ROB ZOMBIE Rumored To Direct 'Halloween 9' - June 2, 2006
According to Fangoria.com, Rob Zombie is rumored to be in talks with Dimension Films about helming the ninth installment of the "Halloween" franchise. It is unclear as to whether he's aiming to do the oft-rumored "lost years" prequel or an original chapter of his own.

World Entertainment News Network reported last month that plans to make "Halloween: The Missing Years" were shelved when producer Moustapha Akkad died in last year's terrorist attacks in Jordan, but writer Jake Wade Wall has confirmed to MovieHole.net that the series is back on.

Wall told the site that the prequel will be set before the events of "Halloween 2: Halloween Resurrection", and will focus on the life of serial killer Michael Myers as a young man, before he was placed in a mental institution.

Wall said, "I've been hired three different times for it (the film)... It looks like it's finally set to go.

"I know that they're (studio executives) in the process of nailing down a really big director but I haven't been able to figure out who it is yet."

I LOVE THE "HALLOWEEN" SERIES EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN LACKING LATELY BUT ROB ZOMBIE WILL PROBABLY FUCK IT UP EVEN MORE. HE'LL PUT HIS WIFE IN THE LEAD ROLE. ....HE'LL PROBABLY MAKE HER MICHAEL MYERS.

III WAS COOL
IV WAS A GOOD COME BACK TO MYERS
V WAS STUPID WITH THE COMIC RELIEF COPS
VI WAS COOL WITH THER THORN

BUT THEY NEED TO STOP OR AT LEAST STOP WITH THE RAPPER TIE-INS. H20 BLOW WITH LL COOL JAY, RESURRECTION WAS "OKAY" BUT HAVING "BUSTA" BEAT UP MYERS WAS STUPID.

WHO'LL BE THE HIP HOPPER IN 9? KANYE WEST OR JA RULE. LET ME GUESS...CISCO AND HE BEATS UP MYERS WITH A THONG , THA, THONG THONG THONG".

My personal favorite of the franchise is the third installment, which of course had nothing to do with MM. Maybe I'm just biased toward it because I saw it in the theater when I was like 12.

This would be great. but please make it a sequel and not a prequel. Unless the movie changed all the facts it would be pretty boring watching a kid with a blank expression starring for 2 hours

Rob Zombie is on record saying he hates slasher films, so I'd be surprised if he actually decided to direct one.

How the hell is he going to do this? He's going on tour again w/ (goddess) Anthrax next month, he's doing El Superbeasto, which is supposed to be out next year, he's working on a script for a WESTERN, he's hosting a TV show for old movies, he's breaking in a new bassist, not to mention special appearances, autograph sessions, and hopefully go back into the studio SOMETIME --

How the flyin' is he going to do this?

And HALLOWEEN??? Do we really need another one??? I'm with Blizzard Beast on that one...like another Freddy or Jason.

oh, and:

"I LOVE THE "HALLOWEEN" SERIES EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN LACKING LATELY BUT ROB ZOMBIE WILL PROBABLY FUCK IT UP EVEN MORE. HE'LL PUT HIS WIFE IN THE LEAD ROLE. ....HE'LL PROBABLY MAKE HER MICHAEL MYERS."

LMAO!!! Yes, she will be Michael BEFORE the traumatic sex change...

Rob, I love you. You can do anything (like, maybe do something to make up for "Horses?") but, this is much. Thank goddess it's just a rumor.

'educated horses' has tanked sales wise(in fact, it reinforces my own theory that rob's sales decrease by 2/3's with each album) so maybe it is time for him to commit somewhere else. directing shitty horror movies for a pay check isn't a bad way to go.

Rob Zombie doesn't like slashers? on what grounds? as if he has such an unbelievably refined aesthetic sensibility!!!! hehehhee. just listen to the bullshit music he puts out. the dude is a bonafide junk peddler. he is good at what he does, but nothing he has done is in any way shape or form, 'real art'.

Horses tanked in sales due to "car wreck mentality." Everyone jumped out and bought it because it's Bobby. Then, when they brought it home, they called up their friends and said, "Uh...you're not gonna believe this," and it germinated like a Fabrege commercial.

That's why it sold thousands and now there's hundred sitting on "used CD" shelves.

I don't know what you consider "real art" -- art is merely a selfish manifestation of a piece of the human experience in a tangible medium. Where is Rob excluded?

He's an artist -- believe me.

How much further can you take "troubled minded psychopath goes around killing because he can/revenge?"

Now, if Rob was to direct a real Jack the Ripper movie -- now that we know who he was -- that would be the SHIT!!!

i love his movies so far, but im glad he's starting to do some outside the rejects/corpses series. it would be amazing for him to do a halloween one. i actually kinda liked the last one (or was it the 7th) where people were stuck in michael's house...but i think a zombie one would kick its ass.

Damn, can't believe I never heard that Moustapha Akkad was a victim of those terrorist attacks. That's sad...Halloween's always been my favorite horror series, going all the way back to high school. The man brought me much joy over the years. Joy and popcorn. RIP

Zombie's music is great. Movies are great as well...Music & Movies = Art. You dont see that...Go die. "House of 1000 Corpses" and "The Devil's Rejects" were HIS views. "Halloween" is a good movie series. I hope to see him follow through with this one. Man...you guys should seriously stop ragging on everyone. Rob Zombie is the shit...8507496 people agree.

Krueger is untouchable, and Jason is cool too. Halloween I & II were good, but I completely lost interest after that.

Freddy vs Jason 2 and an Elm Street prequel would kick ass, and then the legends could retire (which they probably will).

WE NEED A NEW HORROR MOVIE ANTI-HERO!!!

Following the sequence of events as told by the fucking previous sequels. The halloween franchise took a overall quality nose dive right after the first, ever since then its been a b-slasher fest at best, which is very entertaining in its own right. Halloween is one of the few horror franchises that just fuckin makes shit up, completly disregarding whats already gone on. And oh yea, Busta Rhymes said "Trick or Treat...Motherfucker" in the last shit installment. Maybe Zombies appreciation for the 70s horror era will help this tragically funny series.
