'H2', Rob Zombie's sequel to 'Halloween'

[Spider-ManHero12]

One of the many reasons why it's the best. It relies on suspense and terror, not blood and gore.

Agreed, It's my favorite horror film of all time.

 

[Nightmare]

Id agree. Id put it just above the original Texas Chainsaw and Nightmare on Elm Street movies.

 

[Red Mask]

Yes, but Mother was more a ghost then a human, so that a big difference.

I didn't say Annie had to be alive in H3D.

 

[Red Mask]

Not necessarily. Halloween (1978) was a slasher film, but it didn't have loads of blood, and it was still VERY scary.

I consider slasher films like Halloween to be graphic because they usually show us the bodies. But that doesn't necessarily make them the scariest films I've watched. I used to consider ghost and demon films to be scarier because of my Christian upbringing.

Now I'm more enthralled by the disturbing aspects of human nature, like the HBO movie "Conspiracy", which re-enacts how a bunch of Nazis secretly argued and rationalized what would lead to the Holocaust. (Conspiracy isn't a horror film.) Zombie's Halloween disturbs me because it plays with the roots of violent psychosis. Was Michael haunted by his mother, and then Laurie? Or is there possibly a genetic predisposition that hadn't been found in their behavior?

This is getting re released into theaters October 30th.

Here is the tv spot.

"Finally you can experience the movie on the weekend it was meant for!" exclaims this 15-second television spot for Rob Zombie's Halloween II. And you've got to wonder - why did they open the sequel on Halloween weekend in the first place?! Regardless, Dimension Films is giving Zombie's sequel a second life on the big screen on October 30 hoping to perhaps lure more movie-goers in with the holiday vibe. Will it work? The film has grossed an estimated $32 million domestically.

I think anyone who wanted to see it already has...

 

[Thundarr]

^True. I didn't even really want to see it and I went to see it anyway. Only reason I did see it is because I had enough points to see it for free (and I still wanted my money back, or at least my 1000 points). No way in hell I'm going to spend any money to watch that pile of crap again.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I'd go see it again if I got bored enough...and if it was a matinee

 

[Thundarr]

Agreed, It's my favorite horror film of all time.

I second that!

 

[Darkness Falls]

it still hasn't come out here

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'll go see it again this coming Friday.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

I'll go see it again this coming Friday.

If its playing near me, I'd see it again.


Now just give us some details on the dvd release now! Its been about 2 months since its release into theaters.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

We'll get it in December or January I'm sure.

 

[Red Mask]

This movie just came out here last week. So yeah, I watched it. And this week will be the even freakier "This Is It", and "Jennifer's Body".

 

[The Apatow Crew]

We'll get it in December or January I'm sure.

the 2007 came out the end of December.


And Rob said in a Interview expect a directors cut, with a different amount of footage taken out and put into the film.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

The director's cut of his remake's added in footage was stuff that should have stayed out. Like Loomis surviving and the rape scene.

[The Apatow Crew]

I agree the Rape scene should have been kept out and the original escaping scene was better.

 

[Nightmare]

I wouldnt go see it again for free.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I agree the Rape scene should have been kept out and the original escaping scene was better.

Yeah, the rape scene was, although more realistic, was a bit over the top.

 

[Red Mask]

Who was raped in the 1st film?

 

[Darkness Falls]

Who was raped in the 1st film?

the girl in the asylum

 

[Red Mask]

I didn't see that. But I don't think it's necessary for the film.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

The dvd comes out JANUARY 12th, 2010. According to amazon.

 

[SsM]

I think they should bury this and forget it ever existed. No dvd release...
