A lengthy review on why H2 sucks ass

I actually was looking forward to seeing this movie because I didn't think that Rob Zombie's 2007 Halloween remake was half bad, but after sitting through this, I realized that I probably should have went to see the new Final Destination. This movie was 15 bucks not well spent.
I understand that this was supposed to Rob Zombie's "vision" on the Halloween series, and that is correct. John Carpenter's Halloween is long gone. With this film, Rob Zombie totally destroyed the whole Halloween franchise.
The acting was terrible, with the minor exception of Sherriff Brackets character. it seemed as if all of Lauries lines are shrieks and screams and "fuck yous", and the other cast members aren't much better than that. Dr. Loomis isn't even Dr. Loomis anymore. In my opinion, this movie didn't need him. Zombie turned Dr. Loomis into a complete asshole who could really care less about Michael Myers and his victims. He had no impact on the plot whatsoever.
This movie is so predictable. You know whats going to happen about 5 minutes before it happens, and the little visions that Michael sees throughout the movie are really pointless. The only reason for those (I think) is to continue the series.
All in all there is nothing about this movie that I like. The kills: are nothing that JC's Micheal Myers would ever do, stabbing his victims over 20 times, curb-stomping,even cutting someones head off with a glass shard, even going so dar as to making Michael a god damn canable.(If you've seen this movie you'll know what I mean) There's just so many things that are totaly unnecessary for a Halloween film, you'll have to watch to understand, and the worst thing in this movie by far is the ending. The ending totaly destroyed the Halloween franchise. I don't know where any filmaker can take this franchise now. Regardless, I will not waste my time and money on it.
As a Halloween fan, I am quite dissapointed. Rob Zombie has ruined the Halloween franchise in a little less than an hour and a half.
All I have to say now is: FUCK OFF ROB ZOMBIE!!
