You know what made Myers so scary in the original movie? The fact that he came from a normal, suburban middle class family. In the remake they had to give him a reason- his lame white trash faimly (Zombie’s old, one trick pony gimmick). How predictable coming from Zombie. The Original Myers was scary because of how normal his environment was. That he was just damaged from the start. The remake trashed that, and so much more. The characters, the acting, the directing, etc. Laughable. One of the worst remakes I have ever seen, if not THE worst. How can I get my wasted time back? Agh.

Now for me, I don’t think the movie would have been half bad if they would have picked that tall girl that was her friend instead of that short girl. She acted nothing like Laurie in the movie. Also, in the original Halloween movies, Laurie’s hair was SHORT and she DIDNOT wear glasses. The girls’ acting was amateur at best.

The moral of this is: Never do a remake. 99% of the time, they suck.

did it have to have so many naked women?

I mean seriously!

Here is my beef with Halloween by Rob Zombie. Just like Lukas wasted a whole movie on baby Darth Vader and another Movie on baby Bobba Fett, this movie spent way too much time on Baby Michael Myers. That and it had every cheesy scene from every slasher film before it. This film breaks no new ground and isn’t very scary. Its very trite and very predictable.

This movie was a total waste of Malcom McDowell who is an excellent actor. But even the best actor on the planet can’t breathe life into crap. Tyler Mane was the man under the mask of grown up Michael Myers and his shear size shows in this film, but with no lines thats all he is. A really big guy in a mask. He was far better as Sabertooth in the X-Men series, but this isn’t his fault. He had no lines and the script didn’t make him scary enough.

Rob Zombie should stick to making his music.
