First Look at the Strode Family From Zombie's 'Halloween'
Monday, March 12, 2007

Today writer/director/producer Rob Zombie posted yet another picture from the set of his re-envisioning of Halloween, which wraps shooting in just two weeks! Inside you'll be the first to see the new Strode family alongside Zombie on set in Pasadena, CA. Click the title above for links to our news pieces and other stills already revealed. After being committed for 17 years, Michael Myers, now a grown man and still very dangerous, is mistakenly released from the mental institution (where he was committed as a 10 year old) and he immediately returns to Haddonfield, where he wants to find his baby sister, Laurie. Anyone who crosses his path is in mortal danger.

I cannot even begin to believe how bad this looks.

i'm holding my opinions until i see the final and finished film. the pictures really mean nothing to me right now.

laurie can do with out the glasses! They dont look good. But the family looks good together!

Amen, Bloodstaind. The picture looks like your average suburban family. Rob must be playing the troubled, headbanger misfit son,(joke).

Not sure how you can tell if this film looks good or bad from this photo. It is merely Zombie taking a photo with the actors! Amazing how fast time is going, only 2 weeks of shooting left. Before the net, it used to feel like forever that these films started, wrapped and were out in theaters. Now it just seems like weeks with all the exposure. The official Halloween fan site has FINALLY updated their site with the recent pics. I was beginning to think maybe Bloody Disgusting was taking over as the official/unofficial fan site!!!

Looks as normal as any other family. What's up Jonny?

The Creeper
7:41pm, March 12, 2007

It's starting to look pretty good. The house reminded me of the one from the original. The Doyle house, I hope that's what it is. I can't wait to see more stuff; like the poster and trailer.

Amanda

Poor little stupid superfry. He has no life and all he could do is cry like a little baby for every little information about this movie. Grow up and grow some balls...

You dirty little ShitStains who believe ya can predict the outcome of this flick are going to be squeezing snot out ya ass and sneezing shit out ya nostrils once this film releases...plus, if you don't like this, then why the fuck are you even commenting? Bitches.

Well, we can look at this two different ways. This movie can either go down in the history books as a masterpiece (The Devil's Reject's) or, go down as a laughable and horrible mistake (House Of A 1000 Corpses) either way, I have prepared myself, but there is no way, I'm missing out on watching the remake. I'll be there supporting the film, fingers crossed and all.

Michael Myers's Overalls
6:10am, March 13, 2007

'The Devil's Rejects' went down in the history books as a masterpiece? LOL, that must've been a history book written by Rob Zombie, I guess. The photo... meh, it's a photo. Nothing can be gleaned from it apart from the fact Rob Zombie is an unkempt hillbilly.

sami

movie looks good..need more updates on it though...i am a fan of halloween and ill check this one out.

Now there is an uninteresting photo.

Sauron
8:27pm, March 13, 2007

Oh joy, Gerard Butler just contracted to play Snake in a remake of Escape from New York. I declare, me thinks Carpenter is selling these flicks for the price of a hot meal at the rate his movies are being reimagined....."

Hey Zombie! Cool picture! I always wondered what happened to Mike's family after him murdering Judy. So a good question from me would be, are you gonna alaberate alittle at least of the strode's where-abouts after their late daughter's death. Maybe I'm just too curious. Oh well.. Anyways, I'm hoping also to see a trailor real soon!

superfry
10:14am, March 14, 2007

Anyone else notice the lack of grammar and/or spelling skills and critical thought in your average zombie fans posts?About the only thing about them that can be taken seriously is that they're allowed to drive,vote and breed.Human sheep.

Guess Who?
11:56am, March 14, 2007

Look who's talking! Try using a comma in it's proper locations. How about some spaces between words. How about some capital letters in proper spots i.e. in the name Rob Zombie. Notice the capital letters in both the first and last names. Also of note, try a capital "I" as in, when you said "i" agree in one of your rocket science post, stupidfly. Put a comma after "vote" and before the word "and" next time STUPIDFLY!

Guess Who?
12:01pm, March 14, 2007

I've got your back, Amanda!

superfry
12:58pm, March 14, 2007

...but you're still a zombie fan.HA HA HA!

