Hmm my post is a little late but i got to see a midnight showing on the 29th. I was really debating as to go or not to go because i myself am highly against remakes. I let a friend whose opnions i trusted on horror films convince me to go with him. I didnt go in with high expectations and im glad becuase i would have been severly let down. I completely hated that movie but then again i really really didnt like devils rejects that much either. I didnt mind house of 1000 corpses but then again i wouldnt want to own it and the last time i saw it was when it was in theatres. The only reaction zombies halloween got out of me was a gasp when i realized that brad douriff was playing the sheriff and seeing how much he has aged. But i completely feel that i wasted 8 bucks.

WELL, ALL RIGHT. This movie is poo nuts, and Michael Myers isn't scary any more, he is just a little poo nut.

Personally...
IMO, In any movie almost, if you go in looking for flaws and go in wanting to be dissapointed you will be. I think so many people hold the original to dear to their hearts, and when this one didn't do the same thing for them that the original did they automatically didn't like it.
I havent watched the entire thing but heres my take on it. For one thing: EVERYONE knows that michael myers is the killer already from the first 3 movies, so rob zombie trying to hide his identity and make him all mysterious would have been total pointless and would've looked like he was trying to just copy the first, and would have done nothing for tension. Secondly, the Film is COMPLETELY original, and I'm glad it is, Rob Zombie is Rob Zombie, and i'm glad he stuck to doing this film his way, that way we have a fresh look at this story. Thirdly: There are no movies that come out that really scare us in the same way that movies like nightmare on elm street did, or the original halloween did. Because we have been desensitized to that kinda stuff, and we are expecting more action and more gore. I hadn't seen the original before like 3 month ago, and to be honest I got a little bored in some parts, the violence was totally unrealistic, and took away from the scariness of the film IMO, I mean a girl gets her throat cut and no red line where she was cut, no blood gushing out no nothing. To really scare viewers now adays, you need a mix of some different elements, take the movie The Descent: This is one of the best horror films I have ever seen. There was bucketloads of tension, not because they hid the monsters, but because the monsters were genuinely creepy, and could strike at any moment, in very painful ways. the movie was hella violent, and grossed me out in several parts, this added to the tension big time. Another thing that you need is human drama to add to the tension. the Glamorization of smoking and drinking in the first halloween, and premarital sex was so stupid to me, and it seemed like a propaganda film, I just couldn't relate to the characters in that film, they were airheads. So just cause a movie freaked you out big time when you were 13 and you still have nightmares because of it, you shouldn't let that affect your view of a totally different film. Seriously, the only thing similar in the new halloween are some of the characters, and I'm glad it's like that. |

I just got back from watching Halloween. I was 1 of 6 people in the theatre, but it's a week day afternoon.
Halloween The acting was fine, but the characters were all one dimensional cliches. The gore was plentiful, but not original. The plot abandoned logic on several ocasions and the haunting atmosphere of the original was nowhere to be found. Rob Zombie took one of the Top 5 horror films of all time and remade it into a completely average, run of the mill, slasher film. Graphic violence, tons of swearing and plenty of nudity is usually a recipe for a great horror film in my book, but not when it's a remake of Halloween. Original - Minimal swearing, Remake- Maximum swearing Original - Minimal onscreen violence, Remake - Maximum onscreen violence Original - No nudity, Remake - Plenty of nudity Original - Haunting atmosphere, Remake - No atmosphere Original - Solid script, Remake - Illogical script Original - A, Remake C+ C+

You might be right. I should rephrase that to say it wasn't a focal point of the original, whereas Zombie seemed to rely heavily on it.
