Michael Myers sad to see the way his franchise has been being treated since Halloween 2 (2009)![/caption]There is a great crime that is being perpetrated against horror movie fans all over the world! Not a literal crime, but one that never the less has had some negative impact... That is the crime of making crummy remakes of some of the most historically relevant and prolific horror movies of all time, and then making it seem as though, those series have a very unfortunate end!
Two great examples of this are the movies, 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' &, 'Friday The 13th'... Both had recently been remade, (A Nightmare On Elm Street in 2010, and Friday The 13th in 2009... And up until recently it was looking like those series were going to die in a way that is almost sacrilgeous... (After a crappy movie...))
Fortunately there has been rumors circulating around the internet that both movies were going to have their remake sequels (and chances at either redemption, or a proper end... An end with a bang, instead of a whimper!)
And now it looks like the morons in the studios are doing the same thing with the next, 'Halloween' sequel...

He may be down for the count right now, but Michael Myers hasn't taken a beating yet, that stopped him from terrorizing his home town on Halloween![/caption]I will admit that it probably was a major blow that Rob Zombie (Halloween) was not coming back to the remake series that he had helped bring in to the world... But the truth is, is that Halloween... (I would almost say more so then, 'A Nightmare On Elm Street', and, 'Friday The 13th'... If anything, just because Halloween has been around longer then these two, and was part of the inspiration for, 'Friday The 13th) is one series that should be adequately maintained, with a new movie coming out!
I will tell you why... Primarily it is because of the fans... I mean since the start of the new millennium, studios have been coming out with these remakes for these classic horror movies that started some of the most historically most important/prolific horror movies of all time, and the doing nothing to make up the damage...
As a fan of all of these series I will be honest and say that I am one of them (especially with Halloween), and I will be honest and say that in a studio system that has just about openly admitted at this point that it cares more about its revenue streams, then entertaining audiences, that it seems odd that they wouldn't try to keep these series that have proven to be box office successes alive (or at the least give them an end with some dignity...)

Either let Michael come back to life, or let him Rest in peace...[/caption]In the end all I am saying is, don't turn Halloween in to the next fiasco that trying to make sequels to the remakes, 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' &, 'Friday The 13th' have been... Because there are still a ton of us that would love to see what is up next with Michael Myers!
