I love how in that opening scene the camera does a closeup of a horse's ass.
It's like they were saying "yeah, the rest of the movie is pretty much this."

Bravo Fyrmer that was amazeing I noticed it to but didn't make such a connection

12.02.2010 - 00:36 | Critic Fan JillYou know, I can kind of forgive the whole crazy ghost parts, but not what they did to Loomis.

Rob Zombie probably only added the psychological/magic ghosts to the film to give his awful actress of a wife some screen-time. It makes NO damn sense!!!
-
12.03.2010 - 14:02 | mrrubino
Luckily, Zombie has a problem with the whole "writing realistic human beings" thing.
I'm looking forward to his take on Halloween 3. That should be... interesting. (Is Dan O'Herlihy even still alive?)
Zombie will probably go the full 9 and say Samhain is the patron god of the Myers clan. Thus we tie it into continuity! Woo!

12.04.2010 - 05:12 | buzzUact
Sorry to disappoint you but Rob Zombie has categorically said that he'll never do another Halloween film.
This I can only think is a good thing because the second film wrapped everything up perfectly so it dosn't need anything else adding to it.

Once again, there are movies that should be left alone never to be remade unless remade by the right person, Halloween 2 completely butchered the great name of the Halloween horror movie series...it should of been left alone.

12.02.2010 - 01:04 | RadeltaFinally got around to watching this movie the other night. I was trying my best to be un biased about it despite how much I didnt like the first remake.
I sure tried to like it. I really dont get how rob zombie fucked it up so bad. Hes a really big horror movie buff. Dunno wtf he was thinking

This movie makes me sad. Very sad indeed. I don't think it could get much more removed from what the films were originally like.
Loomis is a jerk? Laurie's evil at the end? Random psychological villains? A dream that takes up the first 22 minutes of the movie? You just have to wonder what anyone involved with this was thinking, if they were doing such a thing to begin with.
Good review Mike. I loved seeing Welshy's opinions throughout and, as always, your commentary was entertaining and funny. Good job and I hope to everything holy that they do not make a 3rd.

I had that same Breyer Horse when I was a kid.

12.02.2010 - 01:48 | VoiceAgainstPropaganda
So would they do with a 3rd installment? Say the Halloween killer is a female now? Take away all of Micheal's powers and make the legacy that is "Halloween" mortal?
-
12.02.2010 - 01:49 | tai0purto
yay I was waiting for this review as well!
wow! I can't believe I was going to watch this movie!! =A=;;
awww I was wishing you mention about that the movie had two different endings! o ^ o
-
12.02.2010 - 02:11 | AlhazredThe only thing I could think about when I watched this movie was who on TGWTG was going to review it first. Great review, Mike and Welshy. A truly deserving review for a true piece of sh-t.
And I agree 100% with Loomis' complete change in character. I've heard Zombie explain that it was because of his book's popularity, but seriously...? This guy was willing to risk his life to save Laurie in the first one and didn't seem to have any negative character traits, either. Now he's a complete douchbag because he had a moderately successful book?! WTF, Rob....

