I love your videos they are funny an awesome but honestly the first I couldn't watch fully cause how much I dislike rob zombies movies

[@randomkillerx2157]

I feel sorry for you that this was your first Halloween movie watching. I didn’t hate this, but watching the original first was a special experience. I haven’t really liked any Halloween movie again since H20. I do however enjoyed the 2018 version I guess the most out of Resurrection, and Zombie’s double Halloween movies. I consider this the trailer trash Myers era, too violent, too vulgar, but I’m one of the few who liked Zombie’s Halloween 2 compared to the first one. Maybe because it seemed like a newer idea, and I really hated that young Myers kid from the first one.

[@ALECtheRUSH]

Imagine if the Halloween franchise never existed and this movie came out as a stand alone. I think it would be very highly regarded. The movie is plagued by expectations

That unnecessary rape scene and those hillbilly characters would still be rivered, I guarantee it. It’s the reason why most of his other films aren’t loved by the masses but more just fans of his style.

MM killing Ismael really hurt my heart as well, and him being like “I was good to you, Mikey!” as he is drowned in a toilet… with the water turning red with blood… and then MM finishing him off with the TV to the head.

[@dduval59]

Finally rewatched the theatrical cut for the first time in 14 years and I remembered why I liked the movie on initial watch. I think it's a pretty good introduction to a humanized version of Myers and I actually felt bad for him. I liked the explanation of the obsession with masks too. And there was a good variety of kills too. Annie's assault is pretty gut wrenching because she ends up covered in blood but you have no idea what Michael did to her, only that it paralyzed her where she couldn't even talk. And I love endings where Michael is definitively killed, and I marked out when Laurie pulled the trigger and the blood splattered on her face and she was screaming. I also liked that maybe Michael was helping Laure aim the gun too, because he was probably just too tired and knew he had no reason to live.

[@alessiobracco4357]

Rob zombie has his own unique tone and it worked perfectly for the Halloween films. This movie especially is great. Scariest Micheal Myers to this day

Even though I really dislike the 2009 sequel I think it has one of the most brutal Michael killings when he's repeatedly stabbing the nurse and you can hear him grunting. Totally agree Michael is very menacing in the Zombie films.

[@NikkieTwix]

Rob also always picks great makeup and special effect artists because the kills in his movies always look so real and brutal and gritty. I freaking love it 😂

[@Benjamin-lk9xd]

i also remember seeing this at a young age. the whole family dynamic and the verbal abuse and hints at the physical abuse saddened me a lot when i watched this film, but it adds to the credibility of (like chris said) what real serial killers home lives were prior to them becoming one.

[@ajzombie10]

The best thing about Zombie’s take on Myers is that it’s HIS take so HIS take on the character is not WRONG 🙂

[@Legit527]

I respect what Zombie did with his interpretation of Halloween, but I love the concept of Michael Myers being a form of evil with no explanation, like the Joker in The Dark Knight, he’s a man who just wants to watch the world burn, he’s given no backstory, only up to the viewer’s opinion, Michael Myers was created as an incarnation of evil, that’s it, nothing else, which I personally find more frightening. He’s evil because he’s evil, not because of a rough upbringing.

[@3CFilms]

And I do prefer that as well , I just also find appreciation on this version too.

[@callumbutler9902]

Yeah i see that. :3

[@callumbutler9902]

I feel the same. :3

[@tharealest8190]

No backstory or explanation is the biggest smoke and mirrors CON ever . It doesn’t make it scarier at all it’s just a CHEAP way to avoid critique and deconstruction. If it’s your movie then tell YOUR story and YOUR vision , it shouldn’t be left for everyone to have their own take on what it is

[@HolsovanUltimate]

@@tharealest8190 Are you daft? In a horror movie setting, we as humans are afraid of the unknown, that in which we cant explain. The fact that Michael has no reason for what he does is what makes him so damn frightning. You cant reason with him, he only kills. Thats the point.

