[More Cowbell]

*SLIGHT SPOILERS*
This movie is really good. The first 30 minutes or so we see Michael as a young boy and how his evil side really starts to show. The next 20 mintues we see his sanity slowly slip away completely in the mental institution. The next hour, which is the remake portion of the film, is actually a re-imaging of the film. Some scenes are re shot word for word, but others are completely altered. Rob Zombie has put evil back into MM, which has been sorely lacking for years. Going in to see this, I hope no one is expecting to hear corny one liners and half assed death scense or a poor cliche' slasher story line, because this is much, much more. This movie really makes Michael Myers embedded into the minds of everyone as the epitome of what you never want to run into in a dark alley.
"Behind those eyes, it's pure black, pure evil. These are the eyes of a psychopath."

To me, the original movie did just that. If Rob Zombie's version can come close to being as good as the original, I'll be impressed (and somewhat surprised).
