This was a terrific horror sequel to Zombie's remake misfire of Carpernter's 1978 classic. It was Zombie's own film, it was full of atmosphere, was dark and violent, had decent performances and showed his command and mastery of cinematic technique. For some reason, I just don't think most people got his art here and perhaps they couldn't acknowledge or even believe what they were seeing. They then dismiss it as a pos.
I really dislike Zombie's version of Halloween and entered into this remake with much trepidation. I was knocked for a six. It is my favorite Zombie film and the only minor mistake I feel he made, was changing the ending on the director's cut version. The director's cut is the best version, however, it would have been better with the theatrical cut ending. It's all subjective anyway, and while I don't get the backlash Zombie received for H2, I at least appreciate it.
