Rob Zombie Returning for ‘Halloween 2′?

Posted December 1 by Kirk in Director Franchises Horror Sequels

In the last few weeks, the French directors behind ‘Inside’, Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo, parted ways once again with Dimension films on one of their horror properties.  First it was the remake of ‘Hellraiser’.  Then it was the followup to Rob Zombie’s version of ‘Halloween’.

Now comes the rumor, and it is a rumor, mind you, that Zombie could be sitting back down in the director’s chair for yet another ‘Halloween’.  An “insider”, take that for what you will, phoned an editor over at Shock Till You Drop and informed him that Zombie was stepping back in as director of the sequel.

With ‘Halloween 2′ expecting to start shooting in March, this puts Zombie’s long- gestating ‘Tyrannosaurus Rex’ project on the back burner.

What do you think?  Is Zombie the right choice to continue the new ‘Halloween’ franchise?  Are Maury and Bustillo ever going to follow up ‘Inside’ with another film?  Is all of this a highly-crafted ruse by John Carpenter to end the ‘Halloween’ franchise once and for all?  Let us know what you think below.
