People need to stop bitching about "the thorn curse"
 

Everyone claims that halloween 4-5-6 ruined the series due to its random storyline revolving around "a curse".


Im almost done with the Halloween Novel (Original 1979 print), and the VERY first chapter is a story of the origin. I wont get into details, but this totally changed my view of the series.

I love it 10x more now.
If myers was just your average psycho like everyone wants him to be, i find it dull(er), than what the real story is.


The curse is about rage. His grandfather had it.
And it is a result of a night of revenge and hate that took back one halloween during a celtic celebration where a "disabled" villager decided to commit a brutal murder because the woman he loved rejected him for someone more "suitable". (I SHIT YOU NOT)

It sounds ridiculous, but when its read, its such an awesome story.


99% of the "fans" will disagree with me, but i think Rob Zombie should make his version EXACTLY like the book.


What are your thoughts (This IS a horror forum afterall...so lets get down to the nitty gritty)

anyone seen or reviewed HALLOWEEN NIGHT...I saw it on the shelf...seems to be a total rip-off of the Myers idea???
Kids family killed...he's in Asylum....gets out kills on Halloween night...:confused:

Stab, Stab, Slash, Slash...I don't give a shit.

thats pretty much the way i feel about it.

Haven't read the book, didn't know it was out there, but I will now...

Rob Zombie interview.

i never thought 4-6 were bad movies, i actually really liked them. i wish jamie hadn't been killed off cause i'd really like to see her in another movie.

I just can't get into rating a slasher film on storyline, it's unnatural...

which is why i keep saying it's the lowest form of horror their is ..

there have been a couple of good effective ones - but for the huge majority its just a bunch of talentless kids and a talentless director with small budget making a film with absolutely no story or thought other than how to kill off the kids.

then the killer is finally dispatched - only to come back again and again.

you dont even get a resolution.

it amazes me how some people dig watching the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. If it floats your boat - cool - i just dont get it.

i need something new brought to the table - anything !

Hang on, is this a novelisation of the screenplay?

story is everything

bad story=bad movie