12.02.2010 - 02:42 | CrazySwede
You should have made a joke about the rapist from Pulp Fiction. He was one of the guys on the cornfield.
-
12.02.2010 - 02:49 | Darks63
I wonder if Zombie is gonna try to tie in the original halloween 3 and his new series of films for the next halloween.
Oh and the whole infected by Micheals evil thing was done already in halloween 5.
-
12.02.2010 - 02:56 | EvilAshTwinIll admit that I liked the first one. However, I hated this one. Thats it, the whole movie was awful and it would take too much time to explain why. Everything about this movie was, as Mike put it "shite".
-
12.02.2010 - 03:30 | Dr Forrester
Zombie must have been high when he penned this one. How else can he explain this total bastardization of the series that's already been beaten to a pulp. Good show MikeJ
-
12.02.2010 - 03:58 | buzzUactI've posted this on Spoony's website and on Anythinghorror.com. There are some quite good points in relation to Zombie's Halloween 2 on Anythinghorror.com I thought. I'm going to post this again here because I feel very strongly about this film and whilst I'm very clearly in a minority, it's a minority that's happily quite a bit bigger than I thought it was and it one that's fortunately getting bigger too. I know of at least one person that has given Zombie's Halloween films the chance it deserves due in part to these posts which means despite all the thumbs down I know this'll get; posting it can only be a good thing.
Just for the record I want to say once again how much I love your work Mike J, I really do think your freakin awesome!
Halloween 2 is awesome. It's the after horror movie, movie. I don't know about anyone else but I've always kinda wondered what happened the victims of a horror movie after the movie had actually finish. I know Sally from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is meant to go into a mental hospital but you never get to actually see it. Halloween 2 shifts from focusing on Myers (who is the protagonist of the first) to Laurie (the victim from the first), which works really well for it. In this movie you get to see just how fuck up an experience of surviving a mass murdering rampage makes you. Scout Taylor-Compton does a great job of this think. Normally I hate a load emo shit but this is not what's going on in the movie. Laurie does a lot of whinnying and of lot of angry lashing out at poeple she cares deeply for but she is genuinely trying to stop this behaviour, it's just that everything that she's been through keeps replaying in her head, everything is a constant reminder and she can't cope with it.
The stuff with Michael Myers and his mum is showing that there is actually something supernatural or paranormal going on. This is supported with Laurie who knows something is wrong throughout the whole movie and can't feel it growing but can't quite place it. In the end the end she sees her mum as well. The paranormal stuff however is really downplayed and subtle which makes it far more creepy and effective.
-
12.02.2010 - 03:56 | buzzUactOk the majority of the deaths are the fairly standard slasher deaths and pretty much what you'd expect. This is actually what I didn't like about the second half of the first movie but I think they fit in much better here. It also has in it one of the creepiest deaths scenes that I have ever seen and that's the one of Annie. Annie is a instantly likable character. She is a survivor too but has got her shit together far more than Laurie but there is still something there that suggests that she might crack at any moment, kudos to Danielle Harris for that great acting. Annie try's to support Laurie as best she can and takes far more crap from her than she really has to or deserves and whilst she does lose it a couple of times she always push quickly back giving us an intensely human support character that is a great mirror for Laurie our protagonist. These traits endeared her to me as the audience a great deal. When Michael Myers comes to the house I was rooting for her to get away but knowing that she wouldn't. This truly had me on the edge of my seat and having her killed off screen to let my imagination do the work, with the fast whispered "help, help, help," and the sounds of struggle made the whole thing truly horrific. Laurie's reaction is great. Such pain in her voice as she apologies for being such a bitch and admits that she needs Annie to cope with everything that's happened. Then her father the Sheriff (Brad Dourif) find her and the pain in his voice as he hold her is almost unbearable. Never in a slashed movie have I cared so much for a character who's been killed or the pain inflicted on those who loved them, as I have in the case of Annie. It's without a doubt the best death scene in a slasher movie that I've ever seen and I think one of the best death scenes ever.
I suppose one of the reason why I might have liked this movie more than other people is because I haven't seen many of the other Halloween films and the ones I have seen I watched in no particular order. I never really liked Michael Myers or Jason for that matter. I preferred Freddy and Chucky and Pinhead for the reason that they had loads of personality and that all of that personality was driven on killing you. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I came into these remakes with no preconceptions of what I thought Michael Myers should be but with an idea of what I thought a good horror/slasher movie should be. Halloween 2 surpassed my expectations and then some. It had some good death scenes where I was glad to see the victim get taken a part, it had some death scenes where I was rooting for the victim and it had one horrific death scene which will forever stick in my mind, probably because it was mostly my mind doing the work. It had fantastic character development with believable and emotional humanising of these characters, which made me root for them even more and did what a good horror movie is supposed to do, scare me.
-
12.02.2010 - 03:56 | buzzUactI think the problem with this movie, which is one that I think faces a lot of remakes; is that people have a certain ideas about the way certain characters should act or behave and are upset when they don't. If you're going to watch a remake you have let go of your preconceptions and be prepared to embrace someone else's new ideas and imaginings. This is exactly what Rob Zombie's Halloween films are; a reimagining. It's not meant to be like the originals, the characters in them are not the same characters in this. I think this film would have been received much better if the title of the film was something different and the characters names where all changed but the plot and the cast remained the same. This is probably why remakes in general are a bad idea and film makers should start making new things whilst only taking inspiration from old movies rather than entire plot premises. For now though I'll just say that Rob Zombies Halloween 2 is what it is, an underrated masterpiece of slasher horror.

