    The name of this thread implies we are talking about Halloween 2.

    You are talking about some...other movie...a travesty of a movie.

    I liked the Rob Zombie version.. of course I wouldnt put it in the same category as the originals but they both have their own merit.

    The original has the creepiness and sort of awe with Michael, the RZ version has boobs and blood. All of them wonderful things.

    It looks to be decent. I liked Rob Zombie's take on the whole thing. A more "realistic" Michael Meyers for an age of realism in horror films. But one must remember these are in an entirely different continuity from the original ones, and one should approach them accordingly.

    The thing that made the originals great is not just the chilling suspense, it's also that it gave NO explanation at all for Michael's antics or why he can't die. He's just an unstoppable force of pure evil, and it gives it an air of mystery and awe. That is, until the balls-awful Halloween 6, which explained too much for that continuity's mythology.

    However, in the remakes, there's no mythology or mysticism about it. It's a realistic Michael Meyers, who is just a strong, powerful, maniacally psychotic guy. It's not like they dicked up the story by explaining everything in a cheap mystical cop-out five films later; the remakes tell you right off the bat that this Michael is human, insane, and murderous, and that he's a straight-out mentally insane killer. And the film work very well with that take, and I liked the remake.
