I'm watching the full, unedited version of the 1971 film (Netflix must have shown the edited version) and I am wondering if anyone here has watched the 2008 mini series and how you rate it compared to the original. IMBD rates original at 7.2 and 2008 mini series as 6.2.
I have not seen it anywhere on streaming ... Amazon or Hulu. When I had NetFlix I never saw it there either. I did watch the goofy show called "The Strain" ... ugh! I thought the 1971 movie was pretty good and I had read the book. The movie was kind of cold and clinical, not a good story of characters, more of a trying keep up with the book. I imagine, or I would hope that the miniseries would have tried to improve on that.
Actually, the first episode of the Strain was pretty good, but I lost interest soon thereafter. I'm going to have to find the mini series for Andromeda Strain...
