A while back, it was announced that, despite his reluctance to do a sequel, Rob Zombie was in fact working on a sequel to his "re-imagining" of Halloween, titled H2. I wasn't a huge fan of his original film; I felt it lacked the creepy elegance of John Carpenter's 1978 film in favor of a graphic brutality which wasn't very scary at all. It was more like a runaway train, rather than a thriller. The trailer for H2 seems to be a little spookier, what with a certain person from Michael's past popping up as his guide. I thought that was an interesting touch. Of course, there still seems to be plenty of Myers-as-locomotive imagery. Why does Zombie love to have Michael crashing through walls and doors? Maybe that's the secret . . . Michael just wants to be the Little Engine That Could . . . We'll see on August 28. (That's another thing . . . why August? Is Dimension so scared of the Saw franchise that they can't release this closer to actual Halloween?) Post your thoughts below!
