Hey you know what’s funny? You know how Rob Zombie directed a remake of Halloween? And you know how just a few years earlier Zombie said a filmmaker who does a remake is an “asshole”? Well… he’s doubling up and doing the sequel now.
I’m not a fan of Rob Zombie as a director at all and I certainly didn’t like the first Halloween flick he did (the funny thing is, I really dig his music). So obviously I have about 0% anticiaption for his follow up, H2 (oh what a clever name). Anyway, the first pictures from H2 are now online over at the site of our good friends at ShockTillYouDrop. You can see them here.
Oh, and for those of you who forgot… here’s what Rob Zombie said about directors who make remakes…. just before he went and did a remake:
I feel it’s the worst thing any filmmaker can do. I actually got a call from my agent and they asked me if I wanted to be involved with the remake of Chain Saw. I said no fucking way! Those movies are perfect – you’re only going to make yourself look like an asshole by remaking them. Go remake something that’s a piece of shit and make it good. Like with my movie (House of 1000 Corpses) I have elements of Chain Saw in it because I love that movie so much, but I wouldn’t dare want to “remake” it. It’s like a band trying to be another band.
