I have only watched the 1981 original version at the moment and will at a latter date watch the remake as well.
It's another film where i think that you probably have to imagine the effect that it would have had because obviously we can do a lot more to make things more effective and gory. I'm not a huge horror fan (contrary to what you might think based on the recent posts) and this was once again one that i watched whilst multi-tasking.
I don't know any of the stars in this cast and so i cant really comment. I'm sure at some point I will come across another film with them all in and be able to compare them properly.
With films like this what you need is a great soundtrack and it had a good enough one. Just enough suspense to keep me flicking back to it and not really being able to concentrate on anything else properly.
I know that this movie was the start of a big movie franchise and that there are another two films to watch... I hope to watch them at some point and then i will post about them as well.
This is a very well made low-budget film. It looks like a low budget film but as we know in the film industry - money does not compensate true acting ability and you often find some truly talented actors in the smaller films.
I think that this film also served as inspiration for Cabin into the Woods but i haven't actually seen that film so i wouldn't know.
Signing off...
Hopefully no more horror films for a while...
