Dr. Loomis is back on the heels of the killer, but he can not prevent Myers leaves behind a trail of dead bodies behind, because you constantly underestimated him. Just in time for Halloween, he organizes a (waste) battle - Festival and kill pretty much everyone who gets in the way.

The non-steelbook version of HALLOWEEN, the 35th Anniversary Blu-ray release, is in Zavvi's 2 for £12 offer now, over here. I've ordered it (along with the steelbook release of VANISHING POINT - a Christmas present for my dear old mother, Gawd bless 'er). Worth a punt just for the new contextual material, even if I don't like the new transfer, I reckon. Shame the original mono mix isn't present though.

The guys who brought you some of the Saw sequels are going to 'recalibrate' Halloween for us.

Well, they also did Feast and the Collector. Might be decent.

Picked up the Halloween BD box from Amazon the other day. It has both RZ flicks in it, so figured I'd finally check 'em out. Holy shit. Terrible. I don't like his films anyway (still end up buying them, though...how the fuck does that happen?), so all his Rob Zombie-isms pissed me off, but were expected. I didn't think the second could be worse than the first, but I was wrong. That was miserable. Plus, they play Laurie up to be a huge cunt the whole time and then they pull off that heavy handed ending? Yuck. Well, at least it wasn't Thelma & Louise like The Devil's Rejects.

We get to see Daniel Harris' tits though.

I just read somewhere that they are going to reboot the HALLOWEEN franchise without Zombie....

the writing team of Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan have signed on to write a new entry in the Halloween series, but it won't be a remake of an existing film, or a brand-new reboot of the series, either. Instead, it will be a "recalibration." What does that mean? Who knows. Does it really matter, anyway?

Word around town has it that the producer's cut of H6 is getting a standalone Blu release from Lionsgate in Sept. with a $10 MSRP.

Lemme act surprised. Okay I'm done. I don't really like the Producer's Cut, the only thing it had going for it was more Donald Pleasence. Other than that, it didn't make a lot of sense and just felt weak, especially the ending.

This dude does a good job covering both versions: http://cinemassacre.com/2011/10/28/halloween-6/

And I agree with him, the theatrical cut at least has more gore and is a little more entertaining.

More Donald is always a good thing...
