I haven't. I hadn't heard good things about it. But maybe now I'll go out and watch it.

The first one was always weird to me, that the dad just went nutso and they never tried to leave or anything. How do they handle that in this one? Aside from the scariness--which is great--does the story work well?

I just finished watching it, my point of view on it I think it was one of the best remakes of a movie. I say its well worth 20$ to buy it. It had me freaking out.

I still prefer the original myself but I do enjoy seeing someone elses take on the original idea.
Some people don't care for movie remakes, I don't mind them at all.
Most of the time they suck but I still give them a chance.

Same here...It isn't like a remake is trying to REPLACE the original...You don't have to choose one or the other.....We just end up getting 2 movies instead of 1, which is fine with me...If I really like a movie, I'm happy with as much of it as I can get :)

When i picked up this movie, I had my doubts about it. First, I re-watched the original and it was good but I found it to be slow at times.

I expected this movie to follow the original and it didnt which was a good thing. I kept making comparisons to the original and then I just stopped and enjoyed this re-make. This re-make added a lot of nice additions to the original such as more of an explanation to why... and of course, the special effects exceeded 1976 movie and even today's special effects. This movie had a lot of pop outs as well which were pretty good. Ryan Reynolds did a good acting job as well. Not the typical jokester character that he usually plays. I give it a 7.5 out of 10.

Dont compare every little part to the original but just enjoy it for a nice fun horror movie.
