Halloween: The Official Movie Novelization by John Passarella
5.0
“It’s not a cage, baby. It’s a trap.”
Laurie waited 40 years for the moment to come face to face with The Shape aka Michael Audrey Myers again and this time she’s ready for him. Only this time she has a daughter and granddaughter to protect.
The Official Halloween Novelization written by author John Passarella is even better than the movie in my opinion. Mind you I really like the movie, saw it twice in theaters and am looking forward to the sequel. I’ll read that novelization as well when it’s published. There were a few loose ends that it cleared up for me such as what happened after Julian left, who those random women were that Michael killed and Michael’s fate at the end of the movie. This was an easy read for me and the first paperback book that I read so far this year. I was happy when the idea for a new Halloween movie emerged. One that ignored every movie after the first. Mind you I like those movies ( even Rob Zombie’s take on the series).
Previously, I wasn’t familiar with the author’s other novelizations. However, I truly hope that he gets a chance to write the upcoming novelization as well as the final one in the trilogy. I’m rating Halloween five out of five stars.
