** out of **** I love John Carpenter's "Halloween". I watch it every year, on that titular holiday, and pretty much anytime else throughout those 365 days. Carpenter's film is the work of a visionary artist; frightening, suspenseful, and entertaining. It has one of the best soundtracks to ANY horror movie, one of the better horror villains out there, and some of the best directing I've seen in any horror film, and I've seen a lot. So when I hear that … more

I'm a major fan of the original and I saw this one with medium hopes that Rob Zombie would give me soemthing worth seeing, but my first instinct about this movie sucking eggs was right. It was a bloody mess. Halloween(or as I like to call it Suckloween.) was a disgrace to the franchise that practical invented the slasher genre. It was too dumb and far too bloody and messy to even try and comprehend the story of the psychotic Michael Myers( no not … more

As far as horror remakes go, I'm usually quick to write them as nothing more than just Hollywood's way of saying they have no other tricks up their sleeve & a remake is perhaps the best thing that could be done. Sadly, horror remakes rarely are as innovative nor as entertaining as the originals & most of them are financial flops at the box office. With the mere exception of perhaps a few, I could very well skip most of them altogether & not miss a beat honestly. In recent years, most … more

It just seems that no one can make an original horror movie these days, something with new characters and a plot that is actually scary. No, instead we are getting these rather bland remakes of great horror films like Halloween, Friday the 13th and now the upcoming reboot of A Nightmare on Elm Street. That, I am scared of because Freddy Kruger was my horror movie idol growing up. Everyone liked Jason, I like Freddy. It just seems that no one wants to take the horror genre seriously … more

Just as we were about to celebrate the 30th anniversary of John Carpenter-the-legend's 1978 classic, we were peek-a-booed by the Rob Zombie remake of Halloween. I will be upfront before I move on, dear reader.The movie is a success as far as remakes go. However, it attempts to define the why of evil and this is where it fails. Pure evil needs little to no definition in horror! The fact that it is simply evil is what makes it horrifying. The … more

The opening of the film is clever and deals with the events leading up to Michael's first murder. I was very happy with the back story of Michael Myers & how brutal his life was & you could almost see day by day how he was driven to kill almost his entire family. Minor details that were simply Rob Zombie's way of putting his mark on the film include a white trash family that Michael allegedly comes from (even though in the original his mother and father seem to be pretty … more
