It's a Horror Movie People!!!

Rating: 7/10 (13 March 2006)

I am not quite sure what people were expecting when they go to see a movie this like. So many people are complaining about the gore and violence, and I find that amazing. Before you go to see a horror movie, check IMDb and find out what everyone is saying! Or go on-line and find a trailer and watch it, but don't go to see a movie like this and then complain that it was violent and gory.
As far as the movie itself...let's just add it to the 'Unnecessary Remake Department.' The original was 50 times better.
This one had better violence and gore, and was more disturbing, which I actually like in a movie, but the original was better because of the implied depravity.
*****Possible Spoilers Ahead***** The thing I hated most about this movie is that they decided it had to carry a message: 'Government Nulcear Testing Was Bad!!!' In fact, one of the mutants even makes a speech about it! Does anyone else see how lame this is??? Why can't it just be a group of freaks out in the desert that decides to attack and torment other people who come along? Why does the director feel the need to neatly explain everything to us? Other than that, it was OK as horror movies go, just not necessary.
