Halloween (2007)

Oct 31, 04:49 AM

The Apocalypse Video Halloween Retrospective returns in time for the season as we watch Rob Zombie’s 2007 remake “Halloween”.

Evil has a Destiny.

If there’s one thing scarier than Michael Myers, it’s the Harvey Weinstein produced era of the Halloween franchise. Strap in for some white trash horror as we travel back to the year 2007 and see what Mr. Rob Zombie has in store for us with his much maligned remake of Halloween.

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we sift through mounds of candy corn to get to some real candy are fellow cinephiles and former Smith’s Grove patients Ryan and Nick “Immortan Hoof”.

Topics of discussion in this episode include how Rob Zombie turns Michael’s origin story into more of a twisted superhero tale; we wonder where Michael Myers is getting all of that protein powder in the sanitarium; and finally, we ask - Is Michael Myers one of only two patients in Smith’s Grove? For real, we see one other patient in the entire movie and she exists simply as rape fodder for a couple of white trash scumbags. I mean, what the hell is with this movie?!?!
