I saw most of the new Halloween and found it was an uninspiring pile of garbage, that even has the nerve to disregard all of the story aspects from the good sequels, like II, the ones with Laurie's niece, and even the crappy sequels released by Miramax. This is an all too common trend with horror movies in particular. All these producers are money grabbers. They think the name alone will draw suckers in, and I fall for it too.
Hollywood is officially dead.
