Halloween II
Rob Zombie does it again! He has created a horror flick that has all of the perfect ingredients to becoming a classic!
The main plot is nowhere near the Halloween II brought to us by John Carpenter in 1981. It is a totally different take on the iconic movie, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Rob Zombie’s version shows you who Michael Myers really is, and what motivates him to do the things he does. He follows the ghost of his mother for miles and miles, to get to his sister, Angel Myers (Laurie Strode). This movie will draw you in, making you want to know what happens next, and the ending is shocking.
The acting is great, it contains nearly all of the cast from the 2007 adaptation of the original horror masterpiece. Laurie Strode is played by Scout Taylor-Compton, and Michael Myers is played by Tyler Mane. The only character that changed was Michael Myers in child form. Chase Wright Vanek plays young Myers, as opposed to Daeg Farch. The acting is pretty good, even thought there are only a few known actors/actresses in the movie.
The gore level is absurd, though not quite as absurd as 2007’s Halloween. However, the kill count is still high, and the heads are rolling!
