30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong
7. Halloween series
Premise of the movies: When you think of the original horror movies, chances are Friday the 13th isn’t the only one you think of. Halloween is another, with Michael Myers haunting streets. The original movies were scary, twisted, and stuff of nightmares. Some of the sequels weren’t as great and the reboot attempt in 2007 just wasn’t good enough.
The original movie told the story of Laurie Strode, who had to flee Michael as he attempted to kill her. Over the course of the movie, Laurie’s story was explained and her connection to Michael revealed.
However, it’s time for a new creation with Michael Myers as the man to be afraid of. This could come in the form of Lego.
Why they need the Lego treatment: Lego allows for more exploration of Michael. There’s a chance to see what he’s thinking and his time in the psychiatric unit. This would be a chance to show what he really wants to achieve while killing innocent people.
There is also the comedic element of recreating storylines with Lego. It’s easier to pull Lego body parts off, creating a spoof of the horror movie instead of getting too dark and gritty.
If a true horror was needed, Lego would be the perfect option. The animation opens the door for more gore and blood. It creates the opportunity to step into the world that live action just hasn’t been able to, even with the adaptations of CGI. Fans also don’t have to rely on the acting within the movie, as the animation tells the full story. There is more chance of a reboot success.
