Yeah, I saw the remake in theatres, and it was better than I thought it would be. But still, the original is so much better. I think the thing about the original, why it's so much better, is that the actors look like they'd be like that in real life. In the re'make, you recognize people from other movies, plus it's too clean compared to the original, as far as Film grain and the almost documenary feel. The original used natural lighting more so than the remake as well, adding to it's realism.
i loved it. in the movie theatre i was in people were laughing at the jokes and funny scenes but litterally pulling their hair out on the gross scenes. i hate the part when andy is being dragged down the stairs and his nails drag along the wall and come off of his fingers. the screech makes it even worse. but that is horror movies for ya. the special features and the foldout chaisaw and pictures are soo tight! they should have used the alternate ending. . . to keep people wondering.
Do you think there would be more room for another TCM film in the future? Or did the remake put an end to the series? I hope not. They need to make one that's really scary. Scarier than the re-make. When its in the country and these people start going missing. And the police finally investigate. But this is a differen family. Some crazy family who have heard of the Texas massacre in the papers and try to re-in act it.
