  7 / 10

  SPOILERS: The 2007 Rob Zombie remake of Halloween is a film that many fans were worried about, but personally I think it turned out very well. Zombie took a slightly different approach in that he explores more of Michael's childhood and his life in the institute with Dr. Loomis. This approach helps to explore some of the unknowns like why Michael hides behind a mask. While I did enjoy the childhood aspect of Zombie's film, my biggest complaint is that it ran a bit long and dragged on. The acting in this film is superior to many of the other films and I very much enjoyed the casting of all of the main and major supporting characters. I particularly enjoyed how they cast Danielle Harris, who played little Jamie in 4 & 5 in a new, more adult role. As expected with a Rob Zombie film, the kills are far more graphic and the gore factor has been turned up a notch. I did feel that the gore was a little bit much for a Halloween film, but just a little. I give Halloween (2007) a 7 out of 10.
