I did not think it was that bad but its not as good as his dad's work



This Halloween, Anchor Bay Entertainment releases Staunton Hill on October 6, 2009.

Directed by the son of legendary cult filmmaker George A. Romero, Cameron Romero is clearly following in his father's fearful footsteps as a master of terror and suspense.

When a group of hikers take off for a weekend of fun and adventure in remote mountain region, they unwittingly stumble across the Staunton family - for whom the hill is named - and find themselves at the mercy of a depraved, diabolical brood that will stop at nothing to rid their property of these "trespassers." The only law on Staunton's Hill is the law of the Stauntons...and, in this case, the penalty for defying that law is death.

Staunton Hill stars Kathy Lamkin (No Country for Old Men), Cristen Coppen (Road Trip), Kiko Ellsworth (Dexter) and Cooper Huckabee (The Funhouse).

One of the best Barker adaptations, IMO.

i felt the same exact way.

the only saving grace was seeing it in a theatre full of screaming teenage girls - so i was able to enjoy the nostalgia that brought - more than the movie itself.

raimi - you just cant go all the way back home again.

I can't understand the attraction to Halloween II. Please do not take this as an attack on you, because one of my best friends LOVES H2. I just can't stand the film.

It's a week re-tread with poor direction, bad acting, an annoying interpreatation of one of the greatest soundtracks of all time and the lead character (the only truly sympathetic and fully realized character in the film) is asleep until the climax.:confused:

Sure it ends well, but getting to that ending is like pulling teeth. John Carpenter's Halloween is soooooo good, but the sequel feels empty and uninspired to me.

I'd rather watch Halloween III, as incoherent as it may be, anyday.

Perfect companion piece to The Haunting, and certainly a very suitable Halloween watch.
