More of a supercharged revamp than a remake, Rob Zombie’s take on John Carpenter’s Halloween expands the back story of masked killer Michael Myers in an attempt to examine the motivation for his first deadly attack, as well as some reasons for his longevity as a horror icon. Zombie’s Myers is a blank-eyed teen (played by Daeg Faerch) whose burgeoning mental problems are left unchecked in a horrific home environment; harassed by schoolmates, a randy sister, and his mother’s deadbeat boyfriend (William Forsythe, terrific as usual), Myers’ homicidal explosion seems inevitable, and intervention by Dr. Sam Loomis (Malcolm McDowell, who offers a fast-talking, hippiefied version of the Donald Pleasance character) does little to impede his development into a mute, unstoppable killing machine (Tyler Mane) bent on finishing off the only survivor of his family’s massacre–his sister, now grown into teenaged Laurie Strode (Scout Taylor-Compton).

(The books I publish are always proof read and corrected before publishing on Kindle! David Snode)This little book contains dozens of games aimed at teens and young adults. There’s old favorites such as “bobbing for apples”, and many, many more you’ve never heard of. They include love prediction games, treasure hunt games, and on and on. There are invitation ideas, decorating ideas, and several simple riddles with funny answers. There are also fun and funny penalties for failure at some of the games. Some of the book is an interesting peek into the early 1900’s, mentioning items such as “gas jets” used for lighting. Get this book and ask your grandparents or great grandparents about some of the games, and you’ll probably bring up some fond memories, while creating some of your own.
