Halloween Two Michael Myers Mask

Work is underway on the eagerly awaited Rob Zombie movie H2 (Halloween 2), a sequel to his 2007 reimagining of the John Carpenter classic.

Over at the official H2 blog Zombie has uploaded a picture of the Michael Myers mask to be used in the new film. Well, more accurately it’s a picture of the model from which the mask will be cast.

The mask has been created by effects wiz Wayne Toth who, according to the blog, “is back on the case working the greatest Michael ever”. Myers will again be played by Tyler Mane from the 2007 movie.

It certainly looks as if Myers has been through hell. Note the hole on the head’s right hand side which was, presumably, made by a bullet.

Shooting for H2 begins in March with a US release date of late August 2009.
