Rob Zombie’s Halloween 2 is an earnest picture; It brought depth to the mythos, and truly did nothing to trample on John Carpenter’s original version. There’s more character development which presents the opportunity to believe in the characters we care for.

To bring more insight to the films, I had the honor and pleasure of speaking with Diane and what she shared is absolute priceless knowledge. The fact that she has been acting for a very long time, and being the daughter in law of Clu Gulager, makes her even more legendary.

I love learning from the actors and actresses that I talk to; so much to hear about what happens on set and sharing the behind-the-scenes secrets. Me loving both films: The Feast Trilogy and Rob Zombie’s Halloween II – we can learn a lot about someone. Diane has been there; she has raised the bar. No one can play the Biker Queen like Diane and certainly there are only a few that can be at the same level as her.

For all that know me, the Halloween Franchise is my favorite, and Michael Myers is someone who I have come to love over the past two decades or so. Halloween 2018 and Halloween Kills gives us what I can only describe as the ultimate Michael Myers experience and both films deliver an emotional punch that too many of the films in this franchise have lacked. With that being said, please give a very warm welcome to Carmela McNeal.

I sat down with South Philly’s own Carmela McNeal and we both talked about her role in both Halloween movies. And from what she had to say is pure gold and priceless insight about her character and the both films.

Such a wonderful and gifted actress; I wish that she could have continued in Halloween Ends, but it is what it is. She still made her mark as Vanessa and she is a part of a magnificent franchise.
