new in the future ! Follow us on IG ! @HalloweenStalks
That was honestly outstanding
This was so nicely shot and you can see the effort and planning this had put in it
The tree shots with Michael when he was stalking Paul was deffo a Easter egg to the scene in the original with him stalking Annie. Honestly love it so much. The idea of having Michaels mask in the intro instead of a pumpkin was interesting and also the factor of having it pull out instead of zoom in. Gave me chills with that chase scene and the entire thing had me smiling cause this is something I love seeing. Halloween fan films are brilliant and this is one I'll remember as being well thought out and true to the original and it's simple source material
Well done honestly 🎃💜
I don’t know what to say… Thank you so much, I’m so glad you enjoyed it 🧡
As a huge Halloween fan y’all did such a wonderful job achieving the same energy of the original. The time and money you put into this didn’t go unnoticed! Would love to work with you on future projects I’m a filmmaker myself in st louis so if you ever needed help on anything I’d love to. Great film guys!
Thank you so much Jake, this film was made out of love for the franchise, I’m really glad you could feel our passion for it ! I’ll remember your offer my friend 🙏🏻🔥
Absolutely amazing job, takes me right back to the 78. The woods was spot on, in making me feel uncomfortable, the lighting, sound and effects was amazing. Would love to see a little gore and Michael to stalk his victims a little more than a long chase sequence, but honestly the chase was spectacular, the music and tension built up throughout it was magical and the cherry on top with Michaels intelligence to lure his victim straight into his grasp was top notch, great job can’t wait to see more! 🎃
Reading your review of our film is a real treat 🧡🙏🏻 Thank you for reaching out, I’m happy to know you had a good time watching it 🎃
I've been following this film project for a while, only now got a chance to see it.
I sincerely mean when I say you and your crew did an outstanding job with this, it's incredibly faithful to the modernised films and the franchise at heart.
I really hope you're proud of this!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time watch our film, abd for your heartwarming feedback 🙌🏻 Feel free to share the film on your social medias, and follow the official IG account @HalloweenStalks 🧡
I am in full awe with this film, it was shot, scored and produced beautifully. Congratulations to your entire team. My only wish is that it would’ve been longer.
🧡x one million 🙏🏻
Couldn't agree with ya anymore on that honestly this fan film was amazing 🎃
The scenery is gorgeous btw why autumn is beautiful dang it 🥲 🎃 🔪
This is quite impressive! Your cinematography, effects and lighting are outstanding! You did a fantastic job of making the forest look really dark and spooky. Loved the shots of Michael stalking the girl in the woods. Best of all, you got the mask right! Great work!
Thank you 🎃 I was once told “Get the mask right and you’re halfway there” I listened haha Thanks for watching, I’m truly glad you enjoyed the film and reached out to let me know 🙌🏻
Wow! 🧡 this was absolutely amazing! The acting, the ambiance, The Shape.....Incredible! As a huge fan of the 1978 film - you knocked it out of the park! Well done, congratulations! You're future is bright!
Thank you 🙏🏻 I truly appreciate you reaching out and letting us know you enjoyed our film 🧡 It was made out of love for the original
Absolutly amazing!!
Thank you so much !
Very impressive!!! The mood is pitch perfect!!! John Carpenter would be proud!!!
Thank you so much, it truly means a lot 🧡 It was made out of love and respect for him and his work, it would be a dream if he ended up watching it someday 🙏🏻🎃
You managed to capture the essence of what made Michael Myers so damn terrifying in that original film that so many of the sequels have failed to do. He was quite literally the Shape. Such an amazing piece of art. Thank you to all those involved!!!
Thank you so much for your heartwarming message dear friend, this film was made out of love, it’s always a treat when people reach out to tell us they enjoyed it 🧡
The movie is very, very beautiful, Michael Myers, very classic, and the movie has a Halloween 1978 atmosphere
Thank you very much for the kind words, I have the highest respect for the original movie, and I worked as hard as I could to pay it homage 🧡
Woooooooo! Yeah! So cinematography awesome. YEEEAHH. 👏🏾🎃👍🏾
Thank you ! I did my best to give it a cinematic feel, I wanted to make a fan film that felt cannon and legitimate 🧡🎃
Incredible Cinematography, and props to everyone involved! One of the greatest Halloween Short Films!
Thank you very much for your kind words 🔥🎃 Glad you enjoyed it !
Well done...one of the best ones I have seen! Wish it was longer !!!!!! Great job!
