The first should’ve never been made. What John Carpenter did with the classic 1978 Halloween was phenomenal, and not just scarred us, but scared us without using gore or loud noises. Rob Zombie made a mess.

First off , the original Halloween is one of my favorite movies. To this day it’s STILL intense. I saw the remake and even though it was good there was no intensity. I did like the backstory though. That’s usually par for the course though with remakes. Nothing much ( if anything ) added to the story , but more special effects. Alfred Hitchcock didn’t need them.

I like what they did with this franchise, I think Zombie did a great job with the last film. A reboot was good, since any additions to the previous continuity would just have been more of the same. If you love those films, you still have them, and they are still what they were before. But there was no need to continue that story.

The reimagined version from Zombie has taken it in a new direction, and taken a new spin on it. Some will like it, some won’t. But what’s the point of remaking the film identical to the first one anyway? That’s even more pointless than adding another pointless sequel.

So I’m interested to see where Zombie takes him in this sequel. Zombie certainly has a great mind for horror. Looking forward to this!

I’ll watch this one too. I like the mask honestly. Where Zombie’s version of this film failed was the lack of suspense. I dug the back story cause it was something different instead of another sequel with him running around and killing people. The back story was interesting and I enjoyed that more than when he ended up coming home and killing people. I can see that Zombie spent so much time on the back story, he had to make the eventual return quick, violent, and to the point. That’s where I thought it fell. The way Carpenter built it up throughout that whole day (so to speak) in the movie was fantastic and creepy.

I was let down by Zombies first attempt at Halloween, which is odd because I loved House of 1000 Corpses and the sequel to that.

I read on another site that there’s a two year gap between Halloween and H2 during which time Myers has been living in the wild. Apparently 70% of film will have Myers sporting a shaggy beard.

sounds like fun, eh?

I hated the first one. well, maybe not “hated” but I sure didn’t care for it. The first half was pure Zombie, the characters seemed like carry-overs from Devil’s Rejects, while the second half seemed like a carbon copy of the Carpenter film.

though I do like the raunchy mask. lol
