I thought Rob took the sensibilities from the first Halloween and kind of combined it all with his white trash character cache while changing it just enough to piss off purists. It wasn't the best horror remake I've seen but at least he made it his own and didn't worry about holding back which could have led to a shot by shot remake with no personality.

I can understand why people liked it, but I hate everything he's done so far... I just do.

He definitely has a style that could alienate a lot of viewers but I think in fifteen years he'll be regarded as one of the top genre directors of this period. We'll see what he does next though, I'm still waiting on The Haunted World of El Superbeast...

Eastern Promises ~ certainly not one of my favorite Cronenberg films, but still, its pretty damn good.
