Movie Review | Halloween II (Zombie, 2009)

This went down for me on this rewatch. I actually didn't get to this when it came out, mostly because I wasn't really going to see horror movies in theatres at that point and my horror fandom was mostly geared towards older movies (although the periodic free previews of the Scream Channel I took advantage of meant that I was getting a reasonably wide range of the genre's flavours beyond the obvious classics). And as a result I'd accepted the party line around the remake wave and Rob Zombie (neither were viewed with much warmth in the now defunct Rotten Tomatoes forums which I frequented at the time) and assumed it wasn't worth my time. So that when I did eventually watch it a few years later, once its reputation had started to build a little, I was pleasantly surprised that this had a much weirder style than one would have expected from a 2000s horror movie, had maybe something of an Italian influence in its incoherence, and that Zombie brought his own ideas to the material instead of offering warmed over slasher beats.

And I guess those things are still true, but I guess I gelled less to the combined effect this time around. On one hand, Zombie realizes his attempts to deconstruct and psychoanalyze Michael Myers in the preceding instalment were in vain (the best it came up with was that Myers grew up in a trailer park, which I assume has it's ups and downs but likely isn't justification for mass murder) and correcting by evoking Myers' mental state through narrative and visual incoherence makes some amount of sense. But on a narrative level, I find this too stop and start to really work as horror.

And on a visual level, the heavy grain and gloomy colour scheme he bathes much of this on I found pretty unpleasant to look at. I suppose he relied on a lot of grain in The Devil's Rejects as well, but there it cohered nicely with the warmer colours into a Kentucky Fried sheen that suited the grindhouse atmosphere nicely. (That's not blood and viscera, that's just ketchup and fries. This is making me hungry, time to go for some Mary Brown's.) Here, the visual texture reminds me of Slipknot, which is not a favourable comparison, and the fact that the movie does produce its share of striking images emphasizes how much worse the rest of it looks. Zombie is pulling a lot of his influences into it as he often does, but more of this plays like a straightforward take on the aesthetics he parodied with his Woolite commercial than I remembered. And the aggressive cutting takes some of the impact out of the violence.

Anyway, it sounds like I'm being really harsh on this, but I do still like this, just noticeably less than I used to. I will still go to bat for the performances, particularly Malcolm McDowell's slimy take on Loomis (his talkshow segment with Weird Al and Chris Hardwick is very funny) and Brad Dourif's warm, fatherly Sheriff Brackett. And I remember people being very hard on Scout Taylor-Compton, something I'm going to chalk up at least partially to the misogyny (there's a tendency to treat young actresses as a punching bag when people don't like a movie that was especially pronounced in those days). But I thought she was quite good in this, providing a nice, sympathetic centre to a movie that seems determined not to hold together.

3, 8, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22, 25, 27 for Isaac and Joshua. (Whoa, I have a lot!! My brain is rotating them around.)

one essay about the boys coming right up 👍

3 - isaac was a bit intimidated the first time he saw joshua, mostly because he thought joshua was way cooler than himself and he didn't want to say anything embarrassing (and a lil bit because joshua had an early growth spurt and was like a foot taller than him at the time lol). joshua thought isaac was just an annoying, trying-to-hard class clown until they properly talked for the first time. nowadays, they've discovered they have much more in common, and joshua's come to genuinely enjoy isaac's joking around ❤

8 - since they both grew up in the extremely edgy early 2000s, they both have a tendency to mainly communicate through joking insults. isaac has an easier time knowing when to be earnest than joshua, who even after his character development still kinda feels like expressing his emotions = showing weakness. sadly being a non-human entity does not make him immune to toxic masculinity 😔

9 - unshakable loyalty

10 - isaac is much more comfortable expressing his thoughts and feelings in an honest way than joshua, who will either talk around his problems, just scratch the surface of what's bothering him, or on his worst days, outright lie to avoid the conversation

11 - its interesting, because their dynamic tends to flip depending on the situation. in low-stress moments, isaac is the goofball while joshua acts as the straight man, whereas during crisis times, isaac will become the voice of reason while joshua defaults to self-sacrifice or self-destruction. there's also the way isaac tends to direct his anger or fear inward, while joshua will lash out

15 - they have a ton of trust in each other, especially following the events of 2009 for fairly obvious reasons. even though they're starting to bicker with each other more while staying with eli in toronto, their trust in each other is not the issue there

20 - for isaac, it's hearing joshua purr while awake for the first time, which he did following the first big bout of rain after moving to rochester. for joshua, it's sneaking into his first ever concert - a slipknot show during 2002 - with isaac.

21 - for isaac, it's joshua hitting him during their big falling out in the house. for joshua, it's isaac finding him after luce ripped his legs off.

