The Halloween director reveals his favorite Easter egg in the new movie

When we make a movie like 2018 Halloweenit is tempting, and rather necessary, to refer to the story of such a franchise. The director and co-writer David Gordon Green has obviously bent over this practice rather well with the latest film, as references and events are scattered throughout this call to other franchise films . But what makes him most proud is the following obscure reference:

Even though Green himself had heard about it, thanks to Eric Eisenberg's time at the Halloween press day, in this story, there is one more interesting detail. EW shares David Gordon Green's revelation that John Carpenter not only noticed the reference to this song, but his reaction to the ad-lib was rather pleasant.

In the 1978 scene Halloweenwe see Laurie walking on the sidewalk, after dropping the key to the Myers' house, as she had promised her father. As she walks down the street, she sings this improvised song for herself and we finally see Michael Myers watching her as she walks away.

This song, which has been the subject of many questions on the Internet, is next to the masks of Halloween III: Season of the witch as one of the most memorable but subtle references to the past Halloween cannon in the new movie. And now, after years of being a curiosity buried in a classic moment, it's a current song. Although do not be crazy looking for this piece for now, it does not look like the soundtrack of the new movie that contains it. Unless, like The Shape himself, he is hidden from view.

Not only will positive word of mouth help keep this film in everyone's mind, but now, the potential of Easter egg hunt will no doubt encourage followers and beginners potential links to the past.
