Should of left well alone.
If your looking for a straight remake of the original don't look here.
Rob Zombie has totally changed the film around, the film is mainly about young Myers instead of the real scares of when hes older. Now instead of coming from a well to do American family, Michael Myers now comes from a broken home, instead of being a fairly normal kid who went mad on Halloween night (while wearing a clown costume for trick or treat) hes been turned into a more feminine if anything slightly backward kid who has a fixation with a stupid clown mask?!
The casting is awful, whoever cast the young Michael missed the mark and now older Michael has long hair and doesn't seem the mindless monster he is in the original. The acting is woeful at best and the dialogue awful, its as if Zombie was going for the record of bad language in a film. Malcolm Mcdowell does his best to hold it together but unfortunately its a lost cause. This version is much more gory then the original but doesn't have half the scares. A complete waste, this remake had big potential but Zombie messed it up big time, hes really missed the point of the Legend of Michael Myers. Rent the original instead its a much better film even though it was made nearly 30 years ago. -

His next project is a new version of B-movie classic The Blob - but once that's complete, he plans to leave the horror genre behind. The director tells the Chicago Tribune, "The movies I've made up to this point have been pretty Read more
