I really like Rob Zombie’s music… as a director however… well let’s just say that in my opinion he should stick to his music. But, he is a big name… and when you’re a big name people assume you can do anything. However, when you’re a big name people also write down things you say…
Take for instance this quote from Rob… who just directed a REMAKE of the Halloween film. Here’s something Rob said about remakes and those who make them back in 2002. So tell us Rob… what do you think about doing remakes?:
I feel it’s the worst thing any filmmaker can do. I actually got a call from my agent and they asked me if I wanted to be involved with the remake of Chain Saw. I said no fucking way! Those movies are perfect – you’re only going to make yourself look like an asshole by remaking them. Go remake something that’s a piece of shit and make it good. Like with my movie (House of 1000 Corpses) I have elements of Chain Saw in it because I love that movie so much, but I wouldn’t dare want to “remake” it. It’s like a band trying to be another band.
Hmmmm… interesting. (via MoviesOnline)
