1 Thing movie makers have to know before they do remakes: Don't Mess With The Original!

I'm a huge fan of John Carpenter's Halloween, but I love the whole franchise from Halloween (1978) to Halloween: 20 Year's Later. At least this one is way more better than Halloween: Resurrection, which I consider it as a spin-off.

After Christopher Nolan chose to reboot the Batman films, it has been a trend to do remakes of the classics, but Nolan hasn't failed at all to reboot a franchise. However people like Michael Bay (A Nightmare on Elm Street & Friday the 13th) and Zac Snyder (Man of Steel) are one of those many names who actually just destroyed the pride of the classics. But does Rob Zombie hit this list or not, is what I'm going to talk about.

Rob Zombie has failed to improve the scare from the classic. Instead he has focused more on the back story of the young Michael Myers, and that's a great thing. We all wondered what that actually happened on that Halloween night when the 6 year-old Michael killed his sister Judith. The first 55 minutes of the film was absolutely great, so we should give Rob Zombie an applause for that! However the second part when Michael returns to his hometown, Haddonfield, is when the movie starts to turn bad! There are so many mistakes and so many goofs compared to the original.

If you want to see a horror movie I prefer you to not see this one and WHATEVER YOU DO, don't even think about giving your time for the sequel. It's awful! AND YES, Rob Zombie has hit the bad-remake-movie-makers list HARD!!
