This week, Richard and Angeles head back to Haddonfield for Rob Zombie’s brutal and divisive take on Halloween (2007)—a remake that trades suspense for rage and turns Michael Myers from a shadowy Shape into a broken boy with a family full of red flags.
We break the movie down scene by scene, discussing what works, what doesn’t, and how Zombie’s grindhouse grime reshapes the legacy of a slasher icon. It's a film that splits fans—and we’re ready to argue.
