When Halloween 7 went into preproduction back in 1997-98, an Michael Myers mask photograph leaked to the web. It caused quite the uproar. It was a nice looking mask, except for one thing; it had distinctly blue lips. Horror fans don't tend to ever like change, so this was a catastrophe. Nobody knew where the image came from, but it was thought to have come from the prop department on the film. They were going to change Michael up! Heavens no! Same same same same! Apparently, however, the image came from a costume store developer and that was to be one of their masks the following fall and had nothing to do with Halloween 7. But, who knows, maybe it was a cover up story after the studio heard the fan backlash. It wasn't like Halloween 7 wasn't afraid to change or try a different mask midshot either.