Even if Zombie's Halloween films weren't called Halloween, they'd still be relatively mediocre movies with dull and uninspiring cliché running rampant throughout, unutterably awful characterization, terrible acting and laughable attempts at symbolism and depth.
99% of the characters in these films are awful, so where does the horror come from? You're supposed to be able to sympathise with these people and actually care when they die. Here they're all un-likeable annoyances, and that sets off a chain reaction of douche-baggery leading to the guys who are supposed to be assholes just becoming off-the-charts vile caricatures of people (eg necrophiliac ambulance driver and rapist loony-bin wardens from the first flick).
He can't even keep character consistency from film to film. Myers' mother killed herself in the first over what a monster her son had become, yet her ghostly vision in this film is telling him to kill. You could argue that it was Michael's perception of his mother, but that's blown out the water when she visits Laurie at the end, Laurie didn't know her so her perceptions couldn't have been shaped the way Michael's were.
These films are a shambles. Are they any worse than some of the later Halloween sequels? Yes they are, because they have a completely new set of problems thanks to the inept direction of Mr Zombie. He is a one trick pony who writes what he knows - rednecks. The white trash background of Myers in these remakes completely eliminates any of the fear factor surrounding the character, as well as any mystique or originality or depth the character had. From the personification of evil in the original to a seven foot redneck with Mummy issues and a stereotypical origin story of killing animals/bullying/abusive father blah, blah, bah seen it all before at least 100 times.
Underrated masterpiece? Couldn't be further from the mark.

