VIDEO : ?Halloween? Almost Reshot The Original?s Ending

David Gordon Green loved the original 1977 'Halloween' film.
Uproxx reports Green almost went a little too far with the kinds of homages he wanted his film to make.
John Carpenter, the film's original director, who serves as the new film?s executive producer, ultimately talked him out of it.
Green told Entertainment Weekly his plan was to use a lookalike of the late Donald Pleasence, who played Dr. Loomis in the original film.
Green wanted to reshoot the ending of the 1977 Halloween for the new movie?s beginning.
---It was actually Carpenter?s idea, saying, ?You don?t need to get people up to speed like that. Just drop them in on your movie.'---
