I really do hope people agree with me on this.to me this is not a bad remake and I'll tell you why.this film may feel like carpenter's,but it's truly all zombie.I really do have love for this remake.and if you seem to hate this movie,well put it this way,at least it ain't as terrible as other remakes like "nightmare on elm street" "friday the 13th" and "the texas chainsaw massacre" maybe cause michael bay wasn't involved with producing the film with his company platinum dunes,thank god,sorry Bay.but this film is not that bad.Rob Zombie does prove that it is to creat a pretty descent remake.now yeah it has it's flause,but it's not bad either,it's between good and bad,it's okay. |

Zombie gives us a so-so re-make of a classic that is more like two re-makes in one. The first half is an origin story, of sorts, and the second is a sped up retelling of the first. I can't forgive the second half for being too much like the original, but I do like how he made the whole thing feel like a 70's splatter flick. |

Just see the original |
|
When I watched the original Halloween I just remember thinking "this needs more boob and blood." Oh wait no I didn't. One thing thats been lost on the horror genre is that we as an audience don't need to see everything. We all have our imaginations and most of the time that can be a whole lot scarier then anything that can be put on screen. I don't need to see every single gory detail of the murder just the person being killed by the killer can be scary enough. Also why did we need the rape scene. It did nothing to further the plot except in telling us that Michael got out while two red necks were raping a girl. The theater version didn't have the rape and I didn't have any issues with how he got out. The only positive from this movie is that it does a good job of giving a back story too ... |

Halloween Review |
|
Now here's a remake worth talking about. I was worried really bad about this movie being torn apart badly. Because face it Rob Zombie is not a good director. But Halloween will rank as his best try to be one. Michael Myers is the best horror genre killer there is in my opinon. Rob Zombie captured him on camera at his best which was amazing Michael looked darker than ever and meaner than ever. Rob Zombie took Myers and made him believable. Tyler Mane's performance as Myers will be his best ever. Malcolm McDowell had a good perfomance but won't pass Donald Pleasence as Dr. Loomis nobody will I don't care how hard you try. Scout Taylor Compton did ok. This won't sky rocket her career as a actress like it did Jamie Lee Curtis, sorry only works once. Brad Dourif Did Great as Sheriff Bracket gl... |

Great Classic Brought to Life Again |
|
Although I never watched the original series, I thought Halloween was a great movie. There was enough outside story to make me relax, which made the trilling moments seem more extreme.
The acting, along with the writing of the script, seemed very realistic in my perspective. The movie brought the old clique of horror, but added just enough of everything to make the movie not seem cheesy or normal. While I try to do other things while I'm watching a movie, I just couldn't tear my eyes away from the screen.
All the nice things being said, there was only one things I really didn't like in the movie and that was the music choice. Of course, the original theme was in there, which was really nice, but the rest of the music somehow didn't fit the mood at all. When some music played, I felt... |
