Halloween 2 Review

Against my better judgement I went out to see the new “Halloween 2”. Granted, I didn’t think the first one was any good, and no I haven’t enjoyed any film by Rob Zombie at this point (even though my iPod is filled with his music)… but I thought “just maybe”. Perhaps it wouldn’t be as bad as I feared it would be. After all… G.I. Joe didn’t end up being half as bad as I thought it would be… maybe there would be something redeemable about Halloween 2. It’s possible right?

Let me make this perfectly clear and put it in the most direct way I can. To call “Halloween 2” I giant shitfest would be far too kind. I’ve never seen a “horror” movie so bland, so predictable, so boring and so ridiculous in my life. This is the worst film I’ve seen since “Catwoman” and now ranks as the 4th worst film I’ve ever had to sit through in my life (Just behind Battlefield Earth, Catwoman and The Highlander II).

THE GENERAL IDEA

It sucks so bad I don’t want to bother.

THE GOOD

You’re kidding right? Good?!?! There was absolutely nothing redeemable about this nuclear cluster fuck of a movie.

THE BAD

I honestly don’t know where to start. The fact of the matter is everything about this movie sucks on an epic scale and to point out any individual “bad” aspects seems redundant. I’m not a film critic, so I’m not sure I’m obligated to be forced to think about this movie any more than I already have.

I love Weird Al passionately… but dude… when his 2 minute cameo is the best thing about you’re movie, you’re in trouble.

Worst…. acting… ever.

I’m sorry… was I, at any point, supposed to be scared?

Did they write this movie on a napkin the morning production started?

I mean… if Zombie was going for: “Let’s make a movie that is totally predictable… lacks any scares or suspense… sacrifices all thoughts of common sense… have the lead girl squeal and scream all her dialog and put in the most ass raping nonsensical ending”… then yeah, mission accomplished.

I don’t want to talk about this movie anymore. I don’t want to think about this movie any more. I will never mention this movie again. I could have spent my Saturday afternoon napping… it would have been far more productive. I don’t know you Rob Zombie. We’ve only met briefly and you seem like nice enough of a guy and you make some kick ass music… but right now I hate you a little bit.

OVERALL

As far as a “score” goes… well… I’ve never done this before, but it must be done. Overall I give “Halloween 2” a -2 out of 10. Yes… a -2. Damn I’m SOOO mad right now that my Saturday afternoon was so utterly wasted. Fuck this movie.

You know what i think they should create a new academy award for ‘Worst Director of the year’
and give it to this zombie guy. With a cheque collected by movie fans pleading never to make any movies again.

  They call it “The Razzies” and the Acedemy Awards recognizes excellence. Failing at something is not excellence.
  
  And they offered Uwe Boll money to never direct again too, and that didn’t pan out either.
  
  You are over reacting.

i hated this film it was the worst horror film ever. thye reasion why the old halloween films were so good is because the audience never saw the killers face. this makes the killer a lot more scery as the audience can not see who it is and therefore they subconsciously think it could be someone who they know. this film as distroyed this level of fear. all rob zombie is, is a splater film director not a horror director. as a fan of the films i fell very let down by this film and will not see it again!

Rob Zombie should be sued into kingdom come for 7 figures for infringement for ruining Halloween. It is more like a Gacy film that a serial killer watching will enjoy.

This film is so bad. It is so insulting to see such a disgusting piece of work. If someone would do a film like this. It should have been like Argento.

Halloween, Friday The 13th and other works should be protected works not to be able to be re-made without the prior legal consent of the rightful owners.

This is getting out of hand as they said Zob Zombie wants to remake 86 movies coming.

I was insulted that this was made by the Saw crowd and actors. If I was John Carpenter I would take Zob Zombie into the courtroom to take all his assets to donate to Fangoria or Haiti ;)

Let’s make a sequel in the likes of Halloween on a new level done like the original like a girl getting fired on halloween who is DX’d with bi-polar opens up her doorway of hauntings from the previous murdered in the Halloween films including Michael to possess her to control her only when she is in her bi-polar state done elegantly without the major gore would be incredible.

Halloween is open to any possibility as trick or treat along with the myths that are there. Why remake when an original work could be done.

Booo is all I can say for Halloween (Zob Zombie movies) he should be banned for any further remakes.

Let’s have a Basket Case sequel. That would be awesome.

Thank you.

At first I was flat-out pissed off by this film. I’ve never been pissed off by a film. Disappointed, sure, but never angry. Then I realized something. Rob Zombie doesn’t give a f… about how he has aborted a legendary horror franchise. He cares about only two things: further projecting his ugly, misogynistic view of the world onscreen and making as much money as possible doing it. He has no imagination nor even the slightest sense of originality. The characters in his films are all the same. Men are white trash and women are white trash sluts. He even whores out his own wife. So the thing is, we shouldn’t be pissed at Zombie. He has established what we can always expect from him… shit. Nope, we should be pissed at Dimension Films for what they allowed him to do to the Halloween name, but even more, we should be pissed at the folks out there who actually enjoyed this film and lapped it up at the trough.

I downloaed this for free, it came as two parts and I did not even get through the first. WTH?? Rob Zombie and his nasty wife are the poster children of white trash. This movie is the worst ever. I would rather watch Highlander 2 for a week straight then 10 min of this crap. Rob stick to music, you suck at movies.