Thank you very much for watching, really happy to know you enjoyed it ! Have a great day 🎃
This was incredible. Great job guys. WOW! I want more.....
Thanks ! I’d love to do more 🧡🔥 It was a fun journey 🎃
Wow. One of the best fan films I've seen. The acting was great, Michael Myers looked fantastic (I actually got chills), the lighting was on point. Congratulations, you should all be very proud of yourselves.
Thank you so much 🔥 it’s heartwarming to read this 🧡
Thank you for your fan service👏🏻
Thank you for giving our fan film a chance 🧡
The Shape actor in this really did good job on the emotionless robotronic movements of Micheal. I really loved James Jude Courtney for the same reason. The tone and cinematography in this actually reminded me a lot of the 1978 flashback intro in Halloween Kills.
Thank you very much ! I’ll make sure to let the actor know you enjoyed his portrayal of The Shape 🎃
THIS IS AMAZING! Well done to ALL involved!
Thank you 😌 I’ll pass the word along to the team 🙏🏻
out of plenty of fan films ive seen, this was one of the few to really wow me. Excellent job! You should be so proud!
Thank you very much 🙏🏻🧡 I’m very proud indeed, and even more grateful as I keep receiving appreciation messages just like yours !
This is what we needed than all 3 new ones. Recreate the whole thing and get a epic ending we all deserve!
Thank you for watching our film, glad to know you enjoyed it 🔥
Great job. The pacing was nice. The soundtrack was a definite plus. The actor portraying the Shape captured the character's movements really well. The lighting looked great. The hard work put into this short film paid off well.
Thank you so much for this stellar review 🎃🧡 Really glad you had a good time watching the film ! Feel free to share it on your social medias, all help is welcomd to bring more attention on it !

Amazing! You guys got Micheals look down perfectly
Hey thank you ! We came prepared, our Shape was carefully crafted !
Wow this was so truly amazing for a fan-film. It could've been an official Halloween short. The acting, the athmosphere and the cinematography was top notch. I've been a fan of the franchise since I was 5 years old and I haven't been scared for the main characters as much ever since. The anxiety was filling me up inside. It had perfect amount of tension, scares. Also, the soundtrack sounds so sinister.
I'd love to see future follow-ups with different locations. A spooky mansion or a house would make my skin crawl knowing The Shape is around, creeping across the hallways and rooms. Creeking floors and doors and wind blowing in from the windows. 🔪🎃
Thank you so much for reaching out and letting me know you enjoyed it 🧡🎃 I’ve been a fan of the franchise - especially the original movie - for the longest time, and making this film was actually fulfilling a dream. If this one performs well enough and keeps getting attention, I might be tempted by the making of a follow up… and I may already have something in store in this regard 🎃 Feel free to share the film on your social medias to allow more people to watch it 🧡 And follow the official IG account, there’s plenty of content, bts and Q&As if you want to know more about this project !
Amazing! How you managed to make a 14 min film so amazing that it felt like a full length is beyond me. Mask was great, actors great, the shape was great! Excellent job!
Thank you so much ! We worked hard to get the tone right, we came prepared 🔥 So glad you had a good time watching it !
Really well done. Loved that you didn't actually have to show the kills to make it scary. Just the aftermath. And each time you showed The Shape, he looked suitably creepy. Especially staring at her in the woods. Fantastic job!
Thanks ! We had a lot of fun crafting this short film, and I’m especially pleased by the performance of the actor portraying The Shape 🙏🏻 Shooting the thing in the woods was challenging on a technical standpoint, but we had to use the autumn setting at our advantage 🍂
John Carpenter would be proud of this.
This means a lot my friend, thank you very much 🧡 I would die if he ended seeing it someday 🎃
Amazing! I saw Halloween II at the drive inn in 1981 and this definitely gave me the chills! 😳
It’s a real treat to read ! We worked hard to get the tone right 🙏🏻🎃 Thank you !
The amount of fear that was in me when I watched this. It's a nice, toned down version and I love it!
Thank you very much, I’m glad you enjoyed our humble contribution to the Halloween community 🎃 Finding the right tone to pay homage to the original was very important to me, so comments like yours mean everything 🙏🏻 Follow the official IG account if you’d like, there’s a lot of bts content and Q&As !

