It's no masterpiece, but it's a damn good thriller/horror (coming from someone that doesn't much care for horror, though it barely qualifies).<br /><br />I was not aware that del Toro was involved with the remake, but that's terrific news that fans of the orig will love.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401966517645370952.post-34342545582859709422009-08-11T02:27:23.591-07:002009-08-11T02:27:23.591-07:00Don’t do it! the original was brilliant.

It is very rare for them to be any good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401966517645370952.post-61816205264973039142009-08-06T06:51:49.643-07:002009-08-06T06:51:49.643-07:00Though the story confused me a bit but I really li...Though the story confused me a bit but I really like the creepy atmosphere in the film.
