Budweiser may not even make a pumpkin beer, but they nevertheless managed to win Halloween this year with one of the coolest commercials we’ve honestly ever seen.

The commercial, which comes from Brazilian agency Africa, pays tribute to John Carpenter and the writing fuel that helped him bring Michael Myers back for Halloween II: Budweiser!

Carpenter has indeed credited six-packs of Budweiser for getting him through the process of writing the 1981 sequel, and the commercial imagines those late night sessions.

For now, it’s the closest we’ve gotten to that Carpenter biopic we’ve been asking for!

Hat tip to Fangoria’s Phil Nobile Jr. for bringing this gem to our attention.
