Zombie is going for the unexpected
Danielle Harris is back. For Rob Zombie’s H2 (aka Halloween 2), that is. If you need evidence, scroll down for one of the first photos of the actress on the set with “Michael Myers” Tyler Mane. The pic comes courtesy of the Halloween Movies site.
IGN, meanwhile, has posted an early set report where Zombie goes into some detail talking about what he’s aiming for with this sequel. Here he is talking about some of the freedoms he’s having: “I just realized that the great thing about doing this one is, with the last one there was some sense of retaining some John Carpenter-ness about it all. And now it didn’t matter. This movie is 100 percent whatever I want to do. And we never discussed Halloween or Michael Myers or anything. In fact, every time we do something we go, ‘This doesn’t seem [like Halloween].’ We can do whatever we want and it’s very freeing. And I think it’s making for a much better movie because we’re not trying to do what anyone is expecting at all. In fact, we’re trying to do the exact opposite at all times – exactly what people aren’t expecting. You figure with a character like this, this time I really wanted to reinvent him. Because what is this? The 2,000th film, I mean with all the sequels and stuff? So that was the main thing.”
