Texas Chainsaw Massacre
 

Is it true that they took out the hitchiker with the camera in the newer version. If they did then they pretty much screwed the movie up. And did anyone like the new Carrie. I thought that it was way too long. The old version was much better.

the hitchhiker is gone, replaced by a girl that *spoiler* blows her own head off (only good scene in the whole movie)

I remember seeing a horror show and they had interviewed the person who played Leatherface in the original. He said that they had asked him to play Leatherface in the newer version, but that they were not going to make it a quote "bloodbath" like the original. He declined. That and taking out the guy kind of ruins the movie.

I thought that taking out the hitchiker was a mistake, but it was a remake to each his own I guess. I havent seen the new Carrie but my understanding was that it was more true to the book than the old film.

It was truer to the book, but it was just so long. I couldn't sit threw it.

Of course it's not as good as the original, but it's almost there. Great remake IMO.

yes the remake was fuckin awesome how could u not like it???

shall I go into it?
