Inside Rob Zombie's Halloween DVD

Halloween Bloody Disgusting had a few moments with Rob Zombie the other day. In the interview, Zombie talked about what you can expect from the two-disc Halloween DVD that hits stores in mid-December. Throughout the chat, he's asked about which deleted scenes he put back into the movie.

Zombie says, "Yeah there’s tons of stuff that I deleted from the movie, because you don’t think it’s good enough to be in there, or you just don’t need it. The one thing about unrated cut is that you don’t want to shove a bunch of crap in there, so people watching the unrated cut say 'Wow this version is long and boring; it’s longer, but I didn’t put in anything I didn’t feel made the movie better. I didn’t just put in anything just to put it in there."

So what evil lurks in Halloween beyond what you've seen in the theater?

 

There are deleted scenes in the package, even an alternative ending. They're just not cut back into the film. Is there a documentary, one of those making-of features? "Sort of, we filmed an entire documentary, of which we didn’t have time to finish. But what we did was make a bunch of smaller documentaries. Some day when we have time we’ll cut the 2 hr documentary, but on the DVD it’s broken up: one about the actors, one about Michael Myers, one about the mask... there’s like 4 or 5 smaller documentaries. One’s just about the cinematography."

But wait. There's more: "
I packed the two discs with as much as they would accommodate. So there are all the deleted scenes, which there are quite a bit, interviews with all the actors, the documentaries, casting sessions, commentaries, blooper reels, basically everything we could find." What do you think? Are you going to pick up the DVD version of the flick?

I'll Netflix it first (do you see that I just made Netflix into an verb!) and if it's good, I will surely go out and purchase the two disc unrated directors cut. And by good I mean lots of gore and nudity and maybe some satan worshiping!

I kid I kid!

I will also Netflix it (it IS a verb! ha) before purchase. Mostly because I'm poor.

Micro that sounds like the start of a macro trend. Maybe you could add that to Wikipedia.
