My Review-

First off this movie was ruined by the theme that made the movie famous as well being RUINED. Also the acting in this movie, you would think would be better from Curtis and Arkin, but no it was shitty and seemed forced, even though I have not really seen any other of the Halloween films beside the 1978 verison, and both of Rob Zombie's versions this one was still crappy and seems like they wanted to make to bring back Michael Myers for a new generation and they failed at it. Big time. This movie lost all the suspense the original movie had and its kinda sad this movies kept being made with out Carpenter, because when John Carpenter did the original one it was brilliant. Now it seems to have scares just to have them at the most random times and by sticking random eerie music where ever they felt like sticking the music. I would not recommend this film be watched, it was short enough to get everything done and out of the way but it was just not that good. I actually like the remakes of the Halloween franchise than I do this movie. Possibly the best part of the movie was LL Cool J and he wasn't even in the film half the time, also along with JGL and it sucked because he died. Avoid this movie at all costs and watch something else if you ever come across this movie.
