OPEN YOUR MINDS!!!!


I just watched it, and it wasn't that bad. Don't get me wrong it was not as good as the original, but It had it's hit's and misses. I thought that the way they told the story of how it all started was informative and made sense. The original's was rather vague. I think, the safe room in the remake was a good idea. I will admit the daylight trick,messing with the clocks, and the blood on the walls were a little far fetch. I thought the rust being able to hurt them was a good touch. I didn't buy that Edward's character, use to date Monica's character(that girl was hot) but I did appreciate the fact that it was someone like Edward, instead the standard 5'10, jock/overachiever type.One of the man thing in the original is that you had 2 unlikely heroes. In the original Susan killed the guy she was having sex with. I like the change the guy infected Susan, but the way they were having was rather awkward. Really the one big problem that they did was the lipstick scene. Sorry but they should not have tried to re-due that. The lipstick scene in the original was a classic, one of a kind thing, but them doing, and trying to make it more gruesome was a sad and pathetic attempt to TRY and out do the first one. I felt it was more of a retelling than a remake. I am tired of all this remake not having the same characters name. I know in this one there were 2, but what about the rest. Just because they remake something doesn't mean that it's automatically going to be a mistake. People need to stop being such closed minded pricks. Did they need to remake this movie? NO, but they did. and in all it was pretty decent. I'm defiantly watching it again next Hallow Eve.

I know I'm going to get crap for this, but here goes: it was very hard to read your post due to all of the blatant mistakes. The improper useage of apostrophes, commas, capitalization, spaces, etc. "Far fetched." "Used" - past tense. What does, "the man thing" mean? The 'main' thing?? Who's Susan? You mean Suzanne? "Redo." All of the excessive commas and run-ons are hurting my brain! It's "All Hallows Eve," and no one uses that term anymore. It's been slurred over the centuries to just 'Halloween.' Oy...

Closed minded pricks? This movie was visual crap. Wasn't that bad? It WAS!!

BTW, how did you think the story was told well? It was no better than most of the stock horror movies you have nowadays. Everything's explained to you, and the main characters repeat story bits over like the Scooby Doo gang. I swear, Monica Keena was the EXACT same character that she was in Freddy Vs Jason, especially the whole horrible "Freddy died with fire, and Jason died by water. How can we use that?". The bit about the demons being "too badass for hell" was just plain STUPID. Just your typical modern horror approach of spoon feeding people everything they have to know, leaving out any mystery(which was a great thing regarding the original).

Also, did you, like, copy and paste that wall of text from the other thread? LOL!

I didn't say the movie was good, I just said it wasn't that bad. As far as the story. The tell of how the demons came about, that what I meant as far as liking the new story. If I wanted mystery I'd play "Glue" I've watched to many horror films to be scared by them, now I just watch them for the gore, and the "what i would do if that was me" I know what you mean about Monica,but that doesn't change the fact that she's hot. Apparently know one told you so allow me. Nowadays you don't have to be talented to be an actor. You just have to be pretty, and have big boobs.
