Brad Loree’s playlist

Of all the actors and stuntmen who’ve worn the ghastly mask of psycho slasher Michael Myers in the Halloween franchise, Brad Loree is special.

This Canadian’s version of the boogeyman is the one that finally caught up to Jamie Lee Curtis’ elusive heroine, Laurie Strode.

“I had to pinch myself,” Brad says about working with the Hollywood legend in the saga’s eighth installment, Halloween: Resurrection.

“I was nervous, but Jamie was so real, grounded and sweet. She’s fantastic.”

While Brad is now best known for his role in the horror flick, Halloween is definitely not the biggest production he has been on board.

“I’ve done stunt work for X-Men 2, X-Men 3, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and Cabin in the Woods,” Brad says to name a few.

The stuntman also landed acting roles in TV’s Smallville, Supernatural, Stargate SG-1 and the 1994 sci fi blockbuster, Time Cop, opposite Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Brad Loree unmasked

“I always wanted to be an actor, even early on as a kid,” he says.

But the young and hopeful Brad had crippling confidence issues to work out first.

As it turns out, Brad’s childhood insecurities were nothing a little Goju-Ryu Karate couldn’t fix.

Brad mastered the martial art and never held his head down again.

This is Brad’s thematic playlist. Artists who kick ass.
