Movie Review
Grade: B+
Halloween was a tired franchise. Started nearly thirty years ago, the adventures of silent killer Michael Myers had become trite. Some of the many sequels were okay, even entertaining, but none even came close to living up to the creepy simplicity of the original John Carpenter film. That is, until Rob Zombie took over.

Halloween Sucked, by Zombie-Lover
September 7, 2007
This movie is a sad reflection of a classic horror movie and sign of the times where there is a genuine lack of imagination and originality in Hollywood. It was so much of a copy of the original that there were hardly any surprises. The acting was surprisingly better than expected however the remake is simply a cheap immitation of one of the finest horror movies ever made. Instead of remaking good horror movies into bad ones I would suggest Rob Zombie remake bad horror movies into good ones. I suspect his next effort will be to remake the Excorcist throw a bit more depth into Satan and ruin the film too. Stick to making music Rob.
