John Carpenter, creator of soundtrack and master of all things horror, is finally returning to the Halloween franchise. Carpenter will score the upcoming flick directed by David Gordon Green and written by Green, Jeff Fradley, and Danny McBride which is due out October 19. This is the first time Carpenter has scored a Halloween film since Halloween III in 1982.
Perhaps one of the most iconic film soundtrack songs across any genre is the theme to Halloween. Carpenter has now posted the 2018 version, titled "The Shape Returns," which is exactly as chilling as you remember it (and maybe a little more). Because you don't get to be known as one of the masters of horror by not scaring the absolute piss out of everyone at every turn with your music.
Oh, and don't forget to check out Carpenter on tour this October.
