Michael as a abused little boy with serious Mommy issues doesn't because we know to much about them.<br /><br />I don't want to know why he kills, I just want my monsters to be frightening. Is that so hard?Cheryl Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646087746888802149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611923762904126897.post-61077883737073864332010-08-30T22:56:00.659-04:002010-08-30T22:56:00.659-04:00Fun post.

But next time, select a film that's just bad and it may be easier on you, rather than subjecting yourself to perhaps the greatest travesty in the history of horror. <br /><br />RZ's Halloween remake just made me sad. In the original JC Halloween, Michael Meyers was just evil. No explanations, just a sick, methodical killing anomaly bred in middle class suburbia that scared the hell out of me. The fact he was an enigma made him scary. Rob Zombie turned him into a sad little victim of a trashy upbringing and coated his story with layers of senseless allegory in an effort to sate his desire to be creative and artistic (hence the young hip characters strangely sharing his retro taste in music and eccentric decorative and fashion sense).<br /><br />Halloween II took all those bad things and made them exponentially worse. His Halloween remake just made me sad. Like it apparently did for you, Halloween II just left me scratching my head and a little bit angry at his presumption to ruin a horror gem.<br /><br />And at least you had the good sense to not donate money to the effort. I wish I could say the same. <br /><br />WThe Political Palaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03802688894578033192noreply@blogger.com
