Halloween II is an upcoming 2009 American horror film written, directed, and produced by Rob Zombie. The film is a sequel to Zombie's 2007 remake of Halloween (1978). Halloween II will follow the aftermath of the events of the 2007 remake, particularly how they affected Laurie Strode. The film will see the return of lead cast members Malcolm McDowell, Scout Taylor-Compton, and Tyler Mane, who portrayed Dr. Loomis, Laurie Strode, and Michael Myers in the 2007 film, respectively.
Zombie originally passed on doing a sequel to his remake, feeling as though he had no energy left to make another Halloween film. Two-years later, after unsuccessful attempts to draft a script for a sequel, the Weinstein brothers, Malek Akkad, and Rob Zombie, who had a renewed interest in the film, secured a deal for the director to return. Zombie plans to focus on the connection between Laurie and Michael, and the idea that they both share similar psychological problems. Halloween II is scheduled for release on August 28, 2009.

I personally can't wait! I loved his first remake, and I think this one will be even better.
