Alternative Child Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Remember Tyler Bates? The guy who scored the movie THE DEVILS REJECTS? Well we just found out that he will be doing the music for Rob Zombie's HALLOWEEN. If you head over to his official website (or just click here) you can actually listen to the new HALLOWEEN theme. The tune hasn't changed much folks, it's the music we all love. This new HALLOWEEN project is said to be a "prequel and a remake, combined." This new movie is meant to open up a new chapter and take the series into a whole different direction. Think of it as the "Batman Begins" of the HALLOWEEN franchise. Rob Zombie's new take on the horror classic hits theatres on October 19th, 2007. Rob Zombie's Halloween is a prequel/remake of the first film in the Halloween film series. The film will be written, produced, and directed by Rob Zombie, and is expected to be released on October 19, 2007. Reports indicate that the film will not be a straight remake of the 1978 original, but rather an updated "re-imagining", similar to that of New Line Cinema's 2003 version of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Universal's 2004 version of Dawn of the Dead [1]. On June 5, 2006, after several days of speculation, the official website of the Halloween film franchise announced that Rob Zombie, director of House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects, would be writing, directing and producing the next Halloween film while also serving as music supervisor. In a recent interview, Rob Zombie announced that, despite reports of the contrary, his film would not be Halloween 9 because that series had finished. Instead, his plans call for a whole new beginning to the franchise with no connections to the previous films. While the intent is to make a new version of the film, Rob Zombie has made it clear that the Michael Myers mask will remain. Apparently, John Carpenter has given his blessing to Rob Zombie [2] and Malek Akkad will assist in producing, replacing Moustapha Akkad, his deceased father. This is going to be awesome. Who else is looking forward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthYENIK Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Does the movie need a remake? I don't think so. Then again most remakes are unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alternative Child Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 This time its going to be a "Re Imaging" (sp?). Its going to focus more on the childhood of Micheal and of course leading up to the 1970' era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovy Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Halloween did not need some bullsh*t "Re Imaging" or remake by a sh*tty director. This is bound to suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayo Puño Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I like Rob Zombie's films, so far. House of 1000 Corpses wasn't that great, but I think it got a little too harsh of criticism. I loved The Devil's Rejects though. I'll check it out for sure, can no way say if it'll be good or not yet, there is no way to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exkabewbikadid Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Halloween did not need some bullsh*t "Re Imaging" or remake by a sh*tty director. This is bound to suck. Yeah, remaking or "reimaging" (what a load of marketing horse sh*t) all of these old films is just not gay and outright disgraceful. Not to mention Rob Zombie f*cking sucks at cinema and music. House of 1000 Corpses had a few innovative parts, but it was mostly an overdose of annoying techniques. Count me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricornus Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Well you know how sh*tty some of these remakes have been lately. The remakes never match up to the original. I think the 1st Halloween movie was splendid. It doesn't need a remake. But we'll see what the reviews look like for this remake whenever it hits thearters. And besides I thought they were working on a sequel to Halloween: Resurection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
