Malcolm McDowell so 2 stars just like I did the first one: ** The nudity isn't as much, so maybe I was wrong, maybe he was going for satire in the first one and not snuff porn...or maybe he was told to tone it down with the rape and dead naked women...

...but there are still naked women that get murdered by the big scary male monster after committing a fundamentalist sin of one kind or another...

...so was it intended to be a satire of the genre or does it just get Zombie off? Still not sure.

And again, the atmosphere isn't there. The film has a feel to it that is almost grindhouse sleaze without being good enough to really achieve grindhouse sleaze.

It makes for an off putting after taste in your mouth.

And with all the nudity it still feels like its trying to be Friday the 13th more than it is a Halloween installment.

Yet again I ask "Why remake it?" And this time the answer I can come up with is, Zombie is a great musician...unfortunately he shouldn't quit his day job.
