The Devil's Rejects director Rob Zombie resurrects one of the most notorious slashers in screen history with this re-imagining of the 1978 John Carpenter classic that spawned numerous sequels and countless imitators. As a child, young Michael Myers (Daeg Faerch) committed one of the most unspeakable crimes imaginable. Subsequently locked in an asylum and placed under the care of Dr. Loomis (Malcolm McDowell), the hollow-eyed boy grew into an emotionless man determined to escape back to his hometown of Haddonfield and complete the murderous mission that he began so many years back. These days, the long-abandoned Myers house sits decrepit and overgrown on a peaceful suburban street, its boarded windows and rotting wood a silent testament to the slaughter that has haunted Haddonfield for decades. Now Michael Myers (Tyler Mane) is back, and as the children of this typical Midwestern town fill the sidewalks for a fun-filled night of tricks and treats, Haddonfield is about to find out that there is no escape from pure evil. Brad Dourif, William Forsythe, Udo Kier, Dee Wallace, Sheri Moon Zombie, Danny Trejo, and Adrienne Barbeau co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    I liked this one, it let us know where it all started and how. A dysfunctional family, who figured! I liked it. They could have gotten a few better actors.

    I think Mr. Zombie kind of missed the point. What was originally so appealing about Michael Meyers was that we knew nothing about him, except that he was coming to kill and couldn't be stopped. This film's addition of a comprehensive backstory does nothing to help, because Michael Meyers isn't really a character so much as a plot device. Perhaps ole' Rob was trying to cancel out the downright stupid backstory that developed over the course of the previous installments in the series by adding this admittedly far less stupid one, but I felt the whole thing to be an exercise in futility. However, this IS a well-made film. Which one you like more is really a matter of personal taste. I was more impressed by John Carpenter's meticulous restraint and control than by Rob Zombie's signature brutality. But I will grant that casting Malcolm McDowell as the unhinged Dr. Loomis (who may be as dangerous to those around him as Michael Meyers himself) was a stroke of genius.
