Two weeks ago Dimension Films made this major announcement where they revealed plans for 18 direct-to-disc sequels for release in 2009. Something interesting that was announced was that following a theatrical release of HALLOWEEN II - the sequel to Rob Zombie's re-envisioning of Michael Myers' tale of terror created by John Carpenter - the plan is to release direct-to-disc sequels to the newly rebooted franchise. This might not be the case, read on for the skinny.

Bloody-Disgusting's BC is on hand at this weekend's Halloween: 30 Years of Terror convention in Pasadena, CA where HALLOWEEN Producer Malek Akkad, son of Moustapha Akkad, revealed to attendees that any-and-all sequels will be theatrically released, contrary to initial reports. It was also revealed that the sequel will begin directly after Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN and that Tyler Mane will return as Michael. More on this as it comes in. What do you guys think? Would you rather see loads of direct-to-disc sequels or a few big budget sequels every five years? I personally will take anything that's good. Click here for details on this weekend's convention.
