ill give it to zombie, devils rejects was one of the best movies to happen to the horror genre in a long time (though house of 1000 sucked in my opinion). that movie was pure mid-70s-b-movie-exploitation awesome. halloween though wasnt too good. i always liked the mysterious aspect of michael myers, back when he was just "the shape". i only liked the original two halloween flicks, they can be watched back-to-back well. the third one obviously doesnt count as one at all though, and i would only watch any of the following ones (at least 4, 5, and 6) for loomis alone, what a badass that dude was, r.i.p donald pleasance. some characters can be cool without knowing much about them. ill probably see this one though. i would not like to see rob remake the blob though. the blob was already remade in the late 80s (And it was good), does it need a third version with unnecessarily-placed pentagrams and gritty satanic imagery in it? its a fucking blob.
somewhat of a rant, but i figured the remake trend would have died down by now. do we really need a straw dogs remake?
