The FREAK has chimed in... Now please, no mama talkin' now, that is just rude! I'm her to shine a ray of light and hope to everyone... NOT REALLY!! I will reiderate that I have mixed feelings about all this with an honest feeling toward the skeptical. I know a lot of people are drooling over this film for the mere fact that they are Zombie fans. Nothing wrong with that. We all have our personal reasons why we like or dislike this movie (that hasn't been released yet). That is cool, but the ZOMBIE fans should acknowledge that instead of ripping the folks that are concerned over this film. I would be willing to bet that a number of the Zombie-ites have no clue or no interest in the original Halloween or maybe the series for that matter. It's all about Rob. Nothing wrong with that, but aknowledge that. I like some of Rob's tunes, but movies?? There are a number of folks here that ARE true Halloween fans. With that, I mean the orgininal and maybe (just maybe a sequal or two). The true Halloween fans want something that has been lacking since the first movie and they don't think that Zombie has mojo to do it. Yada yada yada,right? Wrong! I've seen both Zombie's movies and I didn't like either one of them. Sorry to you who like them, but I thought they sucked! You could tell from the get-go there was not a lot of thought, effort, or even production value put behind them. I saw better stuff from some of the rejected contestants from the TV show "The Lot." I'm not calling John Carpenter a master, but he certainly lived up to that title when it came to Halloween. Just by comparing "Halloween" to "House of... Corpses" and "Rejects" is like comparing Earl Schibe to Rembrandt in that respect. Also, other points of interest: Zombie said he wasn't going to shoot multiple endings... he did. He also said he was going rely on suspense like the first movi.... ahem... Doesn't look like it when you can obviously see it is a splatterfest. Why didn't Zombie want to make a NEW movie to save the series? Why recreate the origninal? Was it because he couldn't envision a new storyline? Was it because it would be pretty easy to work with a proven story line, just filling in the gaps here and there? Honestly, I don't know. I guess a lot of filmakers have revisioned and remade lesser films, but how many classics have been remade or "revisioned"? Look it up... There has not been that many. Why? Because it doesn't work. Will it work this time? We'll see. Hell, I'm going. I may love it and I may hate it but I'm going in with an opened mind. Zombie's record is 0-2 as far as I'm concerned, but I'm going to be watching intently and will evaluate at that time.
