Worth it: Movies


Rob Zombie's Halloween
I know this is a real groaner to non-horror lovers so I'll say sorry ahead of time. For fans of the original, this is a must-see. Then again, if you're squeemish, you should probably just stop reading. Usually remakes are horrible, but this one stands far-far away from the pack. Rob Zombie has a great eye for filmmaking and should deserve to be noticed more than he already is. In case you didn't know, his other movies are House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects. Yes, cheesy names but great movies nevertheless. Anyway, Zombie takes the original Halloween and gives it a back story which is really great. In the first movie there was really no explanation for why ol' Michael Myers went around stabbing attractive teenage girls. I'm not gonna spoil any of the story so go and pick it up if you're into horror films.
