Kinda stoked that the mask in the film looks a lot like my first high-end Myers mask from the old mask company Cemetery Gate Productions. Made from very thick latex, the features always reminded me almost of doll-like features. But I'm thinking of bringing it out of retirement for the newly-established annual tradition of the post-Halloween neighborhood walkabout (mind you, ALL of this could just be pre-Halloween-trailer nonsense and excitement talking).

I have it on fairly good authority that the new mask is primarily based on one of Justin Mabry's sculpts from Trick Or Treat Studios. They used one of his masks as the model for the base sculpt, then studied the deterioration on masks that were roughly the age the original one was. They didn't use the original mask's deterioration as a guide, because it has been subjected to much different environmental factors than the fictional mask. They tried to get the look of a mask that has been kept in the dark, crumpled up in a box full of evidence. Mostly intact, but wrinkled from not being properly stored.
