Legacy sequels are a fun part of horror franchises and are not new. Yes, they’ve hit a fever pitch in the last few years. But actors from prior sequels returning later in the franchise are a genre feature, not a bug. Marilyn Burns returned to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre franchise nearly twenty years after she escaped in the back of a truck (albeit in an unnamed role, but *Dennis Reynolds Voice* the implication is there). Freddy Krueger menaced Heather Langenkamp over a decade after the original A Nightmare On Elm Street. Jamie Lee Curtis returned to the Halloween franchise twenty years after the first, and then again, twenty years later!
