Zombies's Halloween 2 Dvd.......ouch - knewby - 01-17-2010
Well I'm probably way behind most of you guys but I just sat through Zombies H2 and I must say it was one of the worst horror movies I've ever sat through. Seriously bad on almost every level. Michael himself was brutal enough and the kills/makeup were fantastic, but the vision of Rob is polar opposite everthing that makes the original so timeless. Laurie is a foul mouthed nutso, no redeeming qualites whatsovever. Loomis is a buffoon only concerned with lining his pockets. Two of Horrors greatest characters reduced to crap-olah. Jamie Lee just oozed personality in her role and Pleasance was one of the most endearing heros in movies, here their characters are ones you actually root Michael TO kill. I'm not a Zombie hater, but I know a terd when I see one..............................Larry

The beginning (hospital scene) was very cool/intense.... but the whole "white horse" thing is the part of the story where the turds came in.Gotta say though Larry, I didn't hate it. I thought overall it was okay. Loomis' character I do agree with, it was shocking to see what was done with him.... What would DP say lol? As for Laurie, she just experienced hell in H1 so apparently she is totally messed up now. Struggles with the whole thing. The best of the film to me were Danielle Harris and even Brad Dourif.

I wanted to walk out of the theater back in August it was so terrible but I was on a date.I thought I had calmed down a bit and would actually like more of it when I got it on DVD. I was way wrong, the director's cut is worse.

A total trainwreck in my opinion...lol. The flashbacks and dreams and visions totally pulled me out of the movie as well.

The ONLY redeeming parts of the entire film was the begining through the time she woke up . And then I liked the brutallity of the killings throughout the movie . But otehr than that , just plain crap <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"<_<\" border=\"0\" alt=\"dry.gif\" /> . That was Michael Myers ? This whole time I thought it was Hillbilly Jim as a car mech. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":whistling:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"whistling.gif\" /> And how on earth could you kill off Danielle Harris like that ? So wrong ......mike,

RZ's Halloween II is my 4th fav out of the Halloween series. I feel it breathed fresh air in a very stale franchise.
