Quentin Tarantino's Unrealized Halloween Movie Became Michael Myers' Divisive Final Twist

Quentin Tarantino's concept for a Halloween sequel involved Michael Myers on a road trip killing people. While Tarantino's exact idea was never executed, echoes of it can be found in the plot for Halloween Ends. Halloween Ends featured the divisive subplot of Corey Cunningham teaming up with Michael Myers, contradicting the established "Shape" character.
