He has a very brutal vision of filmmaking & it isn’t for everyone but I respect him for creating his own style

[@einsp227]

His "style" is putting his wife in every single movie and filling it with nothing but trailer trash stereotypical shit.

[@marciabeasley8506]

I agree! I really liked his Halloween.. the sequel was awful Imo but he might’ve been really done by then

[@WoahLookAtThatFreak]

It isn't that his vision is brutal as much as it is just poorly realized. All of his movies are poorly written, edited, acted and shot. One thing he does that I can't stand is the constant shaky cam close ups during his action setpieces that make everything hard to see what's happening.

[@TheSuperSaiyan4Gamer]

Saw this guy last year with Manson in concert and he was Awesome! Manson sucked, dude was on something or just didn’t care but Rob did everything he could to make the show work. Between songs he was out talking to the crowd, taking pics, signing autographs. Brought all his energy into every song and I’m glad I got to see him once in my life cause he really does have a passion for his work and it shows.

Manson can be hit or miss, I’ve seen him many times. If he is into it it’s a great show unfortunately sometimes it’s apparent that he doesn’t want to be there. I’ve also seen Zombie a bunch of times and every single show was fantastic. He always gives 100%.

Rob needs to learn breath control. It’s unacceptable to only sing every other word but he’s been doing it for decades.

[@DrWolfenstein313]

Well, Rob needs an editor and he REALLY needs a writer. He's a very stylish guy and a very good director, he just needs someone to lend him a hand with the stories.

[@craigsovilla6578]

​@FortuneFinders he writes dialog like he's writing a porno. He definitely could use a scriptwriter. You can be a director and still write concepts for your plot and have a scriptwriter write out your dialog, if he could just set that aside his movies would be by and large so much better.

[@cinemacola6398]

Writer most definitely. He should have story ideas to give a writer to better flesh it out. He is a competent director though.

[@troublemakerbros4267]

*Hold his hand with stories More like.

[@SeriousRodger]

This is completely accurate. He has no idea how to write, and for some reason feels that making every character use a disproportionate amount of profanity somehow GIVES them character. IT DOESN’T. It just sounds infantile and has no impact at all. Also, (like nobody knew this was coming) he needs to stop casting his untalented wife in everything he does. I don’t know whether she withholds oral gratification unless she’s cast, but either way she does not need to be ever seen on screen again in anything.

“You only have so much energy in your body and you waste most of it dealing with chaos and very little of it making a good movie.” This is a great descriptor of the obstacles you face trying to do the things you want to or love doing but need to reconcile if the effort you put in is worth it.

I always felt that Robs version of Micheal Myers was scarier than any other Halloween I’ve seen just brutal,Bloody, a straight savage

[@carloszestyboy2901]

Nah. What made MM scary was that he had a loving family and a normal life but still became completely evil, whereas most serial killers have extremely ducked up early lives. RZ just took the character, gave him a trailer trash hillbilly upbringing, and then made him into a generic, hulking killer.

​@@carloszestyboy2901 we got barely nothing on MM background in the original Halloween. He kills his sister and then is sent to an institution. We don't know by that movie that he had a loving family.

[@carloszestyboy2901]

@chrish5163 He sure af didn’t have the trailer trash, cousin Cletus upbringing that RZ’s did. The house in the OG was nice and large, kept up as was the neighborhood, and it can be inferred that the family wasn’t poor at least. Also yeah, that’s the point of why MM has been such a lasting icon. Good horror knows that less is more. Take Lovecraftian horror for example. The scariest part of a godlike being using people as pawns or food is that you don’t really know much about it. As soon as you show the villain, the fear of the unknown is gone.

Movie was horrible stop it

[@danielkeller1337]

I think his vision for the Halloween franchise was great. It was the beginning of the non supernatural Michael movies, but i love how he still used him brutally. Both his movies were great, but misunderstood to some or most i should say. I loved how they brought out his entire origins story then killing his family without remorse. It's like he just let's their victims drag out to die or brutally stabs them to death slaughtering them all. That's what i love about Rob Zombie's version. He shouldn't be upset at all about making them. They're just different. It's like Friday the 13th 2009.

[@sugaashow]

It was still supernatural. There is a quote in the beginning of the film that hints that myers is possessed by a demon.

[@LVamp]

i think left a room for interpretation more than just saying it was a demon@@sugaashow

[@vadamsvengeance3219]

It’s not supernatural yet Michael survives being shot point blank in the face

[@joedevola2071]

The backstory he wrote was the worst part, in my opinion. The way he made Michael an abused, neglected kid from a horrible white trash family was so cheap. The original movie didn’t have a backstory, and that’s what made Michael so terrifying. He just decided one day to kill his sister.

[@Satanism666-n6n]

The problem is that people think their opinions are facts when it’s not facts. People are totally free to hate his movies or music. But, they need to stop thinking their opinions are facts because it’s not a fact it’s a opinion.

[@iinemesisii8964]

I liked the first one but thought the second was pretty much garbage. Loved, Devil's Rejects and House of a 1000 corpses though

[@KrikZ32]

The first one is good until like an hour in when it decides to just become an almost shot for shot remake of the original. He's got a unique style though, you gotta the respect the guy for becoming a legit original filmmaker when he probably could've just coasted on the rock music.

