Fulci had so much respect for this movie that he wanted to make his a kind of "second" film. Not really a sequel, but more like he couldn't compare his movie to Romero's.
lol Okay, makes sense. Yeah, Fulci wasn't much for tension and great dialog, but he sure more than made up for that with cool, nasty gore scenes. :)

*The Fog ('05)- 1.5/5...pretty damn horrible.
Maybe I might just wait for that to go to video. :)

There was some alright gore and Paris Hilton's poor acting ability didn't even really stand out because 1. she wasn't in it that much and 2. the rest of the cast wasn't that great either. The plot was similar to the original but it has definately been modeernized and given a Hollywood touch. It was right on par with what I expected which was some cheesy entertainment, but nothing spectacular.

C+
I dunno.... seems to me that "Hollywood touch" has ruined some otherwise promising movies that could've been good but ended up being complete garbage.
