“With this year marking the 43rd year of the original Halloween, along with the upcoming release of director David Gordon Green’s new film Halloween Kills, we’re excited for this iconic franchise to represent a symbol of the holiday itself.

So even if Halloween Kills might be the main course for horror fans this October, the classics work as a delicious appetizer. But, of course, there’s also plenty of reason to love Halloween 4 and Halloween 5, as they brought Michael Myers back after the divisive third entry of the original franchise.

John Carpenter’s 1978 classic Halloween and its sequels, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers and Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, will be available in theaters this October to celebrate spooky season by honoring one of the most iconic killers in cinema.

Before Halloween Kills unleashes Michael Myers’ latest killing spree, CineLife Entertainment is bringing three classic franchise movies to theaters.
