“Go for it. Make it your movie.”

According to director Rob Zombie (The Devil's Rejects) during a special feature titled “Re-Imagining Halloween,” that is what John Carpenter said when he respectfully contacted him to tell him he was directing a remake of his 1978 classic. Zombie goes on to say that when he decided to remake -- sorry re-imagine -- Halloween he wanted avoid making a shot-by-shot remake since that movie already exists (agreed).

DVD Review: Caligula: The Imperial Edition

Caligula: The Imperial Edition DVDCaligula
3-DVD Imperial Edition
Image Entertainment
Release date: October 2007


CALIGULA.

At the mere mention of the name, eyes roll and brows furrow, typically evoking reactions of either perverse pleasure or derisive disgust. Based on the reign of the notoriously sadistic and perverted Roman emperor of the same name, this erotic historical epic is widely considered to be the most controversial (and catastrophic) film in cinematic history.

As a big fan of both the ancient world and pornography, I’ve always loved this film. In fact, my best friend (and pagan high priest) Lord Julian — who shares my aforementioned affinities — and I have even taken to shouting “CALIGULA!” at moments of extreme debauchery and/or brutality.

Movie Review: Rob Zombie's Halloween

Rob Zombie's HalloweenThis weekend, a thousand blogs will post reviews with countless comparisons, both positive and negative, between director and writer Rob Zombie's re-imagining to that of John Carpenter's classic. This review, in an attempt to stand out, will feature zero comparisons. And so, without further ado, Rob Zombie's Halloween ...

Ten-year-old Michael Myers, the product of a dysfunctional and broken family, has slowly been building up a terrible darkness inside him. Berated by his stepfather, ignored by his older sister, and picked on at school, Michael finds solace behind a clown’s mask and the killing of small animals. On Halloween night, after yet another run-in with bullies, Michael finally takes the next step in becoming a monster as he systemically murders everyone in his house. He is placed in Smith’s Grove Sanitarium, under the watchful eye of Dr. Loomis, who try as he may, is unable to tap into Michael...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!
