So much better than original version

Rating: Null/10 (27 May 2000)

Maybe I would have enjoyed the 50's version of this film, but, I saw this one first and it blew me away. The original was so disappointing after watching this remake that kept me on the edge of my seat. Only remake that I can think of, at the moment, that is better than the original. The special effects are good, but, the suspense is really what makes this so great. Number one Carpenter movie, in my book.
