Haven’t seen it, and won’t. I remember the original too well, and hold it as legend. The story of its making is as fantastic as the film itself. The budget was almost entirely spent, and they realized that they hadn’t even decided what the monster would wear. The only thing they could come up with for the scene to be shot that night was a latex Captain Kirk mask painted silver. How can you touch that?

You reminded me how incredibly good “The Butcher Boy” is, and so I am grateful. Sinead O’Connor as The Virgin Mary: “Ah, fer fuck’s sake Francie!”

but but …. i HEART Mr. Zombie and his lurvely wife….they rock. I know I know everyone is giving it the thumbs down, but in all honesty, i love the hardball beginning where they show their earnest white trash cultish family antics, right down to the baby crying and dirty step daddy. The boy wonder himself is just awesome I concur. I was a bit disappointed that they didn’t show the big dudes face at any point, but i loved the silly masks he made himself in his cell. all in all i’m a big fan of both carpenter and zombie and i was quite pleased with the movie. i expected nothing as far as change or plot and was therefore pleasantly surprised to have a rendition of the original in a more modern setting with a bit more detail and explanation as to the psyche of the Michael Myers…..j’adore le movie….nicely written critic there. kudos.

I have invented a machine that transforms Leather wallets in Silk Purses… It also makes coffee on a timer!
Honestly, the poster might as well say “You know this is gonna be a pile so go rent Caddyshack tonight eh?” or something…
