Haven't seen it, but might give it a watch. In general, remakes of
classics fall far short and are rather pointless; e.g., "King Kong",
Invasions of the Body Snatchers", "The Thing", etc.; sometimes there
are exceptions, especially going from silent to talkie. I'm a big fan of
B&W so color as a determining criterion doesn't cut it with me; it sure
didn't help on the remakes of "Island of Lost Souls". - AH
