chilling movies ever made---and the Jeff Bridges re-make totally missed the mark.
I can't think of ANY European film re-made very well by Hollywood. "Abre Los Ojos" was a very good film but "Vanilla Sky" with Tommy Cruise, even though it too starred Pene Cruz, was poor.
Remakes, pre and sequels, updates....Hollywood seems to suffer from a serious lack of imagination, i.e. writing talent.
