I freakin' hated that movie SO MUCH in the theater and I decided to give the director's cut a chance. It just made me hate it more. I read Kindertrauma's eval as well, and I just don't agree. Scout Taylor Compton (who I love) just whined her way through the director's cut even more than the theater version.<br /><br />I reviewed it here:<br />http://www.thescreamqueen.net/2009/09/halloween-ii-2009.html<br /><br />and here:<br />http://www.thescreamqueen.net/2010/01/halloween-2-directors-cut-2009.html<br /><br />That said, I do dorkily love the remake of the TCM and I think you should give it another chance ;o)The Scream Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01134412515279573222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132620721136610844.post-88592457238153756362010-09-21T08:37:00.446-05:002010-09-21T08:37:00.446-05:00Wow, really?

I loved that movie... thought and still kinda think that it's the best remake out there (I have my reasons, but mind you, I wrote this when I just started my blog and hadn't gotten into my "flow" yet so the writing is mucho choppy: http://thegirlwholoveshorror.blogspot.com/2010/05/remakes-of-classic-horror-films.html). <br />Anyway, you really don't need to give a Halloween 2 a second chance. Trust me, it's just as bad as you remember it.<br />And Hills Have Eyes 2 is very much AWESOME, see that one again. A great plot where the soldiers have to go inside the caves of the mutants. I like it a lot.<br />Oh, and uh, no mutant sex, but rather a mutant violently raping one of the female soldiers. Not necessarily something to look forward to, but a good scene in showing the brutality of the "Papa" mutant.Michele (TheGirlWhoLovesHorror)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03309044766117909683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132620721136610844.post-26526326199009669082010-09-21T08:25:10.530-05:002010-09-21T08:25:10.530-05:00Ahhhh, so happy to see more Halloween II rage.

Dr. Manilla has done extensive study of the affect of watching this film more than one on lab rats. "All the rats that had been made to endure Pumpkinhead II a second time drown themselves in their own water bottles within 1 hour of viewing this film. The rats only made to view this film once only suffered minor annoyance by the fact that this sequel did not follow the mythology of the Pumpkinhead character laid out in the first film."<br />He's an expert so I'm going to take his word on this, I think you would be wise to do the same. <br />But yeah, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is awesome.

I know that there are a few people who like it and that's cool, but it's going to take some time for me to want to see it again. <br /><br />Great post!Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16750937782240207576noreply@blogger.com