12.02.2010 - 08:36 | buzzUactZombie's Halloween films are ultimately slasher movies and as slasher movies they are inevitably going have a few clichés in them. Trying to avoid them completely would be like trying to avoid a zombie (the dead flesh eating kind, not rock star movie making kind) not eating people in a zombie film. This being said I think the clichés are pretty much kept to a minimum and what we instead focus on is the psychological mindset of the characters after the events of the first movie. This movie is all about context and as such it's vitally important that the first movie is watched before seeing the second so as to understand exactly what’s going on. The thing that makes this movie so good (and it is) is that there such a lot going on in it both in the scenes and the dialogue and behind all of that, i.e. the psychology of the characters. It is in short a movie that you have to think through and whilst I do enjoy a good horror flick that I can just switch my brain off for an hour and a half it's also good to watch one switches it on and engages me. Zombies Halloween 2 is one of the best films for this.
I'll give you some examples of this. For example a lot of people say that they don't like the dream sequence at the beginning of the film because it is just a dream. I thought it was quite clever; it puts almost the entirety of the original Halloween 2 into that first twenty minutes giving credit to the originals in a beautifully mastered way. It's also implied later on that it's the same dream Laurie had when she was first in the hospital, which makes sense. This is great foreshadowing, her old nightmares which she would of inevitably of had when she was first taken to the hospital are coming back to haunt her just before The Nightmare that is Michael Myers comes back to haunt her.
Dr. Loomis in Rob Zombie's films is an almost tragic figure. He spends seventeen years genuinely trying to help Myers and Myers ends up as a much worse psychopath than when Loomis started. At the end of the first film not only does Myers breaks Laurie but he also breaks Loomis, stripping him of all his beliefs, all of his values about helping people until he just a corporate sell out who cares more about money then he does about people, even the people directly around him. That's part of the reason the ending to Halloween 2 is so good because in rushing in to save Laurie, Loomis is also saving himself.
These things show great characterization and great acting (I really do think Scout Taylor-Compton deserves an Oscar for how well she plays Laurie). I also think this shows fantastically how they develop as characters throughout the films. As for the symbolism and depth being laughable this just isn't true. I see new things and make new connections everything I watch it. For instance last time I watched it I thought that the crumbling shack at the end was a great metaphor for Laurie's crumbling sanity.
-
12.02.2010 - 08:38 | buzzUactMost of the characters in this are extremely sympathetic. I do hesitate to use the word likable because in the case of Laurie she isn't really but this is because she she's trying & failing to get her life back together. You have to remember that Laurie is still a teenager and is not mature enough yet to deal with things that most adults deal with on a day to day basis and she's being asked to deal with something that most adults wouldn't have a clue about how to begin handling. To be honest it's amazing that Lauriecan function at all in this movie with everything that she goes through. Rob Zombie gets her character spot on & Scout Taylor-Compton does a great job in her portrayal of her. As for sympathies towards her? Well she goes from being completely innocent to having her life torn apart, pretty much all her friends and family dying and being chased by a psychopath, to finding out she's related to the man that did it, to having the man that did it, do it again. I don’t think anyone deserves that much abuse & I rooted for her.
I've already talked about Annie above so I won't go into too much detail about her. She is a likeable character, a mirror for Laurie of someone who when through the same thing but survived and got their life back together. Her death scene was masterfully done and is one of horror's greatest. Mostly I think because it lets your mind do the work.
-
12.02.2010 - 08:37 | buzzUactIn terms of not keeping his characters straight and Laurie seeing Michael Mother at the end I'm going to get a little bit nerd here but I love this film so I don't care. I always thought that the ghost of Michael's and Laurie's mother was something real, as I said something supernatural going on but taking a subtle backdrop to the rest of movie. I never actually thought it was Deborah Myers through. In life Deborah was trying to do the best she could with what she had. She was devoted mother and was devastated by the loss of her daughter and tried to support her son after terrible events as best she could. When the pain of it got too much to bear she took her own life. She was in short a good person. The ghost of Deborah Myers is clearly malevolent from the outset and is driving Michael Myers for evil purposes. What it reminded me of was the demon from The Exorcist 3 (also the demon from the first one) and for all intents and purposes it could very well be the same demon. I won't call the demon Pazuzu because The Exorcist 2 is bat shit insane and I don't consider it to be cannon, even though I do know that the statue at the beginning of the first film is meant to be the Assyrian demon Pazuzu he's never actually referred to as such in the movie. The demon takes the soul of The Gemini Killer (played by Brad Dourif, coincidence?) and puts him in the body of Father Karras and repairs his body so he can continue killing. Similar story with Michael Myers. The demon who is taking on the visage of Myers’ mother repairs his body over the course of two years (I mean how else can you explain him surviving getting shot in the head?) and sends him off to start killing again. Furthermore it sends him after a girl who like Regan was completely innocent to tear that innocence away from her, and it succeeds. It strips her of the last shreds of sanity she has left and make her worship it "I love you mummy, I love you mummy." The very last shot is of Laurie with the exact same look on her face as young Michael from the first Halloween, indicating that her humanity has been taken from her as well. In fact if you put the pictures together it's scary how much she looks like him. Kudos again to Scout Taylor-Compton for her great acting. "I think the point is to make us despair" (Father Merrin from The Exorcist). "I could have saved that innocent girl." (Sheriff Lee Brackett from Halloween 2). That sounds like utter despair to me.
-
12.02.2010 - 08:37 | buzzUactI've never understood people's insistence of blaming Myers problems solely on his father or the bulling. Dr. Loomis says very clearly in the first film that Myers problems are the combination of internal and external forces and if you take the elements of the second film into account there are also supernatural forces too. His journey from a little boy to the personification of evil is unique, interesting, exciting and frightening. You say you can think of a 100 movies that have done the same thing as Zombie's Halloween, well I can't think of one and that is a really good thing.
Whilst I respect you as an individual and your right to express your opinion it is never the less an opinion I vehemently disagree with and as I've said I know that I am in a minority but fortunately it's a minority that’s growing.

