John Carpenter's Halloween Spawns Spin-off Movie Last Supper: The Russellville Hacksaw Murders

For decades television shows have had spin-offs. For every popular show that comes along fans tend to want to delve deeper and deeper into a story and thus a new arc is born. It happened on shows like "Cheers" which spawned "Frasier" and is happening today with John Carpenter's 1978 classic Halloween...


Follow up:




Let us introduce you to filmmaker William Sanders. He lives, breaths, sleeps everything to do with Michael Myers and the original Halloween. He has even gone so far to grabbing a few lines of dialogue from the film and creating an entire ninety-nine minute indie film named the "Last Supper: The Russellville Hacksaw Murders"

"Last Supper" is based on a line of dialogue from the film when Dr. Loomis (Donald Pleasence) goes to a cemetery in search of Judith Myers’ grave. While in search of the grave marker, the graveyard keeper tells Loomis a story about Charlie Bowles, but before the gravekeeper can finish the story Loomis goes on about Michael Myers and the story of Halloween continues there.

For reference the dialogue reads per the script: "Every town has something like this happen. I remember a guy over in Russellville. Charlie Bowles. About fifteen year ago he finished dinner, excused himself from the table, went out into the garage and got a hacksaw, then came back into the house, kissed his wife and two children goodbye, and then proceeded to ..."

"This small scene has left many fans including myself wondering what did ol' Charlie Bowles do?" says Sanders. "In my research for this script and film, I have found that Charlie Bowles was a real man from John Carpenter’s past; rumor has it that he lives in Russellville, Kentucky, near Bowling Green and was a theatre owner at the theatre that Carpenter used to see films at."

"Last Supper: The Russellville Hacksaw Murders" has been written and will be directed by Sanders. Shooting begins this fall, quite possibly Halloween time. What do you think Bidites? Good idea for an extension of the original film?

I always thought that was the way Halloween 6 should have gone. Perhaps, originally, the "thorn curse" was with good ol' Charlie Bowles, just before it passed onto Michael. This could be a great idea for a "spin-off" if executed correctly...
