According to IMDb.com, Halloween 9 will be titled Halloween: Retribution. It has a release date for 2006, but I highly doubt this will be realesed until at least 07. It doesnt have any producers or director listed but three actors, Heather Bowen, who won a walk on role from Halloweenmovies.com, Bryce Inman, who will be playing Stephen Lloyd (Jamie Lloyd's baby from Halloween 6) and Alexa Karter who will play Stacy DeAngelo, an unknown character to the series who im assuming is Stephen's girlfriend. The storyline is very little as of right now, but does indicate that the film will be going back to its old roots and will without a doubt included Halloween 4 - 6 unlike H20 and Resurrection. Stay tuned for more info - Special K.

The crew is hard at work preparing for Monday. The HALLOWEEN 8 company will set up Monday for the first day of shooting at a century-old psychiatric hospital that doubles (surprise) as a sanitarium in the film. As one crew member puts it, "Every strange story you could possibly think up for the place could be authenticated." Filming will take place in an abandoned building that formerly housed criminally insane inmates. Moustapha Akkad is heading for the set from his L.A. office today. Jamie Lee Curtis will have her first day in front of the HALLOWEEN 8 cameras on Wednesday.

Busta Rhymes (“Finding Forrester,” “Shaft,”) Bianca Kajlich (“Boston Public,” “Bring It On”) and Sean Patrick Thomas (“Save the Last Dance,” “Dracula 2000”) will star in the next installment of the “Halloween” franchise, it was announced today by Moustapha Akkad of Nightfall Productions.

Reports indicate that HALLOWEEN II director Rick Rosenthal is being considered as a replacement for Ransick in the director's chair. As casting for the film gears up, Tyra Banks, who's appeared in THE FRESH PRINCE OF BEL-AIR and the film HIGHER LEARNING, is being considered for a role.
