Halloween! For Free! Right Now! (Go Watch It!)
Like any true-blue horror geek with a few dollars to spend, I already own John Carpenter's original Halloween on DVD. (There are only about 43 different versions, most of 'em from that multiple-dip factory known as Anchor Bay.) But what if, say, you're a young horror nerdlet who doesn't have the expendable income with which to construct a fantastic DVD collection? What about those fans? Who will think of the children??Well, apparently Rob Zombie will. In preparation for his own adaptation of the October Classic, Zombie and MySpace have collaborated to offer you ... a free movie! Yes, that's right: Go pop some corn, turn off the lights and put your cellphone on mute, because you're invited to watch Halloween for FREE! Hooray!
OK, so the screen is really small and your little speakers might not deliver Carpenter's mega-slick score in flawless fashion, but I do believe I mentioned the word "FREE" a few times, so let's not whine about the details. (I wonder if they'll leave P.J. Soles' finest scene intact...)
[Thanks to good ol' JoBlo for the tip!]

Are you sure this is actually Rob Zombie? I don't think it is. I'm not even sure that it's legal. This guy "Zombie Lover" also has full videos of Black Christmas, Poltergeist, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Night of the Living Dead up on his page. Maybe MySpace has decided to turn a blind eye to piracy unless someone threatens legal action, similar to YouTube.

Hmm, good point. Let me do a little more digging. Obviously if is this is an illegal or unsanctioned presentation, we do NOT support such activities here at Cinematical.
Thanks.

This isnt Rob Zombie, but kudos to the guy for having sweet taste in movies nonetheless.

He probably should've done this on Halloween, as opposed to the Christmas season.

Ok... Is rob zombie really directing a remake of Halloween, because I for one do not wish to see a classic movie ruined by a no tallent hack. Hey, I saw his last to movies, they made me ill they were so bad. This guy needs to stick to singing his computer altered voiced songs and leave movies to the guys who can make a decent film.
