The 12th Halloween (two of which are Rob Zombie reboots) film is coming out in three weeks time and has just been classified 18 for the reasons above by the Irish film classification office. It sounds about as much fun as being kicked in the nuts. The first film managed to be one of the scariest movies of all time with barely a drop of blood spilled but this just sounds like absolute shock value, another "let's cover up our absolute lack of originality with intestines and hope no-one notices" horror sequel. Plus director David Gordon Green has already told us this is part one of a two film that will conclude in Halloween 2022 thereby negating any bit of tension this film will strive for. Jamie Lee Curtis can't die in part one now and lets be honest, no one gives a fuck about anyone else in the film.
When part 3 came out in 1982 it had a whole different story because producer John Carpenter, who had directed the first installment and produced the second, knew the story of Laurie and Michael was played out. Somehow 39 years later the story keep continuing. It's just embarrassing now. Maybe part 12 will throw a spanner in the works.....nah. It will be the same aul shite again won't it.
