My thoughts on Halloween (H2). (Spoilers)

by jjor64

Just a few hours ago I seen Halloween 2 (aka H2). The film wasn't to shabby. I can say is that it's different for a Halloween movie and you can definitely tell that Rob Zombie made it. Just like all Zombie movies, the death scenes are brutal. "STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB and one more stab to make sure they are dead" is probably what Michael thinks when he kills someone.

Just a few hours ago I seen Halloween 2 (aka H2).  The film wasn't to shabby.  I can say is that it's different for a Halloween movie and you can definitely tell that Rob Zombie made it.  Just like all Zombie movies, the death scenes are brutal.  "STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB and one more stab to make sure they are dead" is probably what Michael thinks when he kills someone.  The story kinda wasn't there.  Michael is back and he wants Laurie, plain and simple.  Then there were a few goofy scenes when you think "Am I really watching a Halloween film?"  They are just bizarre, you can tell they're from Rob Zombie's twisted mind.
 
There are some flash backs to when Michael was young but, it's not the same actor from the first Zombie movie, it's a completely different kid.  On to another strange scene.  As some people may now,  Weird Al Yankovic is in the film  He is in a scene where Dr. Loomis goes to a talk show to talk about criticism towards his new book.  The Host (Chris Hardwick) tells Loomis what people think about the book and asks Loomis what he thinks of the criticism.  It was a goofy scene and it really wasn't needed in the film.
 
Over all I thought it was a good movie.  Probably not as good as Zombie's first Halloween movie but, still good.
 
P.S.  I'm not very good a critiquing stuff.  :P  Also if you want to know what the whole movie is in a nutshell, check out the Wikipedia page.
