Halloween Remake Movie Review/ Writing Stories

This blog was going to be a blog where I review, talk about something and have a DVD update, well, since I should have my monthly blog up in the next following days, I decided to not do the DVD update, also, I said in the next following days because these days, I can never give you guys a "specific" date when I'm going to have it up, because my last blog, the Grindhouse review was postponed four time, every time something get's in the way, also I'll try to make this blog sorta short.

I'll say from the beginning of the review, I never watched Carpenter's original Halloween, but I read about the movie so much to the point that..basically it seems like I watched it, but I havent.

anyway, This movie was made by a huge Horror fan, Rob Zombie, I watched a video on Youtube where he shows us his DVD collection and he say, he basically "buys anything Horror"

so this movie really is basically a fan-made movie with the intention to make a lot of money off it's title with a large funding, now I don't believe this movie is terrible, I think Its very medicore, which basically mean 5/10, it's not good nor is it bad.

Everything in this movie is medicore, The casting is medicore, I mean you have great actors like Malcolm McDowell and Danny Trejo, but the actresses who played the three victims of Myer were TERRIBLE, I know they were acting like they were teenagers but seriously, these girls cannot act.

Something I didn't like with this movie is the way it portrays Michael Myers, from what I read, and this is a complaint from people who watched the original, that Myer's character is supposed to be a normal kid, who just suddenly get a kitchen knife and starts stabbing his 16-year-old sister, but in this movie, Myers mom is a stripper, his sister treats him badly, and his stepdad or I think his mom's boyfriend keeps making fun of him, while he gets bullied on a regular basis in school.

and I think it's more scarier if this normal kid, just picks up a knife and starts stabbing people.

I would like to keep talking about the movie, but Im in a hurry right now, so basically, this movie has something which makes me hate some horror movies, they don't actually "scare" you, I mean it's just that blood that get's this movie an R rating, let's look at Jaws, it has a PG13 rating I think, and it would scare you a lot more than this movie, but I'll admit, I was captivated throughout the whole movie, so it wasn't terrible, but it had flaws, and now I hate the fact that I bought this movie or full-price, most of my DVD picks are usually half the price I payed for it, but I don't know, I won't waste my money next time.

5/10

I'm currently thinking about writing, I want to write Detective stories that are full of suspense like Sherlock Holmes, stories that are really scary like Goosebumps.

I'm still working on making up a detective story, that going to be my first thing to write, if I decide to write, but I had this idea, but I don't know if it makes sense, well I'll just tell you it's name, I came up with the title of the story, "A Frictionless World", basically in the story, something happens, and Friction doesn't exist, the thing is, I don't fully understand what Friction is.

I got the idea when I was in school in the Science period when we were studying friction, the teacher told us to imagine a world where friction doesn't exist and he gave us examples like, if Friction didn't exist, everything would be slippery, so that's when I got the idea.

but I don't know, I think I'll do better writing Detective stories, because if I want this idea to work, I'm gonna have to study Friction and understand it in many ways, whereas A detective story, I just have to come up with something captivating, full of suspense, not that I'm implying that that's easy.

also, I was wondering if any of you guys know where I can submit these stories when I write one, I was hoping there's a website where people read what you write and comment on it, also if I have it done soon, I'll show you guys the story and see what you think.
