Craven appoved remake

Rating: 9/10 (23 August 2007)

Wes Craven approved this remake.. what i find interesting is they shot this in Morocco. As a fan of the original i didn't think that a remake would be able to beat a Wes Craven original masterpiece, now i'm not saying that this one does yet.... that's up for review whenever i get around to watching the both at the same time on two different screens, now i don't believe this is a shot for shot remake, like psycho, or last man standing, but same idea basically, but what i really like about this one is that they have the nuclear testing village, something that wasn't there in the first one,, the idea that the U.S. Government bombed the crap out of that area. and then the mutants fled into the mines,, and then nobody cared about them,, well that's pretty original , and i admired that part of the movie very well, there is a lot of blood and guts in this movie , as you would expect, i love the camera angles in this also, especially where Big Bob is hanging from the tree about to be burned,, ala "Burning Man festival". all in all i don't have any complaints really about this movie at all,, it was an experience that Wes is prould of, as he stated on the DVD special features.It wasn't perfect, but pretty darn close.
