I watched Rob Zombie’s version of the classic horror movie, “Halloween.”
The movie started out in Michael Myers’ house.
His childhood had so much hate it was pretty disturbing.
The kid was constantly insulted and constantly screamed at in his house and in school.
It’s no wonder Myers began his killing spree.
For instance, a bully was making fun of his mother in a way that would make me kill him as well.
Myers followed the bully to the woods and brutally beat him to death with a stick.
The effects were awesome because the blood looked so realistic and the brutality looked really graphic.
Later on that day, Myers ended up killing his family, except for his infant sister and stripper mother.
I liked the story line at the beginning and the introduction of Myers’ mask.
It was interesting to see Myers grow up, to be a stone-cold killer.
For 17 years, Michael was locked up in a mental facility.
Myers was going to be transferred from the facility, but when they gave him a little freedom Myers slaughtered the security and escaped.
Basically after this event, the movie got really stupid.
Myers becomes a typical immortal killer stalking one person and whoever got in the way ended up dead.
Ironically, Myers escaped to find his grown up sister, Laurie, and killed off her friends.
Every couple that had an intimate scene was eventually killed off, which was kind of funny.
The annoying screaming of girls getting killed really ruined the movie.
If you go watch this movie, make sure there isn’t a group of immature kids in the audience.
Every boob that the movie showed, some juvenile-minded individual made a stupid remark.
Finally at the end, Laurie had a gun and Myers tackled her off a two-story house.
When Laurie awoke, Myers was lying under her.
She pointed the gun to his head and pulled the trigger, only to realize that there were no bullets left.
On the last fifth or sixth attempt, she blasted Myers’ head and the annoying screaming began again.
The ending was a real big disappointment. I give this “remake” a 6 out of 10 because of the annoying screaming and the lack of originality.
‘Halloween’: too many screaming girls
