The sequel to his 2007 Halloween remake took in almost half of what the previous Halloween remake. It looks like Dimension/Weinsteins will go a different direction with Halloween 3 (or Halloween 3D).

To put the numbers out there: The first Rob Zombie Halloween remake made 27 Million on the opening weekend back in 2007. This sequel made 16 Million in it’s opening week.

Do not worry RobZom fans… Rob Zombie has his eyes set on the 1958 Jack H. Harris classic “The Blob”, which was already remade in 1988 by Chuck Russell. I am sure Zombie’s wife Sherri Moon-Zombie already has a role secured…

It is not secret that I am not a fan of Rob Zombie and his movies. Although I respect that fact that he uses classic horror figures in his movies (Ken Foree, Michael Berryman, etc) , I dislike his writing and directing abilities. I don’t think you need tons of tits and sex, shaky/jerky camera work and his wife in every scene to make a good horror flick.
