How do you defend the White Horse bullshit
The Zombie movies are kino
I enjoyed the surrealist images
Zombie's and DGG's movies have on thing in common: the Michael scenes are fricking awesome and well shot, everything else is skippable.
Seriously if you think the ambulance scene in Zombie's H2 is trash I don't know what to tell you.
He needed a reason to shoehorn his wife into it.
It was lame 2bh, but I like it as Michael being a complete schizo listening to the voices in his head and seeing a white horse. I guess the originals left more to the imagination which I appreciate, but lil trailer-trash Michael spoke to the whole hood, black or white
those parts both suck and have some interesting genuinely spoopy imagery (aside from the horse itself)
also enjoyed Loomis' characterisation as being a lot more cynical and complicit in Myers' creation than the originals were ever willing to admit. always seemed weird to me that the original movie treated this guy as a heroic figure when all he does is talk about wanting to kill this one ex-patient, he seems obsessed and psychotic IMO - it only works in the first movie because there's excellent ambiguity as to whether Myers is genuinely paranormal or not so i think you're meant to be a bit unsure about Loomis in that one.
>films are so lifeless even the director is a Zombie
You should be watching all of them you stupid little fool.
moron, i watch all the timelines every october, alone, by myself, without a gf!!
Basado
I rewatched Kills the other night and actually enjoyed it. Only thing that ruined it was me knowing what Ends had coming, so the setup at the end of Kills just made no fricking sense
Cursed is still my favorite. Not the producer's cut.
I rewatched the first two of the new trilogy last year, begging, hoping to GOD it was gonna be a great payoff, and I cannot even begin to describe to you how disappointed I was when I saw Halloween Ends. I imagine it was the same way Star Wars fans felt watching the prequels. Halloween Ends was my Prequels. I don't want to start an argument about how much that movie sucked (even though it was a decent horror film) it fricking SUCKED dog dick in the Halloween lore. Real Halloween fans just pretend that film never happened.
Halloween Kills was so embarrassing i didnt even watch Ends.
Some people will claim it's secretly good and not like kills but don't believe them it's exactly as pretentious and shitty with Laurie's moronic monologuing
Kills was terrible, people online will defend anything
I haven't seen much kills defending but there's definitely been some ends apologists.
Kills was good. As a last testament to Michael Myers it was good. A lot of people here compared him to Jason Voorhees, and I guess that's fair. He was kind of a bit too much of a machine. He was def Terminator in Kills, but I didn't mind. Myers is my favorite of the big three slashers, the silent stalker, but I have to admit I did like seeing a new take on him. In the later 90s films he did become an unkillable force of nature, so that was just ingrained in my head when I saw him walk out of the burning house with that pick. Honestly, in my pleb mind, you can't go wrong if Myers is stabbing people, but somehow Ends managed to get the whole fricking formula all wrong. I think it's worse than Resurrection
Solid take.
I don't give a shit I go to see Myers be a killing machine, not have a ten minute cameo in a movie based around some greasy dude who got his ass kicked by the band geek mafia
Ends is fricking baffling. It doesn't even connect to Kills.
It would also be a strictly better movie if it didn't try to connect back to Kills or have Michael in it at all.
>Kills was good. As a last testament to Michael Myers it was good.
Literally fricking how? He gets his ass beat for no reason, then doesn't then limps off to the sewer. Kills is probably the worst possible end point for him imaginable even as dogshit as Ends was it's still ever so slightly less fricking moronic.
Myers finally met a mob of outraged citizens that he couldn't overpower. They corned and beat him down. That should have been the final scene of Ends 2bh. I don't remember how he gets away, do they just leave him to die? The new trilogy had terrible writing from the start, no true Hallowenn fan considers it canon
>s that he couldn't overpower
he does tho
yeah, he does. and then he gets up and walks away. what's your point? i hate the way that film ends, i think rob zombie of all fricking people understood the character better than any other Hollywood moron writer
The point is he doesn't find a mob of outraged citizens he can't overpower. He literally overpowers them. It's not any different than any time anyone else fought back and died except it's about 100x stupider.
Yeah, we agree. we both think Halloween Kills has a stupid ending, escpailly since we knew there was a follow up film. We thought there were going to be some big final revelation of Myers. Was he scihizo? Was he sadistic? Instead we got some gay romance filler. God I fricking hate Halloween Ends
>Literally fricking how? He gets his ass beat for no reason, then doesn't then limps off to the sewer. Kills is probably the worst possible end point for him imaginable even as dogshit as Ends was it's still ever so slightly less fricking moronic.
I think you're confusing Ends with the ending of Kills.
Kills ends with him surviving gun shots, stabbings, etc. And then just standing in the window looking out his sister's window - something other character's kept emphasizing. All this along JLC saying with every kill the darkness gets stronger. They were clearly setting up something, then with Ends they went "nope nevermind, he's an old man in the sewer"
Rob Zombies Halloweens are way better than the new trilogy. At least he tried to make films. Those Gordon Green movies are happy meal trash products.
H2 > H1
I like the Rob Zombie flicks, H1 feels so tamed and trying so hard to be a "halloween" movie. H2 goes balls to the wall crazy and it works
H1 was constant studio interference by Harvey's brother. That's why the first half is "original" and the second half is beat for beat Carpenter's H1.
The second is fantastic, mainly because Rob didn't want to make it but said "frick it - if you're going to make another one let me do it my way" and just put it all out there.
I saw it opening morning in an empty theater it was surreal as frick. Still watch it every Halloween.
If only he could have had actors capable of sharing the screen with Brad Douriff. Scout is awful.
Genuinely the best in the series aside from the original and Kills.
Zombie's entire demographic is white trash that celebrate being white trash. Casting the same hillbilly fricks in every single movie he makes.
yeah so??
Well, it made bank at the box office. Granted, H2 didn't make nearly as much as his H1, but it was still a profit. I still think H2 is way better that than anything the new trilogy had to offer. Maybe other than Myers going Jason Bourne and slamming that dudes that dude's hand in the car door and turning the gun on him
he could of made a great texas chainsaw or friday the 13th, or even a decent freddy or hellraiser, but halloween did not need this.
Friday the 13th sucks, Jason sucks, that whole mythos sucks. Everyone know it was just a Halloween ripoff with more le heckin gory kills. Tom Savini is the only reason that movie is only halfway noteworthy now
But I will admit, as much as it pains me to say, Texas Chainsaw is the OG slasher. Shouts out to Toby Hooper. That movie is terrifying. Leatherface is is mostly based on a guy that didn't live too far away from my family, so I take some weird sick sense of pride of that film
I thought the movie Carpenter ripped off was the OG slasher
surely peeping tom or psycho or 'M' are the original slasher?
I unironically agree with this ranking, the Zombie films have soul even though they are far from perfect.
the original is honestly pretty overrated compared to contemporaries in giallo movies, texas chainsaw even earlier proto-slashers like Black Christmas and Peeping Tom hold up better today than Halloween, sookier and more finesse. For me Halloween is perfectly fine and i respect the legacy but it's like vanilla John Carpenter kino. where i prefer the excess and hectic antics of the thing, they live, prince of darkness
