The horrifying return of Michael Myers through the eyes of
Rob Zombie! The movie will be released on August 31, 2007.
You might have seen the previews already and this remake looks even scarier than the original. Granted, the original movie is
a classic and was quite scary enough, especially since I was pretty young when I first saw it.
The voice over on the
Halloween trailer says, "This August, Rob Zombie unleashes an extreme vision of terror and reinvents a legend." Some
critics, although fans of
Rob Zombie, are asking why? Why remake a classic? I personally think the trailer is spooky as is and has intrigued me enough to want to see the movie. Although, I am a movie fan, contrary to what you might imagine, I am not a huge horror movie fan. I guess growing up in the Halloween business has somewhat desensitized me to some things, and at the same time, some recent movies are just too sick or gory for my taste. I guess I live in a world of costumes, makeup and horror, so I like something different in most of my movies. But I will go and see this new
Halloween movie, I'm kind of excited about it, actually.
The new
Halloween movie trailer, I feel, is actually too scary to post here on my blog, since I want to keep my blog PG and family oriented about things related to Halloween and Halloween costumes.
There is an interesting interview with Rob Zombie posted on
Final Girl's blog. I just linked to it, rather than post it here along with a warning that you might find a few bad words there - doesn't bother me, but just in case it might bother you. : )