[@tylerpinkston47]

This film is my favorite of all. It recreates the most iconic kills and introduced new actors as main characters instead of being afraid to go outside fan favorites. The actor for Myers portrays the unstoppable evil shape perfectly. Anybody in his way will not only die but perhaps suffer something so foul before reaching a horrific death. If you're lucky you die quickly but if not he defiles you.

[@JaredThompson90]

He cut off pieces of the dog's meat 🥓🥓🥓 😂😂😂😂 and ate it

[@jewelz6028]

You nailed right on the head. When Debra Dies, Michael Myers Died and The Shape/The Boogeyman is born. When i saw this movie i was 23 and already have been invested in the series for 16 years at that point. That was one of the 1st things i thought of, cause i was extremely close to my Mom and their relationship just resonated with me. Also the "Ugliness" Michael says of Himself, is that evil growing inside of him, cause whenever he kills, he is wearing the mask and he feels like he can maybe hide it from the world. The rage that Loomis would talk about, was physically worn on Michael's face, especially after Mikey kills the Nurse and His Mom lifts the mask off his face and he is clearly in a Raging Demonic Episode. This was a great representation of him turning into the Evil he is described as being.

[@CABS16CS]

This is my favourite Halloween film aswell as Halloween 4 I loved how brutal and horrid it got. It’s a more detailed look into Michaels life

Also, Loomis spent 15 years working with Michael and decided to write a book. Why in any case is that terrible?

Something that's interesting is that I knew someone that spent time in 80-100, which is code for the institution for suicidal kids.

I still think Kills looks great, though.

[@JaredThompson90]

Yes. Straight killer. I love it. He was savage.

[@MaloryMurphy]

I like Rob Zombie’s take on it. It was one of the first times we got to see Michael Myers be brutal (unlike the other previous films, they didn’t show him being brutal with his kills, just sort implying it). We got a backstory on why Michael is the way he is. He came from a “bad home” where violence was common in his home. It took a child who seemed to be good kid but his environment broke him and he found an outlet of his own, more violence. More graphic than what he was experiencing. He wanted to hurt those that hurt him and then losing his mom (who he loved so much) was his breaking point. Once she died, he lost what little joy he had in life left. He became a shell of man with nothing to live for except his baby sister Boo. He had a bond with her and that what was left of the what made him happy as a kid. Once she rejected him (not knowing that was her actual brother) and after knowing he attacked her friends, he was the caused of her being traumatized, just like their mother was by his actions.

If you've seen the different versions.. you know what scenes I'm talking about.

[@METATRONbookofRevelation]

Rob Zombie's version was the absolute worse. He reduced Michael's motivation to being from a dysfunctional family. He moved about like Leather-Face, as oppose to the ghostly sleepwalking type boogieman. I guess we could appreciate the visuals, like the mask and the poster. It had good parts, but on a whole it was crappy. It felt like it was geared specifically for a Rob Zombie audience. Rob Zombie's other movies were classics, but HALLOWEEN was Zombie out of his lane. He's trying to turn a mystery into a demystified common serial killer. HALLOWEEN was a project for someone who understands how to create an unseen, stalking mysterious dreadnought that moved in and out of the shadows. Zombie's films had killers who were real humans, but very, very twisted. Thats what Zombie's Michael seemed like, versus being a supernatural force of nature. In fact, "House of 1000 corpses" would have worked as the soundtrack for Zombie's M.MYERS. And an element that was ignored in most of the sequels was Michael's eyes. Not seeing his eyes, but just darkness, added to his mystery. I'm sure RZ had fun making this movie. When regular hardcore HALLOWEEN fans understand who RZ is, then it kind of becomes predictable and just another dark-side of humanity ride. Then its appreciated for just what it is without comparing it to the original. I guess next, they'll let ICE-CUBE make a remake, or better yet JORDAN PEELE.

The brutality in his kills though in the remakes are remarkable.

I love your George Lopez and Spongebob references 😭 I can tell you’re a cultured Nickelodeon kid! Now I love you even more

[@Zephsims]

This is one of my favorite Halloween movies and it’s truly underrated

[@3CFilms]

Glad you agree!!

