With horror films being my favorite film genre, it only makes sense that my favorite genre film is the new “Halloween” directed by Rob Zombie, which came out in 2007. I have always liked all of the “Halloween” films but the way Rob Zombie remade this film made it even better. The remake took viewers deeper into Michael Myers’ mind and even gave us his history, showing us what his childhood was like and what exactly made him the way he became. That simple factor of adding in the killer’s history was the reason this movie became my favorite; not only was the original remade and updated, but newer information was added in helping viewers to put together the mystery of Michael Myers. Not too many remakes add in a lot of information and extra scenes that were not in the original movie; so this is an original move that made this movie successful! When remaking a film, adding in your own theories and thoughts about the characters is a good way to give your own twist to the movie!
