    I love the movie C.H.U.D .. I would be interested in seeing a remake of this, I think Zombie would do an interesting job.

    C.H.U.D isn't a gem or anything.. but really? a remake? That's a bit silly. While you're at it, Rob. Can you remake Ghoulies and Basketcase for us too? Any other 80's horror movie we might have missed renting at the local videostore?
    These quote basically sum up how I feel about all this.

    C.H.U.D. was one of the better non-mainstream monster flicks of the 80s, respected in many circles. Its sequal, Bud the C.H.U.D., umm...not as well liked but still it could have been sooo much worse.

    I could see a remake of this film, though the Zombie is definately not my first choice for captain's chair on this one. C.H.U.D., if remade, takes a certain feel to respect the first. The Z has a certain feel on films that is not C.H.U.D. like in the slightest...

    Well that means we wont be forced to watch the white trash version of C.H.U.D.
    Rob changed Halloween from a middle class suburban tale of horror, to a white trash gone wrong saga.

    Basically the same as his other flicks :2far:

    For most people it doesn't even seem like their opinion anymore, it seems like 1) hope on the bandwagon, most people hate it, so they should too, 2) an instinctual disliking of remakes, or 3) immediate disliking of it because they liked the original.

    I love it...this is one Zomboid flick I can honestly say I won't be seeing. Never saw the original C.H.U.D...so I don't really care. I won't see it because I know it's gonna be ZOMBIFIED, and no movie is good in that format.

    Chud is a nice movie to get your friends out in the movie game. It's got Daniel Stern and John Goodman out on it.

    Zombie is a decent director (HOKC is bad), he just needs to do something fresh or new thats good to impress me.

    There is nothing wrong with Rob Zombie as a director, not one thing. The problem is he has a unique approach to filming that doesn't mesh with every film. Worked well in his eariler work, films sort of meant for him. But remakes are tricky. He pulled off Halloween, but it was quite obvious that he took it in HIS fashion. C.H.U.D. wouldn't work in his method. Thats not an insult in the slightest, every director cannot direct every film well... simple fact.

    Everything is wrong with Zombie being a director. He sucks at film making. His movies are ridiculously bad. He is to America, what Uwe Bowl is to Germany.

    I couldnt agree more. Halloween remake filtered out any respect I may have had for rob as a filmmaker. (He still kicks ass on stage though)

    There you go. Thank God you only asked for 5, because that's all I got. That's probably all he's got too.
    House of 1000 Corpses sucked, I agree with you on that, but it paved the way for Rejects.

    Devil's Rejects was probably the most disturbing movie to come out that year (I think 2004), in which case it would be up against Hills Have Eyes and Saw. Saw, which you've probably noticed, wasn't as violent as it was hyped up to be. Really, the franchise didn't get any more violent than you're typical horror movie until the second one. It was rivaled by Hills Have Eyes (which is a better movie, depending on your taste, definitely scarier), but there was something about it that was more fucked up than anything else that came out that year. And he had this way of creating a gray area with his characters, getting you to hate them and sympathize for them at the same time. Also, the ending to Rejects is great.

    His Halloween remake did exactly what he wanted it to do - it came across bearing almost no resemblance at all to the original. The entire feel of it is completely different, the characters are different (I think it was Steelba who said he took it from a "suburban tale of horror" to a white trash saga - which is true, and he seems to have some fascination with white trash troglodytes, but it nonetheless worked well for him in making a movie that was totally his own [or as much as it could have been, considering the material wasn't his own]), it's just so far from Carpenter's there's really no room for comparison. As a horror movie, and as a film, the original is better by a long shot - but in terms of contemporary horror, what's scaring people today, the utilizing of modern directorial techniques, Halloween was great. Think about it, if Rob Zombie's Halloween was called "Ghost Face" or something, and was one of the 8 Films to Die For, don't you think you'd have much more appreciation for it?

    As for you thinking House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects aren't horror movies...okay...I really don't see what other catagories they fall into, but that's fine.

    And as for his music, okay, that really doesn't have much to do with this thread, but if you don't like it that's fine, it just means you may already have a bit of a biased view at his work because you don't like what he sings.

    "There you go. Thank God you only asked for 5, because that's all I got. That's probably all he's got too."
    What does that mean?

    HOKC is horror as in horrible.
    I categorize lots of movies under the horror genre. Thriller? Suspense? To sum it up I just call them horror movies.
