Director : Rob Zombie
Running Time : 118 mins
Michael Myers (Mane) is still alive and trying to find his sister Laurie Stroude (Taylor-Compton), killing anyone who gets in his way. When Dr Sam Loomis (McDowell) releases a book on the life of Michael Myers, detailing the reasons behind his violent way, Michael realises where Laurie now lives and goes on yet another killing spree.
Even though this was better than the first remake, and in my opinion better than the originals which I was never overly fond of, there is still a little too much sympathy to be felt for the mindless killing machine known as Michael Myers. I did like that there were so many horror film actors in this, ranging from bigger names in horror like Brad “Chucky” Dourif and Danielle Harris, who appeared in a number of original Halloween movies as well as the sequels to Hatchet, to less remembered ones like Margot “Amityville” Kidder and Caroline “Texas Chainsaw & Leprechaun” Williams. Aside from these interesting homages, and a confusing double-bluff ending that actually worked quite well, this wasn’t that great, so only bother with this if you really love horror movies, or the films of Rob Zombie.
