No, he's not battling the producers of the recent remake. This court battle will involve the original film's distributor Compass International Pictures and horror producer Irwin Yablans. Carpenter sued the two in Los Angeles Superior Court Jan. 14 because they have failed to provide quarterly accounting and payments since 2004 for the original HALLOWEEN. The court documents claim this breaches their 1977 agreement.

No word yet on how much money is owed.

Payments stopped in 2004 you say. Wonder when Zombie started shopping his remake around.
