Speaking exclusively to SciFiNow for a future issue, House Of 1,000 Corpses<\/em> and The Devils Rejects<\/em> director Rob Zombie<\/a> offered an update on the long mooted third film in his Halloween<\/em> reboot series.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think they are doing anything with Halloween<\/em> at the moment,” said Zombie. “That is the last thing that I heard – and I’m definitely not directing it if they ever do go ahead with a third movie.”<\/p>\n

Perhaps motivated by the drubbing he received for 2009’s Halloween 2<\/em><\/a>, Zombie remains defensive of the often criticised sequel.<\/p>\n

“I love that movie,” says Zombie. “I think it is a great movie. But I wish it had a different title. If it was called something else then people might have watched it and accepted it for what it was. Instead, because it was called Halloween 2<\/em>, people were saying ‘How can you do this<\/em> when it is supposed to be that<\/em>?’ Although as time has gone by some fans have told me that they like it, and that it is one of their favourites from the franchise.<\/p>\n

“I think because it was a Halloween<\/em> sequel people had a preconceived idea of what it was supposed to be.”<\/p>\n

Rob Zombie’s Lords Of Salem<\/em><\/a> is in cinemas 26 April 2013. Buy Halloween Uncut on DVD for £17.99<\/a> from Amazon<\/a>.co.uk.<\/strong><\/p>\n
