I really think that his image of the movie and a “new” outlook will be good. The first / original movie was good but you really never knew what made Micheal Myers tick. Why did he do what he did. This one from what I have read will dig a little more into the story. It is sometimes good to have a fresh new look into an old story. Look at the new Batman movie, for the life of me I never knew what the three hooks on his arm was for and where did he get his training. So I have a good feeling that Rob Zombie will really open our eyes alot more and really dig into Micheal and the whole story with out making it really cheesy. Thank you and hope to see you at the movies.

“I found it quite odd that John Carpenter doesnâ€™t really care about the remake considering Halloween was probably his most successful film and one that heâ€™ll be remembered for.”

Hey Rusty,

When Zombie said that Carpenter didn’t care, he was pretty lighthearted about it. On one hand, the veteran is probably making the new kid in town feel confident in doing a remake, and on the other hand, the guy is probably sick to death of the series. The fact that he hasn’t come back to direct a sequel speaks volumes. It’s that old double-edged sword in the horror movie genre where what made you also trapped you.

Either that or he’s a bitter old prick who spends most of his waking hours hoping for a Starman sequel. Har har…

And for all you John Carpenter geeks, I found this fan site on MySpace: groups.myspace.com/johncarpenterlives

I found it quite odd that John Carpenter doesn’t really care about the remake considering Halloween was probably his most successful film and one that he’ll be remembered for. You would think it would be near and dear to his heart as it kick started his career.

I seem to recall that in an interview John was disgusted with the sequels and him being asked to direct one (can’t remember which one).

I LOVE Zombie films…i was very weirded out by House of 1000 but then it grew on me. (C’mon it was his first flick and he had shitty actors to deal with). Forget it, Devils Rejects is one of the most awesomely badass horror/thriller movies.
He really dug a niche for himself there. I mean c’mon look at that movie. The cop was “killer.” The dialogue was sweet! The scenes were intense…i believe Zombie has sooo much to offer to horro movies…especially with this new ultraviolent horror scene coming to mainstream. GO ZOMBIE!

I love zombies movies they are great and fun to watch they are funny and scary at the same time when i saw that he was going to do halloween i was like sweetttttt that is gonna be awsome cause i love the halloween movies and with zombie behind it this time it will kick butt!!! This movie needs a fresh new take and showing how micheal myers was when he was a kid to his teens years is a great way to start it off. plus im still waiting on halloween 9 what happens to myers after he opens his eyes.

I can’t wait. When I saw Zombie on his last tour trough town, before the band took to the stage, the Tyler Bates rough cut of the “new” Halloween theme roared at us from the speakers. Pitch black. The auditorium lost its collective mind, it was a great moment to be a horror fan. Surely this not only illustrates the depth of fan interest in the project but that Rob is utterly committed to making a genuine fright flick.

I have a huge amount of respect for Rob Zombie. I’m glad to see he’s brushing off all the internet nerd backlash regarding his film. It’s a professional and healthy approach to dealing with, as he calls it, nonsense.

Even though the films cast looks like the guest list at a Horror con, I’m looking forward to seeing this regardless of what the internet says. Mainly because Zombie’s at the helm.
And that Myers mask kicks serious ass. Finally, some depth and texture has been brought back to look of The Shape. It sure beats the Bill Cosby mask from Halloween 4.

Youre right about not judging until we see the finished product.

But man, its getting a bit off putting seeing casting news every other day. Just how many b movie actors does he plan on cramming into this movie?