Hey man thank you so much 🔥 I sure would love to make another one ! Let’s see how this one does, so far it’s up to a very good start 🙏🏻🧡
I had to double check and make sure this wasn’t an actual Halloween film. You did it justice in every single way. Bravo
I’m truly grateful for your kind words 🙏🏻🧡🎃 So glad you enjoyed our humble contribution to the Halloween community
Very well done love the simplicity!
Thank you Nicole 🔥🙏🏻
Absolutely fantastic !
Thank you !! 🔥
we need more, great film! Happy Halloween 🙏
Happy Halloween 🎃 Thank you very much for the kind words 🙏🏻
This is the epitome of what Michael is. Not scary, but haunting. Amazing work.
Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻 I think it’s all a question of balance, less is more in a way. You have to show him but not too much, in order to make him scary and menacing
Phenomenal job to all involved!!! Truly the best fan film I’ve ever seen! 10/10
Omg thanks for this killer rating 🙌🏻 I’m glad you enjoyed our humble offering to the Halloween Fans
Y’all did a phenomenal job with this! The score was awesome and the lighting on Michael’s mask was done so well!
Thanks man ! I’m really happy you liked it 🔥
Holy crap that was AMAZING! Great job! I loved it
Thank you very much ! Feel free to follow the IG account @HalloweenStalks so you don’t miss any update 🎃🙏🏻
That was amazing! You did a great job
Thank you so much 🧡
Really solid job on this fan film. It says something that fan films are better and more true to what Halloween is compared to actual movie producers.
When a film is made by fans for fans, one can feel the passion and love the creators have for the source material 🧡 Happy to know you enjoyed our humble contribution to the Halloween community 🎃
Great job Dominick and staff, I really enjoyed it. 5 thumbs ups ❤
Thank you Luis! It means a lot 🙏🏻 Keep an eye out, part 2 is coming this March 🎃🔪
Good work, Love it!!!! Hope to see a part 2 of this.
Thanks ! Would love to make a follow up sometime 🎃
This is actually the best Halloween fan-film I've ever seen, the cinematography and the acting is 👌
Thank you very much 🎃🧡 We crafted it very carefully !
Damn, that was good! The amount of creativity and love put into this is astounding. Despite some weird line deliveries here and there, the acting was pretty solid and was good enough to make you emotionally attached to the characters. The cinematography and camera movement was pretty good at building up tension as well. Also, the potrayal and lighting of the Shape was very well done. I think this film's biggest strength is it's ability to do a lot with very little, like the original did. It has minimal gore, yet freaked me out more than most of the Halloween films. I especially LOVED the girlfriend's death scene and how it's not shown but you know what happened. It's incredibly haunting and stays true to the 1978 classic.
8.5/10, one of the better fan films I've seen in a while.
Wow thank you so much man, this is such a heartwarming review 🙏🏻 I really appreciate you taking the time 🔥 I’m glad you enjoyed the film and got the homage I wanted to pay to the original movie
@@HalloweenStalks You're welcome! You and the crew behind this should be proud of themselves and deserve all the praise they're getting for this film.
I couldn’t stop telling all of them how grateful I was to have them on set with me, they all did it for free because they believed in my vision, that was something 🧡
Straight Up Mic Drop!!!...Outstanding!!!!!
Thank you my friend, I truly appreciate you watching our film 🎃🔥
@@HalloweenStalks You (and your team) managed to hit every beat that H:Ends didn't....
This was awesome, probably my favourite Halloween fan film I've seen
Very kind of you to say, thank you for giving our film a chance, I’m glad you enjoyed it 🧡🎃
This is fan film? This is outright a better and more tonal capturing of the original than the last two actual movies we got, and I sincerely mean that. Good freaking work.
It means a lot man, thank you 🙏🏻 This was made out of love and passion to pay homage to the original 🧡 I’m truly happy you could sense it while watching 🎃 Feel free to share it, all help is welcome to bring more attention to it !
Very well done. Captured more of the essence of the original film than any of the other fan films that I've seen.

LOVED this!!! This was 10000 times better than anything we got from this new trilogy. Kudos!
Thank you so much, it truly means a lot 🧡🙏🏻 Feel free to share on your social medias and talk about it, the most challenging aspect of a film is to make it known and visible to the world!
really like the setting of Michael being in the woods, gives off a more creepy and desolate vibe to it.
It was a fun shoot for sure, the creepiness of the woods offers a lot of possibilities 🔪
Well done! Very atmospheric with the fog in the woods. Great actors and cinematography 🎃
Thank you very much 🎃 Keep an eye out for the sequel 🔥
