Zombie thoughts.

I like all three of his films. Roger Ebert gave a very positive review to THE DEVIL'S REJECTS. Why does this matter? Ebert is a mainstream critic; it's always important when a mainstream critic acknowledges any genre film; ZOMBIE loves TOBE HOOPER and apparently has an affection for the film,SPIDER BABY as well. The HALLOWEEN remake is decent ,but it really is part prequel and part remake. I really didn't like it at all at first; however, I very much enjoyed it after I bought it on dvd. I think ZOMBIE really is the most important auteur of the genre of the macabre at the moment. He's had three money making films in a row; the first two had some mainstream critical acknowledgement. The third ,well, is an interesting mess.
