Tom Towles (Grindhouse, The Devil's Rejects, House of 1000 Corpses) is the latest to join the cast of Rob Zombie's Halloween remake, which is now filming in Los Angeles. He joins Tyler Mane, Malcolm McDowell, Daeg Faerch, Pat Skipper, Dee Wallace Stone, Sheri Moon Zombie, William Forsythe, Ken Foree, Danielle Harris, Adrienne Barbeau, Clint Howard, Courtney Gains, Daryl Sabara, Brad Dourif, Udo Kier, Kristina Klebel and many more. Zombie's vision of this film is an entirely new take on the legend and will satisfy fans of the classic "Halloween" legacy while beginning a new chapter in the Michael Myers saga. "This is a bit of a prequel and a remake, combined," says Zombie.

Finally! A casting decision that I can get behind..Otis!! I could care less about what he did with Zombie..Mcnaughton's Henry was his seminal role.

hi there...any washed up has beens from the 70s/80s who want a role in my new porn/halloween remake? not only do i have a bunch of shitty ideas, and creative ways to change the backgrounds of the plot and characters of the original, but i also can't make up my mind how much of a prequel, how much of a remake, how much of a re-imagining i want to do. i don't really know much about making movies other than copying and paying respect to 70's films like texas chainsaw and last house on the left, but i figure i can fit all of my bullshit in this movie with a nice running time of 3 hours. so if you ever starred in some old cult classic and want to earn a paycheck again, come by the set and we will throw you in. plus it bails me out...everytime some old relic appears, it will make the people forget that they are watching a shitty film. don't worry about any negative press from the media and internet, i post responses for people "not to make up their mind before they see it", and "plot details are twisted/scary to weed out pretty actors from casting calls" and "the mystery and unknown angle has been done before, don't you want other same old same old devil rejects style, err...i mean don't you want something fresh?". believe it or not, most of my asskissing fans swallow my spin-doctoring like little faggots. so allow me to ruin the legacy of a classic. (p.s. i love when my fanboys tell my haters not to worry, that carpenter's original won't go away...its so witty and and insightful. continue to follow me blind fanboys!!)

Johnny, you're exempt from this in the spirit of our allience of darkness. To all else who still are deluding themselves with sugary thoughts that somehow, someway "ROB" is going to drastically alter the script and salvage this little debacle goto said link.....http://www.movieweb.com/news/39/17539.php.....I believe it clearly states that the composer has the"FINAL" script, is working from it, will be getting the "dailies" to edit the music, AND HAS BEEN DOING SO FOR SOME TIME.....Therefore, one could safely deduce that there won't be any major departures from now seeing as the other elements are working as they film. You got it folks, right out of a real person's (connected to the movie) mouth. Not the mad rumblings of a prejudicial Zombie hater. Mr. D, would this qualify as a news post???

Hello Sauron,I'm still kickin around. Maybe WE should right the script? I'm still gonna take the optimistic approach. I'm just hoping we get a cool flick out of whatever this becomes. Thank's for the info on the script site, I will check it out and get back. Like I said, there's good and bad things I like about RZ's script.As we see more and more pictures and details, somebody (you or I),could turn in the other direction. Let's stay tuned...

It's rumored that Tom Towles will actually play the role of a bag of weed in this movie. During his audition, Rob Zombie commented on his "incredible acting talents" and said something about having the munchies and wanting to smoke him. NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Mt. Helen's Boys and Girls Choir have been confirmed to join the cast of Zombie's Halloween, each donning traditional fall colors of brown, red, orange and yellow as they play fallen leaves. Mr. Zombie has stated that their exceptional vocal ability will add a touch of much-needed realism for both falling, and crunching, leaves.
