Customer Ratings & Reviews

Entertaining movie! In my opinion better than most slasher movies!! And Jessica Beil is nice to look at too!!!

Rob Zombie at his best. Not quite as good as Devil's Rejects, but great in itself.

I love movies like this. Bloody and guts, intense moments, and great music too.

I love this movie and was very happy to get it on Blu Ray. The HD picture and sound are great!

Is this a great movie? I don't think so. But is it as terrible like a lot of people claim? Not at all. You want awful? Look no further than the truly awful prior Halloween movie (Resurrection). Now THAT movie was terrible! Also, you might wanna skip the sequel to this movie. That was really bad as well. I give this one 3 1/2 stars!

Good movie to watch especially at night with all lights out

Great movie fore Halloween, waiting for them to make part 2

I have watched this movie many times before. Extras on this BluRay were good

Rob Zombie recreated this as the best it could've ever been

it is one of the better Jason movies that i have watched

I enjoyed this remake of the iconic series. To be fair, Im a big RZ fan.

Love love love good Halloween movies. Rob zombie is genious

Rob Zombie starts off with a unique but slow beginning, then the movie turns into an unoriginal remake

Easy ordering process, I would order again and recommend it to others

I don't know why everyone is bashing this film, but I am a die-hard fan of the Halloween movies and the horror genre, and I thought this movie was a nice remake to the best and original Carpenter film. It's certainly more entertaining than the sequels that previously came out, and this film sets a more serious and modern harsh reality of what it could be like if this happened today. Carpenter's original film took place in 1978, so I found it to be a nice homage for Zombie to begin the origins of young Michael Myers in 1978. For the first time, we actually get to see what kind of family and childhood that Michael grew up in, which explains so much to his psychotic condition. As a child, Michael's facsination with torturing and killing innocent animals presents an accurate profile for such a future serial killer. This film actually has some explanations behind it, which is vacant in all other Halloween films. Zombie's direction is rough and gritty, but certainly adds to the atmosphere and chilling story -- my heart was pounding when young Michael was slaying his sister and her boyfriend. As for Zombie using the same cast as his other films, it's really no different than what Carpenter did either (How many Carpenter films was Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Atkins, Charles Cyphers, Donald Pleasence, Nancy Loomis, and Adrienne Barbeau were in? I can count at least 3). I've seen the original film about a thousand times, and Zombie's remake can never replace Carpenter's classic, but this film is worth the effort and respect. I'm looking forward to the Unrated DVD version, which will have a lot of scenes restored that was cut from the theatrical release.

If you are a horror fan you will like this movie. It has all the classic horror attributes. But it also bring in the new school horror elements as well. Rob zombie tells the story in a similar manner but with twist and a deeper dive into the heart of the characters. Even to the point of making Micheal seem human and we all know he is evil incarnate! Is this Oscar worthy? NO! But not every movie has to be perfect some times raw and imperfect works just as well! The story is told with heart but he had to stick to the story because it was a remake/retelling so he was confined into what was! The kills were there the story was there and the characters were there. It smoothly transitions from young Micheal to teen Michael to Adult killer! It stays true to the story so no worries for us HALLOWEEN fans it right up our alley! What people need to remember is that this is just a freshening to the series not the deathnail or rebirth of the franchise! It takes what we love the Halloween series and gives it a make over! It's just a good movie not great but a really enjoyable watch even after my fifth watch of the movie

I am a big fan of all of the original Halloween (except #3). I definately don't think that Rob Zombie was able to top the original Halloween, but he shed some light on many things that were left up to the imagination.how michael myers escaped...what drove him to kill his sister, though he kills most of his family in the origional....how his costume came to be ....how he knew how to find Lori..etc..I also have to give Rob Zombie credit for bringing a darkness to this movie that John Carpenter couldn't, in fact there aren't many directors willing to be as to do most of the things that Rob Zombie will gladly do. Which i think is amazing. Bottom line, I think he did an amazing job with this remake..

I will admit I was not happy when I heard they were going to make a remake of John Carpenter's Halloween. There are many classic movies that should never be remade and I thought this was one of them. When I heard Rob Zombie was directing the movie I was curious about seeing the movie. I am happy I did. Rob Zombie took the original Halloween movie and made it better. The first movie lacked any character development when it came to Michael Myers. He was just an ominous figure lurking in the shadows that would come out and strike at any time killing his victims. Rob Zombie gave Myers a history and personality. The original Halloween worked because it was new and it was scary. However, what Rob Zombie did was developed an actual character and made Michael Myers interesting. This is a must see movie. Thank you Rob!

Rob Zombie is a film making visionary! He took john carpenters original Halloween and added so many backgrounds to the story line. At the beginning of the film, the history of Michael Myers makes you sympathetic toward the soul less monster. As the film progresses, and Michael escapes the psych ward, the story picks up where Carpenters began. There were points in the movie when I hoped Micheal was going to show some glimmer of remorse and a softer side, but then BAM, he attacks again! Great flick, I think it was better than the original!

Definately recommended !DVD Quality is great, and the extras are appreciated ! Ok, I'm gonna come right out and say it...Halloween should never have been remade, but since we remake everything these days, who better than Zombie to helm this task? His junior film effort pays off as this is an excellent spin on the classic tale of old Mikey. Halloween is of course about Michael Meyers and Zombie elaborates on this theme by giving us almost a biography through Michael's eyes. My advice is, treat this as it's own freestanding film. Do not compare to Carpenter's version because if you're gonna do that, you might not like this. Rather, as a friend told me, treat this as the Michael Meyers of a parallel dimension or something. It's enjoyable and Zombie deserves an A for effort, so go easy on him.
