Well, it looks like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Pulp Fiction writer-director Quentin Tarantino loves Rob Zombie’s Halloween and Halloween II.
Tarantino reveals to Consequence of Sound: “I am a big fan of the Rob Zombie Halloweens. When I saw the first one, I didn’t like it at all. I didn’t like the aesthetic. I didn’t like everything that he added to it and then the last hour just becomes this fast forward remake of the first one. What the fuck is all this shit? Eight months later, I watched it on video… and I really liked them once I got all the preconceptions out of my head. That kid [Daeg Faerch] is really good. I mean, what did I think Rob Zombie was going to do with it? Do I want him to do something else? I like his Sam Peckinpah aesthetic. So, now that I didn’t have a bug up my ass about it, I was actually able to appreciate it. And again, it’s that kid who got me into it, and Danielle Harris is fantastic.”
And speaking of Harris, he adds: “She steals the second one if you asked me, but Brad Dourif is terrific in it. And then the second one is great because it completely can now go on its own.”
