My Halloween Movies Ranking (12 movies items)

"Just a terrible iteration giving us unwanted answers to a version of Michael Myers that's extremely different from the one we knew and thousandfold worse. It's a boring, overly dramatic movie."

Pointless remake

“I have nothing against remakes in general, some are great, some are good, some are quite, some are both awful and pointless. The remake to the classic Halloween(1978) isn't only awful, as a remake and on its own merits, but like the Psycho, Nightmare on Elm Street, Wicker Man and Stepford Wives remakes it is also pointless.

Not only is it awful, pointless and not scary at all, but it is the complete opposite of the original in every way. Sorry about the comparing, but in this case it is inevitable.

The film is not cheap as such, but just not atmospheric. The camera angles do get obvious after a while and the editing gets a little frenzied. Some of the music was nice, but the cues like the camera angles seemed obvious in how they were placed and it isn't successful at en” read more

An average movie

“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Not to be confused with the classic directed by John Carpenter or the other recent remake by David Gordon Green, this is another version directed by Rob Zombie and it seems to be rather forgotten nowadays, even if it was actually fairly successful at the box-office when it was released. Well, I thought it was not bad at all. Indeed, what I really liked was the fact that Zombie took a really different approach, at least, during the first half. Indeed, for once, they focused on Michael Myers’s childhood which was a nice idea. However, it turned out to be only a very long introduction and the rest of the movie was basically a rather faithful rem” read more

“A modern and intelligent re-reading of Big John's masterpiece. Zombie avoids the trap of old school repetition. Impactful!” read more

"29.8. Netflix Uusintakatselu. Rob Zombien Halloweenissa on vieläkin yllättävän paljon hyvää. Siinä on varsin nokkelia havaintoja ympäristöstäänkin kärsivästä erityislapsesta, jotka valitettavasti voi helpostikin lopulta elokuvan valossa tulkita psykopatian oireiksi. En järin usko erityislapsikulman tarkoituksellisuuteen, mutta tarjoaa ihmeen mielenkiintoista pohdittavaa. Halloween-kontekstissa Michael Myersin lapsuuteen paneutuminen ei oikein toimi, koska vie selittämättömäl"