Guess Who?
2:05pm, March 14, 2007

Wow. That's such a funny and clever response, STUPIDFLY! I'm suprised you're bright enough to spell out the name of this site. Google searching is a wonderful thing for some grammar students like you. ;)

Sauron
5:13pm, March 14, 2007

Technically, for what it's worth, you do NOT have to have a comma before conjuncting with "and" when listing. While I personally do use a comma, it is a duality of our language that the comma is NOT necessary and can therefore be omitted. For what it's worth.....

joe
6:10pm, March 14, 2007

damn people start fighting.. its the internet.. who cares, i read something about zombie fans compared to a diff set of fans with in the 3 first showing posts. damn u both are looking foolish so quit t

joe
6:11pm, March 14, 2007

haha the best thing i meant was stop not start.. hope u guys dont have a field day with that one.. lol hilarious

Jonny
7:27pm, March 14, 2007

For once it's not me involved in a petty argument. Weird. SUPERFRY, AMANDA, GUESS WHO, and SAURON. Maybe we should all get together over cocktails and discuss our differences in an adult manner. Peace..........

Guess Who?
9:19pm, March 14, 2007

Okay. I will not be the one to break the peace.

Sauron
9:23pm, March 14, 2007

I was simply pointing out that there exists a duality unique to our language when separating ideas through the use of a comma and conjunctive connectors, such as "and". Nothing more......

Sauron
9:24pm, March 14, 2007

Well maybe I felt I had to get Superfry's back on this one.....Anyway no biggie. Not even petty enough to be an arguement......

Jonny
10:06pm, March 14, 2007

Group hug everybody !!!

P.W.
10:24pm, March 14, 2007

Slow news as of late. Everyone is chomping on the bit for more. Hopefully we'll get something new soon.

Sauron
11:08pm, March 14, 2007

Probably not going to happen.....

KDW
1:14am, March 15, 2007

Well, I'm just happy that Rob posted on his site that he never said that he would not use the original theme, that MTV misunderstood him. He makes it clear that music is not even being thought about until filming wraps and that he planned on using the theme all along. I'm glad for that.

superfry
2:43am, March 15, 2007

Thanks,Sauron.You're one of the good ones.I realize I get a little petty sometimes,but DAMN if it isn't fun making 'em squirm sometimes.It sometimes takes a little immaturity to show how ridiculous people can get.It's funny that some peoples idea of rational discussion seems to be to attack the people with an opposing viewpoint rather than giving a rational version of their own.Even to the point of scouring past posts for grammatical errors and Google-ing punctuation just to try to win an arguement.

superfry
2:45am, March 15, 2007

Jonny,you're alright too.For being "one of them".

Jonny
4:14am, March 15, 2007

Well thank's SUPERFRY, but I'm really not one of anything. Just a horror movie fan, major (Original) Halloween fan, who would rather take a shot on a re-imagining than another awful sequel. I think atleast exploring Michael's orgins is a new take that "POSSIBLY" could work. I think most of us could admit that he has not been scary since #2. The rest suck. Sorry if I offend. I just feel that with remakes being the trend, that will continue, this story has a blank hole with Michael and why he is what he is. I always thought a prequel was around the bend with a movie that followed Michael in the asylum all those years. So why not take a shot and see if this work's. Like I've said a ba-zillion times, Carpenter's version is always a DVD (or VHS) away.This wont ruin anything (see Hitchcock's "PSYCHO"). We got nothing to lose.

Guess Who?
7:50am, March 15, 2007

Superfly. My apologies. I thought that you were picking on Amanda and her post. Looking back carefully, I've come to find I made a mistake. It was Amanda who singled you out. Please accept my offering of peace. My bad! I am not trying to win any arguments, but simply thought I would help someone. I'm no Zombie lover. Both of his movies were garbage, and I actually agree with your post. There you have it, peace.

Ramone...
11:18am, March 15, 2007

and his relatives love you all. Except for Jonny. Just kidding. Ramone will register shortly and become a full fledged member. Or get banned. I'm glad there is peace in the land. And I promise I won't be a pain.

superfry
11:21am, March 15, 2007

Hey,Jonny,to respond to a point you made in your last post,I don't think I would have as much of a problem with zombie filling in the blanks if 1)He didn't want to change things that are already established(Myers characterization,for one)& 2)He didn't feel he has to "white trash"it up,he's used that stereotype up in his other films.That shit's old and shows his limitations.If not for those 2 main points I would probably share your "conscientious objector" status.

Guess Who?
11:40am, March 15, 2007

What's Superfry. No response to my post. I just wanted to apologize.

