As expected its no original but its a good story for newcomers

Rating: 7/10 (1 July 2013)

Its good, not as good as the original but nothing will be, especially a remake. But in the day and age of paranormal activity number 738 with the same story in a different house over and over, this is a lot better than that crap.
It didn't seem to have the humor of the original like when the hand comes off and runs about. That doesn't make it a bad movie as its a classic script and story which people who have not seen the original will love compared to today's horror crap.
I liked it but that may be because I reminisced about the original throughout, it didn't seem to have the same descriptive writing as the original, as it didn't really explain that the evil was outside, it seems to push that it was a zombie style must be barfed in by a zombie threat. The original was good as the suspense of outside was key. As well as the switch back to normal to try and trick the uninfected was keyed down a lot.