12.03.2010 - 17:17 | Spaniel1
Totally agree. Just like the nightmare on elm street remake. Oh wait, that was shit. Just like this movie.
-
12.02.2010 - 09:04 | khadgar64Maybe the whole "mother vision not being like real mother" thing in the part where Laurie can see them is supposed to be something like Michael telling Laurie to pick up where he left off (seeing how he obviously isn't out to kill her) and she then "inherits" the hallucinations? Just shooting in the dark here.
Also, I totally loved the part where she woke up from the hospital dream. As a person who really dislikes the original H2, it feels almost like it's mocking the (far too long and far too dull) chase scene in the hospital.
Still, didn't really like the movie. Fun to hear how Mike and Spoony differ on opinions on dr. Loomis.
-
12.02.2010 - 10:02 | buzzUactI preferred the director's cut ending a lot more than the theatrical one. The image of Laurie standing over Dr. Loomis with the knife shows that she has lost all remaining shreds of sanity just as well if not better than her holding the mask. Then when she gets shot and Nan Vernon's cover of Love Hurts kick in making the imagery of this scene amazing powerful, the credits start up and my jaw was left hanging open. The theatrical ending makes it pretty clear that Laurie is in a mental hospital at the end. The director's cut is much more open ended than that though. It's a Reservoir Dog's style ending, did Larry shoot Freddy or did the police gun him down before he could? It's whatever you as an individual make of it. My personal take on it was that Laurie was killed and that the endlessly long corridor with Laurie at the end of it is an afterlife waiting room. It would be nice to think that the visage of her mother was the real one and had come to take her away from all the pain but I think it was the demon again come to either torment Laurie some more or repair her like she did Michael so she can go off and do more killing. Like I said it's whatever you make of it, which is one of the many, many reasons this movie is so damn good.

12.02.2010 - 06:48 | TrencherNo, just... No.. The rob zombie halloween movies are just emo "serial killers are cool" bullshit mixed in with a bunch of gorn. Nothing more. Since the "serial killers are cool" troupe appeals to all the everyday psychopaths out there this movie series have been a box office hit its not underrated at all. I know your probably just trolling but God allmighty... Are you sure you want to sink so low to say that you are a Halloween remake fan? Urgh...
-
12.02.2010 - 08:53 | buzzUactI really don't know how you can get emo killer from anything that Rob Zombie has done? I'm serious I really would like you explain this to me because I like to make a counter-statement but I don't understand what you mean.
There is a difference between challenging popular beliefs with critical thinking and trolling. Just because a view point that people hold is popular dosn't necessarily make it right. I do not agree with the popular opinion that's held of Halloween and the only way to change this opinion (and even if it is only in the mind of a single person then it's well worthwhile) is to challenge that opinion.
Yes I really am a huge fan of Zombie's Halloween and that's why I'll go to such lengths to defend it. I don't think that's me sinking low, that's me standing tall and proud next to one of the greatest and most underrated movies of the last 10 years.

