Halloween (2007)
2.5 out of 10
John Carpenter's horror classic gets a subpar remake in Halloween (2007). To the film's credit, it isn't just a blood soaked carbon copy. However, the changes to the story, namely the addition of a lengthy Michael Meyers backstory, are a detriment to the film, robbing the boogeyman of the mystery behind the mask but failing to build any sort of sympathy, leaving me to wonder: why is this movie a thing? Take the useless additions to the story, add script with laughable inconsistencies, soak it in blood and film it through the unsteady lens of a Rob Zombie movie and you have Halloween (2007).
