First off, THANK YOU for the tickets. It was a fun experience. Now onto the movie....    Rating: Halloween movie 0  Rob Zombie film 5  I agree with the previous reviewer on almost all aspects. I also enjoyed the first Zombie Halloween very much. But this one.........OH! It was very difficult for me to even keep in mind who these characters were supposed to be.

Brad Dourif as Bracket was the most sympathetic character and least creepy. Everyone else was downright annoying! Loomis has turned into Gale Weathers and Michael was really a homeless guy with a really big knife. I don't want to hear him grunt every time he stabs something and being able to see his face totally takes away any mystery about the character.  Like is said before, if this was a new killer in a new Rob Zombie story then he would be pretty bad ass.

Also as the first reviewer stated. Haddonfield has turned into some backwoods community where no-one owns a mirror. The setting just felt totally different. I also felt that the print was very dark. And HOW can you make a Halloween film without using Carpenters original score. I felt for about 30 sec at the end that i was watching a Halloween movie when the music started.

Now if this movie did not have Halloween in the title i feel i would have a better review. The violence is hard and non-stop, some good kills. And some of the dream sequences we interesting to look at. But overall this is not Halloween and I LIKED, almost LOVED, the first one.  One last note. When i got home last night I watched all the trailers. Out of the 6 min or so of trailers about 30 sec made it into the film.  Being a huge halloween fan, in all carnations, i was left empty. Did'nt care a bit about the characters or what happen to them.
