Ugh, American Horror

Sep 30, 2010 21:51

Seriously. I love love love love horror films but can American filmmakers PLEASE stop remaking good foreign horror films already? Almost without exception they make a dumbed down shite version of an original brilliant piece of work and it's starting to seriously piss me off.

Now they've remade Let The Right One In. Seriously? SERIOUSLY? Why would you do this? This is a fantastically scary and just plain chilling vampire movie (that has a genuine realism in the plot/characterization) which is hard to achieve in the age of Twilight version vampires and Hollywood decides to remake it for Americans? Blerh. Oh yes. The director of Cloverfield is responsible. This will be great. (Sarcasm.)

If you have any interest in seeing Let Me In then please please please just rent Let The Right One In. I can guarantee it's going to be far superior. Just like Rec was to Quarantine and Into The Mirror was to Mirrors. Maybe if people stop going to see them they'll stop the remakes of good foreign horror and concentrate on attempting to make some original movies of their own that are halfway decent instead of ruining good ones in existence.

And here's the trailer for Let The Right One In.
