Great Fun!!
This is one of my favorite horror films ever. I like this remake just a little more than the original. The reason I like this one more is because of Patricia Tallman's character. She doesn't whine the whole time as the lead female did in the original. She's right alongside Tony Todd's character kicking Zombie[s]! That's the other reason I like this film better. Tony Todd. A better lead could not have been casted! He does a wonderful job.As far as just how scary this movie is, I think the original was a little scarier. The reason I think this is because I believe that the dreadful feeling and sense of helplessness was captured better in black and white. Don't get me wrong though, as this remake does offer up many scares.One reason I think this is such a classic is that it's completely original. Seven strangers boarded up in an old farm house, while zombies are all around, trying to get in and eat them. I can't think of many situations that could be more terrifying! Great horror film.
