Last Updated on August 2, 2021

As we all know good and well by this point in time, Blumhouse and filmmaking team Danny McBride and David Gordon Green have an all-new direct sequel to John Carpenter's classic slasher prototype HALLOWEEN headed our way this holiday season. And we also know that Carpenter has been involved with the new film, even going so far as to provide the motion picture with its score.

And speaking of Carpenter's score for Blumhouse's Halloween sequel, today you can listen to the first track "The Shape Returns" in its entirety! Sacred Bones posted it over on YouTube and its available for your listening pleasure below. Give it a go-around and then let us know what you think!

Blumhouse's HALLOWEEN will see the return of Jamie Lee Curtis to the role of 

Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.

Also in the cast are Judy Greer as Laurie's daughter Karen; Andi Matichak as Karen's daughter Allyson; Miles Robbins, Virginia Gardner, Dylan Arnold, and Drew Scheid as Allyson's Haddonfield High classmates; Will Patton and Rob Niter as police officers; Rhian Rees as a character named Dana; and Diva Tyler as a caretaker, with stuntman James Jude Courtney and original Michael Myers performer Nick Castle both wearing the mask of the iconic slasher.

John Carpenter served as an executive producer on the film and is composing the score. The film has been officially rated R via the MPAA for "horror violence and bloody images, language, brief drug use and nudity." HALLOWEEN will debut at the Toronto International Film Festival this September before hitting theaters on October 19, 2018.
