Oh yeah I didn't mention it, but I'm REALLY happy that they decided to do a remake and not a prequel. Now I just hope they keep it very simple and reality based which is what made the original work so well. I don't want any cheese or excess gore.

I really wish they'd release the entire series in a special edition collectors set. I believe Friday the 13th and Freddy have collections. Speaking of, I need to buy them! I love me some horrors! I also need to get Day of the Dead and Land of the Dead which I haven't seen yet.

I'm being a bad horror fan at the moment.

Actually, in the UK there is a Halloween boxed set, I remember seeing it on Amazon.com or something about a year ago. The only problem with that is that UK DVD's dont normally play on US players without a special connection or converter. I would LOVE to see the Haloween boxed set get released here, instead of thirty thousand director/special editions of the first and best. Don't get me wrong, Halloween is one of my all time fave movies, but enough is enough!

In the USA I think like Universal owns the rights to the first three, a defunct independent studio owned the next two and Dimension owns the rest.

I wish we could get a SE of H4 that has alot more stuff than the same special feature and a commentary.

I have a DVD that plays all regions, so I'll check out the UK version.

Another Halloween movie?! How many have there been now? Same old same old. He comes back and they die. At least this one will be about when he was younger. Just because a movie does good with a sequal or two doesn't mean you should keep making em'. Its over kill and it ruiens what you have.

Yeah, but the last few remakes have made money. As long as the teens and horror buffs are going to see them, Hollywood won't stop making them.

Independent cinema is where horror has some originality to it, but most of these movies are hampered by low budgets and the filmakers using their friends and relatives in the cast who act just as bad as Farah Fath.

Now now, Bree. Its not fair to compare a nice young nude girl being slaughtered on Halloween to a no talent hack like Fath.

I do like some remakes, though. Texas Chainsaw I found to be quite good actually, and I LOVED the Hills Have Eyes. When a Stranger Calls should have been called When an Idiot Writes a Screenplay though.

I didn't see it but I guess it did well enough for a sequal. I guess they are gonna call it When a Stranger Calls 2 or When a Stranger Calls Again. Or maybe When People Let an Idiot Write a Sequal ( for leevo) ...
