Halloween (Unrated Two-Disc Special Edition) Reviews

Awesome movie- I can see why some people enjoyed the original more, but re-makes are never truly re-makes, the new version always has it's flaws but also (hopefully) some aspects which make it more interesting than the original. I thought Daeg Faerch was awesome as little Michael Myers (though he did look older than 10!) and Malcolm McDowell was charismatic and exuded intelligence in the role of Loomis.

I liked that you got to follow more of the young Michael Myers in this remake, however, the rest of the movie, while filled with violence, sex, nudity, etc..., was nowhere near as good as the original. The actress playing Laurie was just horrible and I found her quite annoying. Most of the reason I even bothered with this film was because I loved that Malcolm McDowell, Udo Kier, Dee Wallace, and Brad Dourif were in it.
