En Passant 3,721 Posted August 17 I didn't even know they'd remade it. Bloody Americans can't swallow anything that isn't made for the home market - there's nothing wrong with the original Edward Woodward/Christopher Lee one - that was one of the biggest shockers in a film when I was younger. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No. It looks like one of those bolt on scenes added for 'dramatic effect' that are just one of the reasons these remakes are absolutely..... 2 hours ago, Toast said: Count yourself lucky, the remake is dreadful. And no Toastie, I'll add it to the list of Hollywood revamps I'm not going to bother with, i.e. most of them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And no Toastie, I'll add it to the list of Hollywood revamps I'm not going to bother with, i.e. most of them. That explains it!. While I'm aware of this remake I have no desire to watch it. Same goes for The Italian Job - both 'iconic' (god, I hate that word) pieces of cinema from my youth, any remake will disappoint. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
