My wife and I were talking about this the other night. Talk about a movie that did NOT need to be remade.
I really liked the story but the execution of the original movie was kinda cheesy. I just saw the preview to this one. If they use modern effects and better acting than the former governor, this should be fantastic. The preview promises just that.
I can see one of my sci-fi bookshelves from where I am typing this on the first shelf alone are at least twelve excellent novels that have never been made into movies.
Why in God's good name does Hollywood need to keep remaking movies especially Sci-Fi.