22 - kind of obvious answer, but the whole journey to rochester after isaac pulled joshua out of the Nightmare Sand Pit

25 - they'd probably assume isaac is only hanging around joshua out of pity, seeing as most people still don't view cael devils in a favorable light (worth noting that most people in cdtaville also don't have nearly as negative a reaction to the cael as the red circle ppl either)

27 - they've pretty much already risked their lives for each other: from joshua trying to distract luce resulting in the leg yoinking, to isaac's search for joshua after he was kidnapped, to the whole blood magic in the church scene. and they might even do it again at some point but ssssshhhhhhshshshshh

OC Duo Ask Game

[ghost-in-the-hall]

time ran out on the Slipknot poll before i could decide which of the three options i was considering to vote for lol 😅

(the winner of the poll was one of them, and one of the others got no votes)

...while i'm here, i was wondering if you had any less known songs you reccommend giving a listen? this makes my third time being introduced to them, and i'm hoping it sticks for longer than the first two times lmao

Hello Anon! Don't worry about the poll results, all of them are gunna get published eventually I just needed help picking where to start! 😂😂 As far as songs, I can't tell you if they're lesser known ones or not, I'm sure at least some of them aren't, because I listen to most of their discography! But, as far as songs I personally recommend...

If you're into stuff with some really nasty drums!

Eyeless

Sulfur

The Blister Exists

Disasterpiece

Purity

(TBH, Joey's a legend, I'd argue he's one of the greatest drummers of all time, so I don't feel like any of their songs really miss when it comes to drums between him and percussion)

If you're looking for more guitar centered stuff

(sic) - super popular and super basic I know, but this song is a personal favorite of mine, there's a run around 1:38-1:50 that's particularly good in my opinion

Dead Memories

Gematria

Sulfur

Only One

Want something growly and screamy?

Eyeless (one of my personal favorite songs in general)

(sic) - particularly one specific live version where you can really hear Chris's backing vocals, I believe it was 2009? FUCKING CLEAN AND UGH he's so talented

Everything Ends

People = Shit

Scissors

Maybe something more melodic?

Duality

Killpop

Vermillion (has some particularly nice harmonies)

Unsainted

Before I Forget

(I would put Snuff but everyone knows that song)

Hopefully there's something in there you like! It also took me a few tries to get into their music and they very quickly became one of my favorite bands once I found stuff I liked! Thank you so much for the ask!! ❤️❤️❤️

[catts-world]

do any of my slipknot mutuals know the video where it's all of slipknot after a show with their masks off and they're eating and hanging around?? I think it's from abt 2008-2009 ish bc the main part I'm looking for is the interaction between paul and chris. It's so cute I want to save it to my phone but I cant find it for the life of me. They're wearing their red jumpsuits and if I can find a screengrab I'll grab it and put it here rq

Michael and Charlie as parents details with their two kids Millie and Gregory.

Millie:

Millie is the oldest child by seven years.

She is like Charlie in the way that she is amazed and obsessed with something but instead of robotics she’s instead obsessed with poetry.

Her favourite uncle is Sammy with her favourite aunt being Cassidy.

When she was younger Millie loved hearing stories from her parents and even when she got older she still loves hearing a good story told by her parents

Millie shares the same music taste as her parents that being a love for rock and metal.

As she got older Millie started having issues with Charlie as she found Charlie being too overprotective of her and one day while Michael was away on a business trip Millie lashed out at her mother which hurt Charlie for a while.

Millie did apologise to Charlie when Michael came back home and found about what happened. At first Millie didn’t want to but after Michael told her about Charlie’s past and how William stabbed her Millie understood why Charlie was so protective of her daughter.

She is very shy like her mother though she retains Michael’s dry and sassy sense of humour.

Millie has a girlfriend called Sarah and at first was nervous about coming out as bi to her parents but after some begging by Sarah she came out with her parents accepting her for who she is.

Millie shares the same music taste as Michael and Charlie being rock and metal. Millie was the one to introduce Slipknot to her family and the band became something the four of them would bond over

Before Millie left for College she asked Michael if they could get tickets in 2009 to go to the UK festival Download as they were going to the UK for a late birthday trip for Charlie. What happened was one of Millie’s best memories with her mother as when Slipknot played live it was the best experience of their life with Millie seeing Charlie cry from happiness.

Gregory:

Gregory shares more his traits with Michael than Charlie but he still has his mother’s shyness.

Gregory’s favourite uncle is Evan due to his nice nature and his favourite aunt is Elizabeth due to how Elizabeth is the only person apart from Charlie to get under Michael’s skin which is always fun to watch.

Gregory loves slightly lurking in the background and spying on his older sister.

Once Millie had come out as bi and started being more open with being Sarah around to their house Gregory would often find the perfect timing to catch his sister making out with her girlfriend and ruining their moment.

Much to Millie’s annoyance Sarah and Gregory are friendly to each other and would often work together to annoy her.

Gregory would often help Charlie work as she builds new animatronics and would take notes of how Charlie builds the robots.

Gregory is definitely more closer to Michael than Charlie but he would definitely say that Charlie is his favourite.

For Charlie’s birthday Gregory asked Michael if the two could build a little robot for Charlie with Michael agreeing. That robot ended up being Helpy.

When Gregory is older he gets a girlfriend called Beth and is very secretive about her. It isn’t until Millie stumbles on the two kissing does the family find out.
