Weinstein Company Shuts Down Halloween 3D. Halloween 2 Set For Re-Release.
According to Deadline minutes ago, the Weinstein Company has temporarily (permanently?) pulled the plug on pre-production for Halloween 3D. With rumors circulating today throughout the industry that Summit Entertainment, flush with Twilight monies, might pursue an acquisition of TWC, this is not a good look. Sources tell Nikki Finke that TWC simply believed the production…

Halloween 3D Slated For Summer 2010 Without Rob Zombie
Over the weekend, the conclusion to Rob Zombie's fresh take on the franchise, Halloween II, grossed $17 million. Budgeted at $15 million, the sequel would likely have grossed much more if not for direct competition with the weekend's top movie and debut, The Final Destination 3D (a very healthy $28m). Today, the rebounding Weinstein Company…

Halloween II Set Visit Report. Update: Post-Screening Verdict
Post-Screening Update: In short, my verdict on Halloween 2 is that it's superior to Rob Zombie's first effort and a far more entertaining film. Zombie definitely listened to criticism that the first film wasn't holiday-oriented. In this one, he stages a trippy Last Supper with Jack-o-Lanterns. And moreover, it works for chrissakes. The critics labeling the…

Rob Zombie Interview Part 1: H2 (Halloween 2), Michael Myers As A Serial Killer, "White Trash," And Weird Al
Last month, /Film visited the set of H2 (Halloween 2). After flying into Atlanta, Georgia, a colleague and I followed a publicity firm's map and drove far out into the country, down winding roads encased by high trees that exhaled into healthy farmland.

H2: Halloween 2 Update: Rob Zombie Clarifies To /Film On The Mask. New Poster
We'll be posting my rather epic interview today with Rob Zombie shortly. In the meantime, here's an excerpt in which he clears up misconceptions surrounding Michael Myers' "mask-less ratio" in H2 (Halloween 2). You may recall previous reports that Myers will go mask-less for 70% of the film. But as Zombie emphasized in good humor,…

H2 Movie Trailer (Rob Zombie's Halloween 2)
The first trailer for Rob Zombie's H2 has premiered on Yahoo Movies. The nitpicking over canon is inevitable, but I find this trailer to be quite strong and, in parts, genuinely unsettling. Zombie clearly isn't preoccupied with horny teens, and for the horror genre, that's a damn good thing. The many looks of Michael Myers…

Michael Myers Appears, Appears Again, Disappears Then Reappears
Rob Zombie's MySpace account handlers have been getting busy with the H2 image posting of late. This morning, not only did the MySpacemeisters post a new picture of Shape-looking Shatner-masked Mike Meyers lurking about in a basement, they also seemed to slip and slap up a second, altogether more interesting image of Myers in his…

The gory image above is our first clear look at Laurie Strode, once again played by actress Scout Taylor-Compton, in H2: Halloween 2. Nice chipped teeth, eh? As you'll recall, Strode is the (formerly) estranged sister of slasher Michael Myers, and according to horror visionaire Rob Zombie, "let's just say this is the best part…