[@Mclovinit8171]

Cut out the redneck scenes, cut out the stupid teenage dialogue and cut out myers mom being a stripper for no damn reason and in my eyes it can be passable. The ending is strong enough to hold the rest of it up, bc its pretty damn boring outside the last twenty mins if u ask me. Just a whole lot of nothin and slow build to what we already know is coming. So whats the point? it doesnt build tension when we already know michael is gonna escape, when we already know hes finna snap. It just doesnt do much for the story wasting the first hour on the rednecks and the asylum.

Not as a remake, but I liked the grimey modernized adult version of Michael. It was brutal and in your face, but had a lot of stuff that didnt necessarily need to happen.

I enjoyed Zombie's Halloween, but I haven't seen it since it was released on DVD. I'm not sure if i would still enjoy it if I re-watched it today.

[@hichaelhyers]

I didn't really understand what's the takeaway of this. Is it that he was able to make his own, unfiltered, raw vision of Halloween but Bob hated it, so he felt terrible the whole time, or is it that the bad environment and pressure made him not be able to make a decent movie (and get his true vision out) in the first place?

[@lizua]

😂 I love his versions of Halloween. & a big fan of all his horror movies. I honestly have only seen bits and pieces of the other Halloween movies

[@noahherrera5214]

I appreciate and respect Robs Halloween movies as a different interpretation of the original. He wanted to make Rob Zombies Halloween not John Carpenters Halloween

[@davehedgehogUK]

I'm somewhat relieved to hear he was as miserable making it as I was watching it. I still for the life of me can't figure out how it ever got greenlit for a sequel, it was truly horrific, and not in the intended fashion. The scary part about the originals were that Myers was a mystery, a ghoul, a boogeyman - nobody cared nor wanted his back story other than the opening scene and everything that was given after to us was exposition from Loomis. The better horror villains leave most of the backstory to the viewers imagination, and you rarely see their face IF they're a masked killer. They made the same mistake with the Nightmare On Elm Street remake. The Friday 13th wasn't as terrible as those two, but still unnecessary, and the less said about the recent Hellraiser the better, the same goes for Childs Play, the new Exorcist, the later Evil Dead films (the first remake was fairly good.) On the plus side, there's not many left they can remake and butcher, unless they plan on remaking remakes.

[@LarryHazard]

Doing his own version of Michael Myers that had almost nothing to do with the original was what made it interesting, what made it less interesting was the half of the movie that was an actual remake of the original. Remakes in general don't make much sense so doing a different version is better than remaking a movie that never got old in the first place

[@judgegrinch1139]

They are “reimagining” Willy Wonka so yeah they are remaking remakes already

[@metalthrashingnerdpodcast9864]

Wasn't the latest evil dead a remake of a remake

[@zaynes5094]

At least I can still trust Japanese cinema to make solid scary horror and supernatural psychological horror. I mean, American horror isn't bad, and I recently watched The Autopsy of Jane Doe with Brian Cox and I thought it was solid and well done. Not too many jumps cares, but a whole lot of subtly scary scenes that build that fear in you, the viewer, as you're watching it. It's not a perfect movie by any means and it does have some goofy scenes that made me and my mom, who watched it with me, laugh at, but it was still well made.

[@philleotardo8760]

That part in Halloween 2, where Michael is walking through the woods with his hood on and kills those dudes in the truck was brutal. I’m about to go watch that scene on KZbin.

This guy seems like a cool guy to hang out with! Entertainment execs are all pretty much like that. Everyone's ideas suck unless it makes money and then they take credit for. When something flops it's the director or actors faults.

[@davidharris2151]

My miserable experience watching it tops it by a country mile

[@redd3032]

The only thing I liked from his remakes was the first 40 minutes of the first one, the way he showed the evil of Myers by playing out the relationship between him and trejos character was really well done, and the scene in the bathroom stall afterwards just was gold😂 makes me laugh everytime.. the rest was meh to garbage

[@bw5291]

That's funny cause the first 40 minutes is what the movie is most criticized for. You sheep don't even know why you don't like the movie

[@BoogSReviews]

It’s crazy to see so much hate on his Halloween films. I like his Halloween films the best out of the whole franchise. 1 and 2 were amazing. Especially part 2. The way Rob explored Laurie’s trauma (especially in the directors cut) was really cool to see. I like that he did his own thing instead of trying to be a carbon copy of the original. I thought both films were amazing

[@joedevola2071]

Anyone who thinks RZ’s sequel was better than his first one, kinda loses their credibility. On top of the fact that you think they’re the best movies in the Halloween franchise? Keep your reviews to yourself, because they’re fucked. 😂😂😂

[@alicedanger]

Having anyone come in to do any job then ignoring them is disrespectful. The guy was Oscar nominated, he deserves a seat in the room. Even if you resent him being there, it's not his fault, give him some respect and at least let him in the room with you. This all sounds like a red flag for the dumpster fire that would be every single choice Rob made while making the Munsters.

To be fair with the exception of 3 or 4 of the Halloween films the rest are pretty bad. Halloween Resurrection is tough to beat as the worst in most people's minds, but I gotta agree with you, I think I hated Robs 2 films more.
