Halloween Remake!!

Looking on KMC, I found the following article regarding a remake of a cult classic.

http://www.killermovies.com/u/untitledhalloweenremake/articles/6222.html

It would appear that Rob Zombie is taking the reigns from great John Carpenter.

Edit: Sorry, I didn't notice that a thread about this has already been created.

wtf, not another ****in prequel or one of those the beginning storys. The Halloween series is already completely ****ed up, this is coming from the biggest halloween fan of all time, and they need to make a movie where they explain the connection of 1,2,4,5,6,7 and 8, because right now it goes 1,2,7 and 8, youll understand what im saying if you are a halloween fanatic like myself

dude there are already 2 halloween threads on the new movie.but anyways getting to what boogeyman saidYeah thanks to that last crappy Halloween Resuurection movie,this movie series is already ****ed up.They ruined it by not ending it like they should have with Halloween H20.They should have just had that be Michael Myers and she realy did slash his head off and just end the whole damn thing there.But they had to go and make a crappy sequal to it with him Killing her-a huge cardinal sin and the last one already made it an unsatisfying ending with him opening up his eyes in the hospital showing us he is still alive. 😠 at least continue it from there to let us know what happened after that. 😠

if anyone can sort out the f**k up that is the halloween seris then its rob zombie, for anyone who has read some of his interviews he lives and breaths horror.

i suppose pumas. Anyways yeah man-spider i totalyy agree with everything you said. Although I'm sort of happy they didnt end it with h20 but ressurection should have connected 1 to 2 to 4 to 5 to 6 to 7, instead of how it is now with h20 being made like 4 5 and 6 never even happened, if we watch h20 they act like jamie doesn't even exist and that totally pisses me off , because when me and "the guys" watch the whole series on halloween it doesnt even make any sense. Anyways thats what 8 should have been, a conncection of the whole series and maybe even end it there, instead they confuse everyone even more by having him open his eyes, and now hall9ween isn't even gunna pick up from there?!?! wtf!?

That is incorrect. Anyone who supports remakes does not live and breathe horror. They sh*t on it.

totally agree

It'll happen. Hide and watch. Halloween will eventually be remade by some a$$hole, it'll be just as terrible as it is unnecessary, and I'll die a little more inside.

That is the most imbecilic thing I have ever heard.

hey death by corn, children of the corn rocks bro but remakes do suck

i love the Halloween movies as you can tell by my name. Rob Zombie to direct? I didn't like 1000 corpses but it was well made, I'll give it a slight chance.

It appears that Rob Zombie wants to make the 9th movie at prequel/remake, though he doesn't want to use the word "remake".

I would have liked another sequel better but I'll wait and see how this turns out.

Ok so about this whole Halloween remake.....for one if your a real Halloween fan then you should have read that this isnt going to be a remake but a reimaging a diffrent look at an already great movie. You would also read that not only is Rob Zombie directing it John Carpenter plans on helping the directing and writing of the movie. Remakes are not a bad thing sumtimes there one of the greatest movies. Look at John Carpenters The Thing its a F***ing remake and its great. So for all you people who just spit out there opinions! you need to do your homework on movies before you make your self look stupid.

I don't care. I have full confidence in Rob Zombie.

99% of remakes are shit. Okay, you named The Thing. Prime example of a good remake. Name another.

the hills have eyes, texas chainsaw massacre, the fly

Being a huge Halloween and Michael Myers fan myself, there is a lot of bad feelings that I have when I look back and see how this series has gone.

Halloween and Halloween II were absolutely perfect, for they created terror and suspence. John Carpenter was a God and knew how to scare the living daylights out of us.
Then came Halloween III - Season of the Witch. Where in the heck did this come from. At no time did this even come close to a sequel to the Michael Myers storyline, and it is just a sore spot for any fan.

Then you have the junk sequels from there.

Halloween IV - The Return of Michael Myers
Halloween V - The Revenge of Michael Myers
Halloween VI - The curse of Michael Myers

They brought in a new mask, made Michael seem not that scary anymore, and added his neice to the mix??? Oh yeah, let us not forget that they actually put him behind bars, though he was broken out by the man in black. Not to mention bringing back Tommy Doyle( OMG, where they grabbing for straws??? )

Halloween H20 would have been the appropriate place to end this story, as Laurie finally gets her revenge and kills the Brother that has been trying to kill her for the past 20 years, though as with any slasher series, we all knew deep down it was not going to be the last we heard of Michael. The only thing wrong with this film, was that it was taken from Haddonfield IL, to California????

Halloween Resurrection - Certainly not the answer we fans were hoping for. Although they returned us to Haddonfield, the blantent misuse of information that was tried to pass to us from H20 to this movie was absolutely absurd. We all saw Michael die and now we are lead to beleive that he avoided the entire incident? And not only that, but his house has become host to a web show???

So now that leads us to Halloween 9. Rob Zombie, saying that he will have a fresh viewpoint in making this film, plans on keeping that which John Carpenter worked so hard in achieving. I for one, as a fan, will give this movie a chance. I hated seeing Michael die, no matter how silly the movies had become. He states that this will not be a remake, but taken us further into Michael's world.

Give it a chance and let us hope for the best. At least that way we can put behind us all the crap that we have had to deal with!

It's not a remake per se but it is called just Halloween.

With RZ doing the work...it will be good. He has an eye for what works and what doesnt...plus he loves the devil....hmmm...dont kill me for saying this but it might even be better!!! Let the stone throwing commence.
