Great example of why an infinite number of remakes is just wrong.
Theres a classic argument between movie fans, how many remakes is too many?
You run into an original script like this one, and you realize, it very well might have not been made, had a small testicle-d producer opted instead for a 3rd Nutty professor or a 12th planet of the apes remake.
So if you liked this dark comedy, remember and vote for originality next time theres an argument about remake or not.
