Do you guys want to know the whole movie before it even come out? That is what it seems like, down to every detail.

Alright listen, I heard how the hospital sequences ended and I gotta say i'm really confused. So let me just try and put this in order and you tell me if i'm right. But I do have one question, does Laurie "think" Michael is dead before he shows up? Also, can you give a VIVID description of "how" Loomis dies, no one will give me a straight answer? Is it like the other "could" he come back agains or is he "really" dead?

Okay so the movie opens with Deborah visiting Young Michael in the instituion and she gives him a white horse toy (while we're asking questions, the "horse" that Laurie and Michael see in the movie, is it a "REAL" horse or is it the little figure).

Then we cut to Laurie walking down the street covered in blood saying "I killed him" and Sheriff Brackett finds her and takes her to the hospital? Then we see the crime scene and the attendants crashing and Michael escaping. Then we cut to the hospital with Laurie on the stretcher and all the graphic stuff of what's happening to her. Then she wakes up, finds the nurse bleeding and Michael alive, then runs around while he killes people. Then she escapes into the thunderstorm. Then..... the clip that's already been released? Is that right?

Thanks so much for answering all our questions, it's usually like pulling teeth to get people to spoil a movie for me.

Thanks again,
Les

P.S. Any chance you've seen The Collector? LOL

Hey where the hell did he go? What sort of "disturbing graphic images" are in the movie? The rating said something about that.

Thanks

It's a horror movie. "disturbing graphic images" are kind of expected.

Isn't it released today, anyway?

I just got back & I thought it was horrible.

SPOILERS

Is this Zombie's planned ending of his Halloween Reboot? Because killing Loomis & having Laurie go insane was stupid as hell.

"I just got back & I thought it was horrible."

Good thing I passed up the opportunity to see this tonight. I'll wait for the DVD if I want to see this. Movies are expensive nowadays.

Zombie shouldn't be allowed to make any other horror movie EVER.

I loved Zombie's first one. I hope this one's as good.

I actually liked this one, a lot more than Zombie's first swipe at the series. It's got some head-scratching moments but, overall, I thought it was pretty tense and the violence is effective without being gory. I still don't love the girl playing Laurie, nor do I love how Zombie handles her character (way too much screaming) but I really liked how he handled Danielle Harris as Annie and the Sheriff. Not perfect by any means but I enjoyed it overall.

I heard that the final cut still did not have the Halloween theme. Is this true?

[TheatreFan4]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 12:17am

It was played during the credits but that's it.

Michael's murders were BRUTAL.

SPOILERS


The nurse that is seen in the commercials was stabbed repeatedly fast, loud, & with lots of blood. He stomped one guy's face in and then hung him for all to see. Michael also grunts like a fat guy trying to get out of a recliner.

Okay that PISSES me off that they only use the music in the credits. I know it's Zombie's version of HALLOWEEN but he is using a well established title and, as such, needs to use the f'ing theme music.

[JohnPopa]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 1:11am

I thought Zombie's use of the original themes in the first movie kept killing the momentum of 'his' version. Any time he'd be chugging along in his own way and direction, he'd go back to Carpenter's themes and it would be a jarring reminder of Carpenter's movie. Really, I think the new movie benefits from not using the classic themes over and over.

This film was easily, the worst movie I've ever seen. And I've been going to the movies since the 1950s! Not an interesting shot, not an interesting character, not an interesting note of music (until the very end, when John Carpenter's music and theme are played). With the most obnoxious, ugly cast ever assembled, filmed with the cheapest film stock, available. Not one single scare, not one single moment that made you want to continue watching. The most boring film I've ever seen.

Were they smart to cut the scene with Michael eating the dog?

[JohnBoy2]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 6:57pm

What do you call "cut". We did see him eating the dog.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 7:05pm

REALLY?!?!

That pisses me off. I guess Zombie didn't give two sh*ts that the entire screening room thought that should be cut and served no purpose whatsoever.

[JohnBoy2]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 7:44pm

There is a scene where the unattractive Laurie and her unattractive friend, Annie, and Annie's unattractive father, are all sitting around a dirty table eating gross-looking pizza, while Michael feasts on the dog belonging to one of two fat, unattractive guys or a fat, unattractive girl.

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 8:00pm

You think Danielle Harris (Annie) is unattractive? I think she is beautiful

[JohnBoy2]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 8:18pm

She looks nothing like that in the film. She is ugly, as is everything in the film.

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 8:47pm

Ah. Well, all of Zombie's films makes the actors and actresses look practically dead.

[JohnBoy2]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 9:28pm

The ugly look of the film isn't what makes it so bad, it's how boring it is, that makes it unwatchable.

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 8/29/09 at 9:30pm

worst than the first one, huh? HATED the first one

[JohnBoy2]

Posted: 8/30/09 at 8:23am

I never saw the first one. I only saw this one, because I was coming out of The Final Destination 3D (enormous fun!), and noticed it was starting in 3 minutes, so I went in. I figured I didn't need to see the first one. There isn't any possible chance of my seeing it, or a part 3, now.
