A work by Conor Bateman, commissioned by Pink Flamingo Cinema’s Extremely Online Project.
When John Carpenter’s Halloween aired on American television in 1981, there were more surprises than expected. A handful of extra scenes had been shot during the production of Halloween II, including one that would alter the original film’s narrative in an extraordinary way.
