"I'm normally not a fan of re-makes of films that are already considered classics in their own right,but,regardless of wether or not Rob Zombie said yes,if he would have said no then I'm sure they would have made the film with some director that probably does'nt even like the horror genre.I believe Zombie has a love for the genre and for John Carpenters original work,and it shows in this version.You can tell Zombie put alot of thought into the story,re-tracing Micheal's story all the way from his childhood so we can see why Micheal had become the heartless souless killer he is(wich definetly had my curiosity up as I enjoy seeing the origins of any iconic charector)and what motivated him.I loved the film from begining to end and am looking forwward to the next chapter and how it will be told.

"Though the third Fast and the Furious installment, Tokyo Drift, wasn’t a huge box office disappointment with its $63 million domestic gross, it was significantly less successful than its predecessors, The Fast and the Furious ($145 million) and 2 Fast 2 Furious ($127 million). A fourth film would normally see an even bigger drop in box office receipts, but next week’s Fast & Furious has a good chance of actually being the highest-grossing film in the series yet, due to the return of original cast members Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordanna Brewster and, most im "

"It hasn’t been terribly uncommon since the late ’60s for musicians to get behind the camera, whether for a straight concert film, a tour documentary or some kind of silly narrative focused on themselves and their bands. Jerry Garcia co-directed The Grateful Dead, Frank Zappa co-directed 200 Motels, The Beatles collectively co-directed The Magical Mystery Tour and separately John, Paul and Ringo has each taken the helm on a film project, some more artsy (John and Yoko’s cinematic collaborations, like Up Your Legs Forever) or less self-focused (Ringo’s Marc Bolan doc, Born to Boogie) than others. Now it’s a little more common for musicians to become directors of fictional films that aren’t so reflexive. Many don’t even have anything to do with music at all. And many are so awful that it’s safe to say the filmmaker should stick to mus "

"The thing I like about Rob Zombie is he is doing this because he wants to. He doesn't need the money, he has a fan base and lets face it, making movies is one of the hardest thing you can put yourself through. Rob does this because he has a passion for it. Nothing is better than taking a journey with a filmmaker that is there purely to share the experience with you. I must admit when I went in to watch this remake I had my doubts, but within minutes I was swept up by the great characters and could not wait to see this new side of a story I thought I already new. Rob really seems to be able to connect with his actors and together they reach levels of intense emotion and a sense of realism that puts you right there in the moment. Sherri Moon Zombie kicked ass in what may be one of her finest moments to date as young Michael's mom. We got to see a new side of her that showed she can really go to those dark places. It would have been real easy to have the audience sympathizing with yo ... "

"Hi, my name is Minjoe and I have a problem with this movie. "What's your problem with it Minjoe?" Ummm, you remember the original correct? "vaguely." Let me refresh you. Michael Myers is institutionalized. We know he kills his sister in the original but we don't know what led up to that night other than him apparently being an evil kid. "Ah yes, I recall. But the remake filled in the gaping plot hole by showing you the man behind the mask and why he became the killer he was." Right, and in theory, that sounds like a good idea. However, you didn't show us the man behind the mask, you showed us the boy--and when you take a character that was great because he was essentially the incarnation of evil and turn him into an angst-filled kid who doesn't have the best home life it takes something away from the film I think. In the original we are left to let our imaginations run wild with why a small child would knife a family member, in the new one we are to presume its because he was ... "

"Remaking a movie which has already spawned seven sequels is a daunting task. It´s akin to seeing an NBA logo which isn´t Jerry West. The colors are the same, the idea is there but something is different. It doesn´t feel quite right. In the case of Rob Zombie´s remake of John Carpenter´s "Halloween," the characters exist in the universe and the situation is familiar; the artistry and the magic of the original film is lost in a veritable orgy of blood and profanity. Oh yeah, and a William Shatner mask. As a young child, Michael Myers is doted on by a loving mother despite the rest of his world falling around him. He´s harassed at school with pictures of the only person he admires in the world (his mother, who is an exotic dancer); Mom´s live-in lover, Ronny, demeans Michael at every turn; he´s stood up on Halloween by his sister so she can spend "quality" time with her boyfriend. Something inside him snaps, prompting the first of many k ... "

"This was better than any other remake. Rob Zombie really did a great job in remaking Halloween.I hope he remake other movies such as It,Pet Cemetery,Friday the 13th,and other great movies. My favorite part was when Michael broke out of prison. This one and Halloween 6 are my favorites. "
