Halloween (2007) |
Posted on Oct 16, 2007 at 9:13 am by DrBlood
Not as bad as some of the sequels to the original Halloween, and Sheri Moon can actually act a bit in this one, but it was obviously more than Rob Zombie could handle. The dialogue and script were appalling. It should have been two separate films and even then both would have sucked. The "prequel" was just overlong and boring.
The "remake" part, on the other hand, was rushed and lacked atmosphere, characterisation, acting ability and, more suprisingly, imaginative gore. I expected it to be far nastier. Effects were only average and the camerawork was very amateur throughout. Don't expect it to be scary either because it isn't. The only scary thing is that it took 17 million dollars to make this rubbish.
Michael Myers has been totally emasculated as the boogeyman now and this film has killed the "Halloween" franchise completely.
Nobody can replace Donald Pleasence as Dr Loomis either. Malcolm McDowell was just on the wrong side of laughable with some of the worst lines in horror movie history. Well, at least we won't see him again... I hope.
Just stick to the original John Carpenter version. |

I completely agree. I had to turn it off in the middle because I couldn't take it any longer. Regretfully, I finished watching it at a different date. Trying to make a prequel was understandable (even thought it sucked), but attempting to remake the original classic was a mistake in the first place.