[@MyNerfArsenal]

Halloween Kills was the first slasher flick I ever watched, it made Halloween my favorite slasher, and got me hooked to the subgenre. Halloween Kills is also by far my favorite

[@arthurc5284]

This movie has two versions, the Theatrical and Directors cut, one difference is Dr. Loomis in the Directors cut is a lot more sympathetic and seems upset that he wasn’t able to help Michael

[@SuperColonel91]

Should have been in both versions.

[@emmab8056]

Also the hideous sexual assault scene that caused the escape as opposed to him attacking the police, which was a much stronger scene and really showcased Michaels strength and brutality early on. Michael ripping out the officers throat with his bare hands was a great visual effect. I love Rob Zombie but the sexual assault scene was just unnecessary, all in the name of shock value I think. I definitely preferred the more sympathetic Loomis too!

Rob Zombie is far more intellectual than the average Gore Purveyor he was catering to when he was handed the Michael Myers Story to work on. By far the Best Slasher Film I have ever watched.

First time I watched Halloween was in early 80’s. Scared the ever livin $h1t out of me as a kid. I couldn’t go outside my house alone at night for quite a while. That said, Zombies version is the absolute best for me. The movie is so raw & I like that Michael was so effin physically huge in this, just adds to it. I watched Halloween Kills last night & it was good, like you said not the worst one. It was funny hearing the audience cheering at each kill & some of the sounds the girls would make on some of the gory scenes. 🎃🤡

[@andrewmcclean873]

Definitely earned a subscription from me today man! Fantastic review and honestly I love that this version of Michael/Halloween is getting the praise it's due! I loved the originals, but everything you've said in this review is exactly what I believe and I wish Rob got more opportunity to expand, great video!

[@nickdorenkamp959]

To be honest Rob Zombies halloween movies are a guilty pleasure. Infact one thing the movies did right was how to bring the character into the modern day right. That is get rid of what's trending and go down to bare knuckle bones.

i’m 22 so this was also my “first” Halloween but i’m the odd kid who likes part 2 of the rob zombie flicks more😭😭 i just didn’t dig kid Myers… i did dig like the ending/climax though & myers in his final form.

[@kristaVegas]

I feel so sorry for you :( Either you have zero cinematic standards or it was the first one you saw and had no frame of reference whatsoever. Sorry Franco, Im truly not saying this to be mean, youre entitled to your opinion! But wowwwww, is part 2 a bad movie lol

[@edwardwalden05]

@@kristaVegas that’s what makes opinions like buttholes. We all have one, and it stinks. I loved part 2 as well. I’m one of the small minority who doesn’t like the original, because if it’s slow pace, and not too many kills. Forgive us for not being Stans, but i loved that terrible Halloween 2 by rob zombie lol

[@paulfrick169]

The mistake this movie made was adding a motive and humanity to Michael. The lack of motive, emotion and humanity made the 78 Michael so scary, unique and mysterious. You barely saw what he looked like underneath his mask, his eye-holes black due to the lighting. In the Rob Zombie movies, you know from the beginning that he has reasons to kill, which in this case are a troubled family and bullying. The problem is that this doesn't make him stand out. A human motive is what drives most murderers and actual serial killers of the real world. A killer that doesn't have a motive like that, and kills for seemingly no reason at all is just way more effective.

I love Rob Zombie’s “Halloween”. I like that he explored his childhood. I like how brutal Michael is in this one and “Halloween II”. Malcolm McDowell, Danielle Harris, and Brad Dourif! “Halloween II” wasn’t as good but... 🤷🏻, lol.

Chris I think your should do more reviews like this but keep doing the movie news too. Your my favorite movie channel and glad a found this channel about a year ago. Keep up the good work man. Oh and the original Halloween is my favorite movie of all time but rob zombies version is good and like it alot but his sequel is one that I feel was definitely a waste and was an obvious cash grab since the first did so well.