Guess Who?
11:41am, March 15, 2007

My bad. That was supposed to say "What's up, Superfry"

superfry
11:43am, March 15, 2007

To,Guess Who?:Apology accepted.I wouldn't dish it out if I couldn't take it.And yes,zombies films are garbage.I just don't get the love for THE DEVILS RETARDS.Just because it was a slight improvement (directorially,but not the script,"TUTTY-FUCKIN'-FRUITTY!")people treat zombie like a retarded kid who finally learned that the square peg goes in the square hole(Good boy,robbie!)and are anxious to see what he can do with the round one.If anyone else had made the same 2 movies they'd be languishing in direct-to-video hell by now.If his name weren't marketable to carry over fans from his music,he would be too.Here I go stirring the pot again(sigh)...

superfry
11:45am, March 15, 2007

I think I was writing my reply to you while you were typing your last post.

Guess Who?
11:57am, March 15, 2007

Agreed! Thanks. As for Ramone...be good! LOL

Ramones Momma...
12:46pm, March 15, 2007

Ramone is such a good boy... a good good boy... he reminds me so much of his granpa "Ramones Granpa."

Jonny
1:22pm, March 15, 2007

SUPERFRY, I feel your concerns. I'm not sure Zombie's vision will work, but as I said, I'm willing to give it a shot. Who know's, maybe he will surprise us. It can't be worse then any of the sequels. By the way, good conversation fella's. We all don't agree on everything, but that's what makes the boards a good way to debate without insult's because of opinions. Even you RAMONE, I can welcome you back. PEACE to all......

superfry
1:44pm, March 15, 2007

Jonny,I'll be curious to to hear your review after it comes out.One thing's for certain I will NOT see it in theaters.But if someone unbiased,such as you seem to be,can give a detailed critique it MIGHT get me to rent it on PPV.MIGHT.I don't feel comfortable supporting this trend of pointless remakes geared to cash in on the name value of classic,proven franchises.

Jonny
3:54pm, March 15, 2007

SUPERFRY. I can understand your stance. This remake is a touchy subject for most fans of the movie. I'm extremely curious to see it and will see it in the theater. I have no problem reporting that it's awful if it indeed is. But I'll give it a positve review if I like it which I'm sure I'll take heat for. I'm just keeping an open mind.

RamoneOfTheDead
4:27pm, March 15, 2007

4 things... 1 - I am now registered - so I can be banned for any verbal indiscretions - thanks. 2 - My name is because I'm a Ramones fan - not a guy named Ramone. 3 - It would be nice to have my name auto fill. 4 - I agree with Superfry - I will see the Zombie movie as soon as it comes out on PPV - only if it gets objectively good reviews. (Jonnys won't count) : ^)

superfry
7:51pm, March 15, 2007

Hey Ramone!GOOBA GABBA WE ACCEPT YOU!ONE OF US,ONE OF US!

Sauron
8:59pm, March 15, 2007

Wow, I'm gone for a couple of hours and this thing blows up into one big Forrest Gump lovefest. Anyway, just for conversation, Carpenter has been quoted as saying in the past that part 2 is about as scary as an episode of Qunicy. Jack Klugman lives.....

I heard there's an orgy goin' on in here.Where da white wimmin at?!?

The Englishman
4:52am, March 16, 2007

Ive got to be honest, I have seen the MTV clips and the setting doesnt look all that bad at all. With regards to the mask debate, it looks the same as the original film but just slightly dirty. Laurie looks attractive enough and the family looks normal. Do you think it might be best to wait until the film has been viewed before rash judgement has been cast upon? Tally ho.

Humanremains
5:13pm, March 16, 2007

Who's the chick with the hat on?

Sauron
9:18pm, March 16, 2007

Could we get an update here people? All the flame I wanna hurl at ROB is burning me up being contained by the lack of news. Just thought I'd share how my petty aspirations are supposed to motivate everyone else to acquiesce to my every whim and fancy (wait a minute, isn' that ROB's job).....

KDW
1:56pm, March 17, 2007

Humanremains, I will answer your question with a question. Do you not recognize your girlfriend when you see her?

superfry
2:14pm, March 17, 2007

Who the hell is that guy in the background?What a dork!Did that moron zombie hire him to sneak into the background of this still?Is this one of zombie's infamous "homages"?Is he paying "homage" to the "Just a guy..."scene in KIDS IN THE HALL:BRAIN CANDY(if you've seen it you probably know what I'm talking about)?Is he a zombie stalker(remember to aim for the head)?And when the hell are we going to get something new to bitch about?I'm starting to forget this thing's even being made.I can't wait for this to come out so I can ignore it.Ignore it with all my might!

daveberg
12:29pm, March 18, 2007

Then do us all a favour, if you wish to ignore it so badly, leave us in peace and stop whining about things you cannot change. Jesus, get a clue mate.
