Halloween (2007, Film Review)

19 July 2009 7:35 AM, PDT | From Fangoria.com | See recent Fangoria news

Restored Archive Review, Originally Posted on 9/6/07

Given how ’70s-inflected his previous features House Of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’S Rejects were, it was perhaps inevitable that Rob Zombie would become involved in the current trend of reduxing low-budget horror’s golden age. And if Halloween had to be remade—which was sadly inevitable under the circumstances—Zombie was inarguably among the best choices for the job. The good news is that his take on John Carpenter’s 1978 classic demonstrates a far greater affinity for the material than the makers of the clueless Assault On Precinct 13 and The Fog remakes. The bad news is that his attempts to simultaneously explore different avenues of the story and stick to the trail forged by Carpenter ultimately cancel each other out.

Movies We Love: A Clockwork Orange

1 July 2009 12:12 PM, PDT | From FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news

A Clockwork Orange (1971) Goodness is something to be chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man. Synopsis Brash ultra-hoodlum Alex DeLarge (Malcolm McDowell) is sent to prison - after ironically raping a woman and causing general terror - where he undergoes The Ludovico Technique, an experimental procedure to make him averse to violence and crime. Unfortunately, it works. Why we Love it Holy Beethoven, this movie is awesome. Back when I was in high school, this movie came to me at just the right age. I had that spirit of invincibility matched with just the right undertones of knowing everything (alongside a love for classical music and thinking too deeply about bullshit) that makes Alex the most charismatic figure in the world. This is probably the most disturbing aspect of the film. Through Stanley Kubrick's writing and directing, and McDowell's portrayal of Alex, the main character becomes the audience's best friend despite
