[SIZE="3"]Thing is, Adrienne Barbaloo or not, I never liked the original. Maybe because my expectations were so high; but compared to Halloween it was a huge letdown. And after what I'd heard about the remake, well, maybe my expectations were so low that it seemed tolerable.[/SIZE]

I certainly understand that perspective. High expectations have ruined some movies for me and low expectations have made others look excellent.

But, really, what compares to Halloween?!?! Nada! Big Grin

Somehow I missed this post this morning and I'd just like to say that I'm glad I'm not the only one. I thought JC's version bit; not scary, gory or anything but boring. I rented it not that long ago to see if I might have been too immature to appreciate it when I first saw it, but no, still sucked. MOO(MY Opinion Only).
