No, I don't think it's going to be good at all. If he wants to show us his refreshing perspective on things, he should keep making original movies. I saw his first remake of Halloween and it was absolutely terrible. He is turning Michael Myers into a completely different thing. If you can at all tolerate the fact that in his first movie he laid the grounds for Michael's motives and now plans to completely expose his motives in this new one, you do not appreciate the original movie at all. Michael did NOT have motives. You cannot give motives to a motive-less monster and expect it to be at all reminiscent of the original monster. He could have done all of this with a whole new killer and possibly have created his own horror icon. But to take an icon that already exists and destroy the very thing that made him so TERRIFYING to begin with...well, that's unforgivable. And all of you that think this movie is going to be good are demonstrating your lack total lack of understanding. And God forbid any of you are seeing these remakes without having seen the original.
TERRIBLE!!! There is no secret as to why Michael is a murderer. He is just evil incarnate. That was what was so scary about him. He had NO motive, no reason to be evil, he just WAS. The notion that someone can simply be purely evil is so much more frightening than another child with a bad home life turning into a serial killer. UGH! And I liked Rob Zombie's first two flicks. WHY did they give him the rights to ruin one of the most beloved horror icons of all time!!?!?
