Zombie thoughts.

I like all three of his films. Roger Ebert gave a very positive review to THE DEVIL'S REJECTS. Why does this matter? Ebert is a mainstream critic; it's always important when a mainstream critic acknowledges any genre film; ZOMBIE loves TOBE HOOPER and apparently has an affection for the film,SPIDER BABY as well. The HALLOWEEN remake is decent ,but it really is part prequel and part remake. I really didn't like it at all at first; however, I very much enjoyed it after I bought it on dvd. I think ZOMBIE really is the most important auteur of the genre of the macabre at the moment. He's had three money making films in a row; the first two had some mainstream critical acknowledgement. The third ,well, is an interesting mess.

I'm a fan of ROB ZOMBIE...

I like his music, stageshow,art and movies. However, I do hope he moves on and away from the white trash,TOBE HOOPER stuff.

Not sure if his next movie will do that, here's a poster.

I really loved it.... Not obviously as good as the original. But still a lotta fun, and Michael was a fucking BEAST!

Oh, and the song "Love Hurts" should never be played in a Horror movie, much less a HALLOWEEN movie! :p

I saw this kid today at work who looked just like the kid who played Michael Myers, especially his eyes. Kind of freaked me out.

I liked it, it definately had his stamp on it. The b-grade sleazy, dirty white trash characters. I think The Devils Rejects is my favourite of his.

Thing is though, Zombie is coming into the industry as a FAN of horror, not from film school.
If you look at his films from that POV it makes his movies look alot different.
IMHO
I think he does alright.

That's interesting. I didn't know that, and you're right- it does change things a little.
