A wise man once said, "Don't lose any sleep over being called a 'blind fanboy' by a guy who refers to himself as 'sauroncannotbestopped'. If anyone had actually touted Zombie's HALLOWEEN as the greatest cinematic event since BEN-HUR, or even as better than or equal to Carpenter's original, I'd have said they were crazy myself. But since most of us who are optimistic about this movie have a far better sense of historical perspective than those who are pulling their hair out worrying that this movie will somehow diminish the legacy of the original, I can only chuckle at such a sociopathic reaction to a few movie stills. A moment's quiet, rational examination of the optimism about the film expressed here and on other horror sites will reveal that all of us who have hope for the film only want it to be A)better than most of the sequels and B) better than most modern horror remakes. The reviews over at AICN from people who have actually SEEN the movie already indicate that it is both of those things. No one - not even Rob Zombie himself - expects or claims that this film will be equal to or an improvement over Carpenter's original, and for those of us with a more level-headed world view, it doesn't have to be in order to be worth nine dollars or our money and ninety minutes of our time. It only has to be good in its own way. All of the evidence to this point (including these stills) indicates that it will be. I won't even address the childishness of calling the film "gay", except to remind you that Jimbo Jones and the other bully characters on THE SIMPSONS once said the same thing about Nelson Muntz when they saw him kissing a girl. The slur is equally accurate and mature as used here.
