Rob Zombie’s Halloween
Nearly two decades after being committed to a mental institution for killing his stepfather and older sister, Michael Myers breaks out, intent on returning to the town of Haddonfield, Ill. He arrives in his hometown on Halloween with the indomitable purpose of hunting down his younger sister, Laurie. The only thing standing between Michael and a Halloween night of bloody carnage is psychologist Dr. Samuel Loomis.

-
"Zombie delivers a scary horror movie immediately recognizable as his own -- something that will come as a welcome relief to fans who've diligently sat through seven "Halloween" sequels in hopes of one day reliving the original's terrifying magic."
- Ken Fox, TV GUIDE MAGAZINE -
"Zombie puts his own spin on "Halloween," while at the same time paying tribute to Carpenter's film, and he's successful at both."
- Peter Hartlaub, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE -
"Rather than the knowing, high-gloss mode favoured by some revamps of vintage titles, Zombie takes things seriously, with nasty results."
- Ben Walters, TIME OUT
