This movie is a classic example of how utterly terrible most remakes of originals can be. From the decidedly WEAK acting of just about everyone cast in the film, to the outright stupid and directionless plot, this movie BLOWS CHUNKS! I had to pop in the DVD of the original John Carpenter version just to wash the filth of the remake out of my brain.

1 out of 5 stars, and I feel I've been violated having watched it.

Haven't watched it as of yet. But, I heard that the only worthy part is Tom Wellings shower scene. Thats gotta be bad. Go Superman, Go....away that is.

The original Carpenter version wasn't really much to write home about, either.

HOLY SHIT DID THIS MOVIE SUCK ASS!

I hate horror films, I jump at things that shouldn't scare you. This movie was so freaking dumb. No redeemable qualities at all.

1 out of five

I haven't seen it all of the way to the end......working at the theatre and only saw about 40%. Is it possible to DEDUCT stars from the director's next film? We are at a minus 2. Louis
