Not as scary as the original (obviously), maybe scarier than the remake. I wasn't too optimistic to begin with but the film definitely improves as it progresses. The gratuitous shots of one girl's ass helped a lot lol It is very gory indeed & a few parts made me jump but nothing truly terrifying (I think Alan might disagree, he covered his eyes a few times lol). The film's too slick to fuck with your head which the original managed to do to me a bit. Possibly the best thing about the film was R Lee Ermey. He's always good entertainment & he provided a few laughs which certainly weren't there in the original. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, especially for £5.70, but it might be worth renting on DVD when it comes out if you like trashy horror movies. At least the acting is an improvement on the original which isn't saying much hehe.stoogyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03681933705519454521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18360914.post-1161473643129486782006-10-21T23:34:00.000+00:002006-10-21T23:34:00.000+00:00Well "anonymous", you haven't actually given any e...Well "anonymous", you haven't actually given any evidence to support your claim so maybe you should.

I actually thought it was pretty good although not as scary as the original. The original isn't a film I'm in a hurry to see again but the remake is more palatable & not such a headfuck lolstoogyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03681933705519454521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18360914.post-1160977808316725062006-10-16T05:50:00.000+00:002006-10-16T05:50:00.000+00:00@Anonymous.

I do not regard it as appropriate for this site to discuss the rights and wrongs of any particular genre but rather to recommend movies within each genre. If you want to see a horror/rom-com/kids flick - which should you see?

It's one of the odd things of modern life that pornography is prohibited but chain saw massacres are considered entertainment. A fortiori in America. Having a hard core porn flick in your high street cinema (not something I'd recommend, mind you) strikes me as much less perverted than this gore, or Saw, etc. Truly f****d up, this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
