Halloween II is an upcoming 2009 American horror film written, directed, and produced by Rob Zombie. The film is a sequel to Zombie's 2007 remake of Halloween (1978). Halloween II will follow the aftermath of the events of the 2007 remake, particularly how they affected Laurie Strode. The film will see the return of lead cast members Malcolm McDowell, Scout Taylor-Compton, and Tyler Mane, who portrayed Dr. Loomis, Laurie Strode, and Michael Myers in the 2007 film, respectively.
Zombie originally passed on doing a sequel to his remake, feeling as though he had no energy left to make another Halloween film. Two-years later, after unsuccessful attempts to draft a script for a sequel, the Weinstein brothers, Malek Akkad, and Rob Zombie, who had a renewed interest in the film, secured a deal for the director to return. Zombie plans to focus on the connection between Laurie and Michael, and the idea that they both share similar psychological problems. Halloween II is scheduled for release on August 28, 2009.

hmmmmm I have seen the remake ..... a very well made one i might add, I would like to see what kind of spin Zombie will do. I'm just upset that Zombie fell into the Hollywood trappings and started with the remake s**t... even though he did a great job, Please sit down Rob and write some original stuff....

I like stories that give a reason... but then yet again. If you don't have a reason.... you want to search more and more, for which is very intriging. That search for WHY... the back story... the reason has always discovered me in it's lil trap. I do like that you saw Micheal as a child and saw how he became a killler.... a much more believable reason than in TCM the begining..now THAT......... IMHO was a joke.

A 1/5 for me. Hardly anything that happened here beyond the nightmare in the hospital, Michael's rampage through the staff in the driving rain, gave me any interest in what went on. Complete and utter nonsense in every way.

I gave the movie a zero because I thought it was a dud.
