Of course his version comes with way more blood and gore than the originals, but we all know that horror is not just the gruesome kills. What annoyed me most was Michael speaking. It seemded that the intention of RZ was to create a profile of Michael Myers, show the path he went to become a monster. The idea is nice, however, it does not fit to him. Michael Myers is the boogeyman, he is not just a human psychopath. Bullets can’t kill him so easily, hits can’t hurt him, he has incredible power without ever having trained. It is part of RZ’s movie to present Michael as supernatural, but taking that route also means to NOT show his development as a boy who was raised in the wrong family. No one becomes Michael Myers. So, in my version he does not speak at all, not a single word ever. And his silence always was scary. This alteration lead to lots and lots and even more cuts to make this possible without destroying the plot. Next thing I did not like was Michael’s mother. Although well acted, she is to nice for what she does and how she lives. A lot of her dialogue was deleted to make her more of the unsatisfied-wth-her-entire-life stripper mum that she is. Loomis as a child psychologist did not make to much of an impression on me, especially not in the first half, because his documentary movies don’t fit to what he does or says to Michael. I reduced this part to him really thinking that Michael is a psychopath. You will see that his acting is way more believable than in the original.´, especially inhis “these eyes” speech, which felt out of place, because the boy he was talkinn about was kind of sweet to him (aside from his previous killings that is). I also reduced some of the sex talk of the teenagers, one scene with Michael’s sister and one with Lory. Call me prude, but it felt totally over the top. There were a lot of other tweaks and cuts, for audio and video. Finally I really like my result, which runs 113 minutes.
