Halloween II (2009) No lack of hate here in other reviews, especially at IMDB. Not sure what the hubbub is cuz i liked it. Maybe it was a bit removed from the original franchise. If that is the main problemo then whatever. i think that Zombie has a style of his own, and a very artsy one at that. His kills are brutal and almost palpable. He seems to drift off into tangential forays of dreamlike psychosis, but that did not seem like filling screen time so much as hinting at the underlying motivations. In fact, i always appreciate a full two hour movie and think that the standard fare 90 minute flick is kinda a jip. The acting was fine, and i thought that there was enough character development to make us care about the main players. The cinematography was incredible. Of course i loved the direction. The story itself was pretty straightforward, but it's all in how it was told. Ashe.