I think so too. Not that thing about this movie being underrated (they haven't invented a rating low enough for this one and to adequately express my opinion of Zombie's movies I'd have to divide by zero) but I enjoyed reading your opinion. I can't disagree with you any more, but it's nice to read something in these comments other than "great vid, I totally agree".
-
12.04.2010 - 06:49 | buzzUactWell thanks for the positive feedback even if you don't agree with me. I wasn't expecting it and it kind of nice to hear.
I'm sure there are quite a few people out there that don't like this film for some legitimate reasons and that’s fine. We're all different and opinion is subjective after all.
I do have a big issue with people basing their entire opinion solely on the idea that it dosn't fit their preconceived idea of the original. Sure compassion is natural, inevitable and unavoidable and is a good way to begin forming an opinion but ultimately the film should be judge on its own merits, which I really don't think has been done here.
Hating something because it dosn't conform to preconceived notions is a very dangerous way of thinking. Subscribing to this hatred because it happens to be a popular belief is even more dangerous.
If Zombie's vision was meant to be taken as a sequel to the originals and was meant to be slotted into cannon, then I could understand people's outrage with him trying something new. The thing is that it's not a sequel to the originals and it's not meant to be slotted into cannon. And really if film makers are going to do a remake then I don't understand the point in making them exactly the same as the originals because they're adding absolutely nothing it. Zombie's films are unique and individual and as such should be judged accordingly because if you can persecute a film for being individual then it's only a few short steps to doing it to a person.
-
12.03.2010 - 17:14 | Spaniel1Please! This movie was like the nightmare on elm street remake. Not scary, unlikable characters, and just unnecessary.
-
12.04.2010 - 06:27 | buzzUactI like that way that you feel so strongly about the comparison between the Nightmare on Elm Street remake and the Halloween remakes that you felt the need to mention it twice. Once with sarcasm no less.
First off let me say that I do appreciate the Nightmare on Elm Street remake for not being just a scene for scene rehash of everything that we've already seen. I don't understand film remakes like Psycho or The Omen that just copy the original in its entirety. I would have thought the point of a remake would have been to retell a story with a fresh perspective and different point of view; a reimagined story.
I also agree 100% with Angry Joe about Jackie Earle Haley being awesome as Freddy because his portrayal of the character is really very, very good. Other than that though I do agree with you the film completely blows.
The characters are cardboard cut outs; the only thing that distinguishes them from one another is their clothes. I think the direct was going for stereotypes that everyone can identify with. So we've got the jock, the preppy girl, the punk/emo kid and the nerdy book worm. The problem with this is that it is only the clothes that define them. If you took one of these characters out of their clothes and put them into another characters clothes then you'd have the exact same character. Interchangeable characters do not make for good suspense.
This is simply not the case with the Halloween remakes. I've already gone into quite a lot of detail about the characterisation of the characters in the Halloween 2 so I'm not going do too much more of that. I will say that they are really not interchangeable and I'll give you a few examples. You can't change Laurie and Annie around because Annie has put her life together and Laurie hasn't. Annie is there as an example of something Laurie is trying wanting to do, is trying to do and is completely failing to do. This also does explain why Laurie is so unnecessarily nasty to Annie because not only is Annie a constant reminder of everything Laurie has lost but she's also an example of what she can't get back. What about Harley and Annie? Nope because Harley hasn't been though what Annie has been through and instead of reminding Laurie what she's been through she is instead is a source of escapism. How about we make it even more obscure and say what about Harley and Mya? Again the answer is no. Harley is the party girl, who dosn't know the limits and dosn't know when to stop. Mya in contrast is the level headed one, who'll have fun but knows when to stop and when to tell other people to stop. She is the one that supports Laurie when no one else can, not even her therapist.
-
12.04.2010 - 06:27 | buzzUactThe Nightmare on Elm Street remake and the Halloween remakes are completely different in almost every way. It's pretty clear to me that Samuel Bayer has no love for The Nightmare on Elm Street series and was just churning the movie out for a quick buck. It has loads of pointless scenes in it and jumps from one to another. In other words the film is driving the story.
In contrast Rob Zombie clearly does have a lot of love for the original Halloweens. You can see this in the small references that he makes all the time. The story here is driving the film, which is how it should be. Nothing in the film is pointless, everything has relevance (especially the white horse) and one scene flows very naturally into the next, making it a truly great and scary film to watch.

Love the way you handle guest appearances. Using them more as a joke, rather than just a second voice added.
best part of all is that the welshy bit could of become annoying or overused, but you pulled it off at all the right moments, enriching the already excellent video.
Without a doubt, the best movie reviewer on this site. I like how subtle you come off when delivering a line that may demonstrate your annoyance or frustration with the film. Yet you never yell or do an obvious "I am angry" face. You just roll your eyes, or stare blankly at the stupidity of the film, sipping coffee, or tea? or rum? whatevers in there.
bummer it is not, simply a superb video demonstrating your brilliance in every shot
